Anyone tried using capacitors as a battery?
Pic related claims to have no issue with it and even left the car sitting for a few days and was still able to start the car.
Im going to try it on my motorcycle. Its kick start only so it wont matter if it drains, and the ignition is seperate from the stator.
In theory it should work, and if it doesnt, it only cost me a couple bucks.

Seems like a good way to kill your alternator fast.
>>17015301
Why?
Guess i should have known.
Anything that takes a small amount of brain power will be archived quickly.

But /O/ is full of bus riders and bench racers
So no not BTFO pea brain
What's it gonna tow? It's own batteries?
>>17014964
I guess that it will be filled with have enough batteries to reach the point of diminishing returns and elon will tell you that if you need more range just use a train that use batteries that his company made.

Can you run [ JM1NA353XS0618873 ] , please?
Thanks.
how shit is my car
Pretty shit. Enjoy your fuel spiders and Dexcool compromised gaskets, glass 4l60 trans, and Fisher-Price grade interior plastics.
>>17014060
Deep down you know how bad it is, anon.
>>17014060
Pretty shit

Good thing mazda saw fit to provide me with a wallet key from the factory.

Just wait for Tyrone
Lincoln has a new program where Lincoln owners can order a chaffeur through their phones.
The chaffeur can also run errands such as getting groceries, gas and picking up your kids
Thoughts?
I think you should start asking Lincoln for an hourly wage for all this shilling.
>>17013775
>chauffeur
shit driver who crashes you
>order groceries
poisoned
>pick up your kids
kidnapped, raped, and ransomed
>>17013835
The people are hired by Lincoln so they aren't contractors and are backround checked
I imagine something will happen
hey guys, how do I replace my alternator belt? I am looking at it and there is no way to remove the belt itself unless I also take off the PS/AC belt. Kind of a pain in the ass. Is this true?
>>17013675
Um well we need to know what type of fucking car you have you dingbat. They are all different.
>>17013675
What kind of pile of shit is it? Bmw?
>>17013695

What the fuck is this thing and why have I never heard of it until today
Imagine how much else you haven't heard of if you haven't even heard of SSR? Even Forza teaches better car knowledge nowadays.
>>17013603
It looks like a supersized Hotwheels, what's there to find out about?
>>17013603
Its a not well thought out GM abomination . Built for baby boomers by a staff of marketing executives who thought they knew what you want.
Its a great midlife crisis alternative to one of those three wheeled motorcycle faggot things.

You could steal a lot of sales from people interested in buying BRZ/GT86/Miata/Fiata's, just by advertising a good deal more power and torque. The new Mustang and Camaro both have decent chassis and handling, but are designed with being a V8 muscle car in mind and are pretty huge as a result. I'm sure they could make something smaller with little problem.
The Camaro V6 1LE is pretty close. Great sounding and racey V6 with 335HP, outstanding handling, just too much size and not enough window.
>>17013366
Mitsubishi should come back with Eclipse to compete with FRZ
>>17013373
They are coming back with the Eclipse. Good luck competing in a fucking crossover though lmao
Because amerifats don't know what lightweight it or how it works
Why are all cars released in the last 10 years ugly as fuck?
they all have those flat wheel arches
It's a Jewish conspiracy to make you take the bus. Happy now?
>trfw i have to buy a truck because all cars are ugly and jeeps are way overpriced
>500hp
>no stability control
>no traction control
>straight road for next 5 miles
at what speed would you start shitting yourself
Depends on the car. Wouldn't feel confident taking anything non-German beyond 130 mph. German performance cars are made for it.
that one?
probably about 120 when the shitty engineering and aerodynamics cause the cars nose to come off the ground and has the car floating everywhere
in a proper car I wouldnt shit my pants unless the road was iffy
>>17012933
Whenever things started to get dodgy. It's not going to have any vibration issues being an extremely well built hot rod, but it depends on the road conditions.
>CVT
>with paddle shifters
Is Honda retarded?
>>17012880
whats wrong with paddle shift? I use it when I feel slow
>>17012880
No, the people who buy modern Honda are and Honda knows this.
>>17012880
Fake shift noise, fake engine noise. These newer shitboxes are junk. An appliance car, nothing more.

>google maps gives me an alternate route that would save me 10 minutes, fuck it is a long ass drive and with those 10 extra minutes id be pounding pussy before i was supposed to arrive on my current route

pt. 2
>as i get out i notice the tahoe is idling, i walk up to the door not knowing what expect, and its empty, the heat is blaring and the radio is playing, windshield wipers clearing snow off.i use my phone as a flashlight and look around on the ground for footprints in the snow and there are some on either side of the door, they meet up at the back of suv and go down rhe ditch and out into the barren farm fields
>nope senses tingling
>walk back to my car and pop my trunk and retrieve my vz-58 rifle( i had just turned 21 and hadnt purchased a handgun yet)and tossed it onto the passenger seat with the stock folded
>look around for a bit and and get into my car and light a cigarette and decide to call the cops, they inform me that a deputy will be arriving in 10-15 minutes and i should stay and leave a statment, i was curious now as to what was going on.
>light up another smoke, and the wind is picking up, i look around for a light from a farmhouse or any sign of life nearby and theres nothing just lifeless fields with snow and the carcasses of last years crop.
>In between the wind howling i swear i hear crunching of snow in the distance, look around for headlights from a copcar or another concerned citizen and theres nothing still pitch black besides my lights
>swear i hear them again, i had just got back from deployment 9 months earlier, so i wanted to play the role of the badass and get out of my car with my rifle and confront whoever was out here and find out what was going on, but my heart is beating out of my chest and i rip it off the shoulder and ring every gear until i hit 70, i slow down once i get a mile or so away and call the cops, and let them know there may be people out there.
>They basically just ask for my name, adress and phone number and a description of the vehicle and and other informatiom i saw at the scene.
>never got anything back and never saw anything in the news about it.
