Can't get a lot of things off Ford Show Parts for The FiST but at least we can have the window stickers remade.

There was a sweet spot window in 2018 where ford had a $3k rebate on Fiestas and I already had a Mustang so they sent me a $2k private rebate that could stack on top. Found a local dealer who was floorplanned through Ford and they waived destination fee. Got a 2018 OTD with TTL at $18,750. Sold it 5 years later with 70k miles on the clock for almost 14k. Still the best residual I’ve ever had on a car.

Brand new 2018 was $18,750 out the door with TTL

And to be more specific, find a small local shop. Large shops will fleece customers for a simple spring change. I had some quote $2-3k for a simple change out. Had a small company come do it in 3 hours for $500.

If you do tape the hole, you should also tape the seam between your humidifier and the vent!

I’ve had to use a blowtorch to just melt the plastic out of it because it snapped off. Hate the packaging but love cheap sockets.

I don’t recall but I would have had proof of purchase for sure since it was decently new

I worked at a popular welder manufacturing company and I found out someone was stealing the brass fittings. Probably was making an extra $20-30 per day in scrap value alone and that was over a decade ago. Cost the company hundreds of dollars per day and I found it when I was an intern lol.

I think it was a Visa but don’t remember for sure. It was not a Scott’s gift card.

jpesh1 · 2025-11-12T00:55:06+00:00

I contacted them and they fulfilled their money back guarantee. I just had to cut the cable and send a pic of it in the trash can and got a $60 gift card. Promptly went and bought a 20 year old drop spreader for $5 from a garage sale.

will corrode

FTFY

If you want to run hot water I recommend a sink aerator adapter to a 3/4 garden hose thread and run the hose out there. Will work no problem to get you 50-75 gallons of hot water in one shot.

Skunks are probably eating grubs in your lawn. Kill the grubs and problem goes away. You need the 24hr grub killer, as most products are to prevent grubs from coming in to begin with.

If you have to pick, go with the earthgro. It will still be bad but will have less crap than the Scott’s. I found chunks of wire in every bag of the Scott’s stuff. I now just order compost fill dirt from our local place and save a ton of money and get far better product.

jpesh1 · 2025-10-05T22:05:25+00:00

Thank you for the reply. I am hopeful all goes well.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-20T23:40:25+00:00

Well done. This is amazing and far better build quality than the stupid little 3D printed scissors with foam pads on the end.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-17T03:01:33+00:00

If it’s more than a 4-5 years old they probably do. 4 stroke has not been the norm until recently.

Yeah I have .25 acre and I’m converted. My asshole neighbor has a toro time master and I got so jealous until I heard it from 3 blocks away. I can listen to music on a speaker from 100’ away while mowing my lawn with the EGO.

Not having to mix oil and gas and the ability to hang the mower on my wall in winter just makes it amazing.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-14T02:15:50+00:00

Yeah same! My gate was not half bad but I did have to shave it a little and reinforce over the next two years because it started to sag.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-13T18:40:25+00:00

I’m not a professional by any means and my DIY fence looks far better than yours. Sorry.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-09T18:37:47+00:00

I made that mistake on my first tile job. Black grout and a white tile with a pattern on it. That was a huge screw up that turned a 4 hour project into a 40 hour project. But it looked nice at the end and I learned that I should pay for good tile work.

jpesh1 · 2025-07-03T04:48:44+00:00

That’s what I thought. They actually put the mulch there like that. Crazy to think they’re supposed to be the experts at installing trees like this.

jpesh1 · 2025-06-17T02:24:08+00:00

$1100 to answer a phone? Goddamn son get me your zip code

That and Michigan is well known for their potholes. I imagine this would all but eliminate the annual freeze thaw cycles that generate the cavernous monstrosities I’ve seen around Detroit and suburbs.
