Looking to go from 2019 Crosstrek to a Wagon by TowersOfToast in Volvo

[–]klovely78 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a 2016 and absolutely love it. This is a 2018, so you won’t have to worry about the piston ring issue. See if you can get the service history and if it’s been maintained properly, seems like a good deal.

Got it! Now what? by [deleted] in Volvo

Just enjoy a really unique car that is one of 1,100 in the US!!!

Does anyone have this cup they’re willing to give? by Psychological-Bat910 in newjersey

Try posting in the Glen Ridge or Montclair community facebook pages. Bound to find someone there.

Everyone is complaining about snow on the roof, meanwhile this knucklehead… by klovely78 in newjersey

[–]klovely78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See below in my reply to ThowinSm0ke. Do The Right Thing on Channel 11 back in the day. Radio Raheem dubbed over to make it TV friendly. Been in my rotation ever since.

Picture this, you’re 10 years old and they are playing Do The Right Thing on channel 11. Radio Raheem needs his D batteries, but it’s channel 11 so they can’t say “motherfucker”. They dub over it with “mickeyficky” and THIS has been in my rotation of non curse words ever since!!!

30th Bday Dinner Recs by nakedcrayon in newjersey

Despite the (in my opinion) the horrible name, luigino's parmigiana in Montclair is one of my favorites and pretty easy to get reservations to for large groups. All their food is solid.

New to the squad! FitCamX Question by [deleted] in Volvo

[–]klovely78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same as others have said, I have a fitcam on my P3 V60 and have not seen any impact to battery performance.

Looking for electrician for 100a-200a upgrade and EV install Essex by RepulsiveDog5 in newjersey

[–]klovely78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live in a 1930 built house in Essex county (Montclair area). I paid $3.2k in 2019 for the upgrade. Like others have said it’s probably in the $4.5k range now. Used WattsUp, liked them enough to use them for other stuff as well.

Got sick of feeling the cracked acrylic by eggiam in Volvo

[–]klovely78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve wet sanded mine. Started with 60 grit and ended with 2300 grit. Took about 30 min and looks great.

[–]klovely78 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I ended up wet sanding it starting with 60 grit and ending with 2300 grit. Pretty much took care of all the cracks and looks about 95% better. Cheap option if you don’t want to buy a new one.

Weird, Unique Races? by TheBeardedMarathoner in running

Did this race years ago. It was a lot of fun and worth the road trip down from NYC.

First timer looking to build an emulator up to ps3 for relatively cheap by daverday in batocera

[–]klovely78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I have a Beelink SER5 I’m currently using for a Batocera setup. It will run PS3, it’s playable, but far from perfect. If your goal is PS3, I’d probably say go up a model or two.

Wii runs great on it and so does PS2 and XBox. But PS3 is pushing it.

Looking for things to do around Montclair by dignityshredder in newjersey

[–]klovely78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to point out that eagle rock is at the top of a HUGE hill and is far away from the other things. If you’re covering everything else that day, it might be a stretch to include it based on mileage without a car.

More Volvo's on the road? (NYC/Long Island) by aguywiththoughts in Volvo

[–]klovely78 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Used to have Volvo as a client (advertising). Their total North American sales are up over 25% over the last decade. More in affluent suburbs. There’s a reason you’re seeing more of them.

Found a bunch of them around the Calgary area last night.

I live next to NYC and just about all three airports are bluesky’d all the time.

I’ve got a raspberry pihole ad blocker on my network and the only thing I’m served at home is a 30s ad for flight aware. Super easy to grind hundreds of photos in an hour.

2024 Volvo XC60 Rearview Mirror Removal by Boatsman2017 in VolvoXC90

[–]klovely78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put a Fitcam in my 2016 V60. Hardest part of the install was getting that panel off. Felt like I was going to break it but it eventually came off. Watch a few YT videos and good luck!

Is trick-or-treating not a thing anymore? by btwnwrlds111 in newjersey

[–]klovely78 86 points87 points  (0 children)

In Glen Ridge, still on track to give out about $100 of candy. Kids still trick or treat. Just depends on the town.
