And now it's time to give anon's car a Dougscore
The fuck is a Doug score?
>>28871164
>>28871164You'll get extra points for a delicious hood ornament.
I don't really care about his opinions. But I do like the part of his videos where he goes through the ins and outs of the vehicle.
Doug has never reviewed my car.
How much does it actually cost for custom artwork + the actual wrap?
>>28872113>erm, no I won't but I'll die on this hill anyway for erm... reasons!Nigga a beach is a completely different enviornment. No shit. BUT YOU AINT ON NO BEACH BITCHYOU IN THE STREETSWITH PORN ALL OVER YOUR RIDEfuckin delusional dweebs I swear to God some of you should've been beaten by a father figure
>>28872155>shoulders is pornooooh saay can you seeeeee
>>28872155What? I don't like either of those things I'm just saying it's not illegal.
>>28872157>Downplaying the original concept with just heckin shoulders!Retard moment, many such cases>>28872159Look up Indecent Exposure you stupid monkey. There's a reason porn mags (when they existed) was in a 18+ only isle. To keep it away from the public.
>>28872165It's not illegal to have a dressed cartoon girl on your car much as it isn't illegal to wear the legal minimum.There's a difference between a cartoon girl and a closeup of some woman's s pussy. In most places if you are covering your genitals (nipples for women) then you are not doing indecent exposure even by current laws.We have truck nuts, gun ads, videos on the news of people dying and you think titties are too much? Get outta here.And quite frankly, I don't think indecent exposure laws would stand up to the first amendment. Indecency laws violate the first amendment whether courts have ruled otherwise or not. It's a human body, but we let kids play murder simulators. Get fucked, womens bodies are awesome.
Seems like a pretty good value
>>28872116This.Also: Gasoline burns, but a mixture of gasoline and oxygen (air) does explode - even at ambient pressure.There are workshops that blew up because someone ignored a puddle of gasoline and then something like a dropped tool caused a spark.
>>28872133>you assume it's purely mechanicalthat's literally what it is. have you ever seen one before? the entire premise is that the contraption uses as many possible moving parts to achieve and end result in the least efficient way possible. you don't have to agree with me, it's not my job to change your mind. all i'm saying is you're using the expression wrong and it makes you look like a moron.
>>28869507Why would you get a new tesla when used are much cheaper?
>>28872145I have but they are not purely mechanical.The term only implies using complex machinery to perform a simple task.
>>28872152>complex machineryyou're so close to having an epiphany. those poor little brain cells are working as hard as they can but it's just not quite hard enough.
>sit on top of a high voltage battery inside a box swimming in EMFThis is the reason colon cancer is exploding.
>>28872083Oh well it should've said that. Only France is mostly-nuclear. They're the only one. Buuut, Africa is pushing back on France's use of slave towns for uranium mining in the last couple years.
>>28872084Sure anon, sure...
>>28872075lmao i never said electricity is generated in the states with oil. still ignoring my points and just rambling on about irrelevant bullshit.
>>28872102>my cars don't run on oil, they run on gasoline, which is taxed, not subsidizedI responded directly to this>EVs are predominantly powered by fossil fuels too and are actually less efficient at converting those fuels to energy, so oil companies really don't give a shit what you drive.If you can't connect what I said to this then you suffer from profound retardation
>>28872160you lack several layers of abstraction and are calling me retarded lol
>HOT TAKEthe F series looks worst. the headlights connecting to the grill looks heinous.
>>28870689Man they really just keep getting worse
>>28870700Second this. E46 agreed line fine wine.
Yes I just had a stroke
>>28870689>E30 is the only one with the grill going through the entire front and the headlights integrated into it.Its such a good design element and they just threw it out the window.
>>28871672I like the E36, I think it and the E30 are both great. Everything since has been a downgrade. E46 still looked pretty good at least; but since then they've gone full retard culminating in the pig nosed Edsel style monstrosities we have now.
