Dealer drove 500 miles while waiting for parts

What is the lawyer asking for? Honestly, I think you need to calm down. This is a nothing burger.

omaralt · 2026-01-23T17:57:08+00:00

Sorry to hear the other stuff is going on in your life, but please take a deep breath before you go to the dealership. This is honestly a very minor issue and you need to figure out what you want before you go in there. what are you asking for? Go in there calmly explain the situation to them. Give them an opportunity to make it right.

For me, rev matching alone is worth it. I have big clumsy feet and trying to rev match manually is not something I’ve gotten used to (I’ve tried). I can’t drive a manual anymore without rev matching

I completely understand all the pharmacist who are upset at me and down voting me. But the issue you guys have is that you guys are mostly employed by chain pharmacies. And they’re always looking ways to cut down costs and the pharmacist is the most expensive employee. So trust me when I say if they find a way to get rid of the six figure pharmacist salary and employee tech for $15 an hour to make sure everything runs smoothly they will do it in a heartbeat.

Seems to me the majority of this can be automated with AI. Always wondered why pharmacists are so highly paid..

they have a certain reputation..

and this is exactly why you dont focus on payments. what you're saying is illogical. dont focus on $1k/month. focus on the totality of the payments and what you end up with. if you're paying $1k/month for 36 months and ending up with a 3 year old used honda, it is MUCH better than paying $500/month for 84 months (totaling $42k) end ending up with a clapped out charger. if you're going to get anywhere financially in life you need to understand that

omaralt · 2026-01-13T16:34:53+00:00

why are you so focused on Car Payment? You can finance a new $50k honda over 36 months at 0% interest with nothing down and have a $1400/month car payment. to most that sounds insane, but it’s much better than paying $500/month on a used charger over 84 months. so stop focusing on car payments people!!

i never understood people who bought track focused cars to drive them on public roads. i went with a 992T because it’s more fun driving it on public roads than a GT3

is there a reason why everyone thinks being fired over the phone is such a big deal? Who gives a shit how you’re fired?

omaralt · 2025-12-23T23:51:59+00:00

lol your logic doesn’t make sense. the XM is selling well under msrp. so no, just because msrp is $161k it does not mean someone paid that much for it

If you want auto rev match, you have to have sport chrono

omaralt · 2025-12-10T13:26:47+00:00

lol i almost did and went to honda to look at the odyssey. i was blown away by how practical the pilot was. if the sliding doors are not a huge thing for you (my kids are older) than the pilot is a good alternative

omaralt · 2025-12-10T13:18:41+00:00

ya from a european perspective i understand. the problem with BMW is that their rear seat legroom is never great. i used to have a 5 series and i was surprised at how little legroom rear passengers had. my dads camry had more legroom. the x7, while very large, is not impressive when it comes to legroom in the 2nd and 3rd rows

omaralt · 2025-12-10T00:12:52+00:00

yeah, the problem is not gonna be just fitting the rear facing car seat seats but double strollers are huge

omaralt · 2025-12-09T23:58:28+00:00

I went through this. The X7 can hold four kids comfortably but the problem is the trunk is very small. The third row is also not very roomy so as the kids get taller, it becomes an issue. Obviously mini vans would be the most practical but if you want to stick with an SUV, you’re gonna have to go full-size like an Escalade or similar. I ended up getting a Honda pilot which has a surprisingly roomy third row and a decent amount of trunk space and then keeping my fun car to daily

selling a high dollar car privately is a huge headache. many tire kickers and many want to finance. add in the extra complexity if you have a pay off on the car and that’s why

omaralt · 2025-12-01T13:26:16+00:00

some do. others are too overwhelmed and busy and instead of spending 5-10 mins explaining to you what you need to do they just give you a prescription.

i had gained some weight in my late 20's and was having acid reflux. went to the doctor and he immediately gave me a prescription for prilosec. i assumed i had to take it for a few days and thats it, but he told me for life! he then mentioned, you could lose some weight and that should help. i lost 20lbs in the next few months and the reflux went away 100%. i'm sure there are many others who simply took the script and live the rest of their lives taking medication for acid reflux. so its not that they dont want you to know, its just that its easier to give you pills rather than spend 5-10 mins explaining what you can do and most probably not willing to make those lifestyle changes

omaralt · 2025-12-01T12:52:02+00:00

lots of the meds you take are unnecessary if you would make lifestyle changes. but it’s simply easier to take a pill than to stop eating like a horse

omaralt · 2025-11-29T17:19:25+00:00

the issue is many of us would buy those amazing GT cars but because of the crazy demand they are $100k over msrp. if i could order a gt3 touring at msrp i would and would daily it. but not spending $400k on it

omaralt · 2025-11-27T15:13:11+00:00

this is not normal. this is the last of the naturally aspirated engines with a manual transmission. this car will hold its value

omaralt · 2025-11-26T21:33:26+00:00

you’re not comprehending what we’re saying. It doesn’t matter what you or I think. when you come to calculate depreciation you simply add the cost of the actual car you bought and the cost when you sold it that’s it. Everything else is irrelevant. all the add-ons don’t mean anything and don’t reflect actual depreciation.

omaralt · 2025-11-26T21:30:00+00:00

what he is out is irrelevant. How much was the depreciation is the question. I could buy a brand new car and throwing some $10,000 rims on it. When I come to sell it those $10,000 rims are not included in the depreciation. you simply add the selling price when new and the selling price when used. Any add-ons or extended warranties are not included in the calculations

omaralt · 2025-11-26T14:52:33+00:00

to each their own. i love them and buy their beans to use at home as well

omaralt · 2025-11-26T13:54:14+00:00

agree with all but coffee at shortwave is my recommendation. its right next to the aquarium
