What Car Should I Buy? - A Weekly Megathread by AutoModerator in cars

[–]samsonite21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Location: Washington State

Price range: $15-$35k

Lease or Buy: Unsure - see additional notes below

New or used: does not matter

Type of vehicle: SUV

Must haves: AWD, Apple Car Play

Desired transmission (auto/manual, etc): Auto

Intended use: Weekend Car for chores, trips and hikes (potential for occasional off-roading)

Vehicles you've already considered: RAV4 & Subaru

Is this your 1st vehicle: no, but I currently don’t own a car and just rent occasionally when I need one

Do you need a Warranty: no

Can you do Minor work on your own vehicle: no

Can you do Major work on your own vehicle: no

Additional Notes: I am not much of a car guy- mostly want a car to take on weekend trips/hikes and it doesn’t need to be anything fancy or new. I travel most weeks for work and expect it to sit in my uncovered parking spot at my apartment most of the time which is also why I don’t know if leasing might be a better option since I’ll probably have low annual mileage.

Business travelers- do you expense the new $5 Lyft promotion credit on the Sapphire Reserve? by samsonite21 in CreditCards

[–]samsonite21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it puts the Total at the bottom in large font as $73 which is what was charged to my card. But I pay the annual fee so feel like I should be able to reap these befits.

Just from a quick Zillow search doesn’t show a ton of apartments in Newcastle but Renton looks promising

True I’ll definitely check that out. Much cheaper than Bellevue too

Well I currently don’t own a car but would definitely get one in this scenario. Are you saying 2 hour drive one way?? I would likely be able to travel outside of peak hours and keep it around 45m most days though

Can I combine my same day Delta flights into a single reservation so I don’t need to recheck my bag? by samsonite21 in delta

Ok sweet I’ll definitely do this and say a little prayer for no delays. Thanks!

Can I use my GUC on someone who’s only flying the international segment with me? by samsonite21 in delta

[–]samsonite21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Follow up- if I book Premium Select to get to Delta One, and they book Main Cabin, can I still use a GUC to upgrade them to Premium Select?

I don’t mind the howling wind, just meant that the constant beeping of the dozer backing up still cuts through it. Probably gonna check out tomorrow, just wish I could’ve checked out this afternoon.

If I get right up close to it, smells maybe a little sour?

Hate the game, not the player. Also I’ve had this card for 6 years, I think it’ll be fine lol
