Moral of the story:

Don't use food ordering apps.

That, and: The gobbles were telling you to stay away from Taco Bell. Because: shiat your pants.
See, I love the food apps. Because I don't have to tell a person what I want and have them ufck up entering it into the computer. Especially if I'm just going through the drive thru.

And I usually don't have any issues.

Instead, they don't read the modifications and deliver it wrong AND cold.

Don’t smack talk Taco Bell
We have the worst Taco Hell in the country.

Ordered 2 chalupas and 3 tacos for supper. Pulled I to the drive through

TB: I'm sorry, we didn't thaw anything to make the chalupas today. You'll have to cancel your order.

Me: ok *proceed to cancel order and place new order*

TB: sir, you can't sit in the drive through while you redo your order

Me: *looks at empty parking lot and drive through lane* sure, no problem! *cancels order and picks up Burger King instead*


And this was one of my better experiences with them.

For several weeks, the BK app wouldn't let me order anything but hot coffee with a burger combo at 6pm.

Subway app usually tells me they're out of lettuce.

KFC app has NEVER worked for me.

Wendy's app usually works but then the shiatty staff shorts us food or even gives us someone else's food.

And for the prices, I honestly just order from a local joint usually.

Yeah. Delivery. I usually only use the specific apps for restaurants and go pick it up. In the case that it's wrong I can complain about right there.
This is the way.

I will NEVER uber eats some food. I dont trust people that much.

I am so so so over this Butterfly. This should likely be in the let it out thread, but i don't wanna. This thing has fought me at every step of the way. It still misfires, flashes the check engine light and bucks/shudders. Motor is new/rebuilt, new injectors, new idle air control valve, new distributor (which i guess could be the issue) new plugs, newer wires (haven't actually replaced those) and a slew of other stuff, including the actual knock sensor.

it. wont. ufcking. run. right.

I finally broke down and took it to the shop the county uses to maintain the vehicles, because i get a deep discount.

THEY CANT FIGURE IT OUT EITHER

never have i had an Xterra fight me like this. Previously, i would have told you that I'm pretty handy working on them.

This one, lucky number seven, hates me. I liked it when i first got it. Had grand plans. Now, I just want it to go away so i can work on the orange one.

I get it. But, what's the alternative?
For me, none. I'll accept defeat. Shop called me just now like "man we don't know". So my bill will be minimal.

They are doing one last round of "tests", then giving it back. At that point, I'll likely tuck my tail between my legs and limp off.

I'll sell it as is and start making the orange one a reliable daily.

big sigh

That's like the 3 digit Maxima I bought a few years ago. Did the same thing. Didn't want to deal with it. Cost me a grand by the time it was said and done. Should have bought an 80s Maxima. It would have been reliable AF.

Exactly. I'll lose a little over a grand probably, but i can't keep spending good money chasing bad. Plus it needs some front end work that I would gladly tackle if it was running perfectly, but at this point, I'm about to start parting this bitch out. Haha

Win some, ya lose some I suppose.
