I’ve heard of Sas throwing rocks but never rodents.

If you replace enough of it...

Yeah, I’m in the Bay Area. My car has basically 0 rust despite being 26 years old.

That’s true. I just got an NA (1991) with 199k miles for $950. Yes, it needed work, but it was a drivable $950 car with 1 owner and a clean title.

There are plenty of nice NA’s and good replacement parts for them. I don’t see them going very high. They made so... so many. I have no qualms about cutting mine up into an Exocet.

Or the Breen from Star Trek.

It looks like K9 from Doctor Who.

The car ran fine for double it’s warranty period. It doesn’t really matter whether it was a socket or 10 sockets, that’s out of warranty. lol.

You know, I think this is okay. All the purists want more manuals but you don’t want to make them easier. Why the hell not? This tech already exists for DCTs - you just need to add the lockouts on the various gears. That’s all.

#1 way to cheap out on anything: do it yourself.

Jeep scheduled an announcement about this but cancelled it at the last minute. When pressed for a comment, a spokesperson said “LOL JK”.

I worry about this. I’m now fully vested at my currently company (I was a very early employee) and I’m shooting for a decent pay day. I have enough trouble getting taken seriously by people inside our company with the typical “why should I listen to this 30 year old, I’ve been doing this since he was in grade school!”.

If I peed 5 cups into your swimming pool, would you care?

To be honest, I think you’ll be lucky to be at a quarter of MSRP in 10 years.

These aren’t going to be appreciable classics in any way. Kind of like an original GTI. If you want a fun car, buy it. If you want an investment, buy stock.

Actually, I think the joke here is much deeper than people on this site realize. It’s more of a joke about Chinese moms. The closest US equivalent is kind of the “helicopter mom” phenomenon.

I’m wondering if it’s there to protect some kind of intellectual property that could be figured out by listening to it.

I saw someone try this THIS MORNING.

I said asshat. As google defines it: “a stupid or contemptible person.”

Hey riders, not all of us cage drivers are big of asshats as this guy.
