Does anyone remember about 10 years ago a series of threads called 'Dew trail CYOA"? It was about moonshine running that allowed anons on /o/ to roleplay a character in the 1940s or something. I think the story started with us driving a 1930s Ford we got for $10 that eventually became a flat 6 turbo Corvair, im forgetting alot of details but that thread was really super comfortable and im feeling nostalgic and want to reread it if it exists somewhere somehow

Racers shift by ear but when you're in a race start with 40 other cars within 3 car lengths of you, you need to work off of something else

>>27841617
My Geo Metro has a shift light that clicks on when you are supposed to shift for economy. It's funny because it is basically telling you to shift right as you hit the power band.

Fellow yurups, do you too have to get all kinds of extra alarm shit and a tracker installed to get 100K plus vehicles insured?
I'm finally in a position to get an expensive car but it'll come at the cost of being tracked wherever I go, because otherwise my car won't be insured for theft or joyriding

That's usually opt-in. But it doesnt matter, dont spend 100k euroes on a fucking car retard.

>>27841125
I'm not, but the MSRP is indicative for this shit, and not used price
>>
>>27841131
I'd say the same to an american. No car is worth 100k whether usd or eur, but at least in america you get to enjoy it more than in europe. Having an expensive as shit car here is a total waste.
>>
>>27841084
it's because they let in too many shitskins. The rate of car theft has gotten too high for insurance companies. When europe was still white you didn't even need to lock your car...

2 questions from a europoor. Is that just a textured paint and why is it better than the hard plastic covering the truckbed?
>>
>>27840810
Roll it on dont spray it, less mess and thicker heavier coat. Bonus points, take the bed off and do the frame and under the bed for salt protection.

>>27841007
Roll it, you wont clean the gun they give you, then wont have a way to finish the other half.

>>27841034
Heavy thick paint with grit mixed in. Plastic bedliners allow water to get trapped under them, thus causing beds to rot underneath the plastic.

Once its dry, get yourself a nice thick rubber mat so you can drop heavy shit in the back and not chip or dent your bed.
>>
>>27841044
This.
I will add one thing.
TAPE OFF THE REST OF THE BED.
Don't think "oh I'll just stop at this point..."
It will look like shit.
>don't forget to pull the tape before it cures.
>>
I was thinking of getting my running boards, which are currently peeled to shit, raptor lined. Is it durable and more importantly does it have good anti slip? It’s either this or getting them powder coated. Which will hold up better?
>>
Why stop at the bed? Just spray the whole truck!

I'm a heavy diesel rebuild mechanic and make decent money and can pick all my hours. It's a really good specialty that's easier to get into than people think. If you're smart and meticulous I'd recommend it. There's a lot of really nice positions that will hire auto techs (good ones) and pay you well to do easier stuff. I enjoy researching different careers there seems to be more choice than ever.

How does one get in to that , as an apprenticeship.

Look in to companies like Detroit diesel Allison, or stewart and stevenson.

The reliability thing has been figured out, it's not reliable. The question you should ask yourself is why bother driving a rental. Life's too short brother.

How much did it cost?

I wasn't going to rent. I was going to buy a used one for only 10k miles with a good deal.

So far I've been getting mixed responses, others say the engine is good and will lasts, others say it's unreliable.

How come 5,800 cars get hit by trains every year.

the average level of intelligence is at an all time low, were literally living in a time when your average joe is fine with onepercenters fucking up the entire world economy for decades to come using a fucking flu as an excuse. That these creafures kill themselves in the dumbest ways imaginable is natural selection at work.
>>
>>27841348
a couple of them bottom out. have you not seen videos of 12+ people trying to push a car off the tracks before it gets hit by a train? they get stuck. and no you fucking moron, this doesn’t happen exclusively to cars with less than 1 inch of ground clearance.
>>
>>27841391
also, some people seem to think it’s better to get struck by a train and potentially earn some huge payout than to scratch their car a bit by ramming through the flimsy barriers. i don’t know if the former actually happens but i’m guessing that’s what half the niggers getting struck on youtube think.
