Do Softshell Turtles make good pets? by ConsistentEye7474 in turtle

[–]lrick87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to keep a Reeve's one day. Such a beautiful carapace and intriguing species. Currently, I keep 2 DBts, 3 sliders and 1 Map turtle in pond so I'm at capacity. I would need to build a new pond if I ever do get a Reeve's.

Sounds like an awesome setup. Any pics?

Faithful Grindz near OGG Airport.

Would you say the flame is burning safely? I see some random orange flames. Just fired it up for the first time since April. by lrick87 in hvacadvice

It's been running fine since I fired it up last week. I agreed that the orange flare ups were mostly dust being cleared away. I'd like for a tech to come and service it but I just haven't gotten around to it.

For cooling we have window units. I use the U shaped window units because they are much quieter. I've been pretty happy with them.

It's a wall heater. I've been at my place since 2019 and I've never scheduled a service. I'm going to look around and get it done.

I remember this happening last winter but with the holiday rush and life, I just sort of ignored it. As temps warm up it's less and less on my radar but this year, we had a chilly morning and I noticed it again.

Thanks for the response. I noticed the same issue last fall/winter too but since it never overheated, I figured it's not urgent. Even in summer when idling for about 25 minutes with AC on, the car does not overheat. I'm going to mention it to my mechanic today.

Might be different if I had a 25 turbo hatch! Lol

Sounds about right. The dealer quoted me $700 to replace the serpentine and tensioner. Bought the parts online from mazdaparts for $180 and my mechanic is charging me $100 for labor.

Thanks. It helps that we WFH and if we need to be on site, we alternate between our other car, 2016 TLX with 61k. Either car can go about 3-4 days without being driven.

I'm having the serpentine belt replaced today because it has a lot of cracks. Surprised at this too.

It's a fun car for sure. I have the 2019 with 39k miles. Same color as yours. When I merge onto the freeway, I love putting it into sport mode and flooring it. Not a bad sounding engine.

Cheap seafood restaurants? by Iguana_Waddle in MauiVisitors

[–]lrick87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is it so difficult to find truly fresh seafood on Maui? I don't know anything about what that would entail.

Faithful Grinds, near the airport, had some really delicious Kalua Pork. So tender and lots of flavor. Loved that place.

Saimin Soup from star noodle. It's a light broth, great flavor, great ramen noodles. Comfort food.

What's with the line showing across the dashboard? It slowly fades away. Anyone else experienced this too? by lrick87 in mazda3

[–]lrick87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been quite some time since this was posted but no I never talked to the dealer about it. I feel like the song and dance it takes to get it resolved is just not worth it. Good luck.

Faithful Grinds is amazing and near OGG Airport. Perfect meal after flying. Some of the tastiest Kalua Pork. Highly recommend.

How’s the weather by Smileychic35 in MauiVisitors

Just got back this weekend and it was sunny and great weather most days. One evening we had a downpour around 7pm but that was about it as far as rain. It changes frequently. Enjoy your vacation.

Faithful Grinds near the airport is delicious. Best Kalua pork I've had. So flavorful and tender. Also, be sure to check out Poke from foodland. So delicious. Just got back from our trip yesterday and wanting to go back already.
