So say you can take any car up Pikes Peak, but the road is open to the public and speed limits are in place. What car do you take?

Mine, pic related. Pike's Peak summit.
just bought a used ml320cdi and holy fuck what a piece of shit, I should have done my research this tranny is a piece of fucking shit, the comand system seemed to work fine turns out one of the modules or something is fucked and the cunts used OPTICAL FUCKING FIBER to connect the modules together. The liftgate didin't work so figured it was the pump/motor and sure enough it was rusty as fuck, managed to fix that and then realized the module is missing THE FUCKING LIFTGATE HAS ITS OWN MODULE
Fuck my life I should've gotten the grand cherokee diesel. All I wanted...

where did you guy the truck? if you say a used car lot or CL you should kill yourself.
>>14730388
auction
Also had a oil cooler leak that wasn't mentioned.
>>14730415
then you fucked yourself over. you were told the risks of buying a auction car. you are better off selling it. MB diesels are a pain in the ass and expensive to fix because aftermarket parts never work on mercedes. its your fault, not mercedes
Why doesn't /o/ like Volkswagens?
They seem to follow a design philosophy that /o/ likes in making cheap, reliable premium econoboxes with manual transmissions standard on most models.
Is it because of Audi and their sometimes rebadged "upscaled" models? Because honestly, if you look past that, the brand in itself is really solid in itself.
So am I missing something or what?

most autists on /o/ don't care about interior accoutrements at all, which is VW's main selling point

I love my vw, I hate the fanbase though.

Hey /o/ i've been looking at first trucks to buy. I've been leaning toward the Caterpillar 797B. What do you all think?
>>14724933
Those tires are too small to do anything with.
>>14724933
Seriously though, how much would it cost to buy one of these used? And would you have to go to an auction to find one? How much did this shit cost new? I'm kind of curious about this now
>>14724940
Indeed,get a Caterpillar 994,better tires.
Living in Denmark, where cars are extremely expensive due to the road/green taxes, registration costs, insurance, etc... Price can be triple compared to same cars in neighboring countries, ie.: Sweden, Germany.
Because of this, I am looking for a cheap, small and, relatively, reliable car. I've been looking at VW Polo, Peugeot 206, Toyota Yaris,Hyundai Getz, etc. All from years 2000-2002. Do you guys can anything to recommend?
Moving out of Denmark
sorry for the grammar mistakes.

what's a reasonable price for an s2000? and before you say zero, bear in mind that i can find you, and i will bully you irl.
>>14731824
bout tree FIDDY.
>>14731824
Depends on condition.
7k to 10k maybe more for a very nice specimen.
>>14731837
for 10k? you could just buy a brz for that much.
2003 Santa Fe or 2006 Sonata?
I have 2 young kids. This is what is available now in my area through a USAA approved. My 96 Explorer is total loss after a girl hit me while texting and driving.
I know its 4chan but if you can refrain from ridiculing me. There are no decent Camrys or hondas in my area/price range atm.
>>14731534
Financing? Seriously? How much cash do you have?
>>14731546
I am not looking to take out a loan until I finish school in two years.
>having to finance a 10 year old kia
Where did it go wrong bro?
What's up /o/?
I have a 2 part survey for you.
Part 1:
>Job title?
>Yearly salary?
>Monthly rent?
>After rent, bills etc, how much per month goes into your savings?
Part 2:
>What do you drive?
>How much did you buy it for?
>How many miles were on the clock when you bought it?
>How much have you spent on repairs?
fuck you and these pointless surveys
do murricuns only apply?

Nope, people from all countries may apple but it would be helpful if you specify your currency
Diesel guy here. 2003 5.9 Cummins.
A week ago a cunt broke into my truck, and I believe fucked with my fuel via water/gaterade/side whatever before the police nabbed his ass.
I've gone through and drained the tank and swapped the fuel filter twice now. The injectors sound shot.
For insurance how would you guys go about this?? Thanks.

>fuel via water/gaterade/side
what?
>drained the tank and swapped the fuel filter
air bleed screw?

doesnt cover your stupidity
Is it definitely the full mechanical 6bt engine or is it the early ISB with the vp44 pump and 24 valve head? And how long did it run/how much water do you think it had in if?
>>14730171
What did you do to make that guy want to fuck with your shit?

So.. Question.. I drive a 2000 pontiac grand prix gt. Its not a bad little car as long as you keep up with it considering its not the best and it's old. My question: I think it would be cool to own a GTP but instead of hunting down and buying a GTP should I just supercharge my GT? Wanting to supercharge a grand prix may sound dumb and like a bad idea to some which is why I'm here for,opinions lol
At least one of you on here should totally help me make up my mind
Alone??????
>>14729492
Buy a regal gs instead
should I buy pic related?
1,299 cc dual camshaft four cylinder engine with a 16 valve
steering radius of just 4 metres
1,200 Kg of payload
from 12,688 Euro ($14000) for a new one
pros and cons?
You can get a Dacia for the same amount of money or a segond hand Suzuki or Honda version for even less.
Is that a rebadged daihatsu hijet?
>>14729430
yes, its rwd with a solid rear axle so its pretty much a muscle car.
