New York's DMV is trash, hold times like crazy and the employees eventually just hang up, and at all times of day the call volume is "too high" and I'm asked to call again later.
>it's never anything other than high volume
I'm active duty military out in Arizona trying to get my New York suspension settled so I can drive again. Got my license out in AZ when I got stationed here, so all resolution has to be made through NY DMV.
Recap: Arizona license, NY suspended, AZ DMV cannot help me because out of state suspension, NY not helping, have yet to speak to anyone
Anyone else ever run into this problem before? Any advice or help one could give would be greatly appreciated, help me out bros
Hire a lawyer.
Don't get your license suspended in the first place, dirt bag. And then don't complicate the matter by leaving the fucking state before resolving it jesus christ you're so stupid.
Keep trying call anytime you can.. new York dmv sounds like absolute hell. Try some different dmvs around the state
What does /o/ think of Buick LeSabres? There's a guy selling a 2000 LeSabre for $2200.
Been told that Buicks are pieces of shit that overheat very easily while also reading that they're fantastic cars that can be just as good as a Toyota while also being comfy as hell.
What do you guys think? I just want a car that can reliably take me from point A to B without breaking the bank too excessively.
Just in case, the photo included is NOT the car being sold but it's the same model and color. Just found it on Google.
They're reliable as long as you don't beat on them and do stupid shit. Parts are cheap as hell too. Just find one that's been used by an older person and some ghetto foodstamp nigger family.

Figured as much. I'll check if the person didn't do anything stupid with it like racing or anything.
At this point rust is your biggest concern, check the pinch weld and rockers carefully. If that hasn't rusted yet and it has the 3800 it's a pretty solid car. I know some of those buicks have rear wheel alignment issues because of the independent suspension but once that's sorted out you'll have a comfy, reliable car.
Where did it go so wrong?
Also L37 or LD8?
Hi guys,
Would any of you happen to know of any popular franchise of car dealers in the Asian regions?
Not your general Toyota or Honda franchise, but more of a company brand name that resells a variety of these types of cars?
Any help is appreciated.

Just wanted your advice, /o/. I'm looking to buy my first Porsche but only have a budget of $25,000. With this limitation, I've set my sights on the classic 1978-1983 911SC. I plan on it being my daily car but is it even practical? Do the maintenance/repair costs outweigh the appeal?
Im fairly young and this'll actually be my first car after college. I've just started getting into working on cars and I've heard the 911SC is a lot of maintenance but I'm a ship engineer so working on machines isn't foreign to me.
Is this car worth it? Are there better Porsches in this budget?
If you love classic Porsches then this is probably the best you'll get for the money. They need a lot of care though, old 911s are infamous for breaking if you take your eye off the oil pressure gauge for 10 seconds.
As for other Porsches, you're looking at relatively new stuff like 987s and 996s, or maybe the electrical nightmare that is the 928 S4.
As cool as the 911SC is, I don't think you want it as a daily.
Play it safe and get a 987. You'll get a nice one in that price range that some normie drove to get groceries.
So recently my 07 civic ex has had a lot of trouble getting into gear on cold starts in the morning. It usually goes away as the clutch is used and the car warms but sometimes not. It wasnt too bad but the last couple of days it has grinded 3rd twice and 2nd once while i had my foot on the clutch. What the fuck O do i need a new clutch? Mine is bretty old.
>>17864116
You need to replace your transmission fluid, or add some at the very least.
>>17864116
Bump for interest. Have the same problem and I just changed my trans fluid.
>>17864116
Slave cylinder, clutch master cylinder, clutch hose, new fluid.

Hello my fellow memers.
Im pretty lost
I want to sell my Blazer 2-Door 4x4 that drives like shit. Do I sell it on craiglist or just trade it in toward the used SRT-4 I want (pic.) listed at 6,999 from a dealer near me 80k miles
any tips would be much appreciated. I have a full-time job and OK income. I just want to save money here and not get cucked.
bump
On any old beater type car/truck the dealer will give the bare minimum.
They offered my friend $300 on a 98 AWD 5.0 explorer with new michilin M/S tires.
Test drive, put a deposit down, but blazer on Craigslist and take first decent offer. Unless the dealer is willing to give you a decent trade value, not likely on an old blazer.
I got $1700 for that explorer on Craigslist, and let me tell you, I had people spam calling me and texting me, if I could grow old reliable 4x4s on a tree and sell em I would.
I don't know if you expect to finance that car but it's too old for any major bank. Maybe local banks or a personal loan. Don't do any deals with a buy her pay here lot though.
Not OP but I was also curious about this.
I saw a dealer's CL listing for a used car that I liked, but their price with tax was over the average or suggested KBB price from a dealer.
How do I go about haggling that price down? Do used dealers even bother with haggling these days?
Last night I had a dream.
In my dream I was driving alone my car down a perfect asphalt countryside road, lined by green fields dotted by picturesque cottages on both sides, with gentle curves and elevation changes. I remember feeling really good, it was a really pleasant ride. But suddenly I spotted a huge, two deck black bus (similar to pic related, but it wasn't a Benz), that was following me at approximately 30 meters. At first I didn't mind, but later the ominous presence of this bus started to perturbate me. I began accelerating, trying to lose the bus but even if I lost sight of it in a few curves later on it would catch on me. There was no other cars in this road, nothing. There was no exit to this road, no intersections, no branching roads, just fields, black asphalt and a black bus following me. The fields started getting drier and drier, the once quaint cottages where nothing but burnt ruins, the road got twistier, less maintained, steeper, and the bus was always there, following me.
I don't really know how the dream ended because it got cut short by my mother yelling me about some shit, but I wanted to ask, have you ever had dreams/nightmares about cars?
>>17863085
>Have you ever had dreams/nightmares about cars?
No but I've had a nightmare about Thomas the Tank Engine.
Also, had a bus captcha for this - spooky.
are you sure this was a dream and not a bad dmt trip that ended right when ur mum came back from my place to yell at you?
Brake check that bitch
Well /o/, what would you choose? Friends or Audis?

What's going to happen to all the classic cars of today? I don't mean like the collectors but the classic cars that aren't collectors yet people still love em? Will they stay in consumer circulation or just rust and become spare parts?
>yet people still love em
Depends on the car, but most people don't love them. It takes more than just being old to be classic. There were tons of good American cars made from the mid 60s to 1972 which is why there are still around. Almost every American car made from 73 to the mid 90s is complete garbage so most will be destined for junkyards.
Cool 90s cars are already becoming a collectors market.
You can find shitbox editions of them but well cared for ones are already fetching five figure numbers.
People will start going after early 00s cars once people get fed up with this infotainment bullshit and not being able to see out of windows.
