Here's the list. https://www.tinting-laws.com/

I'm sure manufacturers just pick the most restrictive laws (looks like PA, NY, CA and other states) and make all windows like that else would need 51 different window packages at the factory and then they couldn't move supply around from state to state, and then people couldn't register their car in different states without replacing the windows.

NY and CA have the same window tint law as PA. My guess is that most of not all states have the same law. Auto companies are not gonna make different windows for different states. Seems like the law for most or all states is 70 percent so if a state allows darker tint then that can be added on later by the owner.

The PA 529 still isn't great. I use Ohio. NYS is good. So is Iowa. Anything basically run by vanguard has much cheaper fees.
. The good thing is that the PA income tax credit for 529 contributions can be used for any state 529.

The PA 529 fees were even worse 10 years ago. But they're still not the most competitive.

I don't think this is true else there would be an exception in the law. The pdf is very clear that 70 percent is the law.

I also don't know any car that is produced with illegal window tint.

Agreed Insulation is probably the single best investment you can make in a house. Will certainly extend the life of your HVAC and make it much more efficient compared to pre insulation.

Wondering if the fault point for the newer equipment are the electronics?

yeah, gotta balance everything else that needs to be done.

I do love our new system. So much more efficient, very quiet. no muss, no fuss, but if there are other things more pressing, gotta do those.

I do bet you could get a few more years out of the current setup though.

If you do keep it for a few more years may be worth having a HVAC company come out to clean it out/check it every fall. That service isn't too much $.

may be worth finding a reputable company to proactively replace it anyway. You probably will recoup the replacement cost given the much better efficiency and not have to worry about it crapping out again in the winter.

I do this at certain intersections. Depends on the amount of traffic etc and how narrow it coming up. And if I'm turning or not. If I don't do this, then when I get behind a line of cars at a light I get right in the middle of the lane and then move back to the right after the intersection so I'm not taken out by turning cars or people cutting me off at the other end of the intersection.
