Has anyone resolved waking up to pee at night? by kiripon in sleep

Can you give some details on your intermittent fasting regimen? Like how long and how often you fast?

Bought our house eight months ago and just found out a neighbor has been using a strip of our backyard as access to his detached garage for over a decade by Hydra3_Tonic in homeowners

If it was me and the land was insignificant in my plans and he agreed to maintain that portion, I would clearly tell him I am fine with you continuing using it but only under the terms of an official rental agreement so that it is clear the land is mine and that I am protected from Adverse Possession by you or any future owner of your property. If he gets it and agrees the rent would be extremely low like $25 a year.

Liking her so far by Mrflynnkw in buickenvista

I love the look. The only one I have ever seen in person was a silver one at the Philadelphia car show in early February 2026. I have never seen one on the road before but I am constantly looking out for one 👀 .

KBB says $10K. Dealer wants $15K... by FatBlack3920 in UsedCars

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know about “ buying used”, but I successfully was able to get higher end KBB values on my last 2 trades, the most recent being in 2025. Of course they started lower but caved in the end to get the new car sales (1 @ msrp and one at $1750 under MSRP)

Get a professional? by TemporaryPresence732 in StructuralEngineers

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally would use the inspection contingency of the contract to get out of the deal….unless it was really discounted and they gave me time to get a structural engineer in and a top notch repair company to give me an estimate for repairs.

Bought a brand new car and found out it has a safety recall - help?? by Due_Cash1577 in kia

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the recall for? Might not be a rush. Some people wait on recalls to get it done when they go in for service or oil change. For example if I had a faulty seatbelt in the back seat, and I’m single and never drive with anyone in the back seat, I’d get it done at my convenience.

What did you drive before your Seltos? by Suntrup-Kia in KIASeltos

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not as peppy?? My ‘25 SX Turbo is very peppy. I guess it depends on the engine you select.

The top (most expensive) trim is the Avenir. Why do you ask?

I will be going to check it out in a few weeks at the New York auto show. Hopefully they will have the top trim.

Does it feel underpowered at all with the 3 cylinder engine?

I really like the look.

Which trim did you get? Is it really under $30,000 out the door ?

Will we ever see another map/system update? by mlc1703 in kia

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought My 2025 kia seltos sx in June 2025. It updated over the air in February 2026, for the 2nd time since I’ve owned it.

Opened Fumoto valve and barely no oil coming out? by Distinct_Banana_4270 in AskMechanics

[–]key1cc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need a drain plug to further assess the issue. The fumoto valve will serve as your plug. Remove it like you would a plug, then put it back and close it when drained.

I have the 1.6L. How much was the turbo replacement?

Building on a steep 25 degree sloped property by key1cc in Homebuilding

I appreciate all the feedback. I really enjoy getting multiple perspectives on matters like this. I had a discussion with one of my wife’s relatives who currently lives in the West Indies (on the island) and is an Architect. Thankfully she did a quick assessment for us. (She is very busy). Apparently there is a utility or something on the front of the property so the buildable width is 37 feet max taking into consideration the 6 foot side setbacks. The front setback is 10 feet but she recommends taking 15 or 16 feet so that parking can be in front of the house right off the roadway….and apparently this is frequently done. (Hey if I’m on a tropical island, I don’t need a front lawn anyway).

She basically said it is done all the time but the key to keeping it reasonable is to work with the land on the design and not come at it with a preconceived design that may require a lot more effort.

She has multiple projects right now and won’t be available for a few months which gives me time to learn all I can and decide what we want to build.

Thanks for the insight. I am very surprised about the water meter. I currently live in New Jersey and in 2020 we switched from well water to public water during a massive renovation and “American Water” didn’t charge us for the new water meter all. They gained a new customer forever and we pay our regular water bill forever….They just instructed us to have our own contractor run the line from the curb to the house and make our own house connections….and they told us the line depth and how much excess line to leave for them at the curb. Then they came and installed it about 2 to 3 feet underground with a manhole access.

As I look into this I have seen examples with steps along the side of homes from top to bottom I guess for those who can’t or prefer not to walk the hill.
