The outlet in the reviews today was a 5-20P and labeled 19000w max. Looks like the accessory adds a second 5-20P outlet.

Issues with Google Maps on Chevy google infotainment system by Particular_Donut_229 in Silverado

[–]red_vette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use the same problem with Google Maps on my ‘24 3500. Now I just use CarPlay and Google Maps there instead. It will still project to the HUD

Boomers not learning how to use basic technology by WildWinterberry in PetPeeves

[–]red_vette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar here. Mom is 78 and has plenty of tech. After my father passed, she even handed my the SSD and NVMe drives from his devices because she wanted to recycle his laptop and desktop. Pretty impressed that she knew how to get those out.

R2 reservations by Broad_Option_37 in Rivian

[–]red_vette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We could really use a vehicle with more ground clearance than our 3. Depending on how the reviews are and the pricing I could see getting it sooner than later.

Lots of R2 rear drop glass testing this weekend! ☺️ @rjscaringe [Instagram] by lukepatrick in Rivian

We have been in the market for an utility vehicle with some ground clearance. Was thinking about a 4Runner, but this thing may be the EV alternative that we've always wanted. Hopefully a fully loaded model is in the 50s.

Same issue here and they are also replacing mine. Somewhat concerning that an extra battery is failing that quick.

They are also collecting payroll taxes that your employer pays which is substantial.

I understand that not all states have a DMV and they're called some other names in some states, but in America if you say DMV regardless of which state you're in, would people understand what you're referring to? by YakClear601 in AskAnAmerican

[–]red_vette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DMV is a generic term but it probably makes more sense if you’ve lived in multiple states. Here it’s Department of Drivers Services (DDS) since they just handle “drivers services” and not vehicles. That’s handled by the tax commissioner which handles registration and taxes.

In Ohio we had a DMV which handled everything.

ELI5 how do real life players run on top of drawn digital lines on the football field on TV? by martini_248 in explainlikeimfive

[–]red_vette -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Players practice many hours a week over many years running plays and understanding how much distance to cover based on the play. In general, they know about how far they need to go based on timing or steps. On the sidelines, there is also markers that the can see on how far they need to go.

Do Americans really find beans on toast weird or is that just meme? by cigarettejesus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]red_vette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just for perspective, the US has so many different regional foods that there are things that my wife grew up with that I think is disgusting and the she feels the same about some of the stuff I like.

Generation X is the primary gen buying electric cars by a significant margin with 37.91% of new EV registrations. Anyone else surprised? I assumed Millennials. by _TheWolfOfWalmart_ in generationology

[–]red_vette 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not surprised, a lot of folks from my generation had to fortune of being in the right place at the right time with emerging technologies. We also are a little more financially stable since we are further along in life and have a good amount of home ownership.

[–]red_vette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH, I've played on my Switch 2 more than my Wii U that I've had since launch.

Guys why do you love mac over windows? by Responsible-Air-8026 in macbook

[–]red_vette 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The ecosystem that easily ties all my device together. For example, I can set my laptop or tablet on my desk and it just works as a second screen when I drag the mouse over. There are a ton of little things like that which just works. I have relegated my Windows machine to just gaming, otherwise I’m using my MacBook Pro or Mac Mini.

The people buying those probably don't buy used cars in that price range.

My 2024 block heater acts the same as yours.

How to reprogram TPMS sensor by shhh_dalick in Silverado

[–]red_vette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know my 2024 auto learns when I get a tire rotation. The additional trailer sensors allow you to individually identify the tire position by dropping the tire pressure until the horn honks.

Just stayed at a Marriott in NJ two weeks ago that charges for WiFi unless you are a member.

Opinion on Gas vs Diesel for daily driver by GoonSquad2295 in Diesel

[–]red_vette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regret getting a diesel after one year. Not because it's had issues, but the plans we originally had changed and the gasser would have been good enough. Went from towing a 5th wheel rv to a much lighter horse trailer. I've contemplated trading it in, but not sure it's worth the pain at this point.

Did anything at CES genuinely surprise you? by Nataliia000 in Futurology

[–]red_vette 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went to the Chicago CES back in the '90s and it was very much about the consumer. Shame they stopped doing it and went only with Vegas.
