It’s almost like they have multiple types of promotion to encourage people to spend and they don’t want them to overlap. Inconceivable!

Guerilla89 on Request a Free Xbox Controller Rechargable Battery Pack & USB-C Cable ($29 Value) for Missing AA Batteries @ Xbox Support
My solution to this is to use my 360 controllers and a Brook Wingman converter. The Xbox One and Series controllers are designed to fail.

Wow man, is your throat sore? What do you tell yourself when you see the Tesla sales numbers in Australia and Europe this year?
spicygastropod commented on [VIC] Polestar 2 EV MY2026 from $55,664, Polestar 4 Pre-Configured from $76,220 Drive-Away @ Polestar

CL123 on Jaecoo J5 BEV Compact Family SUV $36,990 Drivaway (First 2000 Orders) @ Omoda Jaecoo
Yes. And a 75kg download is NOT sufficient for most Jayco campers or caravans, which was the question.

King Tightarse on Jaecoo J5 BEV Compact Family SUV $36,990 Drivaway (First 2000 Orders) @ Omoda Jaecoo
No it cannot. The maximum towball downward load capacity of this car is 75kg. Not enough to tow a Jayco.
