What's the ultimate form of commuting?

Walk
Bicycle
Motorcycle/scooter
Car
Public transport

Motorcycle. Fast enough to not disturb traffic, small enough to avoid congestion.

>>15934778
a really well run light rail system
its not like you were going anywhere special
>>
>>15934778
There is no ultimate in commuting. All the ways of transport are just another method of sheep herding.

Living to work is miserable. When you're working to live, work is your life and your home. Transport is only for travel and business.

Hello guys.

In a few days I'll be selling my shitbox.

I'm going to buy my friend's 1999 996 Carrera 4 Porsche (3.4 330hp).

So, tell me why I SHOULD and SHOULDN'T buy it.

Put a nice picture of a tuned 996 while you comment.

Thanks G's.

Why do so many cars (M2, Focus RS, Golf GTI Clubsport) come with gay 'overboost' settings that enable more power for a few seconds? Why isn't it just all go all the time?

>>15934583
desu 30 seconds is enough

>>15934592
Why even 30 seconds? If I buy a car with a set amount of power it should have it without me having to press a stupid button to tell it to be as fast as it should be.

Alright, so, we all know Toyota pickups are the literal war chariot of the third world. Used so much as mobile infantry carriers a war was named after them.

But what about Jeep? It actually started as vehicles if war. Do poor impoverished third world countries use Jeep to ferry their troops to battle?

Leak occurs in garage.
Your house catches on fire.
Insurance refuses to pay because arson is suspected.
Fire inspectors verify accelerant was utilized to start the fire.
Meanwhile, your neighbor's insurance company sues you for replacement cost for their home that was damaged due your house's fire also partially burning their house.

Your insurance company uses the modified law to delay judgement of payout amount until arson case resolution.

Neighbor's suit concludes. You owe approx $250,000K damages and $18,000 alternate living expenses and per diem food & transportation compensations.
Your wages are now garnished 50% to pay towards the amount you owe plus penalty interest.
You become homeless because at 50% garnish, you don't have enough to pay for an apartment.

There are lots of people who make bad decisions. They lose a court case and become homeless. Court judgements have ruined the lives of many people and in many cases permanently so.

So here's a random question; how long is gas good? I just bought a car that's been sitting about a year. We opened up the tank and there's still a good amount of gas but I thought it smelled a little off.

So I'm following the forever stickied guide to buying a car and I just LOVE the Jeep Cherokee 4.0s but I can't find a good one around here because they're all leaking oil or tranny fluid, or have so much rust that I'm surprised the engine doesnt just drop out the bottom of the car. Any suggestions on alternatives? I don't like the blazer and 4Runners are hell expensive here in NYC for Toyota Reliability reputation... Do I start leaving notes on good jeeps windshields?

Jeeps are shit m8. 4 runners shouldnt be that expensive.
If you cant afford to fix an older vehicle then you dont need a heep

>>15934353
Keep looking my dude, nothing will beat the god like 4.0 and they all leak a little oil, the valve cover likes to leak
>>
>>15934400
So it lasts a long time with a small leak and adding oil?

What do I do /o/, I'm 23 and the cartilage in my left knee is practically nonexistent (and wearing fast). Giving me constant pain and whatnot.

Do I just deal and stay manual to heaven?

Or do I become an auto pleb?

Anyone else in the same boat?

We can't really tell you, you just have to decide if it's worth it. If you really love driving a manual to the point that it outweighs the pain, then keep it up. But most people won't judge you for driving an auto because you have an injury

Cant you Drive a semi automatic? Shifting with paddles etc.

Buy a nice dct and save what's left of your knee.

What are your honest thoughts on this car?

I know it's a pain in the ass to service this German barge and I also know there are only a handful of mechanics that do Phaeton in the Western Hemisphere.

It's only liked by a very few number of people.

It has so many unique features of it's own.

It's the ultimate stealth wealth car because it looks like a Passat.

There are a few on the eBay for less than 10k which has 100k miles. I've been watching a lot of reviews on this car and I think I'm having an affinity towards this car. I've never had a feeling like this. Should I buy it knowing all the pits I'll be falling into?

Just buy the cleanest one you can find with good service records. Wear items aren't too expensive but if any non-wear items break you're gonna get raped. You can save money by doing some things yourself.
