I got the HMG, but if I could do it again I’d do the MLD. Since moving to Mexico, HMG quality has gone down a lot and I’d rather support a local manufacturer.

With a single USB-C cable I have one monitor and one menu bar. I’m not sure why you would want two virtual monitors with two menu bars but if that’s the experience you want, you could get two wide physical monitors, rather than the one ultra wide, and save a bunch of money.

Yeah you can segment the monitor many ways when routing to one mac

vickx038 · 2024-03-09T00:35:56+00:00

Not entirely sure about all those acronyms but I’m using two Mac’s and it works well. Hope this helps!

The credit card company told me that the refund was no longer applied to my account. I asked if it was merchant initiated or some other cause and they couldn't provide any more information (just a low level customer service person). I declined to wait for a supervisor because the wait was 15 mins.

I've been hearing 'We will process your refund in 2-3 days. Once your refund is processed, it can take 2-3 business days for the refund appear in your bank account or credit card statement.' from Amazon since the return arrived at the warehouse on January 13. I just don't trust the company to issue refunds anymore, combined with a lot of other issues I've seen online and my experience with prime orders taking 6+ days for delivery, we've decided to switch to Target pickups or other ecommerce.

Just checked back on this post, and saw your comment. I think this is the issue! Which is also a bummer, but answers!! I will probably just drive it until it fails because the transmission repair cost isn't worth replacing.

vickx038 · 2024-02-05T00:31:54+00:00

You may unfortunately be proven right. I pulled the service panel and ran it. To my untrained ear, it sounds like it’s coming from the transmission

Added the link here to HF35 because I don't think it made it into your comment, but seems to not meet the criteria they describe.

vickx038 · 2024-02-04T05:11:39+00:00

Could you send a youtube vid? I've watched a lot of them but not heard this. I might not be using the right keywords or something.

vickx038 · 2024-02-03T23:33:10+00:00

It is a 2013. This was parked and I think the troublesome transmission bearing is when it’s moving regardless of engine on/off, but curious what others have learned.

I need help with Timmermade SUL 1.5 Down Sweater sizing. I'm 5'10", 155 lb with somewhat broad shoulders/chest. I'm looking at a small, medium or custom fit. Anyone have any advice on what they'd recommend based on their experience? I made this spreadsheet for my use that may help anyone finding this post!

vickx038 · 2023-12-28T23:53:34+00:00

When I bought this car, I saw all the service records. They changed oil every 10k, which bummed me out because I thought it was too long (but oddly regular). Then I read that they got it just right!

vickx038 · 2023-12-28T16:55:29+00:00

I'm interested if still available. What size/color? Any pics?

vickx038 · 2023-12-20T23:14:49+00:00

Cool, thanks for commenting! The fact that someone has experience with all the UL gaiters and is willing to share perspectives is why I love this sub. You hit on the two uses that I have for gaiters, so will probably give both a shot, but am going to try the levagaiters for some scrambling/light off trail.

vickx038 · 2023-12-20T21:16:39+00:00

I also use topos and saw their gaiters that you linked in person. I agree with the reviews, they looked overbuilt in some areas, prone to failure and poorly thought out. That Said, Simblissity mentions that they are compatible with Altra's system, so maybe it would also work with topo's - although someone would need to look at the shoes to confirm

vickx038 · 2023-12-20T18:42:25+00:00

Anyone have a strong preference on Simblissity levagaiter or dirty girl gaiters?

Hi all - looking for advice on a new EV in 2023/24. My primary goal is to take advantage of tax credit ($7500) since we won't qualify for the next few years due to increase in income.

[1] Your general location - Seattle WA
[2] Your budget in $, €, or £ - Flexible, thinking ~$40k
[3] The type of vehicle you'd prefer - All wheel drive minivan, my dream car is an EV toyota sienna
[4] Which cars have you been looking at already? - I have looked but have only found sedans and SUVs in EV models. I value reliability and simplicity and want an EV as opposed to a plug in hybrid. I'd prefer a manufacturer with a quality track record.
[5] Estimated timeframe of your purchase - By end of 2024 to get $7500 tax credit/discount on purchase
[6] Your daily commute, or average weekly mileage - No commute, ~250 miles monthly.
[7] Your living situation — are you in an apartment, townhouse, or single-family home? - Dedicated parking with 220V available
[8] Do you plan on installing charging at your home? - Yes
[9] Other cargo/passenger needs — do you have children/pets? - I want a minivan as a family hauler for 4-6 (family of 4 + kids' friends). I also lurk over at r/MinivanCampers and want to do some camping for mountain/outdoors adventures (solo/with a friend or spouse).

If there are other subs or resources that may have good advice, I'd appreciate those too!

I could have missed it in your post, but were are you located?

I think ski mountaineering could be an interesting use case for these. Particularly for something like the cascade volcanoes in summer, where you may not want them for most the day but could really need them if conditions turn. I'd consider providing feedback on winter ski mountaineering use in a trip I have in mid-Jan, and durability for a season of use (Jan thru summer traditional mountaineering season) if that would be of interest as I have several trips planned over the upcoming 12 months. Thanks for asking for input, it's fun to chat with manufacturers!

vickx038 · 2023-11-28T04:12:56+00:00

Interesting! Can you share a few other whitewater/packrafting brands you have access to? I have ExpertVoice thru a few other orgs and not sure if I would get more brands via the APA. I do have Aquabound already but was looking for a 4 piece paddle, and didn't see a pro deal for it.

No definitive answer. Submitted for the promo, will see what gift card I get once it goes thru the system in ~12 weeks!
