I go walk around the college campus when I'm bored and want some exercise and check out the cars. Most are shitboxes. A bunch of girls driving expensive stuff. Staff members driving expensive luxury cars.
Most interesting one was a nice, white GT86. Had some Japanese on the side of one window too.
What cars catch your eye in the parking lot of your work/school?
All the Asian kids have Porsche Macans, and this one residence parking lot has
> BMW M4
> New Audi Q7
> like 4 New Audi S4
> 2 BMW X6M
> Ford Taurus SHO
> bunch of C Class 400/AMG 63
> Cadillac Escalade
> BMW 535i M Package
> BMW 550i
> Mustang GT350
> New Audi A6
> 2 BMW 435i, one coupe, one gran coupe
One Arab guy has an Audi R8, but it's the older one
A few white kids have some BMW 435i's too, and a bunch of white guys have Mustangs
me with my Toyota, but still better than the other kids cars

There's a old bald guy who drives a scion TC with white stripes. It's the only other stick in the lot. It's a nice car but seeing such an old guy driving it is bizzare.
>>16248898
>most interesting was a GT86
I mean, I love the car, but that can't possibly be the most interesting car there can it?
Everyone at uni is poor and either rides the bus or drives a shit car. One of the professors has a masarati coupe of some sort
A friend I know that goes to a university in a different state mentioned that all the rich asian kids had stuff like masaratis, ferarris, lambos, porches, and GTR sports cars. They would all bring them to the parking lot and flaunt their cars every friday or saturday

Pic is related. I have a 2wd Ram 1500. The front wheel bearing assembly, by design, has a ~1in hole in the center. Normally this is covered up by the center cap on the wheel.
I bought a winter tire combo off of tire rack. Firestone, studs, steelies. Did it during the summer and got them WAY cheap + an additional promotion. Going to put them on in January as that is when my side of the mountain tends to get rocked by snow.
My stock center caps look terrible on the cheap steel wheels. Would anything bad result if I didn't put them on and just rocked a through hole in the center of my front wheels?
More pic related
Never heard of this company before...looks like they sell cheap commie shit but it illustrates the hole
shouldn't be an issue.

Who here drives RWD in the winter?
I've been doing it for >15y now and people still are telling me I'm going to get stuck or kill myself.
I'm a student who's about to start college in German and i'd be there for around 5 years. thinking about buying pic related, how much should i expect the overall cost will be? with insurance accounted for.
should i just hold off with the thought and stick with public tranportation? What do /o/?

Is the purpose of that thing to provoke another Self-driving car accident because the sensors don't recognize it as a car.
That is... one of the most vomit inducing things I've ever seen?
Why? Why would anyone build this?
Can anyone imagine the Rolls of the past deciding to mimic a bloody Range Rover?
How come people who own lowriders outside of America are always people that try really hard to be a black or mexican guy from california?
Seeing groups like Loyalty IV life car club all wearing compton hats when they are mostly pacific islanders, filipinos and lebos from Sydney is weird...
Lowrider owners in europe do it too.
This is a typical lowrider owner in Australia

These are the blacks and mexicans of our world.

becouse every kind of car (usa, jap shit, european and german) have some sub culture behind them and an image. So why are ricers driving around with waifus on their passenger seat and are destroying cars with stupid stickers and mods
Ours is a dominant culture, and if you don't stop it you're going to have burger stands on every corner.
I'll be moving to the Pacific southwest in a few months.
I'm planning on buying a Baja Bug for everyday use and maybe some offroad action.
How much do they sell for?
Are they reliable?
Does it make sense to get one?
Will people think i am a hobo if i pull into a big town with one of these?
>>16248631
>a lot
>not really
>if you want one
>they'll probably assume you're a poor person
I know a guy who DDs one here in Italy
The biggest problem is getting stopped at least once every 2 days
>>16248631
If only you could look at craigslist where you're moving
No
No
No they'll think you're a dumb punk kid who thought it would be a good idea to dd a Baja bug
Why do the bogans at summernats hate british roadsters and any car that doesn't have a v8 big turbo turbo and at least 350hp?

He designed it becuase he needed a faster way of cleaning pussy juice off his hands so he wouldn't fuck up his drawings after his breaks from work.

So the people who claim suzuki is good.
Gotcha
hello /o/reo
Took my 01 Camry with a stock Toyota windshield in to get a windshield change today
Got there at 8 am as soon as they opened it was an appointment. Well he calls at 1 pm says hey we gotta talk. So turns out it's rusted.. He asked what I want to do without giving me a choice he threw my old shield out and told me I gotta go to a body shop... And hes no longer going to warranty anything.. Great
He calls me at 4:58 says my car is done and I can get it tomorrow this is a place with several 5 star reviews no bad ones. So what should I do tomorrow. This is the first time I went to this glass shop!
By the way I'm a paper courier so glad I have a second car. /endrant
what the fuck do you want from me
>>16248041
You can always look at your state attorney general's section on car warranty claims and lemon cars. Usually there is something about car repairs having warranty even if they disclaim. In my state, they can refuse to do the job which would mean there is no warranty. If they choose to do the job, then there is a basic implied warranty. However, if the failure is due to existing defect (they have to prove it not you) then they can avoid the warranty.

>several 5 star reviews no bad ones
Lol Internet reviews. Always do the opposite of what the internet says.
Alright, so here is the story (with no embellishments) as accurate as I can recall it. I'm not giving myself any positive spin because I want the best advice I can get.
I got off work from my second job at Dominos trying to save up money to see my girlfriend in Colorado over the holidays. I went and bought a black and mild from circle K and went down to a boat launch by the river to smoke it. Listened to some classic rock and enjoyed it. During this time a newer (2013ish?) Dodge Ram 3500 dually pulled up. It sat watching me.
Once I got done I went and threw the butt away (because trash is ugly) and got in my car. I did a circle of the parking lot where the truck was parked in the middle and went to the the exit. The truck the followed me.
I started driving on a main drag in my city and was doing the speed limit while staying in my lane. The truck followed me the entire way. I did several turns with the truck still behind me and went to a Walmart parking lot because I was getting nervous.
I pulled into one side of an isle in a well-lit section and sat for a few moments with the truck still there. I the drove behind some cars and pulled in front of the truck and blocked him in so I could get his plates (out of state). I then left with him following me and jumped on the interstate with him still following me. I went to the north end of the city and a few miles later I got pulled over by the cops saying who got a call from the truck saying that "I was driving erratically".
Officer was polite and after I explained my side of the story he took my registration, license, and insurance, for him to check. He said I was doing 10 over at some points but it was understandable given I was being followed. He came back and let me go.
What the fuck, /o/?
there are always some dickheads who have to much freetime and like to fuck others. dont worry and go on
>>16247948
I'm filing a police report if it matters at all. More than anything else I want to thank the officer for being chill.
>>16247928
find somewhere where you can sit (safely) and stare the fucker down. Like a crash rail right in front of him. If he doesn't fuck off take a photo of his car and drive off. Still following? Call the police if he is.
what I would have done at least
