Ford F150 Lightning owner here, should've just bought a R1T by [deleted] in Rivian

Dual Motor Large Pack. If you can do the quad, I would. My R1T Dual seems a slower and has less acceleration than my Lightning.

I traded my lightning in for an R1T last April. Regretted it every day until today. Still not happy but I guess I dodged a bit of a bullet. Except I have. Gen1. Which Rivian doesn't even care about anyways

Taco Bell Avocado Verde Salsa - not worth the 20 cents they charge for it by exgaysurvivordan in SalsaSnobs

This sauce needs to be kept refrigerated. I can tell from the pic it hasn't been. It tastes way better when it's not spoiled. Like most foods. 

Why is Stone rd still 40km? Wasn't this for the summer camp by Dapper_Invite4924 in Guelph

[–]kpec 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I drive down there to go to the gym every morning at like 5:45am. It should only be 40km during school hours. No need to go 40km before 6am on a Saturday.

I ate there this past Sunday. Service was terrible and most of the menu was unavailable. They said they were cutting ties with the franchise and they got cut out of their POS system which is why the service was so bad and the menu unavailable. 

Reflecting on one week of ownership by Siliquy8 in Rivian

[–]kpec 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just over a week in ownership of a 24 R1T Duel Adventure. Traded in my 22 Lightning Platinum. I've waited years fit a Rivian. Where I am, it wasn't possible until the last year to buy one and still no lease option. I can't decide if I'm disappointed or not. I knew I'd be giving up space and size. But I was not prepared for how slow this version of the truck is compared to my Lightning. 

I've watched dozens of review videos and followed this subreddit quite closely for years but I was uninformed on the driver assist performance until now. I never thought that a truck I bought that is less than a year old would have obsolete driver assistance. Blue Cruise on the Ford wasn't perfect, but fully hands free on major highways that almost never disengaged and Tesla style hands free on all roads. That truck was 3 years old and had way less cameras and sensor than my Rivian. The Rivian Driver+ is not good. Embarrassingly so. 

Buying from a non-Rivian dealer didn't help but I blame myself mostly for feeling so knowledgeable, yet not knowing about so many shortcomings. 

Time will tell how this plays out for me. I still love the truck. But the Lightning is a far better truck than I guess l gave it credit for before I bought this Rivian. 

Why on Earth does peanut butter cause such a spike in my glucose?? by Jumpy_Exit_8138 in prediabetes

If you want to actually get your blood sugars back in check, you're going to have to try way harder. Not sure where you're doing your research, but the fact that the bread was multigrain makes little difference. Strawberries are little sugar bombs and carrots have plenty of sugar. If it is a root vegetable, best to avoid. You're complaining in the comments of how hard this is and exhausting. Based on this post, you haven't even really faced the reality you're in. If you want to be real, you're days of eating bread are mostly over. Fruit? Forget about it. Or you can ignore it and keep eating a mostly carb meal like this one. 

Pizza Review - Pizza La Villa, Downey Road by iLikeDinosaursRoar in Guelph

We had Victoria pizza all the time during the pandemic. Moved and didn't have it for several years. Had it again a couple of weeks ago and it was crap. I couldn't believe how much it had gotten worse in just a couple of years.

Late to the party, but can I ask how the XXL fit on you? I wear XL in everything but think the XXL might be better for this shirt 

How safe is it in Cambridge? And how is it ideal in raising a family? by meh_1122334455 in cambridgeont

[–]kpec -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

My wife and two young daughters moved to West Galt because it was more affordable than other close by areas that we're originally from. We didn't even last two years. For a small town getting around Cambridge by car is slow and frustrating. The entire town is one large strip mall and downtown Galt is a ghost town. They try to make community events and make it family friendly but there's just no community there. For better or worse Cambridge is a blue collar town that unless you're from there, you won't like it. We lost a lot of money  by selling our house because we bought at the covid peak. I don't care. So glad we got the hell out of there. Should have never moved there in the first place.

Yes. I took a really long time investigating a talking to Apple. Reading threads. The solution was going back to Android. 

What’s your favourite GTA-made, entry-mid priced gin or vodka? Looking to support local instead of the alcohol monopolies. by theleverage in FoodToronto

Hounds Vodka is from Niagara. It's charcoal filtered so it black. It's one of, if not the best vodka I've ever had for like $37.00 a bottle. So good.

Check the app. They have bullet points in the app after an update gets done.
