who said that?

not sure who said it, what context it was in, or even what fucking car it is (thanks for explaining op) but probably something like the car looks like a sports car but really isnt. like riced civics, hondas, etc. they might look and sound sporty, but theyre just piles of shit

Just finished putting this video together, Yes I know it's long no need to watch it all but let me know what you think of it! Much appreciated to any supportive reply's!!

What are the odd this would work/not work? Would you trade your German ride for a Caddy? Would you check out the Camaro/Corvette? Would you consider a Silverado over an Alaskan/Amarok?

The only thing I've owned which was GM-branded was a widowmaker jack that failed to lift the car.
GM as a brand has no power here. They can't even sell american cars here, and have to rebadge Daewoos.
>>
>>15898216
>have to rebadge deawoos
that was Chevrolet and when these faggots started to sell well, they left. I still don't get it.
They sell Opel/Vauxhalls since the second world war and it works, so why not the others? Also the market is slowly opening to pick-up trucks, there's a move to do.

no, it'll take a long time before europe considers any chevy or caddy, they have zero prestige over there

So I let my insurance lapse a couple of months due to unexpected life expenses and needed the extra $300 a month in my pocket. Just my luck that an animal jumped out in front of me and I got in a car wreck with no one else involved and no one hurt, I drove the car home just fine but damage is extensive.

My question is if I buy insurance now with a new company (because my old one obviously knows how long I haven't been insured) can they see the months that I had no insurance on some record? How long should I wait before making a claim, obviously not the same day but would 1, 2 or 3 weeks be long enough? People do actually buy new cars and crash them right off the lot after insuring them so it's not completely unbelievable I could get in a wreck so soon after getting coverage, right? I have NEVER made a claim before on any insurance or been in any wreck before so maybe this will help me and be less suspicious?

Thank you for any help I really put myself in a fucked position where the car might have $5000-10000 worth of damage and while that's not close to the %80 rule of thumb to total the car it's not by any means pennies so I doubt it will go very easy.

depends on the state maybe but here in nevada the DMV keeps record of when you're insured and I'm sure they've got no issue giving that information to insurance companies
>>
This is insurance fraud, a crime.

If you insurance was $300 a month you're probably a basketball American as that's 4x what it should cost to carry liability above minimum limits with comp and collision.
>>
Insurance agent here

There are people whose full time jobs are investigating suspected fraud and they tend to be quite good at what they do. Think carefully because it could land you in jail.

ITT: We talk about the worst type of fanboys. Be it fanboys of a specific manufacturer, a specific car, or a specific type of car, we vent our pent-up rage here. Let it all out, /ol/.

In my opinion, the worst type of fanboy is the Teslafag.

>"m-muh 0-60"
EVs get 100% of their torque/power all at once, so they of course of great acceleration. But EVs are quick, not fast. In other words, they have great acceleration, but "meh" top speeds.

>"Look at this video of a Tesla beating a Ferrari lol ICE-cars BTFO!!!!"
Notice that in all of these "Tesla beats (x)" videos, it's always a 1/4 mile drag race. The Tesla, being an EV, has the advantage (as I explained before). Drag races are more about acceleration than top speed, so the Tesla almost always comes out on top. And if there is a video of a Tesla LOSING to an ICE car, it's "well it's still pretty good for a family car" (which is still completely redundant as, being an EV, it still has an advantage regardless of class).

>"Elon Musk is the best person in the world!"
Musk is a good guy, he's a goddamn genius, and he certainly makes some good cars. But God damn. These people treat him like the 2nd coming of Christ. And ever since that whole thing with Jeremy Clarkson VS Elon Musk over his Roadster, he's always come off as a bit whiney. But regardless, these guys suck Elon's dick for their daily dose of protein.

>"EVs are the FUUUTTTUREE!!!"
Say anything positive about an ICE car, or say anything negative about EVs, and you get this hyper-elitist motherfucker all over your shit. Once I said that I prefered a BMW over a Model S and I got (from my memory) "How's it feel living in the past, Grandpa? Still enjoying your horse and carriage? Tesla is the future of cars. I seriously don't understand why people still buy ICE cars.". But the point is, we don't know. We don't know shit about the future. Most predictions about future tech fail. EVs aren't a new concept, either. Time will tell.

So /o/, what grinds your gears?

Fanboys of any kind. How could you remain loyal to a company much less defend it when it fucks up?? Im looking at you ifags

while EV's might not be the future, gas/diesel engines certainly arent it either as much as i'd like.
not unless anyone comes up with a cheap alternative fuel to be used in those....
1.65€/L is too much and it'll only get worse.

So it seems that AM General was chosen by the USPS to design the next mail truck. The USPS has already set out rudimentary guidelines for what they want, and AM General's gonna make a few prototypes for them to look over.

So we'll probably see the iconic Grumman LLV phased out within the next decade or so.

The Grumman LLV has been in service since 1987, when it replaced the Jeep DJ, which was a modified variant of the Willys. The LLV uses an Iron Duke engine, though supposedly the USPS is looking for fuel efficiency and potentially zero emission options for their next vehicle.

So let's talk about mail trucks. What does your country's mail truck look like?

Maybe the new trucks can have a small battery bank, with a electric motor driving the wheels and a gas motor to generate electricity. I think that would be the most efficient setup for the stop and go driving they do.
