Old mobile phone + app?
1 Like
Hmm, maybe, but i usually just sell my phones when i’m done with them.
Besides, any old phone propped on the dashboard will attract burglars.

Figured you might have had one and would save you a few $$$.
Ahh your looking at after leaving protection, yeah not a good deal

Yeah, i leave it parked alone for 7 or so hours each day, it would be nice to have some sort of assurance if something happens.
Now that I’m thinking about it, a model with a rear camera would be even better.

Summer heat can be quite an issue plus the size.
@Automobili3XF I use the Xiaomi 70mai with great success.

My mom’s Fiat 500 is almost 10 years old now, its feels pretty good.
But then again it doesn’t count because its the brazilian version with the proper engine.

See how i don’t shy away from questionable cars, since i’ve been in the forums i’ve had two Renault Meganes, a Fiat 500 and now i have a Peugeot 408.

Any decent 32+ gb will do.
If the card craps out the dashcam will let you know.

Did my 100k milestone maintenance on the regular cab 5 speed Tacoma.
Changed my transmission fluid, don’t think it was ever done the difference was night and day and it goes into gear 3x easier it’s insane. This is how much metal was in the cap
Also did the spark plugs, which had been done previously as they weren’t OEM. They were gapped to .4in one was at .5… they’re supposed to be .44. Felt a mild power difference but mostly the engine runs a lot quieter now.

My parents have a combustion Kona.
If I end up going for a new car within the next couple of years a Kona is probably within my top 3 right now. It’s a great car, and the combustion version I think is a very reasonable price.

Hopefully those plugs were the only things bubba’d by a previous owner.

Honestly, I even think the ev version is a reasonable price. Especially for an ev. Maybe I’m just used to stupidly overpriced evs though.
I’ve considered leasing one, especially with gas about to hit $6/gal out here.
