Nice!

This white guy comes here to read this kinda shit specifically so I’m not the asshole in the room defending policies, programs and the like that have been proven to be racist. I may not enjoy finding out that I’ve benefited from racist policies, but I can learn how to help be an ally and support change that will help…

Heard the same “You need new ball joints” thing for an alignment once but I could NOT afford such work being done. Chatted with a dude at school who suggested I remove and replace them myself and then attempt the alignment with a tape measure, and if that doesn’t get you close, then get the alignment.

I agreed with the Sky announcers, had he waited just a couple of corners to give that place back, he would have had DRS on a straight and would have easily reclaimed the lead. I don’t think he would have had the tires to pull ahead by five seconds though.

Yeah, if it had a 5 speed stick I might want to give the owner a call... but an auto, no thanks.

Even better idea is to get a cheaper used mower and hot rod that thing... look at my profile pic. Turned an old K-mart riding mower into a rat rod mower, complete with suicide knob on the steering wheel, primer black paint, Moon and Edelbrock stickers, flame job on the hood (later replaced with pinstriping).

Yeah, pretty sure there would be a few easy clues, throwing papers into driveways, stuffing papers into the mailbox tubes, car that is LOADED with more newspapers, occupant of said vehicle has BLACK (not brown, BLACK) hands and reeks of newsprint.

HA! Oddly, I was walking into the local Walmart not too long ago and something caught my eye... not like “ooohhh, shiny thing!” more like “Did I just pass a fucking pay phone...”

I am NOT searching to see if there are strange randos out there who collect toilet seats... I’m just going to expect that there’s GOT to be at least 10 humans on this planet who probably do.

You may still want to put on a set of Class 4 insulated gloves and some flash rated FR gear before attempting that.  That many electrons getting freed all at once usually makes for a bright light and lots of heat.

Well, it’s the last race of the season... so if it’s anything like the last few, Hamilton should have clinched the Driver’s Championship by then so you’ll be all caught up.

Sure you can, but how are you going to call for a tow once that 31 year old car breaks down? 

No, the worst part is when you look for something online, look a little more, do some research and then actually PURCHASE the damn thing... and then you see more ads for it. My recent FLIR One camera purchase is about the most expensive FLIR camera I can afford to buy.... I definitely DON’T need the ads for the…

Guy I work with made one. Right around the time Doug DeMuro was realizing he had indeed taken Car Max for a ride by getting their extended warranty on his used Range Rover, a coworker of mine picked up a lightly used Range Rover. Dude had just gone through a divorce and had wanted one for a while. I ran into him at…

The rusty chains look to be the safety chain and they look to be attached to the hitch area. The newer looking chains look to be the ones added to hold the truck in place, so probably from the rescue team or removed from the flat bed hauling the farm equipment.

If that’s all they’re trying to do, then take the cars to Red Hook in Brooklyn, NY, the Meatpacking district in Manhattan or just cruise around anywhere in Rhode Island.

I really enjoyed the Vietnam boat special... then the Madagascar special more recently.  But the regular Grand Tour shows are definitely a bit off.

Someone posted a reply to me on this today, so I didn’t see this when it was originally posted. I got a used Golf that was full of dog hair. I used duct tape (LOTS OF DUCT TAPE, or if you have access, a clean room roller ‘mop’), then carpet cleaner with a hard bristle deck brush and a shop vac. Took a few times, but…

Many, many moons ago I was attempting to follow my father home. I didn’t know the way and he was notorious about making you ‘figure it out’ yourself. Away he went with me trying to keep up. My 15 year old brother riding shotgun in a POS Nissan Sentra.

They still have to taste better than caviar though right?
