Carvana bought my car for $4500 more than I paid new 3 years earlier. They then resold it for $130 more than they gave me.

Their business model is financing. Their site says 80% of buyers use them for financing. They are the buy here pay here of the online car sales and have high interest rates.

Carvana bought my 3 yr old car for $4500 more than I paid new. They then re-sold it a week later for $130 more than they paid me for it. I’m shocked their business model isn’t working. SHOCKED!

It was common back in the 80's when loan rates were crazy high. It would make the house cheaper for the new owner if they could take over your existing low interest rate loan, and then get a second loan for the difference (you would change the name on the loan).

People take over leases, so yes, you do let the buyer of…

interesting, what daily’s do you wear? I find the biofinity monthly’s to be more comfortable than my daily’s.

I setup a scale on my bird feeder. when something heavy jumped on it (a squirrel), it would trigger a leaf blower that was aimed at the bird feeder. Worked pretty well to scare them off, but they would still always come back.  After getting woken up at 7am a few times, I just took it all down. I need to find a  better…

Wonder how many of those people were just people trying to hack accounts and using a little social engineering on you.

I got a 1st gen sequoia for the same reasons. I was convinced after seeing a guy at the track with one and he liked it. You will have to put some helper airbags in the rear springs, but that’s easy and only about $100.

i’m actually shocked #’s are that good. Who was out buying a car? and of those people, who’s buying a new car right now? were dealerships even open?

there’s a reason all those old bmw’s are on aftermarket rims, the original’s are TRX sized. Few if any tires are available in that size anymore, and they all suck.

I guess this one didn’t have the cop suspension.

I want to be a casual iracing player, but damn iracing is the most expensive game I’ve ever seen. I’ve probably played it 10 times, but spent a hundred $ on it. want to race with some friends? oh, shit i don’t own that car or track. oops, i forgot to unsubscribe, there goes $13. If iRacing was priced like every other…

It’s interesting to me too, that the people that do it are monster dbags. I can barely watch vinwiki because of the fear that ed bolin would show up. Alex roy is even more annoying.

Not to mention they’d have to clean all the cars before renting them (or say they did), because someone might have sneezed on the steering wheel.

How much content is there to really take advantage of it? I’ve thought about upgrading my my yas-207, but I only watch streaming stuff. Does Netflix/Hulu/Disney/HBO/etc have Atmos audio streams?

I have this one on my desk. Keep in mind that this does not work on a 5V power supply. Requires a 9-12V input. It does come with the power brick though.

Fancy Kristen is what the world needs right now.

a lot of things do this. It’s to make the search engine optimzation work better. google sees the Url and thinks it’s important, but often it isn’t.

Also looks better when you send someone the link

The faster networking of the Pi4 isn’t worth it?

Can a Pi use the PD port on these newer power supplies? Seems like the Pi4 is already using close to/more than the max a normal power supply can provide at 5V. What happens if I plug in a USB hard drive and other accessories that draw power?

It’s also worth upgrading your mouse/keyboard. I used a Dell mouse that my work provided and I found myself stretching my hand every few hours because it hurt. I picked up a nice wireless mouse and it’s WAY better and way more productive with the programmable buttons. I’ve had coworkers balk at spending $75 on a…
