Ya the even sadder part - I drive at least 5 over on back roads, so if it’s 45 I’m doing 50 etc.... I drove that road every day 2x a day for 4 years before having the prius in 2 different SUV’s and a Legacy GT. The same speed. Cut to me driving the prius and the amount of people that would get on my ass, flash their…
Meh not entirely true. Car guy here, built my share of turbo cars, engine swaps, crazy 6spd swaps you name it. Even helped my uncle build hot rods back in the day. But I owned a prius for 2 years while I worked somewhere with a 35 mile commute 1 way. The gas savings were epic. The drive was all back roads (no…
You’ve been able to voice activate Android for a while it’s under your Google now settings.
Is it just me or are they wearing backpacks backwards in that picture, and it’s obvious they printed and cut out the nuke signs, and further more used yellow electrical tape to un-uniformly line the backups... Ya... Not shakin’ over here yet...
Back in the early 2000's I was heavy into the SR20 scene, bought a lot of cars with blown motors, needing body work etc, fixed them and resold them while also doing Turbo engine swaps etc. I was known as “Dr. SE-R” at the time... (owning 25+ SR20 cars in 2 years does that)...
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....
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....
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…
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…
Crack Pipe - Driver’s side is two different shades of blue, some kind of major repaint/accident in it’s past....
