How bad is it to idle your vehicle for extended periods of times? I know a lot of police cruisers literally spend more than half their engine hours idling but I'm just wondering if I could idle my engine for 8+ hours in the cold winter nights without damage if done every 2 weeks or so.

Youneed to rev it every 15-20 minutes to 4x over idle to blow out accumulation.
Can't have excessive accumulation.

Friendly reminder that GM has NEVER made a naturally aspirated production engine more powerful than Ford's 5.2l Voodoo, not even the 7.0l LS7 (which drops valves like mad btw).

Is the very worst financial decision you can ever make in your life. Even if you have an 820 credit rating and get 0.9 APR, you're still taking a massive ass fucking. Nobody reading this has an 820 credit rating, either.
Recent statistics show that one-third of car buyers sign up for a six-year loan at an average interest rate of 9.6%. Among these buyers, the average price of the car is just over $26,000. This means that one-third of the cars you see on the road are dragging a $475 payment behind them.
The car dealer won’t tell you that your awesome new car loses about 25% of its value the instant you drive it off the lot. After four years, your car has lost about 70% of its value.
What does that mean? After six years, you’ve paid almost $33,000 for a $26,000 car, which is now worth maybe $6,000. Not a good deal.
Here’s a new plan. What if you bought a cheap $2,000 car just to get around for 10 months? Then you take that $475—the average car payment—save it every month, and pay for a new car (with cash!), instead of giving it to the bank.
After 10 months of doing that, you’ll have $4,750 to use for that new ride. Add that to the $1,500–2,000 you can get for your old beater, and you have well over $6,000. That’s a major upgrade in car in just 10 months.
But the fun doesn’t end there. If you keep consistently putting the same amount of money away, 10 months later you would have another $4,750 to put toward a car. You could probably sell that $6,000 vehicle for about the same price you paid 10 months before—meaning you now have $11,000 to pay for a car, just 20 months after this whole process started. And you never paid the bank a dime.

Ever pick someone up who doesn't know what car you have, so you have to tell them on the phone
>yeah, I'm outside now look for a blue civic
What description could you give of any car that would provoke the biggest "wtf" reaction? Like
>yeah you just walked past me, I'm in the Cascade Indigo TVR Cerbera

People would notice a TVR, because nobody knows WTF they are and are very unusual looking sports cars.
Had you said something like, "I'm in a Proton Saga", that's when you would get the dumb look. A Proton is just a generic looking piece of shit that even though exceedingly rare, it's absolutely unremarkable in any way.

What's the best professional looking car?
A car that you could drive and still be taken seriously but is still fun to drive.
I'm thinking either a charger or a Chrysler 300. They both look powerful and the highest engine trims have a hemi v8.

Neither of those.
In fact nothing US domestic. It's going to be upper level BMW, Audi, Mercedes (new only) and Lexus.
>>
>>16822154
I'd go ahead and scratch Lexus off that list and replace it with Aston Martin.

>>16822154
What specific models? Also I'd probably only be able to get something pre 2007, And less than 20k

I'm planning on getting a truck real soon its a 2000 ford f350 7.3L 320,000mile
Supposedly a few glow plugs or computer and a few injectors may be out.He said the clutch messes up but because "air pockets" Its missing the bed and I'm wondering if its worth it for 1500$.. he'd say he he'd put flatbed on for another 500.
He described it as
" i can't get the clutch wright you drive it just got to crank it in gear '
Should i buy it? Pic related
What would i replace, how an what upgraddes should i get when if I do buy it..
I'm counting on yall! please help

Say $1000 with the flatbed

>paying more than $1000 for a car that has more than 200,000 miles
>>
>>16822094
Personally I'd pass. Nothing here that can't be fixed but does need sorting out by somebody with experience or it's just going to be a huge exercise in frustration.
Also, while glow plugs are cheap and easy have you priced injectors? You might want to do that first.
How did Nissan manage to craft the best production car ever made on a budget of 5 empty vodka bottles and 3 used tracksuits?

With the snow coming, let's discuss the times you had to drive in snow in a vehicle that didn't work well in snow.

300zx Turbo w/ wet slicks
Not terrible. Spun tires in snow, had no problem with ice, turning and stopping wasn't fucked, only acceleration. Did 5 over the whole time.
>snow tires
Kek, never.
>chains
Illegal here
>abandon car
I'm not getting spooked that easily
>spin out
Drifting is second instinct to me, and it can and WILL save your ass if you learn it. Even if I don't like to drift my cars, it has saved my ass in bad conditions a few times.
