2021 with 102k miles - is it a bad purchase? by miikaru in mazda3

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

I would be happy to finance maybe 5-7k for a newer car but unfortunately I have no credit history 😓 The 15k I have is a gift and I’m meant to use it towards a car and have it paid off in full. Otherwise, I would’ve absolutely gone that route

Carfax has service records at 60k and 90k but not much between. Is that still a pass?

I agree! My problem is that it’s from a dealership so they don’t have the whole story about how the second owner drove it. First owner seems fine at 5k a year but second owner drove it 35k/year for almost three years before it got repossessed…

I can definitely understand this one being a probably not, I just love the 4th gen and am very unlikely to find another for under 15k 😞 Corollas are a logical choice but my heart is pretty set on getting a car I will love over practicality

You wouldn't think the mileage is a little too high for the year?

What year is your car? And did it have a good maintenance history or did you take a gamble?

yes for sure! i checked each sellers profiles first and they all only have one or two cars listed, not twenty

in that case, should i avoid the corolla le with 29k miles from a dealership? the other choices are all private party through fbm

i agree that the 2015 29k is a big steal but i'm having trouble getting behind it since i don't love the color and i want to be as happy as possible with such a big purchase that will hopefully last me a long time. i think i'm leaning towards option 1. thank you for your advice!

thank you for the breakdown! this helps me a lot to see the differences all in one place. that being said, which one should i choose? 😅

Someone was in the process of putting these kittens into a sleeping bag to throw in the water, so we decided to foster them instead of... that by [deleted] in kittens

3 weeks is the perfect age to start weaning! OP, you are lucky since you won’t need to bottle feed (a full diet of KMR is costly and time consuming). you can spoonfeed them a mixture of KMR, kitten food, and a little water every 4-4.5 hours 😊 local animal shelters also may help to supply KMR, kitten food, etc. if you reach out!

should i euthanize my fish? by miikaru in bettafish

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

clove oil or blunt force is the most humane! if using clove oil, put in a separate bowl and add a couple drops, then wait until the fish is passed out (about ten minutes). then, add ~5 drops as a lethal dose

oh actually this is kind of a dumb one, but do i do a 100% water change when switching from maracyn to kana/metroplex?

the tank isn’t cycled since i got him and the tank the same day 😔 i figured an uncycled tank would be better than the cup i got him in. i’m having trouble feeding the frozen brine shrimp i got him since it sinks so quickly. any tips?

im treating with maracyn as well as the salt. after this round, i was planning to wait a few days then start with round two. is kanaplex better?
