Yes. In the middle of nowhere we install ticket machines so you don't even dare to park your shitty vehicle for free.
>>27632391Actually its true.I grew up in Wales, England, and can confirm that the South Downs range is notorious for this.Paramedics often airlift people from there who have been isolated on a grassy peak.
>>27629754Those places do get overcrowded at times though. Parking controls limit crowding.>>27630563Is altitude sickness from south Downs contagious? Ive been told I have Downs syndrome but I've never been there.
>>27630878no you need to get out of your city, there are multiple states that look exactly like op's pic
This is bugging me. Where the fuck is OP pic from?I tried Gizoogling everything, AI-assisted search for the parking logo with the half-gear, nothing matches.It's says "TICKET" in Anglo so it must be an Anglo-friendly Eurocunt. But which one?

Why is it that every time someone posts on here about help installing some bass ackwards band-aid, then gets told to just fix the problem, they have a temper tantrum about how working on a car is some impossible task?I get that I was lucky to have my dad teach me things, but do wrenchlets genuinely believe that something like changing oil or spark plugs or a battery, is not just difficult but some insurmountable obstacle? Or are they just attention whoring?
>>27621183I think it's just frustrating sometimes even with the wealth of knowledge on the Internet because it might not be geared towards their skill level
>>27621254i had a 13yo pudgy kid show me how to adjust carb float height the other day. i don't know how people learned wrenchletry before, it's so easy
>>27633048>how DARE you point people towards helpful easy-to-understand info!>instead of doing that, you should hold their hand every step of the way and come to their house to be their unpaid mechanic!
>>27633236You’re hyperbolizing for no reason like a spiteful cunt, no wonder you have no friends. All I’m seeing here is insults and not any actual help.
>>27632813If you think that then you definitely aren't going to be able to work on a car. I agree it's too difficult for you.
Will there ever be anything like a Gen 2 Prius again? Over-engineered to achieve amazing reliability (i.e, 500k+ miles with only routine maintenance), great interior space and simple layout, and a non-aggressive / fancy exterior?I feel like this was the greatest car of all time, and I'm upset that I don't have the opportunity to buy a new one and am stuck searching for used ones. The newer models have less interior space and look too edgy.
>>27632401A great cordless drill doesen't make me want to drill random holes. It makes my life easier when I do, that's it.
>>27632401>t. Has nowhere to goSad
>>27632401>Great cars make you want to driveThat's just propaganda. Remember that driver's cars are a luxury and ultimately only remembered by car enthusiasts. Great cars are also ones that get the world moving. There's only a couple cars that come to mind as people's cars, like the Model T, Model A, VW Beetle, Citroen 2CV, etc. None of those cars were driver's cars and without the boring people movers that transport the needs of the world, you wouldn't have the sports cars that you wanted in the first place. The Prius sits firmly in the people's car category of great cars. It showed hybridization is not only viable, but anyone can have it. Back then, everyone thought hybridization was impossible and there was no hope in hell that it would be economically viable. In CY+9, over half of Toyota's lineup can be hybridized. Automakers still license Toyota's hybrid system because creating one indigenously is ridiculously difficult and not worth their while.Cars like that are your breadwinners, so that you can have exciting cars that make you want to go nowhere like an /o/tist. Those Priuses and Camrys make the GR series and the Supra possible, because they can't stand on their own. On a more extreme example, Porsche owners screech about the Cayenne and Macan but without those SUVs/crossovers, you would have no 911. Same with Bentley and Rolls-Royce. The SUVs are their best sellers and draw the ire of purists, but without them you have no rocketships.
>>27630668It doesn’t matter at all, anon. Really. I got made fun of all the time in high school for my $1,000 shitbox, but it was just people taking the piss. People don’t actually care what you drive, unless you’re some realtor trapped in hell.
>>27631748I don't think so, the Law of Supply and Demand dictates that the high demand for Rav4 parts will drive up repair costs.
This is the last picture that my boyfriend took of me working on my truck before I totaled it. I couldn't see over the steering wheel, and some libtard with truck derangment syndrome brake checked me after I was tailing them for only going 75 in a 50. I miss this truck so much bros
>>27633337RIP.You can rent a 26 foot Uhaul in the meantime. But let me tell you, once you go 26, there's no going back to a piddly little pickup.
>>27633337Go back
>>27633370Truck derangement syndrome. You're just mad that my pickup truck gets lots of compliments at the pride meetups.
This mechanic has been operating a shop out of the Home Depot parking lot for weeks and Home Depot hasn't done shit. There is an O'Reilly's on the property so he is all set. This proves that there is always somewhere to work on your car.
>>27633101Not every successful mechanic starts out with a shop.
>>27625069Beats wrenching on the side of the road
>>27625194He's not paying taxes, he's not supporting the insurance system, and the corporate real estate system. Basically he's cheating instead of playing this rigged game called society.
>>27633130They start out working in someone else’s shop.
>>27631398I'm so glad i don't live in some low trust, nosy, pushy shit hole like you where retards act out their gay power trips via HOA bylaws. Wholly un-American and painfully communist.I keep my classic/project parked on the street 6 months of the year and it has led to countless positive interactions with neighbors.
Is this a good first car? I just need a nice ride to get to work and backWhat are common issues to look out for?

