Cars for 3000

I noticed a lot of noise coming from the front passenger side of the car when going over bumps and stuff. So I took my car in then they said I needed struts all around.
Les Schwab is a Pacific Northwest tire chain. I always feel like they are really expensive for what they do.
Here's a copy of their quote.
So I guess my first question is, does this pricing seem out of line?
Do I really need the rear struts replaced as well?
Would I be better off taking it to a mom and pop shop or a shop that specializes in this sort of thing, and if so, what would that type of shop be called?
This is my daily driver. I don’t drive super fast and need to corner or anything. Just want it to be a comfortable ride driving down the highway at 75-80 or around town on crapy bumpy surface streets.
Lastly, I feel like the space between the top of the wheel and the bottom of the fender is too much. Almost like the car needs to be lowered JUST a tad. If I get new struts, I’m assuming that’s the time to ask to have it lowered a bit. But I’m not sure how. Do I say to lower it an inch?

I was in a terrible car accident last in March of 2022. From the accident I have had two surgeries so far. The trial is in August. 95% of my communication is via email with my lawyer. My lawyer had stated numerous times that we had a very good chance at winning. He laid out all the numbers. He stated how much I’d get for emotional duress, pain and suffering. On Monday I received an email from layer claiming the other party wanted to settle. The other party only wants to give enough away to pay my medical bills and attorneys fees.
My lawyer turned into a complete Ahole and stated my case wouldn’t win, I needed to settle etc. before the other side backs out of the case and discovers their not at fault. When they clearly are. My lawyer verbally told me has a great friendship with the other side’s attorney. He said the other attorney has family issue and needs to end this case!!!Isn’t that a conflict of interests? I almost wonder if my lawyer was paid by the other side. He changed his opinion out of no where. I almost feel like legal malpractice was committed. I’m not sure what to do here because I’m so close to trial and getting a higher settlement. Any advice?

Anyone else get this? It happens when I've had the cruise control on but it's paused due to manually breaking for a tight corner. It doesn't happen every time but occasionally the cruise control will turn itself back on whilst cornering, causing the car to speed up midturn which scares the shit out me and is quite dangerous. I'm certain I'm not accidentally hitting the resume button whilst turning.
This only happens when going around a tight bend and at speeds above 20mph. It doesn't do it in a parking lot for example and it's never turned itself on on a straight road.

How was your experience and are you having to pay more monthly if you financed the first car? There’s a couple of anniversary editions coming in and a halo white premium MT. Got my GR86 for 36 otd with taxes and all that.

If you need interstate transportation, think about employing limousine service Ajax. No matter if it is for an event or an airport transfer, powerful people do not want to sacrifice their standards in any way. They prefer the top-tier models even while they are driving a car. if you enjoy leading an aristocratic lifestyle.

So, i'm looking to get a C4 vette in the future, and i plan on it being a project. i have normal jackstands and stuff, however our fleet of cars are all SUVs, and i'd like something that could give enough lift to say, drop the trans for a rebuild, but can fit under the car fine.
i dont have access to a normal lift really, and these would have to fit somewhere in our garage. these seem to give enough room to at least crouch and do things, and they're not crazy expensive either.

