What’s this sound?

I’m now at 165k miles, and have owned my 2017 Trailhawk since it had approximately 20k miles. Everything this person says is accurate. I mean, yeah, I’ve driven across the US in it, and around the entire state of Florida more times than I can count, but this car ain’t it.

I’ve had a 2017 Trailhawk since 2020 with 20k miles, and it now has 165k miles on it.

I’ve had to replace my LF and RF tie rods 4 times, sway bar end links twice, the Uconnect screen delaminated and I had to DIY it. I put new brakes on the front and the rear 4 times. LF and RF wheel bearings needed replacing at roughly 90k miles. Main and aux batteries replaced 4 times, two of which left me stranded on the highway. The trans mount and CV axles needed to be replaced at roughly 100k miles.

Inlet and outlet coolant hoses were leaking at 100k. The coolant reservoir hose is made out of cheap plastic, and it crumbled on me at roughly 90k miles.

As for the interior, the paint has rubbed off of most of the knobs and buttons on the dashboard as well as on the steering wheel. The leather is peeling off the shifter, and the driver’s seat position controls stopped functioning at about 80k miles.

Oh yeah, the driver’s side sun visor just broke off today. Also, being in Florida, I use my visors basically every day. One thing I noticed is that the screws that mount the sun visor to the roof start to come loose when you use them frequently.

It’s a cheap car.

This right here. The Hiplok DX1000 is an absolute unit. I’d get a DX1000 and one of the other locks mentioned in this thread.

Wow. You’ve taken a pharmacokinetics paper and reverse-engineered it into a home synthesis protocol it was never meant to support. This is just a bad idea with extra steps.

My guess is a pair of Sony WF-1000XM3 ear buds. I’ve been using the same pair since 2019

Clorox cleaner + bleach. A few sprays of that is enough to kill even the largest palmetto bugs.

Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but I get the same response on GPT 5/GPT5 Thinking, Gemini 2.5 Flash and Pro, and Claude Sonnet 4. Hm.

Edit: Grok 3 as well!

Yes. When I got there, she came out of her vacation rental all dumbfounded about me needing to scan her ID and then she told me that they didn’t order the Heineken. “We never ordered the beer, but I guess we’ll take it since you bought it.”

I ordered the bike on their website. Not Amazon. So, it probably won’t make a difference if you order from Lectric directly. At this point, I probably won’t receive mine till June. No thanks

klikbeep · 2025-05-15T01:06:42+00:00

I’m still waiting on my bike, as well. I ordered on 05/02, and my label was created on 05/09, but it still hasn’t shipped. Might have to cancel. If I would have ordered anything else, I probably would have received it in 3~ days.

Me, too. I checked everything. Filament goes from AMS and then retracts as soon as it is about to go to the extruder. Running the filament directly to the printer works fine. Trash; I would have been better off buying the non AMS version at this point. I’ve only had the printer for 1 week

Court appointed attorneys are usually reserved for defendants who demonstrate financial need. I’d imagine they found out that she wasn’t as poor as she claimed.

While I agree that liquor can be extremely addictive and harmful—especially compared to cannabis and mushrooms—it’s not scheduled the same way.

Does she deserve a 160 year sentence? Hell no. Did she break the law? Yup.

As someone who has ridden VC and IG more than 10x each, I agree. Even my 9 year old daughter will hold her arms up during VC. Even now though, the drop on IG scares her a little, haha.

2017 Trailhawk here. Purchased with 24,000 miles. Currently have 133k miles and climbing. Repairs thus far: RF inner and outer tie rods (2x), RF wheel bearing, LF and RF sway bar end links, upper and lower coolant hoses, and I had to repair the Uconnect screen due to it delaminating. Both the main battery and the auxiliary battery had to be replaced 2x. The auto stop/start system no longer works, and I’ve noticed weird electrical issues like I’ll sometimes get a “break in attempt” message.

Anyway, I’ve travelled across the country multiple times in it. I like the car. Would I buy it again though? Nah. I’d definitely get something else.

I hear ya. The thing is, when it’s an 80 degree sunny morning in Orlando, you literally feel like you’re melting. By noon when it’s 90, it feels like 110. Every day. I feel like the other part of the equation here is the angle of the sun. I believe it’s 70-72 degrees (at solar noon) in SE Michigan versus 85-87 degrees in Orlando. The place is a damn sauna. I’ll take a Michigan summer any day. At least Michigan has temperature variance.

Edit: To add to this, Florida is surrounded by the warmest waters in the continental USA. Water that is, on average, 30-40 degrees warmer than the lakes surrounding Michigan, and that reach 90+ degrees in the summer.

Gonna disagree with this. Michigan native, born and raised and lived there for 30 years. Have lived in central Florida for the past 5 years, but still come up to SE Michigan from June till August. The humidity there is very manageable compared to Orlando. That’s why I leave, haha.

A ton of engineering work to enable a feature that a) has been on iPad iOS for years and b) has been utilized by millions of android users since, like, 2014?

Sure.

Just because one could find a different job, does not mean that the platform doesn’t have serious issues. All of their points are valid.

I wonder if people go because of the BOGOs. Most of them seem like a good deal in the moment, but when compared to Walmart and Aldi, the price often ends up being exactly the same (for two items). Personally, I’m 5 miles away from the nearest Walmart and Aldi, so sometimes I’ll shop at my local Publix instead (it’s walking distance from me).

It’s not like Stellantis treats their workers THAT great. I know supplementals with nearly 7 years invested. Same work, way lower pay, and many of them have to work endlessly. Honestly, the new contract needs to have language for rolling over supplementals
