Why do Tesla-fags and eco-wanks get all hot and bothered by the idea of the electric car?
Why are we not talking more about hydrogen fuel cell cars? They're superior to electric cars in almost every way.
They're shills.
>>17874860
Because this year's Tesla buyer was a believer in the Prius before it and all the eco feel good save the planet marketing the brochure had, regardless of actual environmental impact. These cars make the buyer FEEL good and FEEL like they're making a difference and FEEL like their saving money, regardless of hard facts.

They're shills, or brainlet appleslaves.

A fitting end to the saga where a dumbass left a car on the beach with a hurricane coming then spends the next two weeks begging for pitty and volunteers to dig up his car for him. Now he even wants others to buy him a new car.

Lol, I remember that thread where some dipshit wanted us to report Chad's truck running over some virgin's POS Honda.
>>17874666
people were trying to say it was in pretty much pristine condition after being under water at the beach for 3 days lol
At first when I first heard the story I felt a sorry for the owner, but the more and more that came out the more I said fuck that dude he deserved it.
>has transmission issues at the beach (wow, that really sucks)
>can't afford tow home (again that really sucks)
>doesn't know anyone or doesn't flag anyone to help get off said beach (.....uh ok, that's a little odd but whatever)
> leaves the vehicle there for a week while he knows a hurricane is coming(.....WHAT!!! Use your brain that car will be fucked if you don't move it)
> goes back after the storm finds it burred in sand and thinks it's saveable but doesn't do anything to get it out (dude are you retarded)
> goes back and finds it crushed and complains about it (NEVER MIND YOU LET IT GET HIT BY A FUCKING HURRICANE)
>fine out its still in the person's name he bought the car from and it doesn't have any insurance on it. (You know what dude, fuck you. You didn't need a car at all. The brotruck did the world a favor making sure you wouldn't be on the road with it. I only wish you had been in the car when he ran it over because your a grade A douche bag)

What is best Ford?
>>17874559
There is no """best""" Ford. They're all junk. Junk from the start and junk in modern times.
I hope both Ford and Lincoln gets axed for making such garbage.
Actual right answer
WORST ENGINEERED CARS and reasons why ?
PT Cruiser
Any fucking Ford, worst V8s, worst V6 and I6s...
Terrible driveshafts on their sport cars, and worst of all, their owners.
If there's any auto manufacture that needs to be axed, it's fucking Ford and their bland redundant """"""""""luxury"""""""""" division, Lincoln.
>>17874549
Lincoln LS V8.
They ruined a simple idea with a shit engine.
Looking to buy a civic as my first car, recommended upgrade path?

let's say you're going 75 down the interstate (70) when a cop comes up and passes you going 85. no lights, no hurry, just cruising down the interstate patrolling. you wait for him to gain some distance and you proceed to follow him matching his speed but at a fair following distance (say 4-5 car lengths). there are no other cars but you and him. after a few miles of both of you going 85 in a 70, he flips on the disco lights and waits for you to pass then pulls you over and then charges you with 15 over. what are your legal options at this point? do you have a leg to stand on for fighting the ticket? also assume you have a dash cam with gps speed that showed him passing you at 10 over, and then you going exactly as fast as him.
to reiterate, this is just a hypothetical question.
>>17874515
why would you have an excuse for speeding? because the cop did it?
if it went to court they would simply be looking to prove the following: did you break the law? yes or no?
not about why or why not. the cop might have to answer to his boss, and if you could PROVE he was speeding he may even get a ticket, but it wouldn't cancel out your ticket.
you're best to attack technical elements of a ticket/issue, to weaken the probability of some detail like the exact speed, if his gun was calibrated, or better yet - HOW he determined you were speeding and the speed you were doing, road conditions/traffic/weather, etc.
>>17874528
>and if you could PROVE he was speeding he may even get a ticket,
i should mention that this wouldn't be an issue to discuss during your trial, they would be there to discuss your speeding ticket alone
if you had a video of it, recorded the interaction and it was unflattering, took it high up to the Sgt./Chief, or even brought it to the media - you could possibly shame the department into bending over, but that's a far cry - and you'd literally have permanent enemies on every corner in your town for the rest of your life

How the fuck did Japan get such a big street racing culture during the 90's?
Where were the cops?
Here in land o' the free if you so much as gather some good looking cars in a parking lot and the cops will come and tell you to fuck off
>>17874211
The US companies were all run according to Jewish Tricks. Japs were run by the Samurai.
The Japanese handle things differently than us Clapistanis. They respect each other and know when and when not to step on each others' toes. You get the police, the Yakuza, the Bozos, and even the street racers all in strange harmony.
Also Jap police cars are legislated to a certain maximum speed.
>>17874217
uhuh, and all the japanese cars were forged over raging volcanos by the samurais with glorious nipponium steel
Daily reminder: If you don't like the LC 500, you clearly have shit taste.

why is this poor thing crying
>>17874209
the design would be better if it wasn't cucked by pedestrian safety and CAFE.
C-can I ask you guys for some advice?
Hoping there are some professionals in here who I can talk to in their field...
My company is giving me all the shitty projects and I make a lot of money sitting on my ass
I want harder work and much more advanced which I am capable of but they are giving me shitty projects and they hired me for so much fucking money it is crazy

Anyone ever try one of these mirror systems for RHD cars before? Seems like the ideal solution to all RHD problems.
WTF does this do? Delete the rearview mirror in the middle???
this is first time me seeing this. what the heck is that supposed to be?
>>17874137
nvm. I put my brain to use and figured it out in 2 seconds. quite a great idea, actually.
Do I build a turbo sw20 or LS 240sx?
I have the opportunity to buy a 3sgte (which I'm going to rebuild) for $200 or a ratty S13 hatch shell for $800. The shell is clean title and not beat, but most panels don't match and it's stripped. I can get cheap LS2's around here (less than $800), but the fabric work is going to be thicc because LS swap. I like the idea of an SW20 since I already daily an adub and a SW20 would make a nicer daily, but still be similar in feel. Also I've pulled an engine from a car before, but the engine we put back in bolted up stock, so I don't have much fab work experience. With an sw20 I'd likely be buying a N/A shell and converting it, which is somewhat of a project, but probably not over my head.
/end_ramble
tldr: sw20 turbo or LS 240sx
I don't want this to be a thread about which engine is better. I think the 3sgte and LS2 are both great in their own right. LS2 would probably be cheaper to own in the long run, but I like muh turbo sounds and feel and with either I'm not going to be breaking 350whp since I want this to eventually turn into a daily and I live in a rainy place.
bump
>>17873949
Scrap that, buy another AW11 and put the 3sgte into it. It's a super well documented swap and that engine is capable of 300whp easy, in a 2200lb car.
You'll thank me later.
>>17874085
Or you could just source a 4AGZE and turbo it for even cheaper.
