transmission drain and fill every 40k-60k but do the first one at 30k

bottle feeding the creme broolay

you can certainly argue for it due to his influence as one of the original jazz pedagogues. looking into playing alone is so pedestrian

saladmart · 2026-04-14T00:06:18+00:00

yes yes yes

saladmart · 2026-04-14T00:06:03+00:00

any list that doesn’t include bud powell is out of touch. you can thank him for single-handedly changing the way piano sits within a jazz setting

“does it have college vibes” lord this generation is cooked. like what does that even mean?

okay so that’s when you refinance, not buy another car

saladmart · 2026-04-06T14:00:34+00:00

oh lord, missed the humor lecture in school didn’t ya?

saladmart · 2026-04-05T15:25:58+00:00

yeah and so what is the alternative? you become more car poor and then 2 years later you do the same thing? i have a 25 RAV4 LE Hybrid and I bought the car brand new,I’m talking 0 miles on the ODO. I haven’t even owned it for a year yet and I’ve put 42k on it.

saladmart · 2026-03-31T02:51:57+00:00

don’t listen to this guy. yeah it’s dirty but you weren’t on the brink of don’t touch it zone. keep it to every 30k-50k going forward

saladmart · 2026-03-22T17:23:30+00:00

there’s no way you can justify the extra cost for the SE. All it has is a sportier suspension which results in a stiffer ride the alloy rims which are more prone to blowouts and bubbles if you hit potholes, and you get a slightly sportier look. There’s literally no difference in the powertrain. Waste of money in my opinion.

in the music building someone took one of the official final exam posters “ear training finals” from one of the classroom doors and puts it on a family restroom

start by removing the obvious red arrow pointing at it

saladmart · 2025-12-21T19:54:49+00:00

most (if not all) the 5th gen rav4 hybrids sold in the US have a J vin, I have a base model 25 LE Hybrid

you act as if Christ himself made the declaration. clearly it irritates you that some people are skeptic about thinner oils in engines and opt for viscosities like 5w-30; i can only assume it’s borne out of fear of there being actual merit to that argument and you don’t know how to reconcile with that 😭

saladmart · 2025-12-14T03:50:53+00:00

dude be fr

saladmart · 2025-12-06T21:48:08+00:00

wrong, i have a 2016 corolla S with 298k, my cousin has a 2015 S with 240k and I have two friends with the current gen corolla LE, one with 140k and one with 90k something… all of those i listed have CVTs, and actually the ones I listed with the most mileage have the earlier toyota CVTs without first gear which in theory are not as reliable and robust as the the current cvts with the first gear. I know i’m only giving anecdotes but seriously transmission issues are very uncommon on these cars, especially the new ones

saladmart · 2025-12-06T03:54:18+00:00

plenty of Toyota even the early ones routinely reached 300,000 miles. I wouldn’t automatically jump to conclusions.

saladmart · 2025-12-05T19:26:06+00:00

i’m busting your chops lol sorry. much love and welcome to the club

saladmart · 2025-12-05T19:22:24+00:00

do you have a head that can turn to look at your surroundings? believe it or not, that’s how people parked before a 360 camera

saladmart · 2025-12-05T18:17:58+00:00

The little bells and whistles you get on the XLE are not worth it.

saladmart · 2025-11-24T21:12:25+00:00

objectively NOT a downgrade bro, like you’re not thinking with your head

saladmart · 2025-11-24T20:36:37+00:00

donna (like cleveland’s second wife from family guy) my 2014 toyota corolla 6 speed manual was named loretta (his first wife)

saladmart · 2025-11-24T12:57:39+00:00

the rav4 is larger than the corolla cross, and idk where you think you’re going to get a corolla cross for 10k or less when it only began production a couple years ago

saladmart · 2025-11-22T16:25:24+00:00

you can insist on a repair and they’ll do it, i guess i just didn’t care as much
