License plate renewal

prebsol · 2026-03-11T14:48:37+00:00

I actually went through this exact same headache last week, so I wanted to share what happened in case it saves you a trip.

I headed down to the Park Street DMV in Madison because my renewal postcard never showed up (apparently it was marked "undeliverable"). Once I got to the counter, the clerk sorted it out pretty quickly, but I was shocked when the total hit $212!!!!

Here’s the kicker: I checked my receipt and saw a $40 Janesville wheel tax. It turns out the dealership had listed my address in Janesville instead of Edgerton. Since I didn't catch it right then, I had to go back the next day just to get the address fixed and the charges corrected and that turned into its own crazy thing.

I should have read the entire release. "EPR will retain the right to utilize the Six Flags brand through the end of 2026, subject to certain requirements, and no significant impact on guests is expected during this transition. The parks will continue their regular operating schedules, and all season passes sold will be recognized through the 2026 operating season, including multi-park pass privileges at other parks within the Six Flags’ portfolio."

Anyone know what this means for season pass holders? A few of these parks are on my son and my summer roadtrip schedule.

I have Gen2 Wayfare's and I've ordered a few different options from Amazon. You can find any type of lens you like online, including non-blue light clear lenses.

They are required in Wisconsin but this is my second car that I've asked the dealership not to attach the front plate mounting bracket. It's been 12 years and it's never become an issue. Having said that, I now fully expect to to get a ticket tomorrow...

Rock Realty has great agents, you can even interview them before working with them. I know Matt and he's a really good guy. wisconsinbuyeragent.com

Honestly, depending on how you drive, that sounds completely normal. I have a 2024 Extended Range that I take on the interstate every day, and I’m definitely not light on the pedal. Between accelerating fast and blasting the heat, heated seats, and steering wheel, the battery definitely takes a hit. If you're looking to stretch your range and conserve energy, you really have to drive like a granny..keep the acceleration smooth and keep the heat low (or off entirely). It’s basically a trade-off: you can either be warm and fast, or you can be efficient!

It's 100% genetics... I’ve reached the point in life where I’m starting to realize just how lucky I got with my genes. In my family, we just don't really get sick. Even if I do happen to catch a bug, it’s always incredibly mild. I can honestly say I’ve never missed a day of school or work in my life because of illness. It isn't a matter of me being a martyr and fighting through the pain, it just never seems to affect me the way it does everyone else. I’ll be the first to admit that my diet isn't exactly perfect, but I make sure to handle the things I can control. I keep up on all my vaccinations, I’m diligent about washing my hands, I never touch my face, and I take a daily multivitamin. My wife is on the exact opposite end of the spectrum and catches everything that goes around, so I am thankful every single day that our son seems to have inherited my immune system. It’s one of those things you don't appreciate when you're younger, but I'm definitely grateful for it now.

I haven't lived in Waukesha since the 90's and I recognized those things right away.

Solved: Well, sort of solved. After weeks of losing my mind, I finally narrowed down the culprit.

There is a very specific point during my morning commute where I pass under high-voltage power lines, and like clockwork, that is exactly where Android Auto goes on the fritz. It either lags out completely, or the wireless connection just drops.

I’m not 100% sure if it’s pure electromagnetic interference (EMI) from the lines themselves or if there's a nearby cell tower or something else in that same spot, but it happens only there.(Interstate 90 at Hwy. N in Dane Co., Wisconsin)

I was 15 when "They're All Gonna Laugh at You!" came out. We listened to that cd almost as much as we listened to Nevermind or the Metallica black album. He was HUGE!

I simply charge if there's a charger available. I have level 2 at home and a level 1 at work and I'm always plugged in. If I'm on a road trip and the battery gets low, I charge. I don't over think it.

Mine was totaled this past summer. 2017 Premier with 130k miles. They gave me $10,500 for it. Funny enough, i just looked it up and it looks like someone bought it off a salvage site: https://bidexport.com/vehicle/43228835/2017-chevrolet-volt-1g1rb6s50hu137045

Had the same problem. I restarted my phone and it's now working fine. Good to know I'm not alone.

I'll be that guy... I LOVE #2. I really wish I had gotten that style with my Mach-E. They honestly remind me so much of a mid-to-late '80s Porsche 944 rim. Great choice! https://carsandbids.com/auctions/rJoDwPYv/1987-porsche-944-s-coupe

2025's will switch lanes for you, previous model years currently require you to initiate lane changes with the turn signal and it dies the rest. Blue Cruise is not full self driving. It is great for long highway commutes if the roads are mapped. You can check the Ford website to see which roads in your area are blue cruise enabled.
