I am with Cox, I guess Spectrum now, and I got them to lock me in for 3 years for 1gb (gigablast) for a flat rate of $60 last year.

I got a quote for about $1,500 to fill about 6" in my attic last summer. I think I got the quote for Koala

I think cam phases only affected Gen 2 models.

Databases did not exist back then. There was no way for them to definitively know how many hunting licenses there were in our country.

People are just so gullible.

If you do not have a third party extended warranty or outside of the factory drivetrain warranty, then yes you are on the hook for it. Remember that some dealerships offer an extended drivetrain warranty to 100k miles or lifetime as a benefit from purchasing from them. I think Matt Bowers sometimes will throw something like that in, even with used vehicles.

At the dealership, expect $3k-$5k total cost and a few days of it being in the shop.

Edit - lifetime powertrain protection for this 2021 Raptor. Seems like a pretty decent offer lol

If you already got 3 holes and you for sure want to mount it, just keep going until you do hit a stud lol

I went about 3 years ago and sat at the bar. I watched the guy cooking raw beef patties put about 20 patties on the grill with gloves on. Then with the same gloves on, he grabbed a handful of cooked french fries, put them in a boat, then on a tray, and I watched the server deliver them to an elderly couple.

If insurance already knows about it, go ahead and file the claim.

Also will diminish the trade in value of whatever they are driving when they go to trade in due to a reported wreck on carfax.

Chief of BR Police linked Flock to multiple solved crimes over the past 2 years including finding a 1 year old kidnapped victim and over $2,000,000 in recovered stolen vehicles.

re: Anyone ever buy a HELIX mattress…. I’m looking for a cooling mattress.

Posted by Roy Curado on 8/11/26 at 7:54 pm to tigers1956

I think the best cooling mattresses are going to be tempur pedics with their active cooling tech.

I was debating on getting the Helix Midnight Elite but decided against it. Saw good things about it online though.

TravelPro Platinum Elite has a lifetime warranty and I know people that has had them for 30 years. Mine is about 2 years old and looks brand new still.

Flock systems are heavily logged and audited. Why do you think they catch the ones misusing it in the first place?

I do think more protections and accountability can be placed in this space, but its not like all police officers just have free access to Flock data. A very small portion of investigative analyst and investigators have access to Flock data. Not all LEOs.
