Suddenly there's some blurry blob right before your eyes. You can literally feel it in your face.
You move your head back 3 inches and see this.
What now?
Tell him to hop in the passenger seat, tell him it's gonna be a long ride.

HARD MODE:
eggs start farting out onto your face and nose
>tfw /o/ is my gf
imagine if your gf was all into cars
she would be a hummer fanboy because they are big and girls think guys like big things
she would probably be a total ricer and a bench racer it would be awful
get a BF instead they are much better...
>ex gf was into cars as much as I am
>her brother owned a mk4 supra
>brother let her use the car since he's overseas
>broke up with her because our relationship was forever in limbo
>current gf didn't even know the make and model of her car until she met me (Ford Focus)
It's been a year and my love for cars has not rubbed off on her yet.
Has /o/ ever ran from the police?
>no lying on the internet edition
I don't think I technically did sense the cop wasnt specifically behind me when he turned on his lights
>20yo idiot
>driving my dad's 04 cobra

>two cars right on my ass speeding but not trying to race
>state trooper at crest of hill parked
>no time to slow down even a little
>praying he's doing paperwork
>he pulls out after a few cars pass
>scared of getting a ticket
>not even thinking I gun it to God knows what
>heart pounding so hard I can hear it
>palms sweating
>see a puff of black smoke behind the cop so I can tell he's hauling ass
>take the next exit after a curve
>100+ on the shoulder of the exit passing cars
>run 3 red lights and park at a mall a few miles away and go in
>wait an hour, go see a movie then go home
>next few days sweating bullets not knowing if he was coming after me or got a glance at my dad's license plate
Probably the stupidest thing I've done in my entire life. Never told anyone
>>14657608
if true, that's not a bad story OP.
Never ran from the police because I am a pussy.
IF YOUR REAL ABOUT IT THEN WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU EVEN ASKING
Cop tailing me, speeding after i had left the bar. I got around another slowcar he got stuck behind. Fly into my driveway praying for the door opener to open quicker, i fly into the garage quick and jump out to hit the manual garage door unlocker thing and slam the door down in half a second.
Sweating bullets peeking out my windows with the lights off while he circles the block five times.

I've seen one class 8 truck in the last week, and it was snowed in. I'll grab a picture next time I head out to the reindeer farm. Sleeping all day then going to town and dropping $80 a night at the bars is making me fond of the NEETlyfe.

>Obtaining a CDL: How does one do?
Where: Community College, Vocation Specific School (i.e. Trucker School)
How: Savings motherfucker, or financing - some schools finance, there's financial aid if you can go to a comm. college, banks hand out loans for CDL training all the time because lots of companies will pay it for you once you're hired.
>How can I into avoidings shit companies?
Here are some decent/good companies:
http://pastebin.com/Sv0cyWyH
If you don't see the company you're looking at included on this list, it's probably a coin toss between good or bad.
>I could totally go to school but I'd rather be a trucker.
Worked for me, but listen to the greentext below
>You're literally retarded. Go to school. Anyone can get a CDL in less than a month of training. You can't do that with schooling. AFTER you get that degree/cert., if you don't like the field/career you're in, THEN get a CDL.

Should Europe/Japan try making a pony car to compete with the Camaro/Mustang?
No, because those types of cars aren't attractive over here due to the horses & emissions making it seem extremely expensive for what you get.
The people who can afford cars like those here are not the type of people who want a flashy pony, but rather something like a discreet BMW with more luxury that doesn't really stick out
>>14656254
Holy shit, that much for a Stang? They're closer to 30,000$ in NA.
And if you're talking about Europe/Japan making a pony car to compete with the americans on their own land... good luck. There is a reason why very few non-american manufacturers (basically only Toyota and Nissan) try selling pickup trucks on the US market, and they can only dream of achieving the sales numbers that Ford and Chevrolet has

