Do you think they did the reset or do you think they didn't?
-
I haven't used cash since probably March. 99% of the payments I make are contactless now. Most stuff goes on my Fidelity card so I get 2% cash back.... I pay with my apple watch or through the vendor's app (Starbucks / Dunkin / BK). My Lowe's card can be shown as a barcode in the App. Same with Target card. I just bought a 15.7 cu/ft chest freezer that will be delivered on 11/18 and we're going to start stocking up again. We're also going to look into signing up for grocery delivery soon to avoid the stores. Got our flu shots on Sunday and I want to get a pneumonia shot since I've had pneumonia twice before. Hunkering down for a long isolated winter.

It seems to be really fast now on my end. We're probably going to have an app version of the site soon too.... just waiting approval.
-
Looking into it. I ran some updates, let me know if you see a change on your end Also, don’t use Caffeine theme. It’s for the old version of this software and I need to uninstall it
-
I just saw one of those right after being totaled. The car was still on the side of the road with the family, safe, giving statements to police. A dump truck pulled too close to the driver side of the STS, hooked onto it and started dragging the STS down the road. The entire driver's side was destroyed.
-
Well I don't know what I finally did to fix it... but at least it is working now.
-
Well that wasn't fun, but everything is upgraded now. You're probably getting a "Not Secure" message from your browser. I'm working on that now.
-
Major software update today, that is what changed the theme. I had been holding off on doing the upgrade because not all of our add-on apps were compatible. I'm still putting things back together. I will be taking the site down later this afternoon as I have some server upgrades to do as well.
-
Thanks! We pick it up in about 2 hours.
-
It’s almost exactly 50% deprecation in 3 years assuming the original owner paid MSRP, (I doubt they did, but still).
-
@ocnblu is the best at this. He got the Avalanche too. 2017 Chrysler 300C, AWD, white with the linen interior. CarPlay, heated/ventilated seats, pano sunroof, adaptive cruise with lane keep assist. 18,700 miles for $24k
-
No to both. Fusion Hybrid is not AWD. Notice i said that there is faulty data in @David’s list? The car is there, but he eliminated it from one of the lists when he shouldn’t have. That also implies that none of the cars in his final list are it.
-
Cooled seats are usually referred to by manufacturers as ventilated seats. Large sunroofs are called Panoramic Sunroof. Your list is incomplete.
-
It is not the G80.
-
Very commendable logic. However there is an error in your data. The vehicle is in your original list but didn't make it to your final list due to faulty data. And the S90 is not it.
-
That was the runner up. Found a loaded 2017 Regal with adaptive cruise and the mocha brown interior with 35,000. I just felt it was too small inside for what we want to do. If we weren’t hauling his parents, it would be fine.
-
Well I think we made a decision. I still want him to drive it first. To avoid claims of misdirection, he decided that the SUVs that fit his criteria were more than he wanted to spend, so we went back to sedans. He loosened the restrictions on interior color and allowed for anything that wasn’t all black. Found 2 options and I’ve driven both from different manufacturers. The one I settled on is a 2017, has CarPlay, heated / cooled seats, adaptive cruise, huge sunroof, AWD. Only 18,000 miles edit: oh and it’s not the CTS
-
We’re looking at most brands. Only Nissan/Infiniti, Hyundai/Kia (not Genesis), and Mitsubishi are under general veto.
-
Oddly, I was ambivalent about the CTS. I liked the first and second generations, but the 3rd gens really didn't do much for me except in V or V-Sport trim, neither of which are options because they only come in RWD. It's not really him getting into and out of the vehicle. It's getting his parents in and out. Since they don't drive anymore, we cart them around places, so his vehicle purchase has to account for them. He's being a pain though... he's vetoed anything with an all black interior now. He wants a nice brown interior like we have in our Encore.
-
2018 Cadillac CTS AWD V6 Luxury Group He actually picked it out, but now he thinks he wants to stick with an SUV.
-
The Encore's time with us is nearing its end. It needs tires, brakes, and possibly a master cylinder. When I was under it last weekend installing new LED headlights and fog lamps I noticed oil coating the oil pan and the coolant reservoir tank was nearly empty. We've had a coolant leak issue before when the thermostat housing cracked. It's not exhibiting any symptoms currently beside the tank being low... but it lit up my radar. Carvana is offering $8,200 in trade for a 2013 Encore with 101k miles... so I think I'd be dumb not to take that offer up before I have to sink $1,200+ dollars into it. That's the trap we got caught in with the CR-V, we kept sinking money into it thinking we'd hold on to it longer, but it would only last about 2 months before it demanded more money. So we had a car picked out as of last night, but Albert is having doubts, so I'm canceling the purchase process. Watch this space.

Only on the base trim? That's super odd. What does the upper trim come with? Fix-a-Flat?
