Looks cool though, design is simple and solid, will age good I think. I feel like less sporty rims would benefit the look.

this morning when i went down to my work truck only to find that someone stole my wallet and attempted to steal the truck itself

it makes me really sad when people steal my shit
it costs me nothing to fix but had they stolen that, i could have potentially lost my job

Why are these vehicles so indestructible?
>my grandmother had one that she let her stoner daughter drive everywhere and it survived until she just blew the engine because she drove it up and down pot-holed dirt roads all day every day for several months straight without maintaining it when it already had over 200k miles on it
It's impressive it lasted even two weeks with the treatment she gave it. My grandparents were then dumb enough to lend her their pickup truck and this one only lasted two weeks because she put 7,000 miles on it in those TWO WEEKS and it couldn't handle the dirt roads like the Astro before it
>my uncle has one with 400,000 miles on it
Why can't Chevy make any other reliable vehicles? For crying out loud, this thing even beats Hondas and Toyotas in reliability. So why is every other vehicle made by GM pure garbage?

Statistical anomaly. They had a pretty abysmal reliability record and are one of the shittiest cars I've ever had the displeasure of being in.

hmm. I'm actually looking it up now to see if the two I had experience with were as you said, but so far it seems to be that the general consensus favors me.
You may have just had bad luck as opposed to my family's good luck.

My parents had two. A 93 and a 04. The 93 is still kicking around in georgia even after an accident. Had 200k+ miles on the body but a rebuilt engine because a tech ran it without oil. 04 is probably still around but we had to do 5k worth of repairs in the last year.

>tfw classic japanese cars are going into extinction since many of them are riced or modified into shitty drift machines (especially hurts when done to GT-Rs butchering their AWD)
>tfw same applies to old BMWs that get fucked up by slav gangstas
why is this allowed? why people cant enjoy cars for what they are and destroy them with shitty modifications, especially driftbois who completely overhaul the car basically leaving only the body unchanged

The weird thing about skyline awd is that it is so heavily rwd until the wheels slip. Only drifters should ever be bothered by this.

What's weird about it? Less power is lost when it doesn't have to get transferred to all the wheels all the time

I'm currently torn between the FRS (2013-2014) and Genesis Coupe 2.0T (2013-2014). I've test driven both cars on the streets and highway, this would be my only car and daily driver.

I love everything about the FRS: the size, handling, exterior, how low it sits, and affordability. The only big con is the infamous lack of power (for passing on highways in LA) and somewhat cheap interior/sound isolation. The lack of power is even worse with the AT which is required due to family possibly having to drive the car from time to time in case of emergencies. The Jackson supercharger is something I'm thinking about but I'm wary about the reliability and I'd have it professionally installed since I'm not confident enough to do such an installation nor am I handy with working on my own car except for basic maintenance. This would of course increase the total cost of the car which brings me to the next car option.

What I like in the Genesis Coupe is pretty much the opposite of the FRS: power and somewhat better interior and sound isolation. The size, looks, handling, exterior is fair in my opinion. From all the rampant posts about QC issues with the Genesis Coupe makes me wary about the affordability. I've even had to tell the dealership to let me sit in the car while they spray down the car with a water hose so I can be sure there's no leakage from the windows which seemed to be a common problem.

As previously mentioned, this would be my only car and my daily driver so making this decision would need to be well thought out and definitive. Any input would greatly appreciated.

Both are for carbabies, but go for the Korean trash so you aren't slower than the average minivan.

Lol one time I saw a dude do a 90 degree burnout through a left hand turn into traffic during rush hour in a tbird. If it was a Mustang there would have been a huge accident so I was actually impressed. But in the end the car is ultimately boring and it says more about the driver than the car.

My father is looking to lease a mid range pick up and is quite decided on a 2017 Manual or automatic Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport. He asked me my opinion but since I don't know much about pick-ups, I'm asking you guys.

He will mainly use it for delivery, some construction work, very light off road and for the outdoors (camping,kayak...). He is looking for something reliable, durable and that can handle canadian winters. He's not really interested in a full size pick-up.

Thoughts?

If he really wanted to do those things he'd go buy a ranger on craigslist for a few grand.

>>15810635
For off-roading I prefer auto.

Love manuals in almost every other situation, but for I really enjoy an automatic in the dirt.
>>
>>15810656
He has lived half of his life in poverty and can now afford nice things. But I get your reasoning. Is the Tacoma the best mid-range truck or is there something better?

Moving to rural Ireland soon; can anyone familiar with yurocars recommend some fun, cheap stuff? I just want to have a goofy lightweight car.

Thoughts on the Suzuki Jimny, maybe? Looks hilarious.

Jimny is pretty much THE ranger car in Yurop. They love these little shits and hence they're kinda overpriced for what they are but apparently they're really capable cars. You probably can't go wrong with them.

Another cheap one would be the Dacia Duster oh and Lada Niva

Also, I think for a car that is soon 20 years on the market (nearly no changes at all) it still looks really fresh for an offroader.

*cyclist hate thread?

Do you think the world would be a better place without the degenerate group called bikers? Motorcyclists and bicyclists. They have no self awareness and believe they universally have the right of way.

Watching material: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcSlNIurFaA

Discuss your dealings with bikers.
