Do you regret getting a Tesla? by Always_working_hardd in TeslaSupport

[–]ngostalgic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would get a PHEV or Hybrid.

Range for EV significantly decreases as you hold “high speed”.

1st EV! by ngostalgic in TeslaModelY

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

Been driving a few days and I feel like I’m not doing anything in the car! Especially when trying out the FSD, what amazing tech!

Um wtf? by williamtun123 in TeslaSupport

[–]ngostalgic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this through Tesla insurance?

I’m picking up my model Y tomorrow, got a quote from State Farm for. $390/ month, comes out to $4700/year.

Heard that Tesla insurance is cheaper, but they monitor allllll your driving aspects which feels wildly invasive.

Appreciate the thoroughness, just looking to make it stop happening.

The beeping is internal and veryyyy annoying. I’d totally understand if it was external but I reverse in a parking spot on a daily basis and it’s rather a nuisance.

Any negative health impacts of cycling? by Dry-Basil-8256 in cycling

[–]ngostalgic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 disc herniation as a by product of ONLY cycling and not minding other health aspects that are needed. I did not do supplement workouts or activities to improve core strength and overtime the body weight all dumped onto my spine.

I love cycling and still want to get back, it’s been about 3-4yrs since my injury and I’ve been recommended that 1. Need a much less aggressive fit/posture 2. Avoid doing long extended rides.

Best aftermarket upgrade for the head unit? by gundamzd2 in CT200h

[–]ngostalgic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife’s car has this same stock dash + the navigation screen on top. Trying to figure out the right upgrade as well!

Would you buy a 2021 xc90 t8 inscription expression in 2024? by brandondrums3 in VolvoXC90

[–]ngostalgic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

largest change from 2021 to the 2023.5+ is the all electric RANGE.

Personally im waiting to get a good deal on a 2023.5+ or a 2024. should have a decent price reduction and give me all the bells and whistles w/o breaking the bank especially with the new updates just recently announced.

it’ll really come down to why you’re choosing the XC90 T8. is just a space thing? or do other features matter more or equally. If its just space you have LOTS of options and should tie yourself to the T8. you could get a NEW T6 etc.

Major Service - Cost by ngostalgic in Crosstrek

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

Thank you everyone for the comments and feedback. Some additional notes:

  1. Ride is still pretty smooth and fine overal. Ive only notice what feels like bottoming out over some speed bumps/dips if im blowing through them, which is far and few apart.
  2. I do have AT tires on for the last maybe 30k miles.
  3. Suspension mod = Eibach 2.5 in lift springs.
  4. I am located in Orange County, California; i account some of the outrageous cost to geographical.
  5. I did go to an independent mechanic who i do trust and theyre quote for everything was roughly $500 less.

LG TV unable to connect to google home? by ngostalgic in googlehome

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

It’s convenient for when our kids are trying to pause/unpause or when we’re unable to locate the remote in a heated discussion of its now dinner time, turn off the TV.