I missed the call , I thought a sound woke me up but I couldn't investigate since my son was upset and I had to feed him. I realised after that I'd missed a call, called the number back and that number doesn't allow call backs.
I have never slept well, so I've been awake since then. FINALLY I'm drifting off to sleep...and they call me again at 315 am !! The nurse on the phone even sounded sleepy when I picked up the phone , I feel kind of bad , she asked me "is (my name) available to talk"? Like it was a perfectly normal time to call. I just replied , politely but swiftly that I can't talk right now and hung up.
I feel rude but like seriously ? They can see my complaint of a broken toe they know it's not life threatening /emergent wtaf would they call at those times ?
The most recent phone call didn't wake up husband up but it made the baby stir, now I'm just lying here wide awake again and now I have to get through today with maybe three hours of sleep and a broken toe tomorrow. I can't walk on my foot properly and to top it off my husband picked up ot before this happened for this Fri and sat (usually he's off) so I'm all alone for even longer this week than usual. He has picked up this OT the last wo weeks and I already was feeling emotionally drained then today I get a call from early intervention that they want to come to my house and I get they're there to offer help but my son already has physio set up, he has a million other appts and shit I don't want this person coming to my house in two weeks telling me it would be great for myself and baby to go to some mum and baby group we can't get to because my POS car is broken down, no idea when we can get it to a mechanic to look at because we usually do mechanic stuff Fridays when hubby is off. Oh yeah my son is also way overdue for his 6 months shots because his doctor wanted to delay them due to his health and then I had to miss the last three times I made appts for it, three weeks in a row because of my car not starting. No idea when I can get my son in for his shots.
Sorry , just one of those days. I just needed to vent.
I absolutely love my son and husband. I am so grateful my husband works so hard to allow me to stay home with my son for now. I absolutely love staying home with my son, it's truly a dream come true. I've been doing pretty good I think on getting through the days that I don't get good sleep. That's one thing...not amped to do it on a broken toe though.
Annnd my son just woke up. If you made it this far, thank you.

So I have met this awesome girl and we talk almost everyday also we like each other a lot. We are about to get in a relationship pretty soon. So its her birthday next week and I am planning to make it special. I need some ideas from girls (what would you expect from your partner) and from my boys (how would you plan to make it more romantic) This is the current plan, please add more :

1. I have a car, I will pick her up with some light music and rose petals on front passenger seat.
2. Sun visor will be filled with rose petals, will ask to open it (petals will fall on her)
3. Gifts I purchased so far (1 parker pen, silver anklets, noise air pods and guess perfume)
4. Then will go for a restaurant date with a customized cake, pizzas and 5 dark chocolates
5. At last will take her to shopping in the nearest mall

This is the current plan, feel free to add more or edit

i have a forbidden usa mugen hardtop but i kinda dont like how it looks, its carbon fiber or whatever but the car was left in the sun for 5 years so its like grayish, but either way i like the look of the oem style hard tops
anyway if anyone is willing to trade im in the north california area

