Face it, you’re going as we go… that’s what happens when you lose control of the unruly children! Should’ve kept a tighter leash on us…

They’ve got one thing going for them - it’s easier to turn a smaller ship. When we start doing dumbass shit on a policy/institutional level it is really really hard to undo.

More stiff boner reviews for the CTEK 5.0 battery charger!
Threw my battery tender trickle charger on my lawn tractor overnight yesterday. Didn't do shit. Pulled the CTEK off the M550 garage winter queen (first drive since Dec today) on in motorcycle mode this morning and let it rip until 6pm. Was only at 3 lights into charging, but she started right up! These fucking chargers are amazeballz!

You guys are not going to believe this shit.
This morning I get an email saying there is a recall for my 2024 KIA Telluride. Called KIA customer care and they tell me its "engine related" and recalls are being sent out with repairs starting April 15. Curious, I call the dealer and speak with service. He looks up the recall and tells me that the entire fucking engine and several other components need to be replaced. Evidently this affects every Telluride built in Sept - Nov 2023. The root cause is faulty manufacturing parts from suppliers. After hearing that, I call Kia Customer Care, call them on their bulllshit and say I want a New Telluride versus having all that work done on a brand new 4 month old vehicle with 700 miles. I even through in Lawyer. She immediately transferred me to "expedited care" and I was given a case # and will be assigned a customer care rep in 5 days. I'm sure you all agree having that amount of work done on a brand new vehicle is ridiculous. I'm going to fight this as much as i can. Maybe even lawyer up. It gets even worse. The dealer cannot even start ordering parts until the Telluride is physically on their property and they will not give me a loaner since it will likely take weeks or even months to get everything in. Kia customer care told me I can pay for a rental and submit a "request" to have that repaid. Nope. I will get it in writing. This should be in the news soon. I've never heard of something so ridiculous. Going to start drinking early today! Grrrrrrrrrrrr.......................

Try this one.
The expedited customer care rep actually read the recall to me. It mentions catastrophic engine damage that could potentially risk bodily harm and accidents. So I ask her, "Am I supposed to not drive this thing". Her reply: " It does not mention anything like that in the recall. " LOL

I'm so pissed.
They got bad parts during assembly and now are wanting to change not just the engine, but several other parts too. I may lawyer up if they dont give me a brand new telluride. They're sending out the official recall notices on April 5th. I'm sure that's when the news will pick up on this bullshit. The first recall notices were sent to some people a few weeks ago. I got my email today. I'm blasting this bullshit out on telluride forum if you want to check it out. The recall bulletin is bullshit. It only mentions "valve springs". It does not mention the other parts needing changed or that the entire engine will be replaced. I've never seen anything like it.
