After driving some of the pre-owned prior generation, they just seemed too 'heavy'.
This one seems much more nimble, plus has RWD feel.
This was the most expensive XLT around, but it had all the features I was looking for on that model.
Next model up, Limited has some other feature I would have liked, but is way more expensive.
Since we pay property tax, a loaded XLT is a lot cheaper tax wise that a Limited or higher.
A base XLT is about 39k, Limited is just over 50k.

10 speed is great, it isn't sequential, goes into whatever gear it thinks it needs.
My previous F-150 had it, too.
My sister finally got her Mercedes back last week. The total repair bill was north of $22,000. The car was completely drivable away from the scene of the accident.
My best friend who just a few short months ago bought a used Raptor to daily drive also has a 2015 Wrangler Rubicon Hard Rock 6MT & a 2020 Grand Cherokee Summit just bought (with his friend/business partner) a 2005 Wrangler Unlimited (LJ) with 60K miles and a 6 Speed for $12K.

Good for the boy. . .and his parents. Maybe there's hope after all.
Also finally got on the horn with Genie company to get directions to sync the newer garage door opener I got. Was super simple and once I gave the operator the model number, she walked me through it in under four minutes. Want to give my old opener to our kid who lives in Miami so she can come & go when she visits. Also easier than taking one of ours when we use her vehicle to do anything. Our belt driven unit is still working great and is almost whisper quiet. Now, need to get the outside keypad fixed as it quit working at all. Always something when owning a house it seems!

I’m glad your sister is ok. What were the circumstances of the accident?
So your friend likes Jeeps or goes off-roading a lot?

@Sandman5472,
Can you just try flipping the breaker instead of unplugging the opener?

Indeed. The guy they bought it from was a landscaper. He worked for these people who owned farmland in Upstate New York. The owners bought it to use at their vacation home, and rarely ever drove it off their property. They put it in the back of a barn and it sat for years. He asked them if he could buy it for his son as a 1st car. He bought it. The son drove it, but never liked driving stick. The kid went to college in a place where you don’t need a car, then graduated and lived/worked in the city. The Jeep sat for a long time, being driven occasionally. The kid is in his mid 20s now and has moved out of the city. He needs a car and really doesn’t like driving stick. So his Dad put the Jeep up for sale and said he give the kid the money.
My friend’s business partner literally saw this out of the corner of his eye on the front lawn. Starts right up. Runs & Drives.

ended up with her deciding she wanted a bigger screen, so got a 15.6. And she thought the touchscreen was cool, so on the list.
and just like with cars, scope creep crept in. Turned into a Lenovo with extra capacity (12 gig RAM and 256 SSD) and a bit of an upgraded processor. Total overkill for her, but she liked the way it looked, and if she doesn't want it, I'll be happy to take it since it's a lot nicer than the old one I use!

would not be a bad idea. It is a nice car.

You will have a tough time finding a place to keep your car, never mind driving it.
I believe the apartment (and intended one to move to) is more downtown, not out in a fringe neighborhood, so having a car is going to be a non starter. and really makes little sense to keep owning it and keeping it here, or finding someplace outside the city (we have some friends out in the burbs) to park it for extended periods. Will just be an urbanite, and mostly public transit or Uber, and on the occasion she needs to get someplace that requires driving, zipcar is available.
all speculation at this point. She was talking to her friend up there today cooking all this up, but will have to deal with the pesky job situation somehow. But at least she is excited about it!
and if she does go, that takes our last tie to the area out of play, so the likelihood of us moving somewhere between Saratoga and New Hampshire goes way up. Mom can't be that far from her baby!

Well, not new to me, exactly.
When we started up the cooking studio, we bought a new Dell laptop to run all the software. My daughter picked it out, and she went pretty much top of the line. 17” screen, lots of RAM, etc.
When we had to shut down in November, it got left at the studio and wasn’t booted up for over a month. When we did, windows asked for the encryption passcode, which nobody had. So, for $300, I had a 256GB SSD installed, and I took it. The girls bought a new MacBook, since they are more familiar with that OS.
Everybody is happy.
And, since most of the work is done in the cloud, there wasn’t much data that was lost.

The laptop I use to remote in to the office and to sync my phone, store photos and documents, etc., is an i3 which is over four years old. It was mediocre to below-average when I bought it (but was the cheapest thing available with a backlit keyboard, which was a requirement). I replaced the HD with an SSD, and it instantly became a very good machine (and still is!).

My son said that one of his Western Digital hard disk drives indicates that it has over ten years of run time on it (the drive itself is over fifteen years old). SSDs simply will not last like that as a computer's primary boot drive (unless you never turn it on!).
You can get SSDs with longer read/write cycle life; you just have to pay more for them (a lot more, for archival quality units).
I did recently purchase a new iPad Air with the cool "magic" keyboard. I had a couple old iPad Minis and an iPhone X laying around and received trade value on those to just about cover the new iPad.
I love the new iPad and it replaces 99% of the functionality of the Macbook anyway. In fact, just about the only time I pull out the laptop is to use Quicken, which still relies on the software for full functionality.
