I need a truck because it endargers cyclist /n/iggers, the more cyclists get maimed or killed the better
>>29063546You are fat.
>>29063574You are flat.
>>29063574SEETHING /n/igger lmao
>>29063540Oh I know, its just funny how much they are going to have to cook the stats in order to make this shit believable. Such as your pic related booking. I've yet to see one reliable source on their bullshit, yet they keep spewing the same rhetoric.
>In Europe, owning a rebadged VW Jetta with a huge grill is a flexJust save your money and buy a Skoda Octavia it's the same thing lmao
>>29061566The twin turbo rs6 did have a dry sump. It couldn't fit into the c6 platform otherwise

When back to 1980s we talked about some car can let everyone afford to drive
>>29062141>Shill? The tit was terrified of slightly moist dirt for fear of getting stuck, she's harming KIA's reputation if anything.Pretty sure it's the same "not bot" that can't understand the difference between protective undercarriage plates and decorative bumpers. This "real person" can photograph the vehicle but cannot look underneath the same vehicle.The only "people" who aren't pissed with their kiahyundai purchase magically post here on /o/. So "weird". So "not astroturf".I'm "certain" this isn't an ad campaign to keep us talking about a brand that would otherwise not be mentioned.
I went to the dealership today after a while and they were pushing financing on me like crazy. What the actual fuck? Cash has always been king. If you have enough cash why on Earth would you drag yourself into APR bullshit? You can't possibly be thinking about investing into something so risky that it could outperform an 8% rate, can you?
>>29062755Simmer down debtslave
>>29063488>Boomer calling anyone else a debtslavelmao even
>>29062755Why do you hate cash so much, kid? You've never seen it in your life?
>>29061959>Cash has always been kingHaven't been true for decades.You get the best deals and are treated better when financing because the dealerships make more money when financing.The most financially savue move is to:1.) Have enough cash to buy the car outright2.) Negotiate the best loan you can by leveraging your cash (high down payment, threatening to buy it outright instead of financing etc. etc.)3.) Put in X amount of cash that gives you the best deal for a loan4.) Put the rest of the cash in investments that average a higher return percentage than whatever the loan percentage is5.) Lower what you normally invest monthly by the amount needed to make the monthly loan payment6.) That money taken from your monthly investment budget is used to pay the loan
>>29063567That's an elaborative advice. Thank you, anon!

>>29063350There's no such thing, bumper stickers are emblematic (no pun intended) of mental illness. they reek of a desperate need to be heard by people who have been ignored. This is why the majority of them are about subjects that are annoying. Don't thread of me or Hate has no home here tier politics, cringe sarcastic internet jokes, My son is an honor student at this average school, etc. All of those people have one thing in common: They're being ignored by someone, or they're afraid they're gonna be ignored by someone, hence why they feel like they MUST have their say no mater what

What are you boys working on and what are you waiting on? What monkey wrench has been thrown in your lovely weekend plans?For me, I just discovered I need new rear drum cylinders when doing the full brake job and lift on this old tracker. Thank God, Amazon delivers on Sunday.
>>29061845ACK!
>>29057983Multiple things stopped me. The ball joint nut yeah it needed heated. I don’t have a torch. For that and the seized tie rod end (got the nut off that) my dad has a torch and cut help me there. The problem now is the wheel bearing is seized in the knuckle. Even the wheel hub can’t be easily removed. YouTube showed people just hitting them out with a hammer. I bought a used knuckle from eBay and that is seized just as bad. This whole experience has been a pain in the ass.
>>29017642loose wheel bearings turned into a wheel hub replacement which turned into a cv axle replacement which turned into a ball joint replacement which turned into a transmission fluid flush which turned into a sway bar link replacement which leaves me now at an abs sensor replacement. I probably need to replace the brake rotors too.
>>29063489do you have any tools that aren't hammers?
>>29063491120k miles and probably the first time any of this stuff was done. when i did the wheel hub i noticed the axle boots failed and needed to be replaced. while doing the axle i did have to pound the shit out of the ball joint to get it free which ruined it. when i got the axle out it dumped fluid everywhere so as long as it needed to be topped up i may as well do a full replace. while i was doing that i noticed the sway bar link just dangling there since the rear mount sheared. first drive after that the abs light went off which could be a coincidence or one of both of them got damaged while i was in there. figured fuck it just replace both since the code reader won't tell me which is bad.
why are almost all famous aftermarket wheel brands from japan? do other countries just not care enough to make them?
>>29063024Would look pretty sweet on an Opel Diplomat Coupe. Even came with a Chevy 327 option.
>>29063033>>29063037oops i mean the more blobby looking ones. like a 90s civic or accord
>>29062530American Racing created the Torque Thrust in 1963.They made more of just that style than some of the companies itt entire production volume over their entire history.
Crazy how many companies that are out there that ARENT japanese.
>>29062956Oi mate that's a good lookin' Sunraysia
I will only drive their cars until I die.
>>29059985i agree, just like how you don't need fuel in your car, either.
>>29055653Mine was made in Thailand. If I switch to Toyota it will probably be Turkey. Why should I care, as long as the engineers, designers, and decision makers are Japanese?>>29059964They are the least enshitified.
>>29063251>Why should I care, as long as the engineers, designers, and decision makers are Japanese?Do you really think they have any say in the Tundra, Tacoma or 4Runner? Those are all designed and engineered in North America.
>>29055653i was made in india too

