About a year ago I bent a well, of course those wheels were discontinued and haven't had any luck finding a matching used wheel. So decided to replace them with something different. Funny enough the wheels I bought were very similar to what I initially was going to do. These are Voxx Hellcat Trunk wheels. 20x9 with 20+ offset. Went with a slightly smaller tire that I had laying around 245/40/R20 that only had maybe 500 miles on them. I personally think it looks good lol

I have worked in the insurance industry for over a decade and give the same advice to everyone. Picking your deductible should never be based on price. 2 things to consider when trying to determine what is the right deductible is. 1) what can I afford to pay out of pocket. If your headlight or tail light broke today what can you afford without putting yourself at a financial risk or burden? That number is different for everyone. No everyone has $500 laying around and for some $5000 is a drop in a bucket. 2) at what point are you filing a claim? If you backed into something and broke a tail light and it cost $800 would you file a claim knowing it could cause your rates to increase? Small claims and hurt your rates just as much and large claims. You have to think long term, will this cost me more in the long run if I put in a claim? As far as carrying comprehensive and collision? I always recommend comprehensive, typically it's not very expensive even with a lower deductible, it's also what your broken windshield will fall under from getting hit by a rock on the freeway or a deer jumping out. There's no way to plan for mother nature. Collision is subjective to personal preference once a vehicle is a little older and depreciated in value. KBB is a good way of getting a estimated value. NEVER use the top value, unless your car is 100% factory condition, you'll never get that value. Use the medium to lower value as an estimate. Here is a common formula used to help some people. Based on that value of the vehicle, minus your deductible and minus the cost for collision for a year is that amount worth claiming? Sometimes it's better to save that money in your bank. It's a gamble but could pay off in the long run. Lastly while I am on my soap box... please don't ever say you have full coverage. There is actually no such thing as full coverage insurance. It's a expression used to imply you have comprehensive and collision coverage. Saying you have full coverage implies your covered in full for everything. Go hit a new Ferrari and see if your insurance will pay for everything... if you picked the cheap "full coverage" option you're going to learn an expensive lesson on how your not fully covered. It's no different then saying I'm selling a set of new car tires. There are many different sizes out there but all I am saying is a new set of tires is for sale. If you don't know what you just bought, your gonna learn after it's too late if they fit your needs.

Welcome back dodge journey forum

In my case it was a simple error that was easily corrected. I just took a longtime to inquire about it 🤣🤣 Recently when I tried to check on the forum I got a similar message, I just assumed maybe the server was down for maintenance or something. Otherwise Google is not what it use to be... 🤣🤣

Well at least you didn't get banned in error like me lol. Only took about a year for me to inquire about it 🤣🤣🤣

Car shut off and now won’t start.
Locosiete replied to Stacey's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
Yes AAA has helped me more than once and saved me a few $$ in the process. So after Charing battery and checking all fuses and ignition relays still not getting any feedback at the ignition switch. Disconnected the alarm and canbus bypass which has a T connection for the ignition switch. Once I did the switch started to respond. So can say the issue is related and must have a short somewhere in that harness. So lucky I am able to drive her again and only cost me some time. Maybe I will go through that harness so I can have remote star again. But for now it's not high on my priorities- 15 replies

I have a voltage meter that monitors the starting battery and also the auxiliary battery for the stereo. It's hard wired in with one connections under hood at battery and other at auxiliary battery- 15 replies

Locosiete replied to Stacey's topic in Electrical, Battery & Charging
I was driving down the road enjoying some music and a full body message, When all of a sudden I won the daily double and all the lights went crazy on dash and the the wipers turning on by themselves. I should have turned around and went home since I was about a mile away but to be safe parked at the gas station in rather than chance it dyingon the road or intersection. For about 30 minutes even though it's turned off it was in accessory mode and key was completely unresponsive. Volt meter was showing charging at 14.xx when I turned it off so don't think it's it's the alternator. Unfortunately/fortunately the computer timed out so no longer in accessory mode but now stuck with the windows partially down. Disconnected battery and it is reading 12.1 but going to throw charger on it in morning just incase. Hopefully i can read the codes tomorrow. Crossing my fingers it's nothing too crazy. But time will tell- 15 replies

What Did You do to your Journey Today
Locosiete replied to guls's topic in Accessories, Modifications
Sorry couldn't resist posting this lol. Mine has always had what I considered harder then normal shifts. When I first got it at certain speeds it would shift up and down with little to no change in speed or incline. Dealership said they installed an update and since then the shift points seem further and more aggressive. -
