These were as cheap as $1,995 on eBay about 1.5 years ago as they got down to the last few they had. They were selling them out of CA

Depends, they have fake invoices and hold back money. But when I worked for a tier 1 supplier we got awesome discounts on infiniti/nissan so I bought a Infiniti. Part of the program required the dealer to give me a true copy of their invoice, we both sign it, and I faxed (hey this was 2001) it into the corporate…

Sometimes before going to actual court, the manufacturer can buy back a car and keep it from being called a lemon, it shows as manufacturer owned or “manfacturer purchased” on the carfax. This happened to my lemon lawed Altima. It was later sold as certified used. It had some many parts replaced and so much paint work…

True story... When I was 12ish we were moving my brother into his dorm hours away from home. He was trying to be all cool and calm, yet there dad and I were in our beater plymouth shit hole minivan. We pull up to a light with some “cool looking” college kids in a convertible to our right. Dad decides to clean the…

This. All of this.... I’d like a truck, but I don’t need to tow a yach full of coked out hookers. I just need to make some runs to home depot and get the kids to school. Every now and then I may need to take my oversized “subcompact tractor” in for service, but you know what, for the savings in cost, insurance and gas…

or as I say, multiply cost + time estimate times murphy....

Black friday I believe it was best buy had a basic remote starter on sale for $149 installed. Some cars (newer) are REALLY easy to install, the factory brain already has the ability to remote start, and you can buy a $40-60 box that hooks up with minimal wiring (sometimes there is even a plug an play harness for…

Sorry to burst ‘yer bubble, but they’ve had manual compatible remotestarts for a long time now. Had one one my Legacy GT and G20. Not only did I hook up the neutral safety switch on both cars (most 5spd cars have them so if u yank the car outta gear with cruise on it knows to not accelerate). But if your to lazy/don’t…

90 degree day in July. About to leave for the lake for a week. Have everyone packed and ready to go in the SUV when I notice a weird smell near the garage/my Prius. Pop the hood and bam. Biggest damn squirrel I’ve ever seen... I had heard something odd when I started the car the other day, I assume he baked as no…

What I meant was, say that a base Nissan Versa had side airbags, front airbags and knee bags standard. IE - if you are a normal customer buying the least trim possible gets you all these airbags.

I also recall a few years back rental car companies got in trouble because they were ordering cars WITHOUT standard safety.equipment like no side curtain air bags etc. Buyers then bought assuming it had the std features but did not

Not my story, but that of a tow truck driver giving me and my broken down car a ride, priceless though....

I thought the movie was great. My biggest issue with the movie is - god dammit kenny, blow something else up last second. How many death stars/death star like things are we gunna have? Even my 9 and 4 year old were like WTF - again? Next time make it some big clone factory, or how bout a Sith training temple getting…

Once had oil done at Toyota dealer on my wife’s venza (cartridge filter, what a F’n mess). Anyways... Get the “you need a new cabin air filter” call and an absurd price, they tell me it’s filthy, I say no thanks. Pick up the car, wife gets 10ft and the glove box falls onto the ground. I go take a look, oily hand…

Just returned from the 7pm show here in town with my 9 and 4 year old. EXCELLENT movie, the crowd was great. Probably one if not the fave of all of the series. Excellent job JJ!

Thats at least double, in many cases triple the range you’ll get out of the 2013+ Nissan Altima CVT....

Took my 2002 Infiniti G20, Automatic, and attempted a 6speed swap from a 2003 Spec-V. I completed the transition to manual with the pedal swaps/firewall cuts, custom made the two mounts I’d need, and bought the SPEC-V tranny, and a JDM Primera bellhousing for the bolt up, as well as custom JWT parts for…

My short answer. No. By the time you get out, more or less by the time the books are printed, what you are being taught, other than general theory is outdated. Several of the local universities here have discontinued offering it for that reason. When I did career day/other talks at local schools for the last company I…

Crack Pipe - Driver’s side is two different shades of blue, some kind of major repaint/accident in it’s past....

You know they’ll open the vault in 100 years, look at the Blu-Ray disc and go WTF is this? And someone will remind them of a time from way back when we used HDMI cables to connect things, and actually had to store information on media, not directly to our brains.... And of course, none of today’s technology will…