The stupid war with the Amerimutts and the sandpeople are causing gas prices to go out control where I live why do they do this?
>>28871777>this time
>>28871823Directly involved, they're the ones getting bombed this time (which is a good thing)
>>28871768>Always at warNot true, but it makes sense that an ignorant thrall like yourself would hold delusional false premises. At least you're not as delusional as maga cultists are.>>28871761Time for some weight reduction for better mpg. Maybe some lighter wheels would help. Not much you can do as long as we have a chomo as president. >>28871777The Americans dropped the bomb on Iran. Just because we shoot isreals enemy doesn't mean isreal pulled the trigger, they're just glad they're hit.
>>28871790Since the trojan war. get redpilled son
>>28871761>why do they do this?Iran was up next on Israel's list of neighbors it needed to destroy.
I'm sure people always come in here and want car suggestions. So I'm going to do you guys a favor and make another one.I'm on a fixed income(disabled) and got a sizeable backpay. I'm looking for a reliable car in the 5k-10k range. I don't want to spend thousands every year in repairs.But I also want a somewhat sport car, preferably a coupe as I'm the only one in the car.Some models I was looking at were old Volvo 240s and old BMW E36s. I really LOVE the box style of those cars. It just makes my brain tingle and I want one.I heard BMW has lots of maintenance costs, so I'm leaning towards something else but man I really want one.I'm really not fixed on these cars and trying to find other models to include before I make a decision.I think the attached image is peak car design.
>>28870659>I want a classic carNo you don't they're shit tbqhwy. There's a reason people come here to shit on everything expensive and brag about how easy to work on and how much money they save not owning a new car. It's because they're poor and have to work on cars nonstop. You think the average normie knows how easy his f150 is to work on? Lmao fuck no. It's literally not his problem.
>>28871536OP is broke and can't work on his own car so he can't have anything cool. You must either be able to work on your car or afford to pay out the ass for specialty shop rates in order to have anything cool
>>28870859V6 accord will smoke a old bummer and is dead reliable, it's the only onswer
>>28870659miata
>>28870659Do you need to it be fast, or are you just after a good looking coupe?> Volvo 240I assume you're just after something that looks cool.How about a Honda CR-Z?
Why aren't (you) hoarding chlorinated parts cleaner before it's too late?
>>28871895If I have it around I end up drinking it
>>28871895Because I have elevated liver enzymes thanks to chlorinated carb cleaner.I also don't like what it does to copper and brass.
>>28871895I just use kerosene, diesel or gasoline, does the same job.
>>28871895Whats so about this? I'm a phd chemist and work with toluene, dichloromethane, chloroform, dichloroethane/dibromoethane, and carbon tetrabromide almost everyday. One of the few things I'm really cautious handling are HMPA, however you guys are a bunch of fags
>>28872141>In a vent hood with PPE.
stupid questions go here
>>28869961this is clearly a bit but in case it isnt, you’d only see some marginal difference if they were aerodynamically superior or substantially lighter.
>>28869980not unless you enjoy seizing engines
>>28869980You're basically asking anons how to delete system32 on your car
>>28871449Suzuki still has to supply parts for it for like a decade, and they will probably do so for even longer than that unless they exit Europe altogether. The bigger issue is that the Jimny is really not good for regular city and highway driving, probably not a good only car.
Maybe you guys can help me with a price check: I'd like to replace all 4 springs on my Maverick. Rears i'm told by the internet are cake. Fronts need a spring compressor tool to swap them out and then an alignment is needed. For labor only, how much should a shop reasonably charge for springs and an alignment?
Is underseal from factory still seen as a pointless addition by new car buyers or was it just a 90s thing? Legendary Jewish sitcom Seinfeld also has a scene like pic related.
Seems a lot cheaper and more reliable to get krown every winter if you need it
>>28872094Just spray the shit outta everything with fluid film or whatever, does the same job.
>>28871966I'm so upset rn wow dude wow like really upset I need to sit down. Omg dude wow I'm upset.
