This is my experience at Tasca Seekonk as well. Seems absurd when you have an appointment.
They also rotated the tires on my van but didn’t check air pressure. Since it’s a cargo van, PSI is 52 in front and 80 in back. They had it swapped. Not good.

How much more? It’s dependent on the size of the loan and other credit factors right?

I have no problem with people doing that, outloud, or to themselves. No one else gives a damn, especially if we’re all dealing with this shit.

yes, they have a facebook page, Buttonwoods MX. I think they are closed for winter. Its a JDay/MX type of track that you pay a daily fee to use. RI is a lousy place for dirtbiking unfortunately.

Not legal, unfortunately, even though in the 70's maybe earlier a dirt bike rider cut a trail there.

Thank you, guess I'll tough it out with Flood.

Sheesh bud, some people just want to bitch and moan in an effort to release the stress of paying for this shit. It's perfectly natural and human to do so. If it's this much of an inconvenience for you, close the app for a while and take a breath of fresh air.

For sure, which is why I understand the 2 month wait for an appointment. It's not being able to even look at my car until 3+ days after the appointment that gets me (especially with no proactive communication about it).

Highly don't recommend Tasca. Even a simple oil change can take 3 hours!

This is really helpful! I compared with my sister and bro in law that live in MA and he asked these same questions. After looking at my bill he said "You know our paying 44 cents per KWH?" I said yes and that we turned downtown he thermostat and he's like "that's not going to help much when you can go with a different supplier and pay 17 cents per KWH" my mind. Blown. I didn't know there were so many supplier options. I just had a random person come to my house last summer and say "wanna sign up to be part of a solar grid community? It's cheaper than your current rate" (at the time it was like 5 cents cheaper) and I was like sure pffft why not?! I didn't know how easy it was to switch once the rates started to skyrocket would love to see my bill cut in half from 430$ this last month jeeze.

Knowing a lot of mechanics in the state, there is a lot of short staffed auto shops and they are all on crazy long waits.

My pmi is much more than that, but it’s not problematic at least for now. But annoying.
Though, the pmi won’t last forever which is great.

They were phenomenal. The cocktail tables were gorgeous and dinner was delicious. They are very easy to work with and were always checking in with my daughter and groom.

Being a new homeowner is hard. Being a new homeowner and landlord to two families sounds dreadful.

Reply to comment by bbpr120 in A 10-year-old doubted Santa’s visit — so she sent DNA evidence to police by Beezlegrunk
It's always tough to talk about complicated legacies. Yes, Santa Claus has brought joy to countless children all over the world for longer than any of us have been alive, but does that mean we should excuse his wanton bloodlust? The death squads? The snuff film collection? The elf genocide?
Hard to say.

My pmi is like $40/month and the increase in monthly interest from a larger loan (smaller down payment) is only like $30/month. No brainer for me to put less down

Reply to RI Driving Test by possiblecoin
So I took my driver's test in SC, and passed but did horribly with parallel parking. They still gave my license(this was years ago). I am 35 years old and still cannot parallel park well. I drive to Boston weekly and have to spend anywhere from 15-60$ for parking just for a few hours because I cannot parallel park. I have to research parking before going anywhere. I very much wish I had mastered parallel parking. It would make things much easier.

Oh yeah, I should have mentioned that too. Mine is under warranty as well, so I am kind of tied to a Ford dealer to fix these warranty (and recall) items.

Correct. I’m not sure if credit is affected in the amount but just the size of the loan and the % for pmi. I know I get around $125-$150 for pmi per month. Hopefully soon I can get it to go away
