Well, what grease would you recommend?

I did everything on my shitbox with Valvoline SynPower Synthetic. Extremely disappointed and I now have two tubes of it I won't be using.
>Greased everything before winter, was still warm enough out I didn't need my heavy winter clothing
>Cold enough I remember waiting for the peak of the day to do the job

Anyhow, I crawled under there a week or two ago and decided to re-grease everything.
>The old grease came out rather fluidly and no longer had a lubrication feel to it in the u joints
>Grease from suspension components actually seems to dried up, came out extremely chalky as new grease pushed it out

Went back up town and picked up tube of Red N' Tacky for now.

You can buy any car you want but the model (not make) of the Car must start with the same letter as your first name.

If the car you want starts with a number use the first letter of the Make.

This.

It will be expensive, but you will learn.

Take this for example, I tried to rip a skid in my Integra and this is what happened. First rule of skids is that you never practice around curbs.

So I got pulled over for being a speedyracer and got 6 points on my license. Not yet "convicted" of it however -- plead not guilty to the ticket and my lawyer scheduled court date in several months.

Insurance doesn't know about it, rates are the same.

Would trading in my car for a new one be a problem for insurance purposes? As in, are they gonna open my file and see points, then consequently raise my rates? Or will nothing happen so long as I haven't been found guilty?
Curious because I found a great deal on a car but I'm afraid to pull the trigger thinking my insurance will find out about points.

How's it work? Thanks

Insurance will find out eventually. Buying a new car will probably trigger a check though to make sure you didnt wreck your current one

Aluminum because of how much lighter it is. Modern aluminum engines are pretty durable as well
