disgusting.
Del Sols are cute to begin with, but then you added the little mouth and everything. It reminds of a cross between a Spitfire airplane and a little puppy.

Mitsubishi fags on suicide watch
>reuters
>>14895309
The Evo is no longer in production anyway, who cares?
Mitsubishi should just get back to only making pens and AC units.
...and it is leaking like a goddamned sieve.
Could anyone tell me what the cause might be and is my car toast? I probably have to dump a quart in a week.
This leak is under the engine, drivers side.

>>14895253
Dammit, really?
I can't afford a new or even used car right now.

1. Nobody will see those moneys
2. Nobody cares
2.5. Nobody cares how much their car pollutes
as far as I'm concerned, VW delivered to the customers by providing vehicles that do achieve 50+ MPG. The EPA can eat a dick.
>>14895254
EXCUSE ME, BUT NO. VW ENDANGERED ME AND MY CHILDREN. SINCE WE HAVE DISCOVERED THIS HORRIBLE CHEATING SCANDAL MY DAUGHTER HAS BEEN TO THE DOCTOR 3 TIMES WITH A COUGH, I AM SCARED SHE WAS POISONED WITH DEADLY NOX GASES.
WE EXPECT VW TO PAY FULLY FOR THIS. MY DAUGHTER MAY NEVER WORK AGAIN BECAUSE THESE DEADLY GASES COULD HAVE VERY WELL AFFECTED HER ABILITY TO LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLEST.

Can somebody explain to me the thought process of people who think a car in front of a truck is going to yield for said when the car has right of way?
Also pic related: this where the merged lane pours out into the highway, apparently this Oldsmobile thought this would actually work.
General road rage/blogging thread
People do it because hur dur can't be behind a big vehicle for longer than 3 seconds. It's fucking annoying as the driver of one of these large vehicles
>>14894969
You mean being a selfish cunt who does NOT have anything resembling right of way and nearly causes accidents because you're butthurt about cars who are already ahead of you being ahead of you?

What does /o/ think of grandpas 2001 Saab 93 4-Door Hatchback (76,000 Miles) - $3300
http://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/5547425567.html
Bretty nice
You think its worth $3000? Looking for something I can get three years out of.
>>14894837
3000.. no
2500.. yeah, maybe 2600 or so.
You will need to verify it has had synthetic oil every 3000 if city driven, 5000 if highway. If synthetic was not used sludge killed these cars.
Anyone ever dragged one of these. Moving soon, what should I expect.
driving a Honda pilot.
you should expect bad gas milage and a weird rear tugging sensation.
Drive caution, it will take you longer to brake. Remember you have a trailer when turning.
you might want to change all your fluids before you go, engine oil, transmission, transfer case, both diffs.
it blows up
ex uhaul employee here, >>14894718 is correct.
also expect water leaks if you're dropping it off at the same location you're picking it up from.
Just picked up for 7500, needs new timing belt and front left strut. Did I do good, /o/
>>14894644
Do you know what you got?

>>14894649
Had to Jack it up to check, its a '68 cougar
What's /o/'s opinion on the Fiesta ST?
Is it really that good? Or is it a meme car?
Any common faults with it?
Talk me into/out of buying one.
bump with ugly/cramped interior
>>14894575
apparently a good little car, but backseat might as well not exist. so if you're single looking for a car in it's price range then you're golden.
>>14894711
>so if you're single looking for a car in it's price range then you're golden
this is me exactly
Well, just changed my bulbs.
DRLs are MTEC T20 and the main beams are Phillips WhiteVision.
Happy with the cold glow of the new mtec bulbs, but they just aren't as bright as the OEM ones.
Too bad the car's still a piece of shit.

Step up senpai.
Id say the older 80-90s goa trance/ trance works better then the new stuff. not that the new stuff is bad but it just has a different vibe when it comes to night driving( not so much a go fast encouraging feeling)
does any one else do their own tuneups?
Kill yourself and your mother
>>14894327
gotta love /o/
>>14894316
I don't know what a tune up is