Hello hello.
Okay quick confession: I’ve never actually listened to a season of TAZ. I tried with the first few episodes of Balance, but by then I was already so burned out on MBMBaM (like, 2 or 3 eps a day for a few months) that it didn’t draw me in.
Anyway, I figured I’d have a look and see how long it’s been since the last time I listened to an episode of MBMBaM. According to Spotify, I stopped listening weekly halfway through Episode 529: Throw Me in the Dumpster Behind the Applebee’s When I Die, released on September 30 2020. From there, I’d occasionally listen to a minute or two before bailing and made it all the way through Episodes 553, 554, and 564 before giving up altogether the following week, in June 2021.
0:00 – MaxFunDrive ad read by Justin is basically “I’m not gonna waste my time or yours trying to explain why you should support MaxFun, just give us your money!” and honestly, I love laziness disguised as frankness.
0:44 – I feel like they would have quietly removed the “Travis insists he’s a ‘sexpert’” line a while back but they left it too late and now there’ve been enough weird Travis Moments that it’d make people assume something scandalous was about to surface if they changed it.
1:02 – My music tastes are a little eclectic but mostly pretty basic, with a big emphasis on upbeat alt and indie pop, so I should enjoy the Montaigne song, but nope! At least I never liked the old one much, so it’s not a downgrade.
[Obligatory semi-relevant anecdote: I took a solo trip to Melbourne a couple of weeks ago as a little birthday present to myself, both to visit some friends and to go see Carly Rae Jepsen in concert, since she wasn’t coming here to New Zealand on her tour. Probably the best concert I’ve ever been to!]
1:54 – Already tensed for the incoming Travis intro bit
2:10 – Okay it’s a “we have to raise enough money to save the podcast from being demolished by the local billionaire” joke. And he’s called Dr Guhart (sp?). Fine. I know that premise has been a touchstone of Western pop culture for decades, but I wonder how much longer it can last. Are younger Gen Z kids making jokes about having to win a ski race to save the rec centre? What’s the modern equivalent? Make a GoFundMe that’s immediately drowned out by all the cancer patients? Camp out in the replies of MrBeast’s tweets trying to convince him to monetise your plight?
“[I]f we don’t raise a bunch of money, he’s gonna turn our podcast into a place where they grind up puppies into sausages.” Travis is really good at making his setups sound rehearsed and unnatural. I don’t need a great acting performance when someone’s doing an improv bit on a podcast, but please don’t make it sound like you cycled through every possible combination of evil act and innocent victim before landing on the one you thought sounded the most comically cruel.
2:58 – “If we raise enough money we can legally murder Dr Guhart.” Okay I like this one better.
4:00 – Not to be a killjoy or anything but Dr Phil is a) irrelevant and b) awful. I don’t need a 30-second bit about him with no punchline.
7:40 – Twee Travis comes to the table, in what I can only characterise as his 20% baby voice, with the classic “you don’t have to tweet it; you can just go back to the old-school tweets where you just whisper it to a bird and then you let the bird go and then the bird comes and finds us and whispers it to us.” I am 90% sure he’s said this exact joke (?) before and it’s never been cute or funny!!!
8:25 – Justin’s pre-question bird question feels like something they’ve already discussed several times already but I don’t know if I’m just wired to hear everything they say as derivative.
12:40 – Question 1: How do I show off my yo-yoing skills to my colleague, who introduced me to the hobby, now that he no longer yo-yos?
Seemed kinda promising at first with the stuff about Riverdance yo-yoing, but there were a couple of not-so-comical misunderstandings between the three of them. Justin makes a reference to 'nipple-height as a shorthand for the exact thing they're all talking about and Griffin assumes he's being suggestive for no reason.
16:54 – Question 2: Can I sit in front of the CostCo TVs and just watch an entire movie? Is there anything wrong with treating CostCo as a low-cost movie theatre?
Being repetitive is the most unavoidable of the podcasting sins, but it’s wild to come back to MBMBaM and hear that the questions are still “I want to do a slightly weird thing in public. Am I good?” and Griffin’s immediate response is still “There’s nothing stopping you except the unspoken social bond of our shared humanity.”
24:30 – Ahhhhhhh Travis is trying to sell me on their bonus content. He starts with the $5 level and then passes over to Justin, who was not listening closely enough to know what had and had not already been covered. Never change!
27:27 – They make a joke about how the unedited naming ep stretch goal is worse than seeing how the sausage gets made but they don’t even call back to Travis’ stupid puppy sausage bit. Amateurs!
27:36 – At least they’re self-aware about the BYOP pizza party stretch goal being a bit shit. Not surprised to learn that it was Justin’s idea. Never change!!!
30:30 – “Brown recluse bite. Almost died. Didn’t. Can’t?” Okay this got a wry smile out of me. It’s been said time and time again on this sub, but Justin has a lot of comedic talent as soon as he bothers to put in a teensy bit of effort.
30:38 – Oh boy it’s time for my first ever Wizard of the Cloud segment.
31:10 – WikiHow to Run a Teddy School
This concept has no legs. Griffin’s angle is basically just “Isn’t this crazy??” and, I mean, yeah I guess so, but without a personal anecdote or question to latch on to there’s nothing here for me to find entertaining. From previous episode threads I feel like this is how it always goes, right? A deliberately ~wild~ WikiHow is chosen and then the brothers react to it like “damn, this is wild”.
35:42 – Travis has never seen Paddington or Paddington 2 and I hope he never does because he doesn’t deserve to.
