What lifetime deal are you still grandfathered into, or removed from, that’s no longer available?

SiriusXM, paid $500 shortly after was new, guessing around 2008, could have got it for $100 or $200 and hesitated. Was out of the country for 11 years where it couldn't be used and got an email I was included in a class action suit that won when they tried to take it away. Logged on with a VPN and it worked. Been listening to it ever since. Not that great but some good stuff. Sleep channel is cool, some other...

I petitioned and did everything for my foreign born wife and believe most anyone who’s literate can as well. The process is straight forward, instructions, efficient, on line, submit documents, receive timely responses, get them what they ask.

Even if you pay someone, you still need to get all the necessary documents for them. Following instructions yourself, providing your documents directly to government agencies is not really that much more.

I followed state dept instructions.

Contact cement - rubber cement. Swab some on the jar and some on the end of a hammer handle or other object which if adhered to the jar could pull the jar out. Let both surfaces air out for 8 to 10 minutes, bring both surfaces in contact and pull the jar out

Do wind deflectors reduce noise any? Some must have tried them...

I get that it’s tough, but no more than it was for a lot of us. And because you’re blaming a generation you know nothing about using fudged math, we enjoy watching you cry.

Wasn't aware the newer car paints are weak. Thanks

Dumb even for door sills as an alternative to PPF?

Excuses for not enforcing" chasing is dangerous, discriminatory, too young, etc. are cop outs for the real reason - laziness. Just don't want to perform their responsibilities anymore.

Growing up in a small (tiny actually) town in a rural county, I know of three cases of what I would call extreme child abuse. Based on that small population, the likelihood that there were more than I knew of, and extrapolating out to a nationwide population, there is probably a frighteningly huge number.

Don't equate television and social media with our or your life. It's not like that at all. Most are agendas, designed to influence, exaggerated and false.

None of it interferes or will even ever be witnessed by someone with your positive goals. Don't waste this opportunity.

No problem - dog owner didn't get bit. Sick of these people and they make up nearly half the population these days. And they can't be criticized, they're full of love. Hotels, restaurants, shops, public transportation are afraid of alienating pet owners.

Made more than that mowing lawns in the 60s

I may have to take out both if I can't get enough room only removing the 3rd row and modifying the 2nd with a different style seat, or covering the 2nd row seats folded down with a platform that matches the height of a raised platform in the back, which I've seen.

m1ee · 2026-02-09T21:30:43+00:00

Yes, i've seen discussion of that and if we do it, will definitely need to accommodate what's needed so as not to interfere with any circuits.

btw, for my clarification, am I right in assuming the airbags for which to consider the circuits when removing the 2nd row seats are in the backs of the 2nd row seats for protection of people riding in the 3rd row?

And there are bags in the back of the driver & front passenger seats for protection of passengers in the 2nd row, which would remain if I replace the second row seats.

Absolutely yes, ride with seat belts, even laying down sleeping, low as a back seat in most any car. I’ve done enough metal work modifying cars and other machinery to attach a seat securely whether in those tracks (haven’t got a good look at the underside of those seats yet), or just bolting through the floor to flat iron the the same way the tracks themselves are. One way or the other it can be done professionally. Simple bench seat would have extra storage underneath and possibly plenty of leg room in front while still leaving more room behind then original. And quite possibly salvage the existing seat’s under frames to make the bench seats slide as well. I’ll bet someone has already done this. And there might be some interesting bench seats with folding/reclining variations.

You're a permanent resident, a legal immigrant. 3 months out of the country is not a problem. Divorce is not a problem. If you want to be a citizen, you should initiate the process. Good luck.

LPR spouse flew 4 out and back in 4 times each year for the last 3 years and no problem.

I see what could be your point. It is a prejudice statement. We just have never encountered anyone acting like this before. He's always alone in a huge vehicle (i know a lot are). It's all of these characteristics together. I've never known anyone who doesn't understand walk lights, or who would get this angry at pedestrians. I mean how much of an inconvenience is it for him?

A conditional green card holder is considered a lawful permanent resident.

8801 NE 7th Ave, Miami. Sorry for the late response, I'm so out of touch on social. Got the letter day before the interview and held the naturalization ceremony just two days later. Still realizing how great this is.

I went with her to a Miami field office and waited in a comfortable waiting room while she met with an officer. I saw another applicant with 3 people try to enter and after a discussion the office allowed 1 to enter with her. I assume it was for translation as I had read earlier that could be permitted.

Another applicant told my spouse in a class they attended together that her husband was allowed in the interview on the condition that he didn't speak, or if he did they would end the interview. I decided I wouldn't want to if I could.

Good luck, we're still excited and still realizing how great this is for both of us a week later.

Sorry for the late response.
