What kind of fucking moron would do this instead of just buying a gun and shooting himself in the head? (Pic related is in Pennsylvania, USA, so he could have done that easily.)

There's intense fear leading up to shooting yourself, and executing people by firing squad traumatizes the people carrying it out. It's inherently extremely violent.
Hypoxia allows you to gently shuffle off this mortal coil without even knowing that it's happening.
Go watch some videos on it, past a certain point you just lose all awareness and you're off in la la land.

>Sobel was born and raised in a Jewish family of four children in Chicago, Illinois
>Sobel was intensely disliked by the men under his command, who saw him as a petty, arbitrary, domineering tyrant who handed down cruel punishments for the most minuscule of infractions, real or imagined
he officers in Easy Company nicknamed Sobel "the Black Swan," and the enlisted men frequently referred to him as a "fucking Jew" when he was out of earshot.
Every single time. He even realized everyone hated him too late and fucked that up.

For a new car it's refreshing. It's by far not on the first Twingo's level but it's alright for what it is and I like seeing it instead of the average gray shitover blob.

Let's get back to the real cars and take a shit on Gas Babys.

Absolutely livid I can't have one here in America. First thing I'd do is delete the emissions , upgrade turbo and injectors and enjoy it with a nice tune. But what is a "Gas Baby"? Gas Babies :

>Don't understand that gasoline engines aren't practical or best use case for EVERYTHING vehicle.

The 427 cammer is a fantastic engine. Your rebuttal only reinforces my point.

Yeah in a speciality vehicle that's designed to resemble a bullet, not an actual production chassis.

You're the one coping. I've met a few multi millionaires in my day. Some flash their wealth and got a 50-50 income to debt ratio. Others still daily a '98 Toyota Camry or a 2004 Jetta TDI Wagon

I have an 2018 wagon 1.6mjet 2 and have shy of 180k kms. The issues I had were 2 sets of glowplugs, apparently they are used a lot for regen purposes, (I snapped one and the tip fell on the cilinder so I had to take it to a shop to have the whole head removed). O2 sensor, leaking water pump. One window elevator and a battery. The rest was just maintenance. The only gripe I have with it is the placement of the filter behind the right front wheel.
This being said I so live in the south of europe, no rust/electrical gremlins to report. Parts tend to be cheap as wrll
The interior is kinda cheap with a lot of plastic if you can overlook that it's a solid car
>>
>>29128716
i can to pay more, it's just that my family never owned a car, so i don't have much driving experience, hence i'd prefer to drive a cheaper used car that i won't care if it gets scratched or dented too much, instead of buying a new corolla for 20k euros
>>
>>29127629
Tipo is pre Stellantis iirc. They get you a wtf here because Fiat only makes the 500.
>>
>>29127614
My girlfriend drives 2018 Tipo - the car is slow and boring but other than that, it just works - not a single major failure for over 100k km, cheap to maintain, cheap to repair, new enough to support android auto without an aftermarket chink ipad.
>>
>>29127614
Only good if you live in Turkey (they are produced in turkey so literally infinite spare parts). Otherwise you're better off getting a golf or polo around the same price range. Tipos are decent commuters if you regularly maintain them but you might find the interior quality poor.

emissions laws mean it is preferable to put a V8 in an SUV than a compact car
same reason why there's no small pick-ups any more
>>
>>29127059
The bigger the power the more things need to build around that power. Chassis that doesn't deform under preassure. Brakes that can actually stop the car safely and quickly. Suspensions that can actually handling the force. Wheels that can accomodate the weight and load. Transmission that can survive the torque and power spikes/shocks. Engine bay that can fit the big engine while still providing enough room for maintainance and cooling. All of that translates to weight and size. And we aren't even talking about safety standards or emissions yet.

Riddle me this:
If an i4, an i6 and a v8 have comparable capacities and rpm ranges why does the v8 need it's sparks replacing more often when each cylinder fires at half the frequency of the i4. And why does the i4 fail sooner than the i6?
4 replies and 1 image omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>29125916
Each cylinder fires once per two crankshaft rotations. Doesn’t matter if you have 1,4,8, or 16 cylinders. the same rpm means the same number of sparks per cylinder.
>>
>>29125951
as the other anon said, they both fire at the same time for improved combustion
>>
>>29126322
You are never going to convince anyone of this. note that many distributorless systems fire also on the exhaust stroke because crank position is crank position.

Nice try Riddler, it's clear your mechanical acumen is lacking. How about you riddle this for me instead?
>V8s have used sequential firing systems for decades from mechanical distributors to coil per plug
>Inline 4s and V6s in comparison have used wasted spark setups for decades up to the turn of the 21st millenium
>This means sparkplugs are fired more than sequential setups like those on thr V8s
>Inline 6s hardly used wasted spark systems, making them last longer than Inline 4s as they don't fire at twice the rate per plug
>So if Inline 6s last better, and they use the same firing system than V8s, what else could be contributing to sparkplug failure?

I will give you a hint, Edward: it's all in the electrode. America's finest. Burns twice as bright and twice as fast, but you won't be running fast enough to escape the hood of the Batmobile's Hemi Supercharged V8.

>>
>>29125721
The top speed of a 50cc will impede traffic on regular roads, and takes a good 15 20 seconds to get there.
When you up the cc to 150-250, you are competing against the used car market where you have a trunk and 4 seats. Not to mention the faggotry image of being seen on one of these.
They simply just doesn't work in America.
400cc Sport bike is entry level to get on the freeway. 650cc is where things start to make sense. But, at 650, you are making a lifestyle choice and money that could get you a reasonable used sports car.

Only in the worst city in Australia man. I used to work at Yamaha City (back when Aprilia city existed). Hauling 15 bikes on the foot path every morning whilst about 3000 people walk past was aids, but a fun aids. Dropped a fat fuck Falco once coz the panniers clipped a docile pajeeta on her phone lol.
Also I live in Japan now, motorcycle parking for big bikes is very rare but cheap, 125 mini bikes like Groms are the way to go in the city. I live inna woods tho so rarely need to park.
Car parking in Tokyo is fuckrd but Osaka is about 8-20 bucks for 24 hours in the busy parts.

NTA, but I've been a mechanic for longer than you've been alive.
Exhausts aren't just random tubing the engineers threw on there to get the exhaust gasses behind the car, every contour of it is important to manage the pressure and flow of it. Too much backpressure and the engine can't respirate properly, too little and the exhaust valves won't oscillate properly.
If you keep driving your truck with the muffler like that, you will do irreparable damage to the engine.
>>
>>29127484
the exhaust pressure is a minuscule fraction of what the springs are exerting, and the cam is the one making the valve move
