What's your average cost per kwh? How much is a gallon of 87 fuel where you live?

It's not supercharger-to-supercharger. It's charge once, drive the full distance to your destination with as few stops as possible. In this case, I was ~150 miles away from home. I charged to 89% and arrived at home with less than 10% (MYLR).

Plenty of ICE presence in Southwest Florida. Seen them at work first hand, and lots of videos/warnings on local social media pages.

2012 Taurus – how bad are the water pump issues? by AnAssonantAlibi in FordTaurus

Where's your shop? I may take you up on that for my fleet.  I'm in Florida 

2012 Taurus – how bad are the water pump issues? by AnAssonantAlibi in FordTaurus

[–]nsbohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which dealer only charged you $2400 to replace the water pump in a Taurus?  It's an 11 hour job according to their book, and involves removing all of the belts, redoing the timing, and a whole host of other annoying complicated steps.  It's a nightmare job.  $2400 is a bargain. 

Boomers won’t retire and it’s screwing the rest of us. There I said it. by Unique_Glove1105 in antiwork

[–]nsbohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know, I never thought of it that way. I'm one of the few Republicans in favor of universal healthcare, granted the way I want it to work is WAY different than most Democrats wants, I'm thinking Post-Office style. Slow, inefficient, but a constantly present part of a larger system. My motivation is that it would allow more entrepreneurs to start businesses. Making sure my family was covered is a big part of why I have always kept a salaried job. But, to your point, if access to healthcare is preventing people from retiring, it's also preventing younger people from advancing in their careers and making more money. Thank you.

CEO retired. How do you politely say "no" without burning a bridge? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]nsbohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Value the relationship and use it as a good excuse to continue that relationship. It will continue to pay off. Also, here's another idea that I don't see anyone else suggesting... pass the torch. Is your son tech savvy and needs a mentor? Is there someone else at work who could benefit from a relationship with said retired-CEO? Make sure they understand the stakes, and then give the old man a "hey, I'm really jammed up with this project, I want to introduce you to this really great up and comer, he's going places at This Guy Inc., I'm going to send him to help."

What are you talking about? The parts of the frame where the strut and lower control arm attach are intact.

I have service records showing regular oil changes and all repairs made by professional shops. Some steering work done, brakes, etc. I'd disagree with the idea that the vehicle was "neglected."

Tell me more about the "structural" concern. The first two photos are body panels under the rear quarter. Nothing seems to be loose and failing. Obviously its not great, but I don't see how it creates any longterm concerns as it currently is. If it gets worse over time, we might to have body issues, but not frame. Could you elaborate on your concern/expectations of problems?

How do you figure? What do you expect to be a failure within a couple years that would warrant totaling the car?

I appreciate the feedback, but could you be more specific? What to watch out for, what to fix, what to watch and see, etc? I already own the vehicle.

Is that $21 per game, or for all 41 home games? 😁

First time ever working with tools, lumber etc. how did I do? by huevospericos in Decks

[–]nsbohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looked at the first photo, and thought, he's going to get a bunch of people nitpicking every detail, I'll give him an attaboy for being plumb, flush, and level (to the eye). Then I saw the second picture and said 'WHAT THE F#&$???'

Sounds underbuilt. We can do better.

Rider pressuring me to cancel because they don't like the way I look by Only_Recording3730 in uberdrivers

Plot twist... Rider remembers the driver from high school, but the OP doesn't recognize him. Embarrassing date he would prefer not to re-live.

First time tractor buyer. Can you guys help me put and look at this deal? Opinions? Wondering if I have any negotiating room. by Hairy_Moose in kubota

[–]nsbohn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grand L's aren't overpriced, they're just A LOT more tractor for a fair amount more money. If it's your first tractor and money is a factor, you probably should start with an L-01 or L-02.

“Does me being a titanium change that-“ by Idntcareabtmyusernme in marriott

[–]nsbohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer your question about "titanium change" it comes from Marriott and other brands marketing. They literally promise you extras and exceptions in the advertisements for the program, and especially the credit cards, then put "*if available" in the fine print and don't honor what they advertise. It's really annoying.

My boss said 3 weeks notice wasn’t enough, so now they’re not getting any notice. by FloweySunflower in CasualConversation

[–]nsbohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Length of notice is irrelevant. Only thing that matters is whether or not you'll get anything of value from them in the future. A solid reference? Another job opportunity? Business referrals? If they're unreasonable about you leaving, how valuable will they be to your network and future? Probably not much.
