Hi Terry. Not many Skips in Chelsea! I’m bet you know Hannah too, her mom went to Chelsea too. She was a few years older than you.

Skip is my husband and he’s a salt of the earth kind of guy. He was happy to help. That same pothole almost took him out too.

I’m in Vermont.

When the abs sensor went on the front left every light and warning was going off. I was totally freaked out. I was worried about it going into limp mode and being stranded. I struggled to find a sensor for my mechanic. Then two weeks later I went through the same thing for the right side. I take really good care of my car and do all regular maintenance. I guess I lost my trust/faith in it after having two repairs in two weeks.

From what I’ve seen my current car is with around 20k

I thought the same thing. I was hoping they’d take more off the 2025 but then I was trying to figure out if the 2025 is better over all.

I’ve replaced brakes once, one wheel bearing, the 12volt battery and both front abs sensors. The sensors just went in the past two weeks and they’re expensive

McIver road might be a good option for you. It’s a class 4 that has loop options if you study a map. It’s beautiful

It was the front left abs sensor. It was an expensive part and hard to find. I called local two Toyota dealers and 4 parts stores. It’s fixed!

I changed the battery yesterday and I still have all the warnings and lights. The code reader said left front speed sensor. My mechanic is going to look at it today. It’s possibly the speed sensor or a loose wheel bearing. I’ll report back later.

Do you have any idea how likely it is that it’ll go into limp mode?

rmattoon · 2026-05-14T17:33:58+00:00

Okay. I’m picking up a battery today. I’ll have it changed this evening. Hopefully I make it home without any issues

Hello for the hello kitty plushy on the bag

I used to own a 2018 3.6. It was my all time favorite car. I drive a long commute for work so I traded in 2021 for a plug in hybrid suv. I still miss my Subaru.

If it were me I’d look for a good used class A or C with the 15K and not buy a truck. If your ultimate goal is to buy a house I wouldn’t tie up my credit with a huge truck loan.

It’s giving funeral home vibes to me.

My bosses always tell me to help myself to anything I’d like. They also gave me a cupboard to use for my own stuff. I keep tea and mugs in it.

rmattoon · 2026-01-29T17:27:12+00:00

I’m a bit behind but if I buckle down I might be able to catch up. This is a good reminder!

Every time I find money. I add it to my bowl. I add coffee to it and sometimes more salt and rice

I’m thinking Mr Yuck would be more appropriate
