what happend with the black ice meme?

>can't even cut it as a trucker

>>13851511
Not a trucker, fortunately. It was the small bus, ambulance, and taxi licence.

Yeah, but my car only has lap belts so they probably won't do anything in the event of an accident.

Only on somewhat long highway trips. My left collar bone has been broken 3 times, and it healed at a 45 degree angle where the seat belt touches it. I've had a couple low speed accidents that weren't my fault where I wasn't wearing my seat belt. If I had been, the sudden stop would've probably broken my collar bone for the 4th time, and I'd have to have a steel plate put in.

Yes, but more or less because I don't want to give cops an extra reason to bother me.

nigger r u serious? get the fuck off /o/.

Imagine a more comfy RX7 with a MOTHERFUCKING TRI ROTOR.

>>13851202
Those are considerably more numb than the equivalent beemer. They're comfy enough, but go elsewhere if you're looking for any sort of fun.

>>13851211
I don't know, I've read multiple reviews in which it was specifically praised for not being numb like them

You looking to buy brand new or used?

If new get a v6 jaguar XE, if used get an f-type v8

And she's in desperate need of a fresh paint job. I'm not planning on getting rid of her anytime soon. Paid $8k cash when I got her with 80k miles.

It became a very evil nasty thing to own a car/anything that radiated the kind of old money big luxury that this car had.
subtly associated with police, but with an aura of middle management american male

Gotta love the Skoda Felicia...

Bought a Vantrue R1 for just under $100 recently. It's very nice.

Look at its review. I would not recommend a cheaper camera.

Need to buy a memory cards on the side, and you can get a 32gb for $12

DOD LS460W
Wins tests all over, brilliant quality
They record ten hours total, and automatically deletes the oldest recording and keeps filming so you always have fresh film

>>13850850

10 hours?
Isn't that a bit too short? I thought these things are capable of recording 24 hours minimum.

Did you get that price quoted at a shop?
Those aren't the most difficult things to do yourself if you can pull the parts from a junkyard.

>owning a brick and not doing the work yourself

why?

You could have gotten a new ICU for about $20 from a junkyard or $40 shipped from someone on turbobricks.

Sell it to an enthusiast and get a civic bro.

>>13850753

If thats the value of your car in a scrapyard than I wouldn't think it too hard to find parts for it for much, much cheaper than 1490

>>13850685

>not checking your wheels before you leave

Waste another weekend doing nothing of what I wanted and lamenting the fact.

i rode my bike in heavy rain and now my bike chain is making weird noises. what do?

I attempted drifting for the first time - in a car with a broken handbrake.

Turned out pretty well actually.

So you're riding. And you have to pass gas. Do you lift up off the seat and let er rip? Or just let one off on the seat cause you're incognito?

>>13849978
