Fuck thank you! I thought the apostrophe thing was just my shitty phone.

84 Chevette. Mic drop.

I really do love it here. Hope you make it out soon!

I am lucky in that regard, rust isn’t much of an issue in NW Oregon.

Exactly. Most people simply don’t have the cash on hand to buy a Brand new car outright and never will.

If you were to actually read ALL of the information, you’d know the issue isn’ just speed, but DURATION. The g159 was designed for LOCAL DELIVERY VEHICLES, not sustained highway driving.

I like my camry, too. Same vintage as yours, ‘98 XLE V6. 108k original when I bought it from the original owner last March. I was finding 4 cylinder models with twice the mileage for the same price the guy wanted for mine, which was $2500. I Didn’t even argue with him about the price. The car checked out so I just…

One has to wonder why you didn’t release the brake FIRST and avoid all the problems that came with it? Seems you’d be a month ahead if you had.

COTD!

About the worst union out there is SEIU local 49 in Portland Oregon. We came to work one day (security) and were told that the union and our management had reached an agreement for us to be union and that we could join, or look for another job. When someone looked it up and the showed the rep (Semir Said) that that…

That actually makes a lot of sense. I didn’t think about the new heads being “incomplete” but it would probably be a bare casting.

$20 bucks for 10 miles? You really think that’s going to be worthwhile for anyone after making a truck payment, insurance, fuel, and then their time on top of that? There’s a reason shipping costs what what it does. It’s not enough to cover costs, people like to make something for themselves. Why would anyone give up…

Right? Like, there should be a place that you can go and rent a pickup truck for a period of a few hours to a few days, so that you can haul things. It could be called “You Haul” or something like that.

I’ve said It before and I will say it again. Why is this even allowed to be a thing? Drive your freaking cars people.

I get your points. But I never held that against her. Racing is expensive. You take sponsorship where you can find it.

Why the extra .9 hours if the cylinder head is replaced as opposed to just the gasket? The procedure is literally exactly the same, just uses a new head during reassembly. Time should actually be a bit less, as the new head shouldn’t require machining.

So many questions. Like how were they able to visit the Porsche factory, and Paris ect, and why did they about go back, only to try and escape later?

Haven’t used either Android auto or carplay yet, but if the differences between platforms carries over similar to the phones, I would feel comfortable assuming that the android system does everything the apple system does, but faster, more logically and intuitively, and with more user control.

Ah, I see. Good one. Used the same method to hide a cross country coach’s suburban in an equipment shed once. The police came! Good times.

Jesus christ. Or, “a certain unnamed alleged prophet.” Just say his friggin name. “Stephen King.” See? That didn’t hurt a bit, did it?
