How much does /o/ think it would cost to fix this?
To clarify, it's. 2016 Yukon XL

Shit, I mean 2017

Dude... there is still half of 2016 left.
So 2003~2007 7 series are now around 9-10k to buy and I was wondering whether I should buy one or another luxury car around the same year. As far as these cars go, I know that maintenance repairs are going to be a nightmare (same for s-classes and upper end audis im sure) and just basic upkeep will also be expensive as well. My job requires that I drive a lot, and with a budget of around 10k just for the initial cost (I make about 45k) would it be silly to get one of these? As far as comfort, what other options could I look at for the price?
Get a Lexus
2008 Acura TL Type-S
Horrible idea. Tires alone will cost you 800 a set, and you will need a new set every year.
IMO get something japanese as you will be driving it a lot. The 7 series would be ok if you were just going around town.
Dear /o/, got a question for you all.
I have two identical tires made in 2012 in the front which is fine. However, I have one tire made in 2013 and one made in 2011 in the back.
I kinda want to replace the 2011 tire but dont know how to handle the rotation situation. The threads on all of them are fine.
Should I bite the bullet and replace two at a time?
>>15558368
It's called tread not thread.
Also if all tires are wearing evenly then rotate them normally. The only time you should worry is if the 2011 one is showing weather cracking or anything like that. If the tires are in good condition and aren't fucked you have nothing to worry about m80
>>15558392
What the fuck does rotate a tire even mean
>>15558368
Do nothing. How do they look? Dryrotting? Close to being worn out? If they look fine then chances are they'll all last until it's time to do all 4.
where does the appeal of going fast come from /o/?

Total car retard here, just a quick question
What is the outlined (pic related) part called? The long "tube" going through the LSD?
Thanks /o/
It's called a centripetal rotary jack.
It's not a single tube. It's the drive shafts.
>>15558137
Cheers
Question im asking is because im looking at getting rust protection underneath my car, and everything looks fine except for that part ..(I thought it was a single long tube) is rust on drive shafts normal? Doesn't seem like theres holes or anything just seems weird that everything but that part looks fine
So there's an abandoned 1998 K3500 at the medium duty truck shop at my job. It was a highway hauler for an exotic animal transportation company, but the 6.5 diesel apparently has a harmonic balancer problem that eats the crank when it goes. So it's in perfect condition other than the grenaded engine, looks much like pic related. No rust, all the bushings are in good shape, and the interior is immaculate. Only downside is it's been sitting for like 5 years.
I can probably talk the owner into selling it to me for $1500-2k. I'm thinking of dropping a brand new 6.5 into it and using it. Any downsides?
THE 6.5 IS THE DOWN SIDE. UPGRADE TO A DURAMAX LBZ OR LB7.

My 7th gen civic was stolen. At police station, gave all information. What do I do now? I had the special insurance for a dollar a day essentially.
I'm pretty much screwed, no chance at reimbursement from the insurance huh? Pretty much zero chance at car turning up... I know it's been chopped up. What does /o/ recommend?
>should of bought the manual
>>15557964
why no gps tracker?
why no remote kill?
why no alarm system?
why no manual?
why no window bars?
why no steering wheel lock?
why no boots?
>>15557964
What do you mean special insurance? Did you just have liability on it or did you have comprehensive? If you just had liability only, the only thing you can do is write it off as an expensive learning lesson and start saving/looking for a new car. It's always better to carry a little more insurance than you need instead of too little. As too little insurance will always leave you in a worst spot when the unexpected happens.
What's the cheapest fastest car I can buy, with most parts available for TYUNING.
???
1. Buy a sturdy ol' RWD diesel.
2. No turbo is too big, no lag is too long.
3. ????
4. Profit.
>>15557919
rwd I agree on, though diesel :S sound is whacky...
BMW E36 325 or 328
best price/performance if youre in yurop
So I bought a saab! It has 207000 miles on it, and I was wondering if I should fill it with premium gasoline, even though it had been filled with regular and only premium on every third fill.. And if I should use full synthetic oil. What if the person before me who owned it didn't use full synthetic and I start using full synthetic? Give me tips on how I can make this car run good and fast for as long as possible. It's a 1994 Saab 9000 Aero 5 speed 2.3 t
