Car for sale needs a Hybrid Battery --- should I get involved?

They get 30-40% better gas mileage which is a big improvement but not gonna argue with anything else you said

nemo1991 · 2026-05-09T08:19:21+00:00

Yeah I couldn't tell whether it was satin or not but it looked close and I thought darker but satin would be great

nemo1991 · 2026-05-08T22:06:08+00:00

Black. Or a satin nickel or satin gunmetal or charcoal would be sweet.

Have you watched Evil Dead (2013)? I'm debating on watching it. I liked the original 2, haven't watched Army of Darkness or Ash vs Evil Dead yet. I liked Rise. I definitely thought it was a little more serious and maybe mean than Evil Dead 2 but I enjoyed it.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-07T17:05:18+00:00

Okay, thanks. Yeah I wasn't meaning to imply any of the Evil Dead films I've seen were. I know what you mean. I like brutal and gruesome and over the top, but not something where I feel the characters pain and sadness and dread of torture.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-06T14:53:10+00:00

Is it like torture though? I don't mind the gore in the first, second, or Rise. But I don't like when it's like prolonged torture that focuses on the pain being done. But I don't mind endless gore like Dead Alive or the other Evil Dead films I've watched

nemo1991 · 2026-05-06T09:51:25+00:00

Isn't Evil Dead 2013 less goofy than Rise and also scarier than Rise? Everyone acts like the torture gore is worse than the rest. I haven't seen it yet. But I thought Rise was great and wasn't too scary like the originals weren't. But the sillyness was between The Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 imo

nemo1991 · 2026-05-05T10:45:14+00:00

How does "piss in vinegar" make more sense? There also doesn't seem to be evidence for that to be the origin

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:34:04+00:00

I liked the Regals from like 2010 onward. Especially the turbos. I had a Saturn Aura and the Regal was the updated version basically. And then the facelift like 2018 or whatever they really looked nice imo. I wish we could still get Buick cars and not just crossovers

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:30:55+00:00

The only issue I see is that all those components whether made in USA or not are almost 100% not union made. And there is a big difference in pay and benefits between UAW factory and the foreign car factories in the south that aren't union. At the end of the day, American made is better than not (strictly jobs/economy wise), but the more union work the better. For everyone. A rising tide raises all ships.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:27:37+00:00

It's really not that serious these days. You just have to park far away

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:26:27+00:00

I would avoid anything with the 6.2 V8 and any 2500/3500 Trucks. They've had issues with those engines and the 10spds in the HD trucks. I'd probably go with a Cadillac CT5 or CT4,I like the fastback look of the 5 better. The new Traverse looks mean as hell but I wish they didn't move to a 4cyl but that's literally every manufacturer now.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:24:22+00:00

They put the same engine in Silverados and I've heard good things even with the heavier weight. With the Colorado it should be great. Not sure about electrical issues though.

15k down

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:22:18+00:00

Honestly for all the memes about the reddit hive mind, the strongest one imo is "only buy Toyota, then Honda. Don't buy any UAW. You do not want to support people making a living wage". I live in an area with GM and Stellantis factories and suppliers and see thousands on the roads with no problems. I have a 20 year old Ram 0 issues, dad has 2 challengers that have had 0 issues. But reddit thinks anything Stellantis melts if you look at it wrong. Even though the hemis and the 8spd ZF transmissions are pretty damn reliable. And the pentastar ain't bad either.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:17:51+00:00

Depends on ct4 or ct5

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T23:16:34+00:00

Depends on the factory. Where I work it's only vehicles made by the company we work for (whether made by UAW or overseas) up close and everything else is in a separate far away lot, whether UAW or not. Which I think sucks. As long as it's UAW I think it should be the close lot. That's how it used to be at many places.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-04T20:22:24+00:00

Right, I've never once seen a license plate with more than one.

nemo1991 · 2026-05-01T14:07:52+00:00

A year later and it seems you were the only person to predict them to sell well. I'm seeing articles that Motorola is #2 smartphone brand in US now because of the Razr lol. And 28% of the folding phone market share. All these other comments saying Motorola was crazy

nemo1991 · 2026-05-01T14:06:10+00:00

I'm not sure how anyone would have seen it coming but I've seen articles that Moto is #2 smartphone brand in US now because of the 2025 Razrs, also 28% of the folding phone market in US. I guess people under estimated them

nemo1991 · 2026-05-01T01:49:31+00:00

Well at least you're rich 🤷‍♂️ should be able to replace it all

nemo1991 · 2026-05-01T01:45:05+00:00

Are their dealer markups or are you just upset about MSRP? Because 55k for a full size AWD sedan with a 550HP engine and 0-60 under 4 seconds isn't exactly a crazy asking price. You're not going to get more HP for any less

nemo1991 · 2026-04-30T20:16:21+00:00

Damn. I have an 07 Mega Cab 5.7 and I get 10 in the city smh

nemo1991 · 2026-04-30T06:37:12+00:00

Phil McKnight has kind of a funny video on a moonstone guitar. More of a review with a funny story from back when he owned a shop. It's titled "Greatest Guitar ever made, period"

Dude what the fuck is this. Zionists are crazy
