You must pick one vehicle to place in a sealed vault for 100 years. It will be perfectly preserved. What is it?
VW XL1.

Obliviously this
2003 Honda Accord V6 6MT
I have to drop the gas tank on my late-model Challenger. It has a pretty spacious rear end and when I crawled under there I found that I could fit pretty easily and most of the bolts seem reachable with a joint connector and an extender. Does anyone know if this is a job that can be done easily without jacking up the car or is there something that I'm missing that would make jacking it up essential? Just want to ensure that I'm not in a position where the tank is half-way off and then I run into problems.
>>28625242nope, disconnect the sending unit, fuel and vent lines, filler neck, loosen the strap nuts and there ya gojust make sure it's empty first...
>>28625242Jack it up anyway. It's so much easier to work on everything under there when you have an extra foot between the car and the ground.
>>28625433Great, thanks! I'll be sure to drain it.>>28625445It's on dirt right now and I don't want to jack on dirt. I could move it, but if I don't have to that's easier for the time being plus I don't have to worry too much about a stable lift which gives me peace of mind.
Why are vehicles measures in horse power instead of something like bull power?

is it just current year's cheapest midlife crisis car or what
>>28625535which magazine is this? c&d? just curious
Which one is better for everyday driving? I've read that the BRZ has superior ride quality.
>>28625558The Rav4
>>28625558Brz has suspension tuning more suited for a comfortable daily while the 86 has stiffer springs that likes to oversteer more.
dunno why people here are recommending the camaro. it's ugly. just get the 86
Now that Mercedes have returned to the inline six, is there any reason to buy a hideous BMW?

>>28616824That truck was about 12 years old on 9/11. The average life expectancy for a fire truck is 20 years. After the towers fell, many older trucks that had been mothballed were put into service temporarily.
>>28622120Some of the trucks that were refurbished were only recently retired within the last couple years.

BMW M8 vs base porsche 911 Who you got?
>>28623487yes.. :(
why the fuck does a base 911 cost 130k now. i get everyone wants to max profits but this car cannot possible cost more than 60k to build
>>28623503Because lots of people are ready to pay that price to own one.And labor costs in Zuffenhausen are much more expensive than in Chinese sweatshops.
>>2862350327.5% tariff on German cars. thank you trump.
>>28625382Germans pay 160k for the same thing lmfao
I’m aware cars nowadays are mostly plastic leasebait, but still, if you were to buy a fairly recent, fun car with the intention of keeping it for a long time, what would you buy and why?
>>28622238Lexus makes cars for people who use their <$20/hr wage to buy designer t-shirts, sneakers, and gold chains
>>28623872>We live in a world where people have done crazy shit like mod a Lambo for off-roadingThat's so much easier than retrofitting your own custom ECU into a modern car and if you can't understand why then you do not have the requisite knowledge to attempt either task.
>>28624545Huh
>>28624560There aren't people you can just pay to do it for you? I just want an LS swapped Crosstrek rally machine.
>>28622325We love nivas desu, great shitboxes for long mountain range drives. What’s the kvetching about
Death of ORG edition. Last thread didn't even reach bump limit. Let's post our trucks for the haters. Previous thread: >>28468078
>>28623100actually i didn't do anything but mock you for posting a broken axle housing as evidence to their lack of strength. they're universally accepted as stronger. get over it
>>28625205I didnt post the axle, im pointing out you're a clown for failing to make an argument
What's equivalent to this and not made in Mexico and still looks cool and still in production.
>>28625459I'm gonna buy it if no one answers so you better not bully me

Call me retarded, but im at my wits end with this fucking thing.2001 GMC Yukon Denali (LQ4 engine)This fucking sensor defies all logic. I can not find a single tool anywhere that works. >1-1/16th socket: too shallow>AutoZone OPS 1-16th socket “for GM vehicles”: too shallow>1-1/16th wrench: too wide to be able to turn within the casting of the block>order deepwell 1-1/16th socket: STILL TOO SHALLOWOkay you son of a bitch>grind the “meat” off the wrench with an angle grinder to give it more room to turn within the casting.>just fucking slips off every timeSeriously am i missing something here? Am i a God damned retard? I can see why GM switched to the version with the smaller plastic female end in later model years, because this is fucking impossible with the engine OUT, i couldnt even imagine doing it with the engine in. But what were GM technicians doing in 2001???Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>28624965>>28624968Were you able to get a socket on it? I have the intake off already, but every socket ive tried so far cant accommodate the plastic part of the sensor, and every wrench cant fit because of the casting of the block itself.
>>28624975Do you have a new sensor already that you can test fit with sockets? The GMT900 one I did literally yesterday just needed the socket to be tapped down onto the sensor with a baby hammer, I just used my run of the mill 27mm impact socket.
>>28624993Well i tried to force the sensor into the socket by hand, but i didnt try tapping it in with a hammer. Might be a tight fit but i suppose its worth a try. Ill try tonight and report back
>>28624902I just did mine recently and used this socket. I had the stubby sensor but it seems long enough to accommodate those longer sensors. The actual mating surface on those sensors isn't very much so be real careful side loading the sensor with a normal tapered socket. It wouldn't take much to strip it then you're in a real world of shit. Also be careful if you're using swivel joints.

>I live in rural America and the law says that I have to drive a truck
>>28621035Yeah, it's the American trucks that people buy by the dozen
>>28621002Australian car companies were under US ownership for many decades. Many cars were barely modified American rebadges.
>>28619492>I'm OP and the law says I must drink gallons of semen every day
I need a truck because trucks are more dangerous to faggotcycles than cars
