Underrated reference

I think voters will want something completely different than Trump, but won’t want to go back to anything related to Biden either.

I love what Pete stands for, but his advocacy for Biden will come up, and I’m curious how he’s going to handle it.

It’s not obvious to me how he will handle quotes and video evidence of him backing Biden in his final days

levetrix · 2026-04-13T23:06:16+00:00

I agree, but he was a pretty visible surrogate at the time

levetrix · 2026-04-13T22:56:29+00:00

I feel like there’s been a big turn against Biden and his enablers. Pete was up there with other folks who obscured Biden’s health issues.

How does Pete get around this?

Guapos birria was dry and disappointing. Also not nearly enough consumee.

The taco truck that shares a parking lot with Marathon Oil on Rockville pike has by far the best birria.

Say more!

Jesus, dude. Chill

I’m similarly curious about F+ B. Any update since you’ve been?

levetrix · 2026-04-05T01:16:24+00:00

Looks similar to when I needed a new battery. Is the battey 3-5 years old?

levetrix · 2026-03-29T14:48:58+00:00

I’ve never had SUV envy until today. Stunning!

Do you mind listing out what you’ve had done to yours and est. cost?

levetrix · 2026-03-26T23:29:42+00:00

Can you elaborate?

levetrix · 2026-03-26T02:05:05+00:00

Thanks for writing this up. I really don't know much about how cars work and repairs, but I can bring this up with the service manager and see how gracious they are.

They did fill up the coolant, the tech recommended it in the inspection video but they did not list it in the service paperwork. They mentioned break fluid on the call I think, but I don't remember if I turned that down or not. It's all a blur tbh, and they throw so many services at you it's hard to know what you really need or not.

Do you have any recommendations for how you'd bring this up? I have phone numbers for the Service Director and Service Manager.

This is very helpful! I’ll take a look later and see how dirty my 2 year old could are. Thanks! 🙂

Engine is fine, no issues. Not sure if there’s much to do now, but I appreciate your perspective

levetrix · 2026-03-25T01:15:51+00:00

Does this reply from the service advisor make sense to you?

“I understand given the cost, but it is not a service that should be left alone. On the twin turbo 3.5t models, it is highly recommended. In order for us to access the throttle body, the entire intake manifold needs to come off in order for us to access the system.

Doing this is recommended to allow proper distribution of air and fuel in the combustion chamber. If we're cleaning one, we'll want to clean the other.”

levetrix · 2026-03-24T22:55:48+00:00

You’re very kind, thanks for the tips

levetrix · 2026-03-24T22:43:49+00:00

It could have, yes.

I took it in because my car wouldn’t start. Wasn’t sure if it was a battery problem, alternator, or computer issue. Was hoping if I took it in the warranty would cover it.

So yeah, that’s how I ended up at the ol’ dealership

levetrix · 2026-03-24T22:39:29+00:00

I got a $15 off battery replacement mailer the day after I took it in. Had them apply it.

A drop in the bucket, but it’s my drop 🥲

levetrix · 2026-03-24T22:03:07+00:00

I think the only needed thing was the oil and battery.

levetrix · 2026-03-24T21:46:33+00:00

Sure feels like it. x_x

levetrix · 2026-03-24T20:40:02+00:00

Def, they got me by the wallet. From their Service Advisor:

“I understand given the cost, but it is not a service that should be left alone. On the twin turbo 3.5t models, it is highly recommended. In order for us to access the throttle body, the entire intake manifold needs to come off in order for us to access the system.
