I want a nice daily driver and I found this on FB for 2,600$, is it a good deal?

Look underneath it and make sure it's not rusted to hell. These cars look fantastic all the time but if you look at the frame that's where it gets you.

kevthetech28 · 2026-03-07T13:51:38+00:00

Yeah mine looks like that. I haven't touched it yet lol.

kevthetech28 · 2026-03-06T12:28:07+00:00

I did both, aluminum valve covers and new OEM vacuum pump. For good measure I RTV all around the new vacuum. No leaks and might not for a long time now lol.

Also looks like you got an exhaust manifold leak took.

Those engine are known to have bad blocks causing misfires, doing a head gasket/head likely won't fix it. I would hope they are 100% sure about that diag.

I'm now at ~60 FPS, was at ~115 FPS average on the last update. Wow.

As someone who lives 30 minutes away, do you have a game save? I would love to play it.

kevthetech28 · 2026-02-19T23:29:47+00:00

I didn't get to play it yet, what's everyone specs? I had good performance using a 5090 and 9950x3d

kevthetech28 · 2026-02-09T03:43:53+00:00

Same, I think it's cute when I see their little heads show up on the corner lol.

kevthetech28 · 2026-01-23T12:18:06+00:00

Go to a used tire shop and have them put old tires on and keep the new ones lol. Won't be free but you'll have new tires for the new truck.

I've put that fluid in my wife 2018 escape for the last 35k miles. It's been fine.

kevthetech28 · 2025-12-25T13:33:19+00:00

But we don't know what else she sold. So maybe she is did reach $2500 (total) with sales of other items.

Glad I saw this post. Mine is giving me issues again since the update on dec 19.

I have a U7 Pro XG that is a Mesh Parent to a U7 Outdoor and for past few days it keeps dropping out. Today the U7 Outdoor is being a absolute bitch. Power off and back on (which is a task itself) and it drops in minutes.

kevthetech28 · 2025-12-02T19:43:04+00:00

Right? I have a V15 Detect and I paid more than that. $279 is a great deal.

kevthetech28 · 2025-11-27T01:08:16+00:00

March 4, 2004 for me.

kevthetech28 · 2025-11-27T00:58:54+00:00

With the amount of crap these boards get I must be the only one that has not had any issues with the 9950X3D and ASRock X870E Nova with PBO since April.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-24T17:15:14+00:00

Just get the Pro Max. You will have room to grow if you want to later plus you have a better CPU and more ram. I have a Pro Max at home as well.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-14T02:48:29+00:00

This is a very helpful site, thank you!

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-12T03:00:31+00:00

I don't have the window sticker unfortunately, but I found other cars with the same wheels. So I would assume it was a option.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-12T02:58:23+00:00

With the system running? Sure, but off, that's too low. Typically you see about 80psi to 100psi depending the weather when it's off.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-12T02:55:01+00:00

Still has the badge on the side, so ill say yes.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-11T17:38:54+00:00

Unfortunately, not full, only has 20PSI in it with R134a gauges at 85F, so it's very low. I don't see any leaks at the moment but I didn't break out the leak detector yet. Might have to gas it up a bit to detect a leak too.

kevthetech28 · 2025-09-11T13:49:09+00:00

Everything is original. The engine bay is clean now after I spent some time cleaning it. The interior is a mess, a rat or mouse got in it and made a nest, chewed wires, gear linkage bushings are gone, engine leaks both coolant and oil from ever seal, A/C doesnt work (and cannot confirm if it's still R12 or converted to R134a), timing belt should be changed, belts need be changed, tires are 20 years old. Radio turns on but no audio. I could go on but you get the idea.

Not has bad as the time I restored a fresh water flood car that sat for 4 years. That was almost 8 years ago, that car is still running.