What's your favorite car color /o/? I'm partial to white because I'm a boring faggot. What about you?
Depends on the car. Mostly green and blue, though.
Exceptions for some magnificent reds and much more.
>>14655441
Depends on the car.
Some cars look shite in some colors. That's all.
Bonus points for posting your least favorite color. I think beige is an obvious one, but I'm also not a fan of maroon.
Hey /o/,
I have always been that guy that passes a french car and says
>yuck
But in recent weeks I took a closer look at them.
Interior is everything but cheap and the amount of extras is very high for a nice price.
Also PSA is one of the big players in European automotive industry, so I guess they are doing something right.
Look at this picture and tell me: Would you, /o/?
>>14654998
I would.
Citroën is comfy.
Comfy is good.
>>14655034
>Citroën is comfy.
Right?!
I just sat in there at the dealership and I was amazed.
Everything is robust and does not feel like plastic at all. You get leather seats and everything for €25k. A similar Golf costs €35k+.
Glad that there are also other people who appreciate Citroen, tells me that I did not lose my mind.
>C4
Probably would.
Cons: looks fat af, basically a rebadged 308
Pros: less shouty than the 308 which seems to be offered only with muh angry smoked headlights and muh silver-on-gloss-black rims
Comfy, big enough for everyday stuff, enough go power with the 1.6THP
Curently driving a Xantia, replacing it with a C5 Mk2 would be great but it's only got 85kkms and has been excellently maintained so it probably won't need replacing in the next 3-4 years.
>get into a modern car
>pic related is nowhere to be found
what the fuck
A lot of them have a button that just applies the regular brakes. It's pretty dumb. If you hit it while moving it kind of just slows you down like if you rested your foot firmly on the brakes. I don't even know if it works with the car off.
>>14654784
I don't have one of those on my manual.

What maintenance items have you been putting off?
My brakes and rotors.
Just had timing belt and water pump replaced, but fuck me if I feel like stopping.

Surprise announcement: I'm gonna be in Mexico this Friday till next Saturday on a missions trip. I'll have no interwebs access, so if you guys want this thread, you're gonna have to keep it alive or repost. I'll try to grab some photos of Datsuns while I'm down there.
POST DATSUNS!
Where in Mexico>>14651579
are you going Anon?

Shit, forgot to add my trip for the OP
I'm going to San QuintÃn (or a small village outside of that, actually), it's about 4 hours south of San Diego. Gonna be working with a construction crew. The church group I'm going with has 3 doctors, about 20 nurses, a chiropractor, three dentists, a ton of skilled workers, etc. We'll be running medical, dental, and chiropractic clinics, along with building a couple of houses and running a VBS for the children in the community. We'll also be going on prayer walks and sharing the gospel with who we can.
If you're down by the border and have a ham radio, tune in to 166.100mhz, I'll have my 2 meter rig with me.

I would love to ham with you but unfortunately I'm all the way in Canada.
Sounds like a cool trip, Do you go on these trips often?
What's up /o/tists,
how many of you here know how to heel and toe properly?
I want to learn and I can sort of pull it off but I have to concentrate really hard and look down at my feet, and even then I end up fucking it up most of the time.
Although it might be a stupid question (and I know you guys love giving people shit for stupid questions), I won't really know until I ask, so here it is - from what I understand, as long as I have the clutch in all the way when I try to heel and toe there really can't be any damage to the car, correct? Would going out to an empty parking lot at night and just practicing heel and toe from 3rd to 2nd at lower speeds be a good way to learn the basics before actually trying it on the road? What's the most important thing to keep in mind while doing it? Right now I just put the ball of my toe on my brakes, then rotate my foot left while braking and tap the accelerator lightly for a 500~ rpm boost, then take my foot off the clutch and brake. It's a bit jerky but it works. Thoughts?

How come it's 2016 and still no one has managed to beat the inline 6 engine?
>>14651251
Emission standards. Or else conjoined inline sixes would be a lot more common.
>>14651262
You mean a V12?
and what about V8 vs I6 emissions?
