I bought the one in the link below from Amazon about a year back, and it has been getting daily use without any issues. [100W GaN Charger -…

Fish and Grits on Nissan X-TRAIL ST 4X2 Petrol $38,990 Drive Away (Was $41,290) @ Nissan Dealers

I forgot to mention in my post that our one was replaced even though it was a year outside of warranty. We had a solid log book for…

yoba on Nissan X-TRAIL ST 4X2 Petrol $38,990 Drive Away (Was $41,290) @ Nissan Dealers

We have the T32 Xtrail and the CVT died at just 69k on the odometer, with light daily use. To their credit, Nissan replaced the CVT at…

This is the way. I also agitate the tyre cleaner with a brush and rinse it before applying the spray foam on the body panels.

WookieMonster on 15% off Luxury Escapes, Adore Beauty or FlystayGift eGift Cards @ Amazon AU

Many thanks for this. I did eventually see it at the very last step and pulled the trigger. Interestingly and for everyone's awareness, I…

Thanks for the deal. I couldn't get the discount to show up for Luxury Escapes as I went to the checkout. Terms and conditions say 'limited…

Don't know why you got negged. It's actually a very important question. In answer to your question, it normally depends on if it's a…

Thanks Scotty and team. Fantastic work as usual.

justtoreply on [QLD] Brisbane Toll-Free Travel Both Directions for The Go Between Bridge & Clem7 Tunnel

You're absolutely right that tolls are BS. What it actually highlights is that successive governments have not allowed the transport…

We have an older model front loader Bosch (mid range, purchased about 5 years ago) and we noticed how super quiet it was on day one. For…

SlavOz on How many accidents have been caused by random speed limit drops on the freeway?

Not sure what you mean by 'poor visibility', but state governments don't generally post motorway speeds higher than that the road geometry…

This is precisely the reason why Warren Buffet has been reserving his cash in the last year or so rather than invest it. The 1% probably…

I couldn't agree more. My Rancillio Sylvia and Rocky grinder are built like a tank! Been using them for over 10 years and Miss Sylvia is…

samehada on Qantas Return to Hong Kong from $499 Sydney / $503 Adelaide / $509 Melbourne / $509 Brisbane @ Flight Scout

Good example of 'whataboutism'. Nothing to see over here, look over there. It's just so much easier than a cogent argument or some cordial…

Is the 60 hour requirement purely for attending courses? Is that just a part of your total professional development requirements? By…

You're quite right, depends on where and what circumstances. There are minor differences in cost between the actual pole types (rigid, slip…

Ti-au on Australian Bargain Hunters Are Hurting The Economy The RBA Warns as The Price Wars Wage on

I don't give a stuff how it all started. The fact still remains that Abbott's mob promised us yearly surpluses 6 years ago. I don't…

Not only did they tout we were getting a surplus, the touted we were going to get it year on year, and that was many moons ago in 2013! For…

Another Silvia owner here. Ours is about 10 years old and still going strong. Never had it professionally serviced as nothing has gone…

Thank you for introducing me to that website. And before anyone cracks a joke, I obviously didn't mean youtube!

[@arescarti42](/comment/6187949/redir): It's a double whammy. It's true that the economy has changed since the 80's. But there was also…

[@Lv80](/comment/6184122/redir): Unfortunately we live in a society where the planners and engineers are controlled and silenced by the…

Agreed, but be mindful that their economic decline is not necessarily a result of investment in infrastructure. On the contrary, their…

Exactly. And to add to your comment, the roads that allow buses on them are limited anyway. Standard buses can't physically fit or…

[@pegaxs](/comment/6178361/redir): I don't know how road authorities decided to come up with their 2-3 sec rules of thumb. But you are…

ozkiwi75 commented on Help with New Zealand (North Island) Itinerary
Nice itinerary, given the no. of days you have. Off the top of my head, I just have a couple of suggestions: Just north of Huka Falls they…

[@fossilfuel](/comment/6167058/redir): Your suggestions were my first thoughts as well. I've regularly worked with various surveyors and…
