I'm a student and I'm leaving at the end of the week and need my car sold before then. I've had limited success with marketplace despite a very fair asking price. I've called Peak and Finish Line and they both seemed to think that the car was too old for them to buy from me (2001 Lexus RX300). I don't want to junk it either as the deals are terrible and the car still runs and drives perfectly fine. Does anyone know a place that will buy older cars? Hopefully I get a good bite on marketplace but I need a backup plan

I have always heard that top tier gasoline is better for engines and injectors, that it cleans out carbon deposits. Recently though, I saw a video where a mechanic said to never use this fuel (or the additives sold seperetely as fuel system cleaners) on direct injection engines because it "kills the injectors". He specifically mentioned to never use chevron because of the techtron they add to the fuel. Is this total BS, or does he have a point?

TL;DR: My long distance girlfriend says talking to me drains her energy.

Sorry in advance for the long read. We've been together for 2 and a half years, with the last few months being long distance. I'm moving back home in less than a week, so hopefully the problem just resolves itself. Immediately after starting long distance, I noticed she wasn't very responsive. We'd call a few times a week and text a few times a day and I was generally fine with it. She has just a flip phone and an iPad and she would text on the flip and occasionally video call on the ipad. Soon though the frequency of texts decreased, and when I commented on it she said she just didn't like texting on the flip phone but that she would try harder. Then we'd enter a cycle where she would call me almost every day for a week, and then the next week I'd barely hear from her at all, call or text. When she visited me in February she said she was going to try to call me every day for the rest of our time long distance, which as soon as she left became apparent it wasn't gonna happen. We went back to the on and off cycle. Finally I brought it up a few weeks ago and she explained that actually, texting and calling me feels more like a chore or task that needs to be completed than something she actively wants to do, and that in her ideal world we wouldn't really talk at all most of the week and then catch up with a call at the end of the week. Obviously, it doesn't feel very good for the person that you love and seek out attention from to tell you that talking to you drains them, but she assured me that she still loves me a lot and that it's just the long distance (apparently, she has no object permanence, so it's hard for her to gain the same connection with me through a screen that she gains in person). After that conversation, I decided I would leave her alone more and just let her reach out first from then on. But she began calling me every day and texting me all the time, up until a few days ago. I've been pretty much ghosted since then. I called her yesterday just to make sure she was okay because I knew she's been sick this week, and I got pretty much 5 minutes of her time before she had to go. Haven't heard from her since, either. Now my brain is going back to her telling me that calling and texting me drains her, and it's hard not to be hurt by it. But I also can't blame her since it's not her fault. I'm moving back in one week so it's tempting to just ignore it and hope it never comes up again, but part of me wonders if this is actually the start of a bigger, more serious problem. I should mention that all the time we've spent in person (which was most of our relationship) has been great with little to no problems.

Rear seats don't go down because of the roll bar. My only idea is to DIY basically a passageway from the trunk through the back seats, meaning cut a big hole in the back seats that goes through to the trunk. Any other ideas that maybe are a bit less reckless?
