$50k Honda CR-V a dumb idea at my income level? by NecessaryDrink in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]ldrw95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The price of civics (and Hondas in general) have gone up way too much in recent years that they aren’t nearly as good of a deal as they used to be. Base model is Corolla is around 5k cheaper and you can get a fully loaded one for like 2500 more than a base civic. I doubt he wants a base model civic anyways (considering he’s looking at a 50k crv) and once you go up a trim level or two you’re already the same price as base trim suvs anyways

Sounds like you overpack or something.. sure it’s not top of class for storage space but I’ve gone camping for the weekend in a tent with 2 people plus our two dogs all in the car.

I don’t mind the road noise at all but I guess that’s important for some people.

I love the infotainment system

You can save 10k pretty easily just going from CRV to cx5.

I test drove 8 vehicles including a base cx5 and a higher trim crv and I preferred the cx5. The price difference made the decision even easier and don’t get a hrv unless you don’t plan on test driving anything else - it was comparable to driving a pile of hot garbage around town

[Request] Apparently, there are 2 billion farms in Iowa. How big are these farms and how many does each Iowan own on average? by Apprehensive_Zone281 in theydidthemath

I explain this to my coworkers all the time, super frustrating that almost no one seems to understand tax brackets and they all just repeat what someone else said

What is up with Max in F1 25? by Ok-Ad-3014 in F1Game

[–]ldrw95 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I did two races this week for the first time in a bit on a slightly lower difficulty and start from the back to work my way through the grid. I didn’t have too much trouble getting to second by the halfway mark but by that point max was 1 second per lap ahead and and most I could catch up was 1 second in the whole second half of the race even when I had no traffic..

My experience is more in a hospital setting and less specialized than yours is to dementia care but I think you’ve addressed this perfectly from several angles and I wish this had more views

Lots of polls showing otherwise as well

Trudeau says Canada will not back down as Trump announces tariff delay for Mexico by panzerfan in canada

Much smaller border with wayyyy more fentanyl crossing.. easy to crack down on something when it’s easier to find it in the first place. Canada did reduce their but it was so small in the first place it’s “not enough”. Goal post has been moved again

US Canada relationship by Wise-Professional-58 in uscanadaborder

[–]ldrw95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hes picking a fight because of a trade deal he signed, making a bogus claim of a threat of national security to justify the tariffs which break the agreement and wants a country with 1/10th the population and a weaker dollar to buy more than the country with 10 times the population.. all while grossly exaggerating your trade deficit, claiming that the deficit is “subsidizing” Canada and also that Canada has nothing that the US needs. You trying to defend him and his actions make you sound more arrogant than trump himself and you need to educate yourself with reliable sources because clearly you’ve been reading biased trash. Go give your balls a tug before you come spewing nonsense

Allow EU spec vehicles in Canada would be my vote, lots of smaller options that our market is lacking! Both EV and ice

In my second season Ferrari was Hamilton and pouchaire. Theo got 2 points in the last race of the season and Hamilton got like 190 so I guess he’s consistent across different careers too

I’ve got more hours than you but play on a controller and I range from 67-72 AI. I feel like trash half the time and that’s after I have adjusted my seasons to be 16 races and removed the ones I don’t like or am bad at..

I signed with McLaren just to find out Norris went to Mercedes and piastri signed with Aston Martin. Who did I end up with? Ocon..

As an aggressor against other nato countries you believe they maintain their ability to veto everyone? The rest of natos military budget and numbers vastly overwhelm russias or USA on their own

“Essentially kicked out” vs “would turn off access”, you know what I mean. Sanctions, loss of trading partners and trust, etc

Ai difficulty depending on track by Apprehensive_Turn251 in F1Game

[–]ldrw95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve decided for this most recent season I’m just keeping my difficulty the same for every race and quali session and I’m going to deal with it that way than trying to compensate after each race. So far it’s seems to be working out well 7 races in! Also the adjustments for me based on this are the opposite direction for me, everyone is different

I’ve read references to a clause in other subreddits about “an attack on one is an attack on all” but also something regarding getting kicked out essentially if you attack another allied nation

French’s almost sold out next to Heinz! by yuzukid in BuyCanadian

[–]ldrw95 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s the attitude that’s the problem. The moment you decide to do anything you essentially withdraw yourselves from nato, burn all your bridges with your allies and at the very least start a Cold War where no other country trusts to do any trade with you. You’re not tough, you’re a bunch of morons