38:55 – Justin and Travis both balk at the absurdity of expecting teddy bears to pass a toy to each other when they’re inanimate objects and Griffin rightfully points out that they’ve been talking about the concept of Teddy Bear School for several minutes now and this is an issue you probably have to make your peace with before engaging with the topic.
39:15 – They double down on this as if they don’t understand how children’s make-believe works. Yes, you’re going to have to physically move the bears yourself! The WikiHow writer is playing in the fictional space of Teddy Bear School. Are they seriously expecting the article to read “using your hands, manipulate the bears’ bodies and limbs to simulate the actions of walking, talking, eating, and playing”?
Griffin concedes the point because he wants this to be over. I don’t concede but I agree that we need to get out of this comedy black hole.
40:19 – Question 3: How can I eat soup powerfully during my lunch hour instead of looking like a peasant? (??????????????????)
Yeah baybeee! This is the MBMBaM content I crave! I love these cart-before-the-horse questions, where you can tell the listener started with the desire to submit a question – any question – and then scrambled to contrive a problem in their life that they could shape into this high-calorie, low-nutrition comedy slop.
It’s a food question, so it’s guaranteed to get a little bit of interest from Justin. The premise is vague enough that it’s easy for Travis to interject with something irrelevant and uninteresting in the name of being wacky. It’s a social dilemma that isn’t really a dilemma at all, so they can hopefully tie it up at the end by gently letting the listener know that they don’t have real problems.
Justin starts off in a strange direction by suggesting that the only way to eat soup powerfully is to eat it quickly, like a starving runaway taken in by a kindly stranger, which is so clearly incorrect it’s making my head spin. If we’re really gonna try and psychoanalyse the power dynamics of eating, I'd say that wolfing down your food signals a sense of desperation, or perhaps a fear that someone will come and take the food away. That’s peak Dickensian peasant! Eating food slowly suggests a) that you’re really enjoying it and b) that you have all the time in the world. You’re in no rush! Everything’s under control and you’re free to savour your delicious veggie soup. You didn’t just make it because it’s easy and it fits with your restrictive diet: veggie soup is your favourite.
42:25 – Travis has a bad idea about eating soup from a tumbler labelled with a soup-related title, e.g. 'Soup Doctor, PhD'. Griffin riffs on this with the mildly funny idea of having “Caught ya looking!” written on the bottom of a soup bowl for when you slurp up the last of it, but Travis ruins it by suggesting that you instead put a picture of you with another soup bowl and a different message on that bowl (he doesn’t provide an example of a funny message). It’s like they’re playing tennis but Travis has a little bit of poop on his racquet.
“Have someone else feed the soup to you” is a decent Travis answer which he then ruins with the pointless addition of a narrative where the listener saved that person’s life in the war.
46:19: Title drop! ‘Travis’s Fast Soup Cup For Boys’ would have made me laugh in 2019. Now it just blurs together with everything else.
47:20 – More MaxFun stuff. I’m kinda tempted by the MaxFun recipe book, for jerking purposes.
51:27 – Least surprising segue into Munch Squad ever. Apparently, this is the first in a while, so it better be a good one!
52:06 – Chipotle has added Chicken Al Pastor to menus worldwide. Cool. We don’t have Chipotle here in New Zealand, but its reputation precedes it.
I don’t share the brothers’ discomfort with using the word ‘protein’ as a catch-all for meats/beans/quinoa/etc. in a meal description. Travis acknowledges that it’s inclusive of non-meat options but says we can come up with something better. To be honest, I don’t even think that’s why I use the term. Even setting aside vegetarian options, I think saying “chicken is my favourite protein” sounds less weird than “chicken is my favourite meat”. Maybe it’s a regional thing?
It’s very funny how much of Munch Squad is just Justin being pedantic about phrasing and word choices in a press release he’s reading for free. Oh, they said “craveable” twice? They’re implying that their Chicken Al Pastor might differ from the traditional dish? What a scoop!
55:55 – Buffalo Wild Wings has a Bed & Breakfast. Okay I looked this up and the articles I found were from March 2020 (oof). We also don’t have Buffalo Wild Wings in New Zealand.
1:00:06 – Baskin-Robbins introducing chick’n and waffles ice-cream as the March flavour of the month. Obviously, it can’t have real chicken in it, so the whole concept is terrifying, but the jokes about it are only okay. I actually had to look this one up, but we’re three for three: we do not have Baskin-Robbins here in New Zealand.
I was going to make some comment about cultural osmosis and how it’s wild that I’ve passively absorbed so much information about all these brands without ever patronising them myself, but when it comes to American cultural exports it’s more like active transport (little joke for all you cell physiology nerds out there).
1:04:15: They started talking about ‘Daniel’ and it took me a while to remember from previous episode threads that Justin has been doing a zero-effort Daniel Day-Lewis impression as a running gag lately. Luckily I’ve got him on his week off.
1:08:00 – Did not realise that they started reading random quotes from unexpected sources as an outro. I guess it’s on-brand to finish with a joke where the punchline substitutes mild surprise in place of actual comedy.
That wasn’t an awful listening experience, but if I didn’t write all this stuff down I would not remember any of it. It didn't inspire me to go back to listening weekly, but it wasn't so bad that I'd never put myself up for a recap again.

