  1. I’m ready for my trial to be over. One of the best things about an EV is regenerative braking/one pedal driving.  And yet FSD always uses the conventional brakes. It accelerates from a stop too fast and stops too harshly…with the brakes. The random lane changes on the highways, from the right lane to the left (fast) lane when no cars are around is annoying as fuck.  And then on the highway when approaching slower traffic, it doesn’t switch lanes but just slows down. It’s nothing more than a novelty/party trick at this point.  Amazing that people have paid $12k or $15k for this. It will probably get there some day, but it has a long way to go.

    I think we had talked about them before, but just wanted to chime in and say fuck Volvo. 2018 XC90 with 60K miles. Both front and rear evap cores are cracked. Bullshit by itself, but what is insane is the entire interior needs to be disassembled to replace them at a cost of $6,400. That's from an independent Volvo specialist too. I imagine the dealer is closer to $10K. That along with some other issues and the guy suggested I just dump the car and move on. Coming from a guy who loves Volvos that was surprising to hear.

    I guess I'll see what I can get for it and push my wife to get a Toyota this time.

    Have the exact same car with almost the exact same mileage that my wife drives. I will never buy another Volvo again. We had the AC go out, but luckily it was under warranty. The AC has always been loud as shit inside and there is a slight whistle sound when it’s on high.  Currently have a check engine light with the code being for some emissions bullshit. Thinking about getting rid of it before some major shit goes wrong like you’re dealing with. It’s just a matter of time. Kind of thinking about a Grand Highlander Hybrid. Im sick of paying $80 to fill up the Volvo with premium fuel. Fuck Volvo.

  3. I’ve been taking on and off for about a year.  I am 5’11 and was about 207 when I started. I pretty quickly lost 20 pounds and seemed to plateau there. I’m pretty happy staying at around 187.  20 pounds makes big difference. Most of my pants and shirts seem too big now. I even noticed it in my watches. Had to resize watch bracelets, etc. I’ve really like the way it knocks down hunger/cravings.  As far as side effects, just a few bouts with constipation and a couple of towel biting bowel movements that did not want to pass. Other than that, two thumbs up.

    Wow, what a terrible way to lose a game. Abreu error is what did it, can't blame the pitchers when idiots don't field a routine ground ball that leads to 2 runs. 

    In all fairness, that ball took a wicked hop.  But, fuck Abreu anyway.
