Like the opposite of water heaters for your house, because it can get so damn hot there. Is "cold" water actually even cold?

They'll both do what you need them to do, and you probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference, but I would recommend the S&W.

The Smith held up in a melt down test just as well as a $2000 premium model. Long video for reference, you don't have to watch it.

I think that sold me on buying the S&W.

Nah. It just feels lower-stakes because its smaller scale than most of the other joker's schemes, like the ferry and the hospital. Its still a tense scene though.

I don't understand, what am I supposed to be looking for?

Peak Pricing = they charge an extra $2-$5 for you to go watch the movie, on top of the $10/mo they charge for "unlimited movies a month".

The red lightening on the top right of the times signal peak pricing on clearly not peak times (Thursday at 10pm), on old movies.

Also I updated the OP with how much the fee actually was for me to check in; it was $3.50 extra. According to a reddit post, it seems like the fees are anywhere from $2.29 to $4.20/movie.

so basically youre paying 3 dollars for a movie ticket?

how is that bad?

if you see more than one movie you save money already

$10/mo + $3/movie? Screw that. I'd literally rather pay for the movie itself (seeing how tickets here are $5 for morning, or $10 for evening, with reservations, which you cannot do with MoviePass), or signup for AMC A-List.

The real important factor in your decision, however, is how much money you have for the next car. Is it going to be a substantially newer vehicle or another aging one that will require a degree of futureproofing work?

We are financially able to purchase a newer vehicle. Haven't decided if we should buy a brand new SUV or a certified used SUV yet, as we haven't really decided on if we should sell this car or just keep it.

Another risk is that after we do the maintenance items and fix a starter issue in the next year, what if another major thing breaks? Bleh...

Car:
2005 Hyundai Santa Fe with 110k miles on it. Main purpose = daily driver/beater car.

Condition:
I bought this car for $3,500 a couple years ago at 80k miles in mint exterior condition with fair mechanical condition. I spent around $2,000 in mechanical repairs bringing it back to good mechanical condition. In the past couple years, my wife hit a tree, so it has a huge freakin' dent and scratch all over the car (i.e. poor exterior condition).

Offer:
A dealer offered $1,200 for the car (KBB estimates ~$2,500 for private sale at "fair" condition), a major price hit because of the poor exterior condition (the estimate for "excellent" is at ~$2,000 and ~$4,500 respectively).

Dilemma:
The car is starting to have some ignition problems, but not consistent enough for the dealer to diagnose exactly what the problem is, thus no ballpark estimates on its fix. The car also soon needs major maintenance*, which may cost additional $1,500.

I don't think the car is worth spending ~$1,500+ to repair, only to sell it for ~$1,000 the year after. So we're both at a dilemma:
.....*Pay to repair/maintain the old car and hope it doesn't have more problems, or
.....*Sell it and just buy a newer car.

What does CE think?

*Major Maintenance Items Required Soon:
*Replace automatic transaxle fluid
*Replace engine coolant
*Replace spark plugs
*Replace timing belt (thus also replacing the water pump, tensioner, and pulleys)
