The guy in the video either doesn’t know how to ride or is lying about the wheelie. I’m going with doesn’t know how to ride since he admits entering the highway in first gear. In normal traffic there is no reason to ever do that. His explanation is the same as guys who “had to lay it down” because someone “pulled out…

I thought it was generally understood that all Goodyear tires are garbage and no informed shopper buys them unless they are installed on brand new car they happen to buy. I bought my Focus ST used with 7k miles and they had already been changed, my parents had a set on some car they bought new and they dry rotted…

Definitely read that as police station and not union office, a star to you.

Yep - will have one of these if I ever have more than 2 kids.

Price is insane, but there’s a lot to love about a 4dr van with a manual transmission. I would seriously consider this if it was 1/5 the price.

Of course they would, the police station is not private property.

I think i can believe this. I have an old three wheeler and it is designed to float, the tires are quite big for the size of the vehicle. I only tried it out once and it seemed to work although it was very slow, unsteady, and I was barely far enough out for it to not touch the bottom. A monster truck is way bigger but…

the goddamned temperature falling below 40 degrees

I was car shopping recently and found a GMC/Chrysler dealer offering lifetime warranties. I didn’t ask for details but assumed it has spotty coverage (they claimed it could be used “anywhere”) and high deductibles. I asked for a quote without the warranty and they knocked off a few hundred dollars. Didn’t end up…

VMT sounds tricky, beyond what you mentioned. There would have to be some sort of class system. A chevy spark shouldn’t pay near what dually F350 pays. What about motorcycles? My 125 Zuma creates little to no impact on the road. Sounds insanely complex to manage vs saying X cents per gallon used.

I find this article confusing. Are we talking about parking lights on the ignition or what I’ve always heard called running lights (from the pre-DRL days) on the headlight control switch? For example - my FoST has a few modes for headlights, one which turns on everything but the actual headlights. I’ve ran this in the…

I admittedly skimmed the article but had a similar thought, was was the end goal in investing in cryptocurrency? Seems like if they had money to use towards an event in the short term that some sort of CD or money market account would have been sufficient while guaranteeing there would be no short term drop, or in…

I stripped the oil drain plug bolt for my old Cruze. Not a huge deal, we were able to get it out without a ton of effort but it obviously needed replaced. Autozone told me they were special order, and that it would cost $275. At the same time my dad was walking around the store and found a generic replacement for $5.…

They added it after this article posted then, wasn’t there yesterday. 131k doesn’t seem bad for an 06 Subaru

Posted about this before but officers in my city were hiding on foot under highway overpasses, conveniently where traffic safely flowed above the speed limits with a mobile radar camera. Of course the news reported officers citing safety concerns but we all know the real truth. I’m sure the cities budgetary concerns…

While I see where you’re coming from, I’ve intentionally driven down boat ramps and onto lake ice and it looked nothing like a road. Maybe they were in a narrow channel?

No mileage listed? Instant CP. With an ad that detailed its clearly not listed because its astronomically high.

I was at chick-fil-a last summer and a kid called an S2000 a Porshhh.

Add to this people who ask you to cosign on loans. You might help out your kid if you trust them to not be an idiot but cosigning for friends or extended relatives will bite you in the ass 100% of the time.

2007 Chrysler Crossfire. I got stuck once in a couple inches of snow with snow tires, had to be pulled out. Even driving straight was difficult as it would either barely move with traction control on or want to slide out with it off. It was good fun in light snows with no traffic but fairly impossible to drive…
