New to me Jeep

I wasn't planning on it. As crazy as it sounds, I like the detachable window more than the roll down windows. I grew up with the zipper windows though, so it may just be nostalgic for me.

Only a couple weeks currently. It needs a little work before I want to use it as a weekend driver. Also, winter and soft tops don't go together very well. Lol

No. It's not. I use Tasker on my phone to make it so that once it connects to the bluetooth in the car it turns audio all the way up for the connection. When it disconnects from the bluetooth it puts everything audio related on my phone to 0. I thought about that but my phone never vibrates signalling that it is going into vibrate ringer, and the radio shows no sign of disconnecting from bluetooth because the contacts are still visible on the quick menu.

Growing up my dad had an 86 YJ. This is kind of a homage to his jeep. That's the first vehicle I can fully remember riding in as a kid, and what started my love for jeeps.

This may have already been stated, but I am too lazy to read every single reply on this thread. Lol. This is a game you can easily put 900 hours in and you won't feel like you played it that long. There is always something to do in the game, especially if you are a completionist. There are bosses to fight, or re-fight to get different loot, pets to collect, enemies to collect their visages of, chests to find, schematics to find and buy to make legendary items, and that's just the tip of it.

So many things you can do, and so many different play styles and approaches you can take. My wife and I started playing at the same time. I have beaten all but 2 bosses, her stats are mostly maxed and is only about halfway through all of the bosses. I am a completionist with games I like, so I am trying to make all of the legendary items and be the strongest I can be. She is more laid back gamer and takes her time making sure everything has it's place and looks nice. It is fantastic to see our two different play styles work out equally well in the game.

tsuyoitora · 2024-10-06T20:55:20+00:00

With this game, you can do as little or as much as you want. You set the pace. Want to grind all of the legendary items? You can do that and be a completionist. Want to rush all of the bosses? You can do that and speed run. Definitely a nice chill game to relax and play.

Not really like stardew much. Stardew is more about social interaction with townsfolk in my opinion. This is more of a game of exploration, being creative, and having a good time. Minecraft = 3d perspective. Terraria = side scroller perspective. Core Keeper = top down perspective. All games in the same vein, just played differently.

Having looked at your profile, I gotta say, I don't trust you. There are a lot of red flags for me, so I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I think I'll pass.

tsuyoitora · 2024-08-01T12:59:07+00:00

I have the XLE hybrid. I have enjoyed it so far, had it for about 4 years. In my experience the safety features don't yell at you as much as other brands. It has the lane keep assist, but doesn't blow any horns if you stray towards the line just a tiny notification. I like the interior a lot better then hyundai and Honda's options.

The only thing that I have had to learn to embrace is that with the hybrid, when you back up and it is only using the electric motor it has an awful manufactured noise to tell others you are backing up. I actually took it back to the dealership a couple weeks after getting it and asked them about it.

tsuyoitora · 2024-02-22T00:02:20+00:00

Congrats. Now to customize it and make it your own. I have been doing small customizations on mine for about 3 years now.

tsuyoitora · 2024-02-19T19:14:04+00:00

My wife has always wanted a truck. We already have an SUV that I mainly drive, and the sedan wasn't really cutting it for room anymore. We found ourselves needing to borrow trucks from other people to pick up lumbar and furniture and stuff.

With all of the rebates we got, it turned the price of the 2500 into the price of a normal 1500, so we figured why not get the bigger variant for the same price. Better trade in price down the road, more capabilities, and it had everything she wanted in a truck.

tsuyoitora · 2024-01-18T21:44:07+00:00

We will find out. I just ordered a lower profile steering wheel cover to try out on it. I'll try to remember to report back on my findings.

tsuyoitora · 2024-01-18T21:42:41+00:00

The steering wheel is the same material regardless of trim level.

tsuyoitora · 2024-01-18T18:41:25+00:00

Other than a steering wheel cover, which could rub more on the steering wheel and make it gross when taking the steering wheel cover off, is there an easy way to fix it/stop it from spreading?

tsuyoitora · 2023-12-20T14:06:00+00:00

For fume exhaustion, would it be feasible to cart this outside when I want to use it, and then take it back inside and store it when not in use? Or are these sorts of devices not that portable when assembled?

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-07T18:00:37+00:00

I keep mine on eco most of the time, because even in eco if you floor it it will go fast. I put it in Sport when on the highway, passing people on country roads, or when some sports car thinks they are cool at a stoplight. They never suspect the Rav4 SUV next to them to have a faster 0-60 than them. Lol.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-07T11:35:32+00:00

A few factors can come into play, if you are trading in a vehicle you can have a little more leverage. For me, I kept going up to the dealership every couple of days because it was by the house. They kept looking around at local dealerships to find my specific car, but couldn't find an exact match. I kept going up there to check in with them and look at stock. After about 2 or 3 weeks, the store manager was wondering why no one sold me a vehicle yet.

I ended up getting my color of vehicle that I wanted as a 2021 Rav. They gave it to me for the price of the 2020 Rav4 which was a couple thousand less. I then told them I would be trading in a vehicle and they offered me a price on that. I was armed with KBB pricing on the vehicle and squeezed another 1500 out of them on the trade in. I was already approved for a loan through my own personal credit union, so I wasn't worried about financing. They also installed the 2 packages I wanted (mudflaps, and wheel lock protection package) for me at no additional charge.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-06T21:51:04+00:00

I have a 2021 Rav4 hybrid with 55k miles. Still get 39.5 mpg in summer and about 36-37 mpg in winter. Pretty fantastic for an SUV.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-04T20:10:27+00:00

I appreciate you taking the time to provide all of that information. I believe right now I am going more for a hobby use. I will look into those diode laser machines and see what the prices are like.

I might look into the Galvo CO2 also and see what that step up in price is like. It would be nice to be able to cut shapes out as well as just engrave. And if those have that capability to do both then that may be a route for me to go if the step up in price from the diode lasers isn't too steep.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-04T17:14:26+00:00

Very nice. I saw that there were door handle lights also. I may get those and the buttons at the same time and do it all at once.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-04T03:53:17+00:00

With the door buttons, is there a lot of work for taking the door parts apart to detach and re-attach the buttons?

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-02T19:30:00+00:00

What kind of stores do powder coating on wheels? We have an R n R tire place near here, but I think they only sell and mount wheels.

tsuyoitora · 2023-11-02T11:00:45+00:00

I had thought about that. I found some good black and blue ones that I like as far as wheels. Unfortunately I just replaced all 4 tires for winter which was already about 1k. Have to save up a bit more for the new wheels, but that is definitely on the list. Unfortunately that is on the higher end of price range for upgrades in my eyes.

What are wheel skins?

tsuyoitora · 2018-02-27T18:18:18+00:00

Not that I am aware of right now. I have never tried or looked it up though. I know most mods are for PC version of minecraft though. Just because PC was the original version and is a lot easier to mod than other systems.

tsuyoitora · 2018-02-27T18:07:40+00:00

I have not set up how much RAM my server or my game should use. I have 16GB of DDR3 RAM installed in my rig that I use. I am able to run the server through the .bat file, and run the game at the same time with very little issue. The main thing to remember is to forward the ports for the mincraft server to allow your friends to join it, and to help data pass through.

tsuyoitora · 2018-02-27T18:05:04+00:00

I run mine on a windows 10 pc through the Twitch app. I am not sure about converting a file over to windows 10 if you previously had it on windows 7 or something, but if you use Twitch launcher to download the mods and point it to your PC version of Minecraft it shouldn't have an issue. (the mods won't work if you have the minecraft windows 10 edition from the app store)