Hi everyone, i just posted this in a different subreddit and was directed here because it feels like the only explanation, so i figured id share what happened here as well
“Hey everyone im really freaking out all day today and was wondering if anyone has any hot takes on what’s happened
Long story short i was in a mild car crash yesterday, i got rear ended at a stop light in rainy slippery conditions, i banged up my leg pretty hard and the back of my car was smashed in, did a police report, filed a claim all good all done
Today i walk out to my car and its as good as new, zero dents, not even a scratch- NO evidence of the crash
I swear im not a schitzo and i have no explanation, i stood there starring at it for like half hour touching the surface trying to figure out HOW?!!!
Did i quantum jump? A glitch in the matrix? Magic? Did i die in the crash and now living in some alternate reality “Final Destination” style?! How does a metal unbend itself over night?”

Today I ran into a guy who claimed to be an employee of Doordash. He was picking up an order at On The Border but said that he didn’t work through the Doordash Dasher app. He was suited in a Doordash t-shirt and khakis and said he once had a hat (he claimed to have lost it).
He told me that he was “possibly quality control” but that he wasn’t 100% sure but he knew that he was for sure not a Driver as he didn’t pick up orders under the “Doordash Driver” app. He scolded me for wanting to inform the employee of the restaurant to make sure they knew I picked up the order before leaving, even though he never asked for my name (and was alarmed to find I was a Top Dasher and have a rating of 4.98 (last I checked)). He was driving in a Chevy Malibu that was like a 2010 or so that I saw… (I drive a 2019 Toyota Corolla, idk if that matters at all!)
He also said he was paid $15 an hour, an hourly wage secured by Doordash. To be clear, this is in Arkansas where we have no guaranteed pay for Dashers. I make about $12 an hour as a driver in town (I drive about 30 hours a week, and make around $12 hours a week — less if you consider costs by gas costs, car depreciation, and such).
He was also under the impression that drivers make $30 a week (lol I’ve been a full time driver (-ish, 30-40 hours a week) since May 2022 and NEVER HAVE I EVER made $30 a week, even in LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA!!!) so I’m convinced he wasn’t lying, based on that romanticised view of dashing where I live.
Has anyone run into someone like this? It’s wild and I’ve dashed in somewhere around 20 states and never met someone like this before today… let me know!

So i work in JLT, and for parking my car, i got a kaccha lot opposite of where i work. Ofcourse it was paid (900 for 3 Months), but now that ground is being closed and all the other parkings available in the whole of JLT is 2500 for 3 months 💀. I searched for RTA seasonal parking but its not available in JLT’s J Zone. Coming without a car is impossible because I live in sharjah. Redditors of Dubai, show me a way!

Is there any way to find how much someone could borrow from various banks on the same income over the past 10 years (or longer)?
For example: someone with no kids, one car, earning $100k using the banks minimum monthly expenses would be able to borrow:
ANZ $760k BNZ $630k ASB $580k WTP $603k
It gives a rough indication on Bank appetite. I also have a sneaking suspicion this would correlate reasonably well to REINZ statistics.

I am a 22F driver and I am really struggling with severe anxiety when I drive a car. I got my license recently. When I know I'll have to I'll anticipate anxiety for hours, sometimes a whole day. I've been trying to get into a car and driving to and back from a place twice a week, but I'm still feeling anxious about it. Whenever I make a mistake I keep running it in my head over and over for days and can't get it out. I think I'm just not very good at it. Has anyone else struggled with fear of driving? At what point does it go away? Is there anything I can do other than just drive more?

Had my new M3LR for about three months and have read all about people feeling like a dick while the car waits 10s to unlock the damn door, and I dismissed it.
Until now. Now it's happening to me all the time. Even today while Mr Muscle and his Mustang GT look over at me in amusement. My phone hasn't changed, it's in the same place it always is and has been when this didn't happen, Bluetooth is on and the app is running, just not always open - and still...
I'm a software developer and a handy DIY'r, I get software bugs and seized mechanics, but something that slowly gets worse over time that isn't mechanical? This beats the hell out of me.
Does anyone know why this happens?

