Which phone is no bigger than my current Motorola moto e?

Need to replace this 5 year old phone that's gotten too slow and unresponsive. I hate the large size if newer phones that you can't put in your pants pocket and sit down. The moto e measures 6 1/4 x 3 inches that is even bigger than I like, but oh well. Any suggestions under $250? Leaning towards a 2025 moto g for $170. Don't really want to learn a new phone from another brand if possible.

Anybody try Intercostal Nerve Block for rib fractures?

Broke 5 ribs and clavicle 8 days ago. Was in the hospital from last Monday to yesterday. The latter repaired with a plate and screws 4 days ago. Occupational therapist saw me yesterday and helped me put on the shirt (pullover) I came in with and showed me how to take it of at home. Well that didn't go as expected. Took me 10 minutes and probably undid a week of healing as it hurts more than it ever did in the hospital. I take 1000mg Tylenol every 5-6 hours and 5mg oxy every 4 but not very effective and makes me nauseous even with some med for that. Reading up on Intercostal Nerve Block and seems to be taylor made for this. Anybody tried it?

How to check which wheel bearing is bad?

Getting a wheel bearing hum above 50 mph. Best I can tell it's from the right side. Need to narrow it down to the front or back. Jacked up the front and tried to move the wheel and it felt tight. Will try the rear tomorrow. Would putting the car on jackstands and running it at 50 mph present the noise, or does the bearing have to have the weight of the car on it for the noise to show?

Are the EV chargers at the big Giant on the Pike broken?

I tried them two weeks ago but the car didn't respond like it used to and it didn't charge. I don't have an EV currently, but the last few times I went to shop there, the charging spaces were empty. That never happened before.

2016 Subaru Outback 2.5 When welding exhaust you disconnect the battery?

I always read to do that so you don't fry a module, but some people have said they don't bother. Can I use a memory saver in the OBD2 port so I don't delete the emissions readiness monitors when disconnecting the battery?

Any tips on smoke testing the exhaust?

2016 Subaru Outback sounds like it has a modified exhaust that a built WRX might have, but it's bone stock. I looked underneath and could not see or feel any leaks, but the noise is definitely from under the front of the car. I want to set up my smoke machine into the tailpipe. Do I have to plug anything upstream?

Free transfer from Metro rail to MARC train?

I'm on the Metro website trip planner going from the Friendship Heights Metro to Seabrook MD. Says you transfer to a MARC train at Union Station and the full fare is $3.85. How is this possible? The MARC fare alone should be more than that? And how do you actually transfer? Don't the you need a MARC ticket?

2017 Chevy Bolt Smartkey. Is this key usable?

I bought two new aftermarket proxy keys. Only need one but got a better price on two. I'll use the extra one on a future car. This car has onboard programming so no tool required, but I checked the configuration of both to make sure they were compatible with my existing key, and they were, but the extra key says, Locked. The other key was unlocked and programmed fine. Does this mean this key won't program when I try to on another car?

Dead mouse smell in kitchen?

Been noticing a funky aroma from the kitchen. Kind of bread dough with a hint of cheese smell. I have removed a few live mice a few months ago so I know they are there. If I can't find them, is these something to cover the smell? And how long does the smell last?

Ignore the belt squeal. Its a 2015 and I got under the car and couldn't see or hear where exactly the noise is coming from. Is there a common spot for exhaust leaks on these engines?

In which of these states would you title a rebuild?

I’m in Maryland (w/dealer license) and bought a car with a NY salvage certificate. MD doesn’t accept them. So I either have to get it inspected and titled in NY or another state that does. Looks like West Virginia accepts them. I could flip the NY salvage to a WV salvage, then fix the car and get a MD rebuilt title or just get a WV rebuilt title.

In WV it looks like $22 salvage title fee, $35 salvage inspection, $19 safety inspection, $15 rebuilt title fee. 6% sales tax on $2650 or are out of state dealers tax exempt?

In MD I’d pay $22 to get the WV salvage title, $75 salvage inspection, $200 rebuilt title fee and no sales tax.

So under $100 in WV if out of state dealers are tax exempt, $250 if not, or $300 in MD because of the ridiculous title fee. Any other options I’ve missed? NY would be even more since it's a 5 hour drive each way.
