So i was blasting along in the back dunes of tattooine having a great time when i suddenly realized i was lost.
Stupid RE740 speeder doesnt have a NAV system. My damn droid was full of sand and being uncooprative.
Nothing was going right until a very nice trooper showed up out of no where.
He was very pleasant to speak with, polite, and helped me find my way back to town.
Weird thing was that he asked if i had seen a pair of droids wandering around. I told him to check out Mos Eisley. Earlier in the day i recalled tracks leading that way.
Dont know what he wanted to know for though. Hope no one is in trouble.
Thanks a ton to the empire though!! That nice trooper saved my life!
You guys have any stories about troopers?
>>15472966
Yeah man, my first time out to mannan, some local spice head mistook me for someone he knew and ran at me swinging. A trooper stepped in and stun bolted the fucker right in the gut. He went down hard. Not sure why people say troopers cant hit anything, this guy was pro.
>>15472966
yeah i was cruising the dunes and this little prick in his t-16 was speeding around me and shooting innocent little womprats
a nearby trooper pulled him over
serves him right womprats are an endagered species

Guys i am looking to buy a street bike and i have come across these models.
Aprilia RS 125 '05
Yamaha YZF 125 R '09
Honda CBF 125 '14
I saw some of the CBR types aswel. I am looking for a good reliable street bike to get me going on a 14km every day.
The idea of getting a street bike came to me when i start training for the street bike license 125cc. I was riding a Honda CBR 125 and i realy enjoyed inside of the town and when i was testing speeds.
What are your thoughts? Scratch all that and go for a used car?
pic related its the Honda, please do ignore the watermark.
>>15472763
Just get a HONDA XR650L you fucking POOOSY
>>15472763
You will get over a 125 in about a month.
Why do you want a "sport" bike anyway?
Are you limited to 125cc?
If so, the CBR125 is alright, Grom/msx125 and the WR125 are also breddy gud.
If you're not limited to 125's then there are better beginner bikes that you won't get bored of within a week. Also refer to /dbt/.
Is car air conditioning repair a meme?
Seems like even though there are entire shops dedicated to repairing air conditioning, it still never works quite right once it goes bad the first time - and if you try to DIY, no one really seems to know what the fuck they're talking about, especially on car forums. Threads typically diverge into "uhh yeah just replace everything and hope it works".
If you take it to a shop, they dye the refrigerant, fill it up, and tell you to come back when it stops working again. Then they replace whatevers leaking, and tell add more dye and tell you that, while they fixed the leak, everything else could be leaking as well because path of least resistance, etc.
All of while spending hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for a (((potential temporary fix))).
This begs the question, why are automotive AC systems so shit, and why are shops so shit at "fixing" them?
Haven't had any problems with it yet, except, of course, needing a refill.
>>15472646
Having to refill refrigerant means that you have a leak
Can we stop
calling fucking everything
that we don't like
a meme

qt gf buying new 2016 impreza sport wagon. CVT I can't convince her to get 5speed.
Bad idea? Not bad idea?
She takes the train most days so I'll drive it sometimes for my 45 minute commute.
>CVT
Always a bad idea
I know everyone hates new cars but we can afford it and are suckers so that's not what I want to hear about.
>>15472432
Yeah, I don't think I'll mind though I daily drive an 86 so I'll just take that when I want 'muh drivin feels'
Why is there so much faggotry in car culture?
>>15472240
Because EFI was standardized.
>>15472240
found the butthurt toyocuck
>>15472240
Because most of car enthusiasts have never wrenched.
Saw a car (same as mine) with these unbranded wheels. Want to get them for my car. They are on a 2012 Fiat 500 Pop, so I think they are 15 in. x 6 in.
Anyone know what brand and model they are?
>>15472165

That's FWD drivers for you. Civic are the worse offenders though.

Why the fuck would you lease a car when the monthly payments seem to be the same price as if you just financed the car? You're not saving any money and just flushing it down the toilet.
>>15471560
if you only want it for a short term
>>15471560
Why the fuck would someone get a new smartphone every year when my Galaxy s3 from 2012 works good as shit? Some people are weird and want to always have the newest shit.
Soon you'll see the poor people defending this with the same "you CAN spend less if you're a renter", same deal for renting vs owning a house. Always "if 999 market variables come together then you could have saved money by renting!" And the last time those variables were like that was 1975

Why are there so many salvage title mazda 3's?
There are absolutely tons of 2010+ mazda 3's going for cheap though i don't want to trust them.
Is it because they're cheaper and easier to write off as totaled? Even relative to civics and corollas?
Also hatchback or sedan?
One more thing.
Are they easy to work on?
>>15470898
>Why are there so many salvage title mazda 3's?
Driverbase whose stupidity is only matched by that of Civic drivers.
>Also hatchback or sedan?
Sedan.(I could swear the MS3 only comes in hatchback but that's my choice in case I'm wrong)
>Are they easy to work on?
Yes
>>15470936
That said, I highly recommend not touching a salvage.
Reminder that DSM are cool cars
DSMs are one of those ridiculous yet oddly endearing cars.
