Thoughts on this sign?

Posted by Donner Ski Ranch (CA) on Facebook recently. The general consensus there is wtf but curious what Reddit thinks. They also doubled down and made a 2nd post offering free tickets to anyone who got a photo of the lifties on phones for the upcoming season.

I’m a lifty sup so personally it’s gross af!!

Edit to share my own opinion because I’m not gonna reply to any more comments: I don’t think that any lift op should be on their phone when there’s guests on line that they need to watch. Period end of story. Anyone who is sucks and deserves to be reprimanded. Our job is easy 90% of the time and there’s 10% when you need to pay attention needs to be taken seriously. But this kinda sign that encourages customers to RAT on workers is weird and gross. It creates an uncomfortable mistrustful relationship between customers and ops when in reality there should only be stoke between those 2 entities. Everyone calling me a crap sup for saying that I don’t like it needs to chill out. My resort would never put this kind of sign up because a) we deal with issues like this internally and b) because we have faith in our operators to do a good job and our customers to report issues without this kinda weird toned incentive. Not exactly mellow of you all to be hating on each other either but hey what did I expect it’s Reddit :P

How reliably repairable, if at all might this windshield crack/chip be?

Thanks in advance for any insight provided! I’m looking at a used 2023 Grand Cherokee and noticed a roughly dime-sized rock chip in driver side lower half of driver side windshield, with a crack or two that extends out from it to maybe quarter-sized. Looks to be about 5 or so inches from the edge of the windshield (sorry for pics not better showing that distance), and mainly within the frit area.

Just hoping to get a sense of whether something like this can be reliably repaired, or how likely a replacement windshield might be needed instead.

For what it’s worth, the car will be based in a desert region with max temps of 110-120°, and taken on frequent high altitude trips in the winter with temps at times down into single digits. So pretty temp swings throughout the year, and at times a single day will ne a thing.

What kind of touch up is this?

Just curious, in that it looks like maybe just normal touch-up paint being applied, but then there’s also what looks like some kind of tape on it that was used as well, which I’ve never seen before for something like this.

It’s on a used 2023 Grand Cherokee I’m looking at that’s being sold at a Jeep dealership. Not the end of the world as far as the damage itself, as far as I can tell, but just wondering how well something like this might hold up over time, or if it’d be better in the long-run to have it fixed properly, so long as the cost isn’t too crazy.

Thanks a bunch in advance for any insight.

I'm not sure what the outcome was, but it doesn't look great. I would like to have more information on this clip.

Hi yall.. I’m considering a purchase of a used car (22 grand Cherokee with 36k miles being sold as Jeep CPO at a large CDJR dealer). It appears to have a small impact point along the top edge of the front bumper. The area circled in the photos is about 3-4 inches wide. Basically two divot/impact points, and cracked paint (presumably from the bumper flexing) just behind that.

So long as there’s likely no structural and/or long-term issues that something like this might likely indicate, I more or less can live with it, esp if I can have it be something that helps negotiate for a bit better price.

Just trying to do my due diligence before committing to a purchase, and any insight would would really appreciated!! Thanks in advance.