>>27632808Well, fuck you too buddy.
>>27629766Good cars.
>>27629766I daily the Acura version for 3 years now. It's alright. I had to replace the timing chain and head gasket for around $3000 CAD last year. Mine is stick so no automatic issues to worry about.

I recently hauled 1200lbs of tiles in my 2019 F150 limited that I have had from new.I felt the back sag and I am wondering if I broke something because I hear guys saying they feel nothing when they load there truck. Did I overload mine going over a half ton? I am thinking I may need to upgrade to a 3/4 or 1 ton in case I need to haul again. How do I hide the fact that I overloaded my current one from a prospective buyer are their signs?
>>27632382I did 1200 lbs in a Mazda 3. It's still fine. I'll probably install some airbags into the springs.
>>27632382first you should check the door sticker to determine your payload capacity. 1200lbs likely did not overload your f150. Half ton trucks sag when loaded up because they have springs that give better ride quality over stiffer springs for higher payload capacity. Sagging when loaded is expected and not indicative of overloading. That being said I have overloaded my 1500 plenty of times and unless you actually break something (like a shackle or shock or something) there won't be signs. Do it enough and you could flatten out your leaf springs I guess.
>>27632712This. I flattend my leaves on my truck and only broke a left when I tried to hoon the cloverleaf interstate entrance ramp with like 2,000 lbs of flooring in the bed and the flooring shifted and broke free of the pallet wrap and went to one side. I didn't even know I broke anything until the leaf swung out and started grooving a tire. Got new springs and it's crazy high in the back now.
>>27632984mine are definitely flattened lol. Only problem I had was when I broke a leaf spring shackle and the spring went up into the bed. Made a big dent and started coming through a bit where it tore the metal. Not sure when exactly it happened but my guess was when I was hauling some plywood or drywall over some railroad tracks. I am considering doing a spring replacement as well for less sag, but I am planning on ordering a Tremor soon so not sure if its worth it to me. To be fair though that failure could have been caused by rust. Around here bed mounts can rust away and they can fall off. My buddies is held on with one or two bolts, and mine has a couple snapped off as well. Its actually relatively uncommon to see GMT800s around here now because of the rust.
>>27632382>I put half a ton, in my half ton pickup. It felt slightly heavy in the back while I had that 1000lbs of stuff in there. OP, I get that you're worried, but did you even try thinking about this before posting here? It's fine.
How do i stop this? Im big sad
>>27632607Move south
>>27632739I am in florida, car was a michigan car at one point and this is the only rust spot i want my baby backkkk
>>27632607>chop out rust affected area (preferably in a shape with as many straight lines as possible)>cut a piece of metal that's the same gauge as the body>cut/file/bend the metal patch until it matches the curve of the body panel>carefully file the patch and/or opening so they fit snugly together with as small of a gap as possible>tack it in place>weld the seams with short little pulses of weld while quenching the panel with a wet rag in between welds to keep heat down>carefully grind welds flat with the edge of a cutoff wheel>sand panel down to roughly smooth it out>skim coat bondo>roughly block it in>hose it with some touch up paintEz. If you don't get rid of all the rust and just cover it up, the cancer will continue to spread. If you're a real lazy nigger, just glob some Por15 over the whole thing inside and out to slow down the rust.
>>27632607its fine
why do some people absolutely SEETHE at lane split gods?
>>27633038Oh my god! When I second I thought this was just a looping vid. the reality was much more hilarious! I thank you for the laugh. Is there a story behind this?
