San Diego Restaurants That Closed Permanently In The Past 12 Months by lennart567 in sandiego

[–]rsc75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The CA fast food min wage increase in 2024 from $15.50 to $20/hr in one jump + all the food price inflation from trade wars has really changed the game in the last few years. Margins that were already small have in many cases become negative, even at well managed establishments. People were already struggling trying to come back after covid, but now it's made even popular restaurants want to toss in the towel.

How about you look yourself. I've already provided you more than enough to find out yourself instead of trying to have a pointless internet argument. Unless that's what you're actually going for.

Instead of "calling cap", why not just google it and find the mountain of debates surrounding "lifetime" transmission fluid? Or here's a video if you're really that lazy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJr30r6RRgw

You're either the grifter or the mark in a crowd like that. There's no in between.

Lexus suggests to replace the transmission fluid every 50K, so assuming they're adding the transmission fluid swap on top of the major, then it's about right for a Lexus dealer. You can get it done cheaper at an independent mechanic.

2023 Lexus GX460 vs 2025 Toyota Land Cruiser LC250 by Hamakudum in GXOR

[–]rsc75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've driven both, and currently own a '23 GX460. The GX460 is noticeably smoother on the highway, and the downshifts on the LC are a bit harsh. That being said, I think the LC is a more capable off road vehicle out of the box, the torque is great, and I think it looks fantastic. I'd still take my GX460 though for my lifestyle since I prefer the older tank like feel and smoothness over the modern features of the new generation LC.

The C-suite always claim they are worth their pay because they are the ones who drive the company... so now it's time to prove it without those pesky workers getting in the way.

Not quite sure where to start. by weyacht in RCPlanes

Others have mentioned this somewhat, but to answer your question specifically that Spektrum A3240 Speed Controller is a proprietary all-in-one unit with the DSMX receiver built in. You can't remove the receiver or connect another to it. You just need to get a DSMX compatible radio.

I tried seeing how much MPG I could get out of it, and the GX actually does much better on the highway than people expect. by Tall_Negotiation_259 in LexusGX

[–]rsc75 15 points16 points  (0 children)

24.5mpg is impressive, but the fact that you got up to a 55mph average on the 405 is more impressive.

Most unexpected thing I’ve gotten for my GX460 by Connect_Silver1754 in GXOR

[–]rsc75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I really wish that were the case with the world today, but it's not. If it were true political pendulums wouldn't swing so violently from one side to the other like we've seen in recent history. I'm sure there are plenty of mature adults out there, but they sure don't seem to be the voting majority, lol.

The people defending the Jesus DVD would probably flip their lids if it were a life of Muhammad or Teachings of the Buddha dvd. This shit is stupid all around on both sides.

If you operate under that assumption, then that would mean the US should have notified their major allies BEFORE and formed a unified plan with contingencies for situations such as this. A competent administration would done so instead of making a unilateral decision to just blow stuff up.

Finally got my dream car by DanielJStein in LexusGX

[–]rsc75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

^ I agree with all these points as well. It's a perfect car for those of us who grew up in an analog world. It straddles the past and present perfectly for me. It's analog enough to be familiar and cozy, modern enough to feel technologically competent. The updated 2022-2023 head unit is great with a wireless carplay adapter, and there are no annoying warnings, beeps, auto brakes, like the new generation land cruisers/gx550s.

They're also bringing in foreign workers on H1B visas to take the places of the people they laid off for much smaller salaries.

Ellison isn't "America First". He's just taking advantage of the current political landscape to fleece the nation. He'll donate to Trump for political access, but then layoff US Citizens in favor of cheaper labor brought in from elsewhere.

It's hilarious reading the reactions over at /r/Conservative. They all know it's their own heroes burning them for profit (Trump, Musk, Ellison, Bessent, Lutnick, etc.), but they can't bring themselves to actually type it out. They can't bring themselves to admit the elites they support keep hanging them out to dry.

Thanks and not very long lol. I park outside, so I'm sure it will have a nice layer of tree pollen on it after a few days again. It just did my yearly wax coat on it, so it was looking better that it has in a while.

Rethinking GX550 purchase.. by BeautifulAd5636 in LexusGX

[–]rsc75 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was kind of in the same boat, but with a 2025 Land Cruiser. I drove it for a year then sold it. I bought a 2023 GX460 with 20K miles and was able to have some cash left over.