>>28871336The vast majority of Americans have shit taste. Wow, what a shocker.
>>28871879Maybe on the front range... I see basically one Subaru locally and it has a "not a liberal" bumper sticker on the back window. Kek.
Are dodge and gmc really struggling that hard? Jesus.
>>28871336I find it interesting how popular Honda is the US compared to Europe. Here you often see Toyotas and Nissans but barely any Hondas. Even Mazda and Subaru are more popular.
I have a 2005 forester and it is fire, it holds a shit ton of stuff, always starts, is roughed up enough that I don't have to be careful with it, and it's a manual so I am set in the winter, and can totally fuck it up if I'm stupid enough B)
>>28870977I have a third gen from 2010, the last year they had before they swapped engines from the EJ.Bought it used about 8 years ago with 90K in the odometer, it's now just about to hit 200K, but it hasn't been smooth sailing, the coolant system went to shit and I mean the coolant system. First the radiator went, then the water pump (which I was told was indestructible, my ass it was) then when a hose went I just had them swap the thermostat and the overheating sensor cause at this point why the fuck not? it's not like it was gonna cost me hundreds more in repairs at this point, all problems blew on me on the road, all of them came with overheating spells leaving me on the side of the road, all of them within the same year.At this point I'm just saving money for a new car and driving this piece of shit until it blows up on me again, I hope it lasts the next 2 years so I can at least claim it lasted the full decade
>>28871003wrong you can look up subarus class action lawsuits.
I was driving a friend's 2016 Impreza once and it just literally died because the owner didn't keep up with the oil. Lube your Subes goddammit
>>28870977>Do yall fuck with mid 2000s Subarus?Nah, I prefer to drive them or work on them, but you do you. Just keep it to yourself.
>>28870977Yes. I have an 03. Get ready to swap a low mileage ebay motor into yours.
How are y'all coping with higher gas prices? Not too big of a deal for me yet but freedom isn't free as they say.
>>28872055I just drive off battery from my PHEV now. Should have gone full electric in hindsight.
>>28872057LOL
Eat shit commie
>>28872055 I'm running on stored reserves. Hopefully this panic bullshit blows over before too long.
>>28872068it already has lol
anyone ever do a brake booster delete? sick of nanny state technology bullshit getting between me and the road.
>>28871517Race cars should have individual brake controls for all four wheels. You'd probably have to do it with paddles on the wheel or something.
You can outbrake an abs in certain conditions. And of course not all abs units are the same. Where the abs will always win is in the most important place - where you aren't prepared and have to slam the brakes NOW to avoid an accident.
>>28871702It's harder to out brake ABS than people portray it. There's not a simple point on the pedal, the threshold is constantly changing as speed, tire heat, and brake heat change. In one braking event the threshold can vary by a lot.One wheel hits a bump and loses traction? You've locked up that wheel.My car doesn't have ABS, but I wish it did. ABS is great, but when they add stability control to it I'd rather go without both.
>>28869469You can on snow and ice. You have to or you aren't going to remain in control of the vehicle. If you just stand on the brake like a mindless NPC in those conditions you are going to get rekt
You've never lived until you drive a 4 wheel drum brake, no booster, no power steering vehicle on 37" tires.
>only about 3,200 manual SRT 392's were sold in America I didn't realize they were that rare.
>>28869972>6.4L was also in the srt8SRT-8 had a 6.1L with 425 hp. SRT 392 has a 6.4L with 485 hp
>>28869544I am in south Texas and as such I can run the summer tires year round. I won’t lie, I usually don’t drive the cars when it starts getting into the 40s because they are on summer tires. I have driven the Hellcat when it was freezing once and the summer tires didn’t feel great.
>>28869972the 2011 srt8 had the 6.4
>24.3 mpg on a 95 mile trip>spent a fair amount of time at 80 mph @ 1950 RPMHell yeah.
They should've stuck that Mercedes diesel V6 found in the 300C into the Challenger too.
