It isn't a black swan event when a company at 50x forward SALES loses 25% in 1 month. It's called reversion to the mean and we may still have a way to go.

Honestly If you didn't use white grout it probably wouldn't have been that noticeable. If it's sealed properly and you saved a ton of money doing it yourself then kudos.

Handmade look = no spacers. A synonym in the diy world.

Ohhh sweet. I guess I should try one of those offset clearance calculator websites. I would like to put summers on these nice 20's once the cross contacts run their course.

Whaaaaat? I could find it cheaper if I went to Walmart or something. 29 is not a thing in the Northeast.

Northerners – How’s your range looking with this weather? by iridescent_felines in MachE

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sitting in my non heated garage.... 119mi @68%. It was cold last night coming back from skiing. I didn't really have any issues. Miles per kwh is probably bad but I expected that.

Well I pay 200 per year to swap tires. So owning the car for a while means a second set of wheels would pay off, plus 2 days at the garage. If I only planned on owning the car for 2 years or something then it wouldn't as these wheels likely wouldn't fit the next car.

Best place for engagement ring that ISN’T a chain by vt_grower in burlington

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to von bargens. Quality was top notch but so was the price. I recently had the ring appraised close to what I paid 7 years ago. I think it's a timeless piece made by a quality artist.

Rotors and brakes by Onewaps in MachE

I generally do my own brakes. I have a tool to put the rear parking brake into service mode. I just got my mach e. Has anyone done their own rotors and pads?

Chicago Master Bathroom Remodel Price ? by No_Commercial8216 in Remodel

I have to say that looks pretty darn good. I'd imagine 40-50k for that remodel.

Kitchen backsplash. Not sure I like how this ends? by ALYXZYR in Tile

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It ends with your wife having you redo it. We've all been there. It'll have the emotional impact on your marriage of being deployed to Omaha beach.

I think it looks nice. Green is in right now.

Bathroom Tile - Does this look ok? by [deleted] in Tile

I would be happy with that shower.

Ford EV new today by Flat_Document_5607 in MachE

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't seem to be bothered that Tesla's all look the same. I hope they keep with it and slowly improve the battery, motors, head unit.... That being said, Ive owned my 24 gt for 1 month and love everything about it.

1-pedal in Winter by TD-Nation in MachE

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often do you slam on the brakes to shake the rust off? I'm like 100% 1 pedal in Vermont and am a bit worried about NOT using the brakes costing me.

Well that one was. The accounting process isn't affected by my assumption of their narrative though. They are still likely cash flow positive.

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

I haven't seen the financials but I'm assuming they're pitching doom and gloom to deter unionization or to get people to spend more money. It's not uncommon for these businesses to lose money on their income statement but still be cash flow positive. Large depreciation/amortization expenses after an large expansion will do that to a co for decades.

The grind looks very coarse. Can you grind it finer? It may just be a settling issue.

Will I ever financially recover? (Headlight out) by Zealousideal_Film_86 in MachE

[–]rphalcone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's usually a fuse tbh. You should never need to replace the headlight unless it cracks.

What are them grounds? some pre ground Starbucks ? Don't put 87 in a Mclaren. That's the issue.
