Its a 2011 I bought used from a dealer. Ive had problems with all sorts of things but when I take it in (to a different buick dealer) they always say nothings wrong. For some reason they wont listen to the person who drives it everyday.
So why exactly would you jump onto the back of your friends dirt bike while he's running from the cops?
I can tell you're biased by your handle. I'm biased because I daily drive the car. I 'm sure the ecotec can be fine in the right car, and with a turbo, but Buick didn't match the transmission to the engine well and putting "eco" in front of something cant even get 20 mpg city is just sad. I wouldn't care if I got 14…
Nice, those seem like a decent car to use as a base. I just keep creeping around eBay and Craigslist looking for a diamond in the rough. Not much luck though, plus it doesnt help that i would need a working vehicle, since i know nothing about fixing cars.
Darn. I lived up in Wisconsin for highschool and whatnot, but I'm down in Texas for college. My plan is to start an on campus organization next year, but even that costs money.
What did you guys do for all of the safety equipment?
I usually cant be bothered by Subaru's and this is awkward, but does anyone have some clean pants I can borrow?
Good point. I'm trying to get some people together at my school, but as college students no one wants to/can put up enough money. It's definitely on the bucket list though.
God these cars are beautiful. I must continue my search for the sub $500 car. It's just getting harder and harder though. Everybody thinks their 1981 whatever is worth at least a grand just because it still (barely) runs.
Speaking as someone under 80 (by a considerable amount) the base Buick Regal is a train wreck of a car. The gearbox that goes with the "Ecotec" engine is horrendous and speaking of "Ecotec" I get 14 mpg city (and that's not all that far off from EPA estimates). That is bullshit from a modern 4 cylinder. While being…
[insert sex joke here]
Use your goddamn turn signals. Its the best and easiest way to communicate your intentions with others on the road. You cannot just shove a 3000lb chunk of metal into another lane without letting people know.
That is the right way to own a supercar.
That explains why I'm always stuck on them then.
The Super ATR used by American Eagle for "shorter" flights is absolutely abysmal. Its massively outdated, and the existing fleet is really starting to fall apart. At 5'6" have to duck getting on and most of the time you cant even bring a carry on aboard because 4 bins available are already full before anyone gets on.…
I want to go so bad, but I get done with school on May 10 and my lease expires right after. I dont think I can justify a hotel room for a full week.
I drive from Wisconsin to Texas and back about four times a year for school and its the best thing ever.
I kinda thought that was old news, but yeah. And even if there's no off button, you can always just yank the fuse.
