Folding mirrors on lock

I believe it is in the IHU menus. I have to look. I would not disable that feature. Folded mirrors means car is locked. Unfolded mirrors will make interested parties to thing your car is left unlocked.
Sounds like your criminals are a lot smarter than ours.

Ours look for bags in your car. Ignore the 700 dollar radar detector but steal my gym bag again … this was when I dared to leave a bag in the car. Now I make the interior of the car look like a show model.

Only took 13 break ins to get me to no longer have bags in view :)
 
Very off topic, but we had thought about retiring to the northwest US for years, then the last 2 years with everything going on up there, from riots/protests, drought, fires, etc. and the rising cost of housing there we have sadly taken it off the list.
I love the northwest.
Been here 24+ years.
Droughts not effecting Seattle not sure about surrounding cities or towns.

Fires indirectly effects Seattle when ca and Canada abs Oregon and parts of wa burn … but who is immune to that

Riots protest. Lived near the riots/protest. Travelled through them daily to go take dog to a mini forest. Did not phase us. Was no where near as bad as the news made it out to be. Of course it depends what triggers your fears. Personally I am more scared of the small towns that armored up because “protesters might be bused there” vs down town Seattle during the worst of it.

Cost of housing in Seattle is horrible. Better out in the boonies but then you are out in the boonies. Not sure about island life prices.

When the spouses join me In retirement will probably move near the ocean north west.
 
Not if you have the right two :)

If things are correct more is better. If things are bad then any amount is aweful.

Btw this is why I always say spouse1 or spouse2. Been with 1 for 32 years and with 2 for 7 :) happy poly family.
 
It takes effort as does any relationship but it is healthy, functional, loving, supportive, honest and happy. Covid would of been awful without my family unit :)

Feel free to pm questions. :)
