@attackackack Mazda seems to be the only manufacturer left making anything decent. Everyone else is dealing with blown engines, CVT transmissions, garbage infotainment systems that brick the car, or random fires. Either that, or buy something that’s 20 years old.
@SenWarren Elon provides value, and becomes a trillionaire, so you want to steal it in the name of “fairness”, yet you and your cronies steal 4x that much from the citizens every year, and still manage to be almost 40x that much in debt. Fuck off you thieving cunt!
@palmbtcX 5 years old? Absolutely not. 15 years old, maybe. 25 years old, now we’re talking! New cars are absolute shit, and totally overpriced. Stuff made in the late 90s-early 00s is perfectly capable on modern highways, and simple and reliable enough to keep running literally forever .
@prieurdp It’s safer. Easier to see if anyone is coming down the aisle when you’re pulling out forward. And if you know how to drive, it really doesn’t block traffic for any longer than pulling in forward.
@gotrice2024 Running 87 in a car that requires 91+ will likely result in worse fuel mileage as the computer will retard ignition timing to protect the engine. However running 91+ in a car spec’d for 87 will not improve fuel mileage, power, or anything.
@MassieNation19 Never. Literally not once in all of human history. Government has always been a parasite that exploits the people, and it will always be that until it is abolished.
@LoveRetroBTW This was by far the best football video game ever! I loved that you had to remember which players died when choosing your plays, otherwise nobody would be there to catch the ball.
@ShitpostRock2 Him fucking over Job to prove a point to the devil was pretty fucking evil! Or ordering the slaughter of Philistines. Or asking Abraham to sacrifice his son. Those are just off the top of my head. Old Testament God was at least as evil as any other god before or since.
@ThrillaRilla369 Yup. A buddy of mine quit cold turkey from 2 packs a day when he realized that he could lease a BMW 5-series for what he was spending on cigarettes.
@NickFreiling It depends what you get. Buying a random used car can certainly backfire, but buying a 15yo Camry, or Accord, or Crown Vic, or anything with a GM 3800, you are pretty much guaranteed to save money over time.
@MRpoproppo I’m with you on the easy part, but definitely not the fun part. Nothing fun to me about being carted around by a machine. It’s just a less dangerous version of riding the bus.
@captainpisslord I could deal with a carbed DD. A Quadrajet or a Carter/Edelbrock are pretty maintenance-free. I could even deal with no radio, but I need electronic ignition. Having to adjust gap, dwell, and timing every other oil change is a PITA! Especially when you do 20k+ miles per year.
