Welcome to the digital age of cars. The hackers targeted this particular system, but it very well could have been any vehicle that uses a remote connection, which will be the norm. Is there such a thing as an impervious computer? Hackers can ruin your life financially with whatever you typed this on, are you up in…

Maybe having remote diagnostics is a bad idea which is the only reason I can think of to have these systems connected to the CAN, but isn’t that what everyone wants? If that’s the case this isn’t a preventable issue, you can only react to the security threats. They handled this the exact same way a company like…

Yeah debugging to be able to send errant signals from sensors takes dedicated enthusiasts months or years, and I doubt the hackers had that kind of knowledge, it wasn’t an issue yet. As far as safety goes, they maybe could grenade your engine Fucking with the fuel maps, I dunno fuck with the throttle tip in? It’s an…

You are completely delusional if you think your life up until now hasn’t effected someone’s life in irreversible and horrible ways with even the best of intentions and the greatest care paid to responsibility to others. If you’ve eaten a damn banana you’ve supported a regime that ripped the tits off nuns hung them…

Your right it’s carried a bit too far and has become pretty boring. The self loathing was amusing at first but now it’s just pathetic, and I didn’t catch on at first that I was talking to a teenager so at this point I just feel kinda bad about it. Have fun kid.

Say it loud and often so we all know you are the straightest straight guy there ever was. If you move out of your mom’s basement its going to be a whole lot easier to hide it.

I don’t give a fuck about being PC. It’s just easy to see through your bullshit chest thumping false bravado. It’s not a backbone keeping you up straight, it’s a dildo.

If you want to keep your repressed sexual urges under wraps you should probably stop running your mouth on the internet. Nobody cares about your personal problems jackass. This isn’t about being PC, it’s about the fact you are an asshole. If you are fine with that what the fuck are you doing joining a community you…

paying is really cool of you. The biggest pet peeve I have is when they want me to fix the one broken thing on a car or truck they haven’t maintained in 10 yrs. If you have a spark issue and you don’t want me replacing the wires and plugs and instead exhaustively testing everything to find what died I’m out. This also…

So you can at least admit the drama queen comment was spot on then right?

Getting high would make your shitfit even more amusing. Go watch some NASCAR knuckle dragger.

“Who did she sleep with to get this job” over a pic of a different car, on a blog. Bitching about journalistic integrity on short blurb with a link to a story, again, on a blog. Yeah you are most definitely a drama queen.

It is super easy, (pelican parts is awesome by the way, for parts and advice), and the valve covers are held on with a clip so It’s the easiest car I know of to do it on. But yeah I’m just saying it won’t go over well here. As far as engines go they are dead simple and troubleshooting and maintenance is generally fast…

Oh! An edgey drama queen.

Classy.

If you are worried about things like gas mileage or $4000 repairs and you buy this car, you are going to be broke one way or the other, might as well get a good ride out of your stupidity. It’ll all be part of the bankruptcy anyways, so clean slate it and no worries, you shouldn’t have credit anyways.

Judging by the comments here, everyone would shit themselves when they learn the valves need to be adjusted every time you change your oil, or 10,000 miles max. And because no one here on this car enthusiasts forum wants to turn wrenches thing like timing, dwell, and valve adjustments on a regular basis are crazy…

Is this a PSA site now? Drunk driving accidents, inattentive drivers, cell phones, etc.. Is this the type of reporting you need or enjoy? Watch your local news you’ll get some more tonight. This is pretty tastless bullshit. Look at these bodies, please judge below.. articles like this don’t Fucking help anymore than…

The guy above you might, I’m guessing it’ll involve cloud seeding.

I’d love to see the reaction at a dealership if you asked to have a new car inspected by an independent mechanic before you buy it. Would probably catch a lot of lemons though.
