saltypete commented on Gerni Pressure Washer - 5000 Vs 7300

I bought IB a decade ago and was really impressed. Bought some more 3 years ago and they’ve really gone downhill. For merino base layers…
This! Serengeti Maestrale’s. Lens quality is brilliant.
saltypete commented on Xpeng G6, Yea or Nay

Secondhand cellular iPad mini or Samsung equivalent.?

saltypete commented on Buying a Tesla Model Y - Any Suggestions?
No. No. If you live metro probably No. (Some owners seem to get nails and need assist) Either get the standard 19 inch wheels or do a…
saltypete commented on Recommendation for an Induction Cooktop?
We swapped out a gas cooktop and a Smeg was the only one we could find to fit the cutout. It’s pretty good so far. If I could have fitted…
saltypete commented on Should I Replace Both Tyres or Just One?
What’s your spare like? If it’s old or worn you can replace the 2 front and put the other one as an updated spare. Either way with 50k…
It all sounds like a lot of bollards!

You’re very optimistic, or have a relationship of dubious morality with your mechanic. Assuming the OzB Camry, and dealer prices you…
In 5 years there may be some pretty good options - better than the limited range atm. I’d love to be able to buy something with long…
The stuff I’ve seen is data rather than spin showing it sits at about 12% over 320,000 km…

Some people. Some people quoted $40k for a re-engine. Have you started using a horse? The good thing about EVs is that they record lots of…
You are correct by definition. Until we have 15 years of stats we can’t ‘know’. (My battery has an 8 year degradation warranty, so I…
EV batteries are looking like lasting a long time, (Apart from early, non cooled Leafs etc). They are comparable with the life of a Petrol…
In terms of EV, I think that is pretty reasonable. Never change a vehicle unless you need to. And long distance towing etc is not an EV…
