Can concur. We have one and I think the whole block is ready to lynch him. He just HAS to go ripping out of the neighborhood with his “loud pipes” vibrating everyone’s walls. He used to randomly rev it in his driveway, but somebody went and yelled at him for that. That has thankfully ended at least.

No way. That crap is inundated into every fiber inside that car. It’s in the pad under the carpet, in the foam in the seats, in the ac vents, everywhere. If you are a non-smoker you will ALWAYS smell it.

I just remember as a kid hearing the joke that Waco stood for “We Ain’t Coming Out.”

If they don’t, you know what you must do.

In 1993 they had an E. coli outbreak that killed 4 kids and sickened 732 people across four states.

I’m sketching out a brake fluid reservoir to bring in to my local tattoo artist.

What do you mean?  It’s “nestalgic.”

My wife got pulled over for “tinting on the windshield.” The blue tint across the top that Nissan put on at the factory. She only got out of a ticket because the registration has my name on it and I share the same name as a local Highway Patrol officer. They thought it was the same one and let her go.

I bought a used Audi S5 out of state completely online and over the phone.  I didn’t want to gamble on it being sold out from under me before I could finalize the sale so I put down a non-refundable deposit.  However, the contract they sent me stipulated the car would only be removed from sale for a period of time. …

If this stays in California, I have a feeling it’s going to become “off road only” ie a drag racer at the local street legal drags.  This is within somewhat reasonable distance to Sonoma Raceway which holds street legal drags every Wednesday.

He doesn’t have dementia. That was a last ditch hail mary attempt by the Bernie Bros that the Trumpanzees latched onto. And if you really want to debate coherency, just try to read any transcript of the alphabet soup that Trump rambles out of his mouth after any question. If you can’t see that our current President is…

Nope, he bought his house in 1972 for $10,000 and doesn’t understand why these damn kids can’t manage their money better.

This isn’t a bad idea. Make it a rule that if they want to fly the confederate flag, it must also be accompanied by a white surrender flag.

Is teal coming back? Because if it is, I’m ok with that.

I’ve just recently got into this genre too. I started with watching a guy restore old Tonka trucks. Eventually discovered My Mechanics and have been watching his videos a lot lately. I like that he not only restores things, but actually makes them better than new by filing casting edges, realigning holes and…

I still couldn’t figure out how $13,000 was a “fraction” of the $16,000 he wanted.

Go for the SS.  I think they are actually going up in value now.

This is probably the correct answer.  Tires were bald/weathered/etc and they were like, “I’ll put some tires on it to sweeten the deal, but I’m not putting a lot of money into something I’m getting rid of anyway.”  And now they can advertise “New Tires!” and people who don’t know or care will swoon.

“... it doesn’t skim on quality.”

100% this. In fact I’m starting to think these articles actually are for them. Plus those “clueless buyer seeking advice” articles.
