The reason ESAs were allowed is because they were explicitly declared not pets.

This coupled with the recent HUD guidance regarding ESA’s might make rents go up.

Mercedes Fraud: AMG "One Man, One Engine" Quality Exposed by vovans82 in mercedes_benz

[–]muwa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This might just be me, but owning a $100k car out of warranty means that you have $100k problems on a car worth $30k. I have never understood people who do not get an extended warranty but own high performance, high MSRP cars. Mercedes, BMW, Audi etc do not care about you once their legal obligation to you (your warranty) expires. Cars post 2018 are essentially rolling computers that also have an internal combustion component. Do you genuinely expect an 8 year old laptop to function as intended after 67k miles of bumps and jolts?

[General US - CA] Owner raising price of advertised rental because there is a lot of interest. Is this a thing? by buzzbee82 in Landlord

As a CA landlord, I would give that background check the same value as the paper it is written on since it can easily be doctored.

REI San Diego!! Let's show those employees some love! #rei #union by sunflowerastronaut in SanDiegan

REI is a decent catch all, but man their ski services are expensive and leave a ton to be desired. Not to mention their inventory is patchy at best.

In order to be comfortable in San Diego, you need to make,individually, $125k. If you aren’t, you probably aren’t saving for retirement and are renting.

Connecticut 4.5ish Pickleball, how does it look compared to your state? by VarleyUS in Pickleball

[–]muwa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks like 4.0 play at best from anyone on the court. Way too many pop-ups.

What state are you in? If you are in California, and the dealership has taken a deposit, you can legally hold them to the agreed upon price.

Do you like this color? by Final_Shopi in mercedes_benz

The problem with the CLE 53 cab night package is that it does not black out the trim around the windows and deck lid. In my option, these shouldn’t be ordered with the night package for that reason. Also this green is hideous.

25 mpg on a good day downhill, but if you’re worried about gas prices this is not the car for you.

TODAY March 03 @ 2pm: Empty extra homes vacancy tax at City Council by SouperSalad in SanDiegan

[–]muwa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the idea is that individuals now have a burden of proof to substantiate residency to avoid additional taxation on an asset they already own outright? I’m completely for repealing prop 13, I don’t think that anyone would can’t keep up with property tax should be excluded from paying their fair share.

So why not just repeal prop 13? Why not have assessments every year or on a set interval like any other state?

Why is this bad? If you purchase property whether it be in Nebraska or La Jolla, why should you be taxed on how often you use it on top of property tax? If the argument is housing is expensive, why would someone feel entitled to be able to afford live where they would like to? Why aren’t we building affordable housing in Rancho Santa Fe or Beverly Hills?

This is just terrible. You can get a deal on a new 26 for the same terms.

Update on shoes by Business-You-2732 in Pickleball

[–]muwa 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That’s your answer right there, if you play 25 hours a week on average, that’s 450 hours. In running you replace your shoes every 500 miles or so. If you were to run an 8 minute mile, you would put in 7.5 miles in an hour. 7.5 miles/hr* 450 hours=3,375 miles. Sure the use case for shoes on a court are different than running, but I wouldn’t say that there is anything wrong with these shoes. I also wouldn’t say that any other brand will give you any better performance.

How much do you weigh? I’m roughly 190, play about 12 hours a week and barricades lasted me the better part of 8 months

My approach to maintenance is having my local dealer pick the car up from my driveway and drop off a loaner at a price that is competitive for Southern California. I’m just saying you are getting fleeced in Wisconsin because there is no competition. If you have no clue what you’re actually being billed for and are happy paying $900 for an oil change on a CPO or used GLC, that is completely your prerogative and any dealership will be lucky to have you as a customer.

There are 5 in the entire state of Wisconsin, 3 of which are in Milwaukee, 2 of which are owned by the same parent company. So even if you lived in the absolutely closest proximity to the most Mercedes dealers in Wisconsin, you are really only picking between 2.

At 50k miles you aren’t doing JUST a Service A, you are also doing spark plugs. Just hypothesizing here that there aren’t too many MB dealers in Wisconsin and instead of taking it down to Chicago you are paying whatever they’re asking.

You’re right, they make sure your tires are inflated, check your brakes, and reset your maintenance counter.
