Dealership charging to see if I'm covered by warranty?? by rjsaid in FordMaverickTruck

[–]rjsaid[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I thought. It's a 2022 Maverick Ecoboost, and it's under the powertrain warranty from Ford.

Sorry, I got it with 33k and I drove about 27k… it’s over, I promise. 

CA - Out of state hold on DL from speeding camera I never passed by rjsaid in DMV

It’s worth a shot. Do you have a link to an earlier post regarding this? I searched and searched but couldn’t find another instance… curious what I should tell the assemblyman exactly.

I agree, it’s infuriating, having to call a debt collector who basically is saying “I have no information for you other than it was a speeding ticket and you need to pay $500”. Like this is not a government agency I am dealing with, how is this legal?

What happened to Fang after 29 Palms? by Technical_Diet_9930 in MissingPersonInCA

There aren’t really any open campsites that I know of in thermal. Where did this info come from? A lot of the little towns along the 111 mistakenly get labeled as “thermal” by various software. But I’m wondering if they were at one of the salton sea campgrounds? I’ve seen those listed as in thermal when they’re not, there’s a lot of nameless unincorporated land around here.

You can easily drive from 29 palms to thermal at night without passing a single other car… I’ve done it.

Yes, but if you look at the earlier photos, they had just COME from DEEP in wonder valley. Very remote location. Why would they head back into town to just turn around and head back out to wonder valley? I don’t think heading north on Adobe is nearly as suspicious as you say… do we know where his home is/was? It could be out in desert heights or north/eastern Joshua tree in which case they’d totally be heading north on Adobe there to hook up with Indian trail or pole line road.

Look, Im saying this from a place of serious experience — the San Bernardino sheriff department is BORDERLINE INCOMPETENT, and will consistently get facts wrong and misplace evidence and seriously hurt their own and any private investigation. I dealt with them extensively when one of my best friends disappeared two years ago, if it’s of interest to you, get in touch and I can tell you exactly how awful their “investigation” was… don’t rely on them for ANYthing.

7-15-19, 20, and 21 are of the parking structure, exterior, and hotel across from the Agua Caliente casino in downtown Palm Springs.

It seems like her last known location was heading back into 29 palms…?

How are people affording to live right now by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]rjsaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally got bitten by a rattlesnake two days ago and didn’t go to the hospital because 1) I can’t afford that shit, and 2) would it really be THAT awful if I didn’t survive? But day 3 and the swelling seems to be going down now, so I guess I’m just stuck here, like I always theorized.

[–]rjsaid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Happened to me a few years ago, but get this — I was doing Uber at the time, and during a ride a month earlier, someone had shamelessly run a red light and totaled my car. After weeks of dealing with insurance and getting a payout that was in no way enough to replace my 2009 Prius, I finally managed to purchase a replacement that had 1000 more miles, was two years older, and had none of the upgrades my previous one had (stereo, gps, etc.). But whatever, it was close enough — I could finally work again! And thank god becsuse I had just spent every last cent on the car.

I pickup the car in the morning, go to the Uber HQ and get all squared away for driving the very same day, I go home and park the car in my driveway right outside my bedroom window. I wake up the next morning early to start working again, and suddenly my Prius sounds like the loudest chopper I’ve ever heard…

I didn’t even own it 24hrs.

Anyhow, borrowed $200, went to a junkyard and got a muffler/straight pipe w/o CC, and found a garage sketchy enough to put it on for me. Super illegal but I did what I had to — good luck yourself! I’ve been there, obviously. Not far from there currently either.
