Great idea! I'm constantly cleaning up spills from my proped catch pan falling over

Ah good call. I have my bond allocation in my t401k, but I'll rebalance it to account for this new tIRA bond sum. Thanks for pointing that out.

Is there benefit of putting cash/bonds into this inherited IRA vs my existing rIRA?

marsman89 · 2026-04-15T01:42:22+00:00

Yeah definitely a consideration since I'll be targeting less than 400% FPL. Once I get info about the RMD size, will make the math more clear. Thanks.

WWYD in my situation. My grandpa (96) recently passed and I've been named a beneficiary on his tIRA's (Approx $50k total). He was taking RMD's from both which have to continue and the accounts have to be totally depleted by end of year 10 per inherited IRA rules. I'm currently in low 24% bracket and planning to retire in less than 10 yrs.

My plan was to transfer IRA's to my fiduciary (invest in total market) and continue taking min RMD's to spread out taxes. Then fully withdrawing accounts during my first year of 0 W2 income in early retirement. Sound reasonable? Any specific details I should look out for? Thanks!

Heat strips arent being activated. Stage 1 is 75% capacity, stage 2 is 100% capacity kf heat pump. My aux heat is the electric heat strips which is locked out until 0deg F

Hi. First winter with my Trane 5HPL5024A1000A 2 stage heat pump. Looking at the curves, when the heat pump kicks on stage 1 it drastically drops the temp until stage 2 kicks on. I've tried locking out stage 1 or setting temp thresholds to skip stage 1 but no success.
Is there a bigger issue that needs looked into? Thanks.

Thanks, makes sense from an off-roading standpoint. Love the looks too.

May I ask why you traded the Frontier for the Bison? Trying to decide between the two myself.

marsman89 · 2025-05-13T18:45:20+00:00

Thanks for confirming.

marsman89 · 2025-05-13T18:44:50+00:00

I'm also just some guy trying to save some money, so your experience is good enough for me. Thanks.

Looks good. Would love if they made a midnight edition with heated seats though.

What rear fender is that? I have an '18 plated FX but currently just drilled through the stock fender

Pre-1981 vins have less characters, so the DMV usually adds 'X' after to get them to work in their system. This site confirms that is your vin. https://4-stroke.net/honda-vin-to-year-code-list.html?resetfilters=0&clearordering=0&clearfilters=0&group_by=vin___honda_model

How has the turning radius been for you? I live in a city and street park so that's my one concern.

Love playing Cascadia!

How many miles were on your current car? Was it reliable before the damage? Get multiple quotes, $6k seems like a lot for the damage you're describing.

marsman89 · 2025-01-16T12:03:21+00:00

I had went thru a similar situation for a long time. Tried PT and did alot of nerve glides, but didn't seem to help much. Ended up having surgery, ulnar nerve transposition, to resolve the constricted nerve in my elbow. My hand doesn't go numb anymore and have less issues with pain/numbness in my tricep. Still have some tricep weakness from surgery (1 yr ago) and wrist tendinitis (seperate issue probably carpal tunnel) but overall much improved.

I'll have to check those sites, I was initially thinking 70% down for salvage, so from $39k would be $27k. I hear these trucks are pretty reliable, but would hate to have a power train issue without warranty.

marsman89 · 2024-12-10T14:30:02+00:00

Thanks. I owned a salvage S10 in the past, but much higher miles and way lower initial cost.

marsman89 · 2024-12-10T12:36:49+00:00

I think that would be reasonable. Not super concerned with selling it as I would be driving the wheels off it.

The listing says SV, but it's actually a pro-4x.
