Hyundai Elantra?

Somebody forgot about this gem: https://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/27/ebay-find-of-the-day-2003-pontiac-aztek-custom-show-car/

The taquitos were 3 for $3 now it’s 2 for $3. The advertisement says that but they show three items. Yeah, I’m that guy that eats trash off the rollers.

I just assumed they’re just gonna reskin Rivians, call them Scouts, and call it a day.

Mine is at 173K, she’s been very reliable but definitely looking her age.

Also, the dash is cracked and it looks like it’s bowing outwards. See the light sensor in the middle? It shouldn’t be like that. And the plastics are HORRID, if you’re not garaging these, that plastic will just break into a million pieces. However, the dash on my 06 Mustang is worse, I don’t get it.

Jesus Christ, when will the E-class platform myth stop? It used components like, brakes, suspension components, transmission, etc. but it did not use the platform. Parts do not make for a platform. It’s not a W211 in disguise. But hey, if I’m wrong, I’ll gladly admit it. I have both, a Magnum R/T and an E320 CDi. Both…

I really hope that Subaru didn’t have a “Coexist” sticker on that vehicle. In all seriousness, I’m glad he was caught and I hope the cyclists recuperate quickly.

Ah yes, the lovely Jim Crow laws. /s

I laugh at the fact farmers needed handouts (when they originally didn’t) because he started a trade war with China and they retaliated over our soy exports to them. Then the farmers needed handouts from Uncle Sam.

And over the neighbors dog?

I’m really hating the trend of not being able to operate my headlights with a switch. If I were looking at one of these, that would definitely be a deal-breaker. Let’s say the headlights worked with voice controls, what if you lost your voice? Or sometimes it’s a lot faster to press something than try to say a word in…

It’s like during COVID how airlines needed a lifeline because they had no liquidity. The cash they had on hand was used to buy back stock and pump up their stock prices, so no cash reserves. Imagine if we could get free money for being greedy.

Sounds like an interesting way to spend a few hours.

I mean, I’ve seen people remove parts of emissions controls (like EGR) to improve reliability (ie carbon buildup) but the Pep Boys special on the interior and that schnoz, eww. I mean, you’re in Florida too, so we don’t have to worry about inspections but I’d have to spend a pretty penny to make it look respectable…

I like these cars but around $5k for a decent example. Those miles are low and with that price premium, you’re going to have to replace a lot of wear items on that. ND

Input lag you say? Have you tried hooking it up to a CRT display? /s

Lol, that guy definitely did not do roids. Some antidepressants can do that though. I guess it comes down to body chemistry. There was a deodorant that I tried once and while it smelled good, it did not work well with my body chemistry. So the moment I started sweating, my god, it was embarrassing and awful. Never…

So I noticed the Brazilian S-10 is the same thing and it seems to have actual stalks and I’m guessing a switch. Maybe a Brazilian spec stalk can be swapped in because I’m assuming all the connectors are there. Kinda like when I added daytime running lights to my Dodge Magnum. I had automatic climate control but no…

I will say, that is a pet peeve of mine where people douse themselves in cologne/perfume before working out. Especially, when I’m on the treadmill and they get on the one next to me.