Another feature that could make its way into GTA 6 is virtual reality support. With the increasing popularity of VR technology, it's not hard to imagine players being able to fully immerse themselves in the world of Grand Theft Auto. Imagine being able to walk around the city, interact with NPCs, and drive cars all from a first-person perspective. It would be an incredible experience for fans of the series.

She became friends with the dude rather quickly, she works in the restaurant business. Within one month, they are good friends, within the next, they are besties. I found them fucking in her car today when i went to drop off dinner for her as a surprise because she was “working late” (mind you, he is 27 and engaged, she’s 19, and i’m 19) She didn’t see me, but i sure as hell saw them.
I work at a gunstore, so it’s not like it would be hard to just end it, i have access to anything i could want to do so along with a few here at home. i’ve had some homicidal thoughts, but i’m not going to act on them, i only want to end my own life.

I have bad anxiety. In high school I was always bullied. I always was the “dumb kid” and just kinda brushed a lot of it off. I never spoke up in class because I never had to, and even when the teacher called on me once in a blue moon I would just shrug or say I don’t know. Now I’m not necessarily a shy person outside of class or whatever and it’s not that I don’t know my shit, I just hate being called on in school still.
I get this overwhelming anxiety where everything in my head turns into mush of basically what I want to say or whatever and I get extremely overwhelmed when I’m asked a question in class even for the most basic shit. To the point it can be the most simple answer and I just don’t trust that my gut instinct is right, and That my answer isn’t the right answer so I fumble through my brain cards of fun buzzard words that I think are “more right” and turns out it’s wrong.
My teacher and classmates literally think I’m fucking with them about this and it really bugs me even after I explain I’m anxious and have “performance anxiety”. Like I feel like I physically just can’t say certain things when picked on in class but I’ll literally be able to say it under my breath or talk with my classmates about certain topics were learning, but when I feel there’s a spotlight on me I literally brain empty with monkey clanking symbols together. It’s like I know I just have low self esteem and I’m not confident but now I’m just extremely frustrated at people being frustrated at me for something I feel like I can’t control and I’m especially frustrated at myself for being this way.
We were in teams during class on Tuesday and I struggled to answer this (given) really easy question and ended up getting it wrong, then just said “I don’t know” in class. I always end up saying I don’t know because I just don’t know, my head tells me that the answer I’m thinking of is wrong and my mind draws a fucking blank. My classmates did laugh at me and it kind of upsetted me because I feel like i genuinely have this feeling of I don’t know in my head, the words get jumbled and I’m scared of mispronouncing things that are simple.
I got extremely flustered and given I know my classmates are sick of my shit but so am I, and I just kinda tried to get over it. Then my teacher asked another question given that was way harder that I did know the answer to, and when I told my classmates the answer they called me “goofy” and said that I didn’t make sense and laughed at me which frustrated me because I knew I was right. Then the teacher called on me, I shrugged to actually be an asshole, and the other team basically said verbatim of what I said and they got a point. I really didn’t help my case there but I didn’t care anymore and I just wanted to go home at that point.
I’m not really sure if it could be because I’m going through withdrawals of my antidepressants or just anxiety, or my life kinda being shit outside of class but ugh. I live in my car and I’m trying to continue my education and be okay with people but I also recently ran out of meds so maybe it’s that? I don’t know. I think I let school and home affect me too much and I’m shitty at compartmentalizing woo but maybe I’m just giving myself excuses and I’m a shitty person I don’t know anymore

Hi all, if this isn’t the right space for this, sorry! Just looking for some direction. I’m looking at getting a new car soon and am considering leasing as an option since the monthly payments are a bit lower. I’m not really in a place to afford a car payment of over $400 a month right now, so leasing seems like an enticing option. My question is, does it make sense from a long term stand point? Like, how does buying out a lease at the end of term work? Really, I guess I’m just trying to make sense of leasing a car, or should I just scrap this idea and figure out how to finance? Thanks for any help!
