I wondered how Claude would do on non-coding/math questions. I want to replace the front end of my truck, from ball joints to bumper, and Claude was hopeless. It didn’t even know bumper weights, what kind of suspension I have, and more. Gemini nailed everything, giving detailed and correct information on how to replace everything including the problematic (on my truck) driver’s side upper control arm. Replacement bumper weights and costs were correct. Even the welding advice was right.

I still find Claude better for learning math but I won’t use it for other everyday things again.
