>tfw you sell your car and see it for the last time, driving away with a stranger
>new owner clutch dumps in front of you as he's driving away
>>29078943But that's just a thing.How can you become attached to a piece of metal?
>>29078946It's White culture, you wouldn't understand.
>>29078957So trve, xister. Being a sissy is also White culture, brownoids wouldn't understand.
>>29079138>t. eternally butthurt
>>29079138Saars
>tfw you have to write off your car and it gives you this look as the scrap hauler drives away
>>29078943she's not yours, it's just your turn.
>>29079194Don't give me an erection over a twingo anon
>>29078943Sell my car? As if. What am I, poor?
>>29079194That's exactly the reason why many either drive their car until it literally falls apart or they crash it so no one else gets it after them
>>29079205This is me. Still driving my 2004 and don't have any plans to stop.Dred the day I'll need to get a new (used) car.
>>29078943>tfw you see it getting dragged away on a wrecker
>>29079379>the cops are taking it away from you>was on its last legs so it had expired EVERYTHING including a fake state inspection sticker because fuck paying for thatSilver lining though.>hid my fake inspection sticker in the air vents>2 foid cops looked at my mostly empty car and found jack shit>get into my car one last time at the repo>take my cds and fake sticker out and bid it farewell2 lessons, 1 don't use solid rubberized undercoating, its a scam. 2 nothing can keep a car safe from salted roads except storing it safely through the winter.
>>29079452Pennsylvania?
>>29079455Upstate jew york.Thankfully I had a camry winter rat ready to go, was trying to do 4 more months on the rustang then scrap it in the spring.
>>29079452>>29079481>he lives upstateNGMIt. downstate subject of the DPRNY
>>29078943>tfw it drives away and the guy fully sends it with a cold engine and crunches every gear
>>29078943Never experienced that. Twice i have seen cars driving towards me with their to be ex owner in.
>>29079488I wonder what % of modern drivers even know about cold starts, or do they just always drive the same, hot or cold?
>>29079524There is a guy (round 50) at my workplace that essentially moves the car as soon as the starter is spinning.
>>29078943>sell it to someone local>see it parked where the owner works at almost daily for the next few years
>>29079488>Accidentally ground the reverse when I bought my cherry 1973 Vette because I wasn't used to pulling the weird grabber on the Muncy to get to the left of first gear, and forgot to push the clutch because my brain can't multitask.I was so fucking embarrassed. I've been good to her since then.
>>29078943I've never sold a running car.
>>29078943>Drove for a decade>Look out on the parking lot and see a lady parking next to mine.>Look up a minute later and she's inspecting my front passenger and running her hands over it.>"Oh shit, insurance time!">Go out to find out what she did.Turns out she was the previous owner and she was just excited to see it again (I purchased it from her dad while she was away). She proceeded to tell me how she put a couple of the dings in it and thanks me for looking after it for so long. I let her take a couple of photos of herself with and in the car for memories before parting ways.
>>29079524I generally leave work a few mins early to crank up and check traffic conditions until my car idles down, but every single one of my coworkers runs out of the building at 05:00:01.01 to fire theirs up and peel out immediately. anyway their cars are slowly being cycled out with leased bmws and various used tesla models while I've only spent money on consumables for basically a decade now
>>29079799a car does not need to idle for more than a minute or two in regular weather for street traffic driving.
>>29079703>tfw you go outside and it's been gone for a week
>tfw you will never sell your car even if it becomes unfixable
>>29080031>tfw can't sell car because it's unfixable
i have never sold a car
>>29080062Well yeah, you need to own one first anon
>>29080115i have three
>>29078946>a piece of metalAn ICE car breathes air, drinks fluids and has personality. When you drive a car for long enough, you're able to read how it's feeling and what makes it happy. If it isn't taken care of properly, it dies. A car is basically a pet that can take you places. If you don't get that, you're on the wrong board.
>>29080169This reminds me of those Strandbeests that are able to walk around and have sail or rain powered counterweights
>>29080169This seems too deep for 4chan.
>>29080169This needs to be a bumper sticker...
>tfw you catch a whiff of some fresh oil
>tfw
>>29080264Not a bumper sticker, it needs to be done in schizo whiter marker on a rear window
>>29078943>tfw you scrap your car
>>29080270oh fuck
>>29080058how'd you crash it?
>>29080302made me sad watching the tow truck take it away. i "donated" it to a local radio for a tax write credit (and a free tow) once it broke down ten miles from home for the last time
>>29080373RIP, what was it?
I have the videoNew owned died couple year laterCar probably ended in the junkyard
>>29078943My feeling is usually>thank god I got rid of it>I hope they don’t call me later
>>29080302>Huge pine tree fell on my car during a storm, totaled two other cars in the parking lot>Just let it sit there for over a week after the tree got cleared, not wanting to see it get hauled away but knowing I had to eventually
>>29079531This is pretty much everyone around me. Definitely no one ever waiting for the high idle to die down
>>29082420Did your insurance cover it?
Good fucking riddance
>>29078943Then don't sell it retard???You don't get shit for selling used cars anyways so might as well keep it.I had one boomer fag start crying as I was leaving.
>>29082680>I had one boomer fag start crying as I was leaving.Nice
>>29078943i only sell cars that i've started to hate
I have a Chrysler 2012 200 I'm looking to sell, but>The left driver's window only works if you hold it in juuuust the right place>Two of the tires deflate at a constant rate, no idea why. Once a month I have to fill them up to 42PSI. It'll drop down to 20PSI in a month's time.>Many stains in the backseat (bag of clementines I left there for a year + pussy juice stains)>Aux cable cover falls off if you touch it>Engine light for EVAP shows up about once every 3 months for about a week, then disappears??? Very consistent however.Do I disclose these cute quirks when selling it? I legitimately have no idea, I'm 29yo and this is the same car I've had since High School. I'm not a car guy at all. Looking to buy a reliable Civic or Camry. Will the dealer or whoever be mad and demand a refund?
>>29084328Drive it directly to the junkyard and stay inside of it when they turn it into a cube.
>>29082601No, the tree did
>>29082680its because he no longer knows what he got no lowballers
>>29079192My car got totalled recently by a guy running a stop sign and I nearly teared up as I was pulling all my shit out of it in the overgrown back lot at the body shop.I dailied that car for 7 years. Goodbye, my little Mazda.
>>29082680He only knew what he got once it was gone...
>>29078943tfw the forklift takes your car away to the scrapyard
>>29084674>tfw you will never have to experience this
>>29084683We get it, you ride a bus
>>29078943>sold one of my old cars to some nerdy white kid for his first car in college or something>see it parked at a restaurant near the college about a month later>it had ridiculous looking massive nog chrome wheels on it and a spoiler, he'd also put a hood scoop on itI don't even see Galant's around anymore and it was near mint shape before he got to it.
>>29078943
>my car is so "old" (19) that insurers only offer the mandatory service>which in practice means I pay yearly and they will never pay>it also means anything happens to it, its on meIt's still good and running, but any accident, tree or engine failure means gg, I have to buy a new one. It's always on my mind
>>29080169>>29078946
>>29080197top tier taste anon
>>29080169Beautiful
>Watching your car get hauled away by the junk manI can't take this kind of pressure. I'm sorry, 1992 Mercury Villager.
