What are some weird street names you've seen in your travels?
Went by a place called "Truth or Consequences" when driving to Denver once.

That was a city called Hot Springs that changed its name for a game show contest
I've never understood Floribraska
I think it's because it's between Florida and Nebraska Ave.

Been looking at getting a minivan lately.
Want to Convert to camper, also carry equipment around / get decent mileage / get pussy.
Also want to be able to take offroad a little. Nothing like rock crawling, but dirt roads and the like. Can this be done in a minivan?
also post sick minivan mods.
You want a full size van for this not a minivan. There are some small import vans that I've seen video of doing some crazy offroading too.

1980's Volkswagen Vanagon Syncro meets all your requirements.
yeah the vanagons are awesome but i can't find one under like $10k. They're high demand in NorCal
Where as I can get a toyota sienna for like 2k
Not sure if this kind of thing should get its own thread but I need your guys help.
2001 mercury sable, yesterday I started it up and still idling in Park it made this noise. http://vocaroo.com/i/s1KIFruNQXwg
Also once the whining stops, driving it it knocks really loud the more the rpms rise.

By the sound of the starter you have a vulcan 3.0, you should be able to look at the valve cover on top facing the front and see "OHV" on it. You serpentine belt is on the left side of the engine, some of it is tucked down a little. Look and see if anything is fucked, as >>15150800 said.

>Um... what full sized van market?
From the last article:
>It's one of the fastest-growing, most lucrative vehicle segments -- yet you'll almost never see one prominently parked in a dealership's showroom.
>U.S. sales of full-size vans are increasing eight times faster than the industry average so far in 2016. Combined with their compact siblings, com-mercial vans are on track to top half a million...

That shit is fun to drive, I drive my bosses sometimes. Almost tipped it over once
Nooooooo!
>>15150254
It can be fixed with original new parts.
There are a ton of online communities and shops that specialize in strictly DeLorean parts. Also, it's made out of stainless steel. Worst case scenario is you get a machine/fab shop you make new a new fender and hood.
All is not lost. Now is also a good time for an LS swap

So I want to buy this car I found on cl from Indiana, this will just be a project car and something I drive for fun. Would it be a good idea to bolt on tags I pull from the junkyard, drive it uninsured, and just get a radar detector and hope I never get pulled over? Any other ideas? Pic semi-related
>>15150042
No.
Dumbass.
Just buy it and explain it to a cop and show him the bill of sale if asked.

>Would it be a good idea to bolt on tags I pull from the junkyard, drive it uninsured, and just get a radar detector and hope I never get pulled over?
No, that's a terrible idea. You could be looking at jail time for doing that shit.
Just follow the proper procedures for transferring the registration to your name in your state, get the correct license tags, and just get the minimum liability coverage required.
