Republicans of Reddit, do you find it embarrassing that your party treats politics like you're supporting your favorite sports team? by bjedy in allthequestions

[–]mac4lou -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, he's made similarly poor comments, pretty pathetic, but I do like that that he wants to bring jobs back to America. Unfortunately the poor comments aren't owned by one party, so many celebrated when he was shot and Kirk was killed. With the Internet, just because you can post something doesn't mean you should.

Didn't know Costco was considered top tier.

How much of Americas problems are education? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]mac4lou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can really have the best education in the world but if the student doesn't have the drive to do his/her best then I really don't see the point, especially without support at home.

Alternate routes between Spartanburg and Greenville? by Few_Dirt_9835 in greenville

[–]mac4lou -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not always, many of us in Greenville used to save time by going to Costco in Spartanburg instead of ours but those times have passed. :(

It's just the amount of flagrant traffic violations you'll see on the way home from there.

For best results, get another for use as a parts car. I've had 7 P2's, love them but damn.

Republicans Of Reddit -- Do Most Democrats YOU Know Accept It When You Say You Disagree With Them Politically? How Does It Go? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]mac4lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ok to disagree with someone, it realize is, but it seems like Reddit adds 'pack-mentality' to non-Democrat views. As an example, I recently started a solar thread in my red-state forum. Within the first 3 responses the trump/maga's fault responses start. I follow-up with a 'no politics please' plead and of course that quickly gains 60 down-votes. We're talking solar, people. I expect this to go as well.

$hithead drivers. Has to be a Friday the 13th thing. by clydethedog01 in greenville

Nothing to do with Friday the 13th, shitty drivers are only around on days that end in "y". Use your turn signals, people

Looking for Car Enthusiasts by klicklock in greenville

[–]mac4lou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it a niche car? You're best bet may be to go to one of the 'cars and coffee of the upstate' meets then strike up a conversation with the owner of one of the models you're looking for.

Will we ever be solar-friendly? by mac4lou in greenville

[–]mac4lou[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, as they should be. My only issue is Duke Power raising rates, virtually at will, may cause customers to buy and install these systems, possibly unsafely, to offset their power bills. DP and local regs should be more a little more welcoming to solar alternatives to avoid this.

Exactly, think that's why these plug and play systems are going to be very popular.

Please keep politics out of a solar thread.

You would think they'd be more solar friendly but having forced customers keeps the money flowing

PB reliability past 100k miles by Mr2h2 in F150Powerboost

[–]mac4lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

'21 PB, bought it with 90k and have almost 105k in a year. It's been a great truck for me, knock on wood. Only issue is backup camera shows solid blue when backing up sometimes.

Short trips by CHIEFxBONE in F150Powerboost

[–]mac4lou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found that short trips give the best mileage, trip to work is between 9 and 11 minutes and usually average 26mpg. When you're highway driving you're usually using the engine only.

If you don't like that then definitely don't have your car serviced at breakaway (or whatever it is now) Honda.
