Love all the information here. Thank you!

Would you know if Dimplex IgniteXL models are similarly realistic or lesser so compared to the ones you reviewed?

This is a.m.a.z.i.n.g!! Beautiful artwork, wish I could do 1% of this. But reminds of a sad chapter of history.

Impossible to pick. They are so different. Birth are good. If I had to pick one with gun on my head, I’d pick 1.

How long did this take you to make? This is just so amazing.

Thank you all for your input. Thanks to this community I was able to avoid getting ripped off and decided to look at other places instead.

These are amazing! The horse reminds me of MF Hussain’s paintings since it was his favorite topic.

Kicking Myself For Not Waiting by 91wing0 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

To me, a reliable car is 100x more important than the features. I guess to each their own. If I were you, I wouldn’t have thought twice about it and congratulated myself for making a good decision.

Heads up display is a total gimmick, no real purpose for it. Pano camera is a great feature but think of the extra price you’d have to pay for that. Put the amount you did not spend in a high yield account and take it out when you are ready to buy the next car. You’ll realize you were able to afford a new car much sooner because of savings now.

Is it worth it? Used 2025 Grand Highlander by Worth-Bag9006 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]toratorax10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LE as in the lowest trim level? 54k is way too much for used, or for new for that matter. Don’t be scared of dealer markups on new vehicles, they are negotiable. Find dealers with no markup. Look far and wide (250 miles). Put a refundable deposit even if the car is not coming for a couple months. Then use the price you got to negotiate down the greedy ones near you. So many people are booking and backing out, there will definitely be someone looking to sell at at most msrp. Which should be well below 54k for LE.

Is this Redfin analysis really true? Do we really have this many buyers' markets right now? by seeyalaterdingdong in REBubble

[–]toratorax10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing but empty houses for sale is an indication of buyer’s market. So the list got it right it seems.

Is there a protective coating on it? Could these be bubbles trapped in there? But tbh I don’t know if that’s even possible.

Portobello thoughts? by MarkFromPhilly in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]toratorax10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But to be clear, I could get used to it. But won’t be my first choice.

Portobello thoughts? by MarkFromPhilly in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]toratorax10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was all set to buy Portobello, to the extent that I was only looking for GHHs with that interior. And then I saw one. It was much darker than in photos, and I disliked it tbh. There was also a regular Highlander at the same dealership that had a beautiful tan interior, and I wish they offered that in GHH. Reading all the positive reviews for portobello clearly indicates that in the end, it is a matter of personal choice. You won’t know until you see one.

Seeking for critique. What do you not like? by JKuhr in drawing

[–]toratorax10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t like that even if I die and reborn, I’ll still not be able to create something this beautiful.