>>29061853for me i made peace with the rust and just decided to drive it as much as i possibly can before it is fully consumed
>>29061390Sick ride, I like your wheels.And yeah, I have had some sketchy cars trough the years. I broke down and fixed my car on the side of the road, got towed and a good example, pic is a body on frame, wich is fine, but it would also be nice of those two were actually connected together by more than gravity and hopes and dreams. Got that fixed by a guy I sometimes do some engine work for. That's how it goes and I am used to it. But that brings me back to guys like my neighbor, not really a car guy expecting to drive a 40+ year old car 300/400km a day, reliable and for cheap. Even if he gets some Volvo or Mercedes it will wear out in a few years running it like that, not to mention all the surprises an old car will come up with

Talk me out of getting a hybrid car /o/
>>29062518PHEV are probably a bad idea for the long haul. Out of all EVs they treat the battery the worst (having you charge it 85-100% then drain it to 20% each day), a regular hybrid typically just keeps the battery at 40-60%.Then you have to deal with the mental anguish of having a weaker EV mode but you're trying to get everything done without touching gas. Then you have old rotting gas. Then you have a lower volume vehicle with a less common battery, while the base model Toyotas are all hybrids and batteries will be in the junkyard to pull.
>>29062611They've been in use as taxis with 500k miles just like prius. They have their own issues (ford fit and trim is just shittier) but the drivetrain isn't one.
>>29062507Make your own decision like a man you puss.
I wish my expedition max had a hybrid available but it doesn't and at the current time in my life I need the literal biggest suv I can buy
>>29063228Yes a PHEV is the worst of both worlds.

A 2.0L 4-cylinder, hybrid from Stuttgart or Munich makes as much power as a supercharged V8 american car and doesn't require a petrol station stop every 100 km.
>>29054749Was ist die Autobahn?Not even European, but you really left yourself open for that one.
>>29054718seething libtards who think more about American politics than their own, yea.Average European Man thinks of American cars as a curiosity, focused on comfort more than anything else.
>>29054774That's why no EVs are running 7s in the quarter mile right?
>>29054774so are electric motors and batteries
>>29054772my friend who loves japanese cars always likes to shit on american cars because of muh hp/l. I mean sure, a mopar 318 or a ford 300 makes a whopping 150hp out of the factory because of smog equipment and mild cams, which is about the same as an sr20de, but at least american V8s have tuning potential (I'm not sure about the ford 300, seems like a boat anchor to me even though I own one)

If you had a couple weeks to drive around Japan, where would you visit?

>>29062960Daikoku is now a cop hotspot because dickhead foreigners (mostly jeets and brazillians) turn up in rented cars and cause a scene. This has meant many people who used to turn up in their cars no longer do. The Fun2Drive guided tour is much better.
I'd rather visit the US. Japan sucks shit.

Is this the most pathetic unpunished action someone can do to your car? Have you done it to someone before?
Simply kill someone of the same race as the perpetrator.Payment complete.
>>29062928this but unironically. the solution is either theft (return to at least one person who is a member of "the people") or an overly theatric terrorist incident just to make a point but also demonstrate that the politician in question has well-funded, competent, but most importantly well-orchistrated adversaries
A lot of vandalisms are simply random due to people feeling better by relieving their personal angst onto other peoples' cars.
