Note: dont be fooled by their car air fresheners from chemicalguys. Their “leather” does not smell anything at all like leather. and their “new car smell” is also so far away from “new car” that you might as well give up. It smells like outgassing PVC and burning electronics.

Yes the pump is cooled by the gasoline. the gasoline running through it. as long as you are not sucking air you are just fine.

OEM is from the Car company. for example OEM parts from BMW.

The outside air temp in the BMW’s and Hondas are silicon chips that are temperature sensors typically a TMP36 or a LMT70.

You need to report unleashed dogs to the local police, it’s illegal and unless someone reports it, your neighbor will never change to actually leashing the dog.

I posted that last time this went around. Friends Fiero buy at an auction and the trunk was filled with sex toys and bad VHS porn.

and socializing puppies is the WORST. Unless you love parvo and other diseases, plus it reinforces bad behavior from day one, stopping the puppy lage learned behaviors is harder than anything else. Plus most people do not take their dogs to vets regularly and get their shots even though the law requires it, so do

70,000 mile warranty pirellis are not performance tires, in fact no tire that is sold as 70,000 mile tread wear warranty is a performance tire in any way. and yes they have really deep tread to give them also a high traction rating in snow.

And anyone that actually wants a real fast Civic will not buy it but instead buy a standard SI and spend $10K in go fast bits at a good speed shop and a get a real dyno tune done and then end up with a car that will decimate this Type R quite nicely.

The car at the stupid markup is not impressive at all. In fact at

Modern versions are actually not that hard, some new tire compounds have insanely long wear rates and they are also making some of the very high mile tires with extremely deep tread thickness. so you lose nearly 1.5" in tire diameter from new to need to replace.

Yep, also look at the guys driving the crapcans at the local track owning the ricer kiddies rolling on 19" low profiles. If you want performance you go for smaller rims.

Which is a very dumb way to drive. if you always brake late and hard you are trusting you will not have a failure that will become a massive problem if you drive that way instead of a controlled slower deceleration that gives you options if you have a brake failure. But the general public is barely able to drive a

Yep, when I lived in michigan, 17" on my jeep and screw the fashion drivers riding on anything bigger. when you nail a 6 inch deep pothole at 70mph you appreciate the sidewalls being close to 6 inches tall. Plus I had no problems at all in the winter with ice getting caked in the rims, while the guys riding on

Got any that disables the latest Kinja changes that make some of the sites worse?

And a full minute long Airhorn honk while I glare means... I’m gonna call the lightning from THOR upon you and watch your soul burn....

It does, right after you buy it.

It’s GM, the company has been ran by bungling idiots for decades. They dont want to sell cars people actually want, they want to sell ho hum crap that they can sell LOTS OF.

XLR-V had a waiting list with people STILL ON IT when it was killed. They did not like a car that was massively better than the Corvette.

Have a couple of those, Still want an Elio. for example today this morning was beautiful.... this afternoon is “GOD HATES FLORIDA” and it’s raining hard enough to wash away the shame. That is not fun to ride in.

Holy crap they have a 18% interest rate? That’s freaking credit card rates!
