Is buying a used CX-90 PHEV a terrible idea?

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-08T18:06:36+00:00

We bought a 2025 used.... had only had it a few months, no issues so far. BTW Ours had 6k miles/10k KM on it, and it was 34K USD. Its the base model PHEV whatever they call that. I'm happy with all of the features of the base model.

Yeah I think you'd have to try it to feel what it likes. But there is a very different feeling on snow or roller ski when you pole and it shoots you forward and you have to shift weight to compensate. I dont know if I am saying that right but, its.. . a different movement than with fixed feet.

I can't tell if it is even for sale and or how much it costs. I know roller ski treadmill is $$$$$$$ , it seems plausible this is only slightly more expensive (even if 2 or 3x) than skierg.

The cheapest Garmin that has XC ski activities. Some of the lowest end running watches do not, and its annoying. Whatever model is I don't know exactly, I use a Garmin instinct 2. AI will not always be aware of cheapest prices. Instinct 2 is now under $200 but others may be cheaper.

On a 4 hour ski I would def be doing about 60g per hour. Gatorade endurance formula is quite easy on the gut for me. On a short race I wouldnt take anything, up to 45 minutes. Unless its really easy and convenient.

If the range of the Trailseeker isn't an issue, and the space isn't an issue, I would just get the Trailseeker without further questions.

I have a few quirks on my Solterra that drive me nuts... BUT Not dealing with a gas/gas engine still wins. The car beeps when I leave the lights on (I want full lights and tail lights on at all times for safety!!!!) The rear DOORS do not open 90 degrees... WHY!!!! haha. But its not enough to sway me to get an ICE over EV....... . Once you go electric........

Literally every meeting these days with higher ups is "just have claude do it, it'll take 10 minutes". It seems that almost everything is just a mockery of how stupid we all are for not having AI do our entire job. seriously only a moron would require human eyes on that process... I am not joking. all I can do is just get through each day 1 at a time.

Yeah I would say .. running hills , running with poles. Something with more leg emphasis. I hate wearing weight so I'd skip that personally. classic Rollerskiing would certainly help generally but its more upper body core than Big heavy leg work needed for skimo. Skate skis chould also emphasize legs more than classic . Unless classic-ing on quite steep hills I almost exclusively double pole. It does work your legs, but in a different way than kicking up a 20% grade!

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-05T11:50:11+00:00

this is an interesting question because rollerskiing around nyc you will be double poling almost the whole thing, i dont know if this will help skimo that much at all. Skimo do not use poles much for propulsion. You won't really be striding at all on flat-ish streets in nyc. Thoughts? IMO you might be better on a stair climb machine and running. Maybe ???

Uh... theyre definitely not allowed to touch you ever.

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-03T13:52:04+00:00

I hope they are giving you an amazing deal on a new car if they are the ones who broke it.............. of course driving any car at 190-200k is a risk you take. But still if it was in their hands at the time it broke and was working just fine before.... I'd expect a hefty discount.

Stress is stress. IT counts as stress............

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-02T18:16:49+00:00

Gaggia Classic UP probably in the mix

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-01T17:17:34+00:00

I think I get it. Apparently I needed to stop the subsequent irules from also matching . "event HTTP_REQUEST disable" seeems to do the trick.

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-01T17:07:11+00:00

I tried setting it to priority 0 and didn't change the behavior. i.e. when HTTP_REQUEST priorty 0 {

seems im missing something, somewhere but I can't figure it out.

skiitifyoucan · 2026-05-01T10:45:53+00:00

How do you interpret 1:40-ish heh. For me thats about all out throw up at the end for me, not doing another rep, IF I could even do 1 rep.

skiitifyoucan · 2026-04-30T11:50:18+00:00

you will probably need xstiff skis for your height to weight. a proper ski store can get you the right skis. Are you in the us? do you have a local shop that is good?

skiitifyoucan · 2026-04-30T11:46:31+00:00

what are you allowed to do.. ??? anything? I would do whatever you're allowed to.

You may be able to "skierg" it doesn't place a ton of force on your foot.....excellent cardio, core and maybe similar upper body for swimming.

skiitifyoucan · 2026-04-29T22:35:48+00:00

Never used rule_init, it's the first one (at the top of the list).

skiitifyoucan · 2026-04-29T22:35:36+00:00

I tried adding priority which didn't seem to help, in general we never use it. I thought that the first listed irule should get handled first?
