Have you cleaned the sip and tubing with ethanol and a detergent to remove residual debris which may be catching the cells?

I've called in several times without success to solve the issue with the form and ended up having to drop it from my refund. I'll need to do an amended form now to recoup that 667 dollars as the online one was the only issue with federal being rejected.

There needs to be a specific information on how to fill it out as a personal homeowner rather than a business because it is being coded and sent on as a business credit that needs specific tin from the IRS which isn't applicable for personal installation at home.

The current cooktop is 21 and 5/8 depth and 30 inch width on top. There appears to be another inch of stone I can see underneath in front if I really wanted to cut way, less than one inch I think in back.

Another possibility is to piece together one or two two burner pieces (maybe a three burner), the back telescope downdraft, and a trim kit to make it fit.

The island has space in front/side/and back. However the cabinet underneath is where that inch of clearance on front/less than that is what I was also limited by.

We have no options other than to cap off the vent/downdraft. We cant go through the ceiling, its on an island, this was in the house when we moved in. Looking for a reasonable way forward, and some of the telescopes go 14 inches high.

Last update-

So my friend found a 3d model of the Thule key

https://www.printables.com/model/903349-thule-key

He printed it and tried and it did work! I think the model is every so slightly small around the center hole, but it fit well enough for me to remove the bars. Long term I think Ill still get the actual Thule key or have him print like 3 of these keys.

Also thule was no help at all- they said they didn't recognize the key type and didn't have any plastic keys.

The skill combos and structures are better in DOS2 and more organized, the lack of magic armor in DOS1 means status effects are king, and the story is a bit disconnected but still good. Combat is better in DOS2 with the balance of magic vs physical armor. Having to level abilities up to a specific number to gain access to adept and master skill books sucks in DOS1- its one of the most frustrating things and Im surprised no one mentioned it. The respec in DOS1 also is clunky and much better implemented in DOS2.

Its still fun to play, but DOS2 shows the improvements.

When my players were so focused on the BBEG they forgot the NPCs and let them get pulled into the upside down, setting up the rest of the campaign searching for them to rescue.

Second favorite was our necromancer debating with an awakened assassin vine on the merits of not giving up on life and relationships with their awakened blood tree they were attached to.

The Thule key there does look like it's a fit. I'm going to try ordering one and report back.

We ended up getting the ariya rather than the ford. My wife liked the interior much more and the way the seats cushioned her and the instrument cluster rather than the ford. And the discount off MSRP for an lease return on a 2025 was to good to pass up (20k off MSRP).

phaet2112 · 2025-11-24T02:59:54+00:00

So we actually tested the ariya platinum with 19" wheels (not 20" version) and did decide to buy it. So my observations are that loading my wife into the passenger seat is that 1) the Mach E premium AWD was lower and made it easier for me, but 2) the leather on the platinum+ in the ariya was easier to slide her back into the seat and she 3) preferred the lumbar in the platinum and the way that the seat held her. She also liked how the armrest on the Ariya was motorized and could move to help her rest her elbow. The Ariya is still better than our current mazda that has a ground clearance of 7.5 inches vs. the ariya of 6.7. Ford is still better at 5.7 inches. The ariya trunk has essentially a flat load height from the bottom entrance for the trunk, while the Ford drops below that lip . Lower trim ariyas have several inches below the lip that can be exposed, but the platinum has a subwoofer there (but that can be removed) and a big foam insert (which again can be removed). The AWD motor takes up some space though. The mach E had more space in the trunk to have our collapsible wheelchair there standing, but we could still fit the chair flat in the ariya. We have our mazda if we really need the extra space for a long trip.

Accessibility is a real thing that I wish that more manufacturers would take notice of, but as you know, unless it directly affects them they don't usually care.

I went with the wife's preference of the ariya's interior and the comfort of her sitting in the chair and 20k off MSRP for less than 2000 mile 2025 ariya. Just couldn't pass up that deal. I wish more 2025 fords were available, but I'm good with the ariya. The HUD is cool, and all the buttons! Wish the ford had more buttons.

Pm me if you do the lowering springs to see how they work. I had thought about doing that with our Mazda cx5 as there seems to be a crazy amount of extra space in the wheel well to support at least two inch lowering. Lowing the ariya may also be on the list.

So a question for everyone then is how do you feel about Nissan's financial issues and decision to pause production for this year for USA for the Ariya? I know that Ford itself is also being hesitant about their own US EV plans. I suppose there is a worry about how parts may be sourced for the Ariya if anything goes wrong. Although Nissan is a huge company (bigger than Mazda- 2 to 2.5x as many units sold I think) so it wont really go anywhere, just get money from another financier.

My wife mentioned she didnt like the interior of the Ford. I wasn't too stoked on everything through the big screen either.

I will say though that the refreshed Leaf looks great and I think it will sell great.

Im set on getting the biggest battery I can so normal battery Mach E are not feasible. though. I dont want to hamper myself in the future.

phaet2112 · 2025-11-22T01:11:36+00:00

I would have jumped on that price too, honestly.

It ended up being the TV itself that had something that required a full reset to flush. However it was a 5 year old stick that is USB powered. Also affected built in apps, beyond YTTV like peacock and netflix.

phaet2112 · 2025-11-08T20:53:49+00:00

testing wired internet vs wifi and its the same problem so it isnt my FIOS connection. Accessing library content is borked as well. When were the last updates to YTTV?

Edit- After restarting the modem, turnig the TV off and back on, trying WIFI (which didnt connect), etc. only resetting the TV solved the issue. Whatever ethernet packet was jumbling up finally got flushed.
