Is this a good product for a good enough wax and protection?
I've only used turtle wax. The spray kind is the best and gives you a ton of shine with minimal effort. Just spray, wipe, and dry.
>>15376798
Thanks my men, I'm buying one as as speak.
I live in a 40c weather and i really don't have enough time to wax it the proper way.
>>15376893
its a pretty great product but buy the ICE version instead. its much better
also the spray waxes are not as durable as regular waxing so you'll have to reapply more often
Does /o/ own a black car?
How the fuck do you keep it presentably clean and still have time to go to work?
Every scratch or water drop shows on black cars.
>12 years of $1500-$3000 beaters

>buy a 2013 Lancer with only 11k miles on it
>first black car I've ever owned
>had it only 5 months and wash it weekly
>clay bar and polish, then wax every month
>still filthy
I wash the body itself twice as much as i clean the break dust off the rims.
To keep this car looking like its only 3 years old I would be putting in 20 hours a week
How the fuck do you do it?
>I don't drive on unpaved roads at all
I dont care about it being clean

ITT: Cars that have been forgotten to such a degree that you wouldn't even recall them if someone told you about them because you never were aware of their existence in the first place.
Here's a ninth generation Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham Coupé. Did anyone of you guys know that this was an actual car?
I actually recognize these quite well i just never knew their name. looking at these actually brings back some memories from when i was younger growing up in the ghetto part of town i saw cars like these a lot.
Picture here is a 1988 Grand Prix. One thing i remember instinctively about this car is its rear tail-lights. Supposedly the Fifth generation Grand Prix was raced at Pikes Peak.
>>15376548
Are you 10?
You still see plenty of 80's GM 3800's around. Even in the rust belt. And the Delta 88 name goes back to the 60's so I don't see why you think it's some obscure car
>>15376614
Big boy wheel wells right there.
Is the CTS-V Coupe a bad car?
Sure, why not?
Are you a pad person?

How the fuck does people drive when it rains? My windshield gets super wet and the cleaners don't work that well. Plus my side windows get droplets, the rear mirrors too. I literally can't see shit.
Is there any trick I'm missing? Fuck this rain bullshit.
>>15376249
Rain X your windows fag. I drive in storms without using my wipers because of that shit. Water beads up and slides off. Also change your wipers
>>15376249
>My windshield gets super wet and the cleaners don't work that wel

>tfw people are taking out 96 month car loans
That's right, 96 month loans. 8 Y E A R S of paying for a car.
Why would people do this?
cheap and easy approvals for car loans
overproduction of new cars to maintain revenue
lack of understanding of compounding interest
pick one
>>15376095
People are stupid, what else is new?

Hey /o/, I'm looking into buying a used truck for the first time, Idealy under 10 grand and under 100k in miles, I know that limits me quite a bit but I've found good deals. I've read the guide in the sticky but it doesn't tell me a lot
My question is does anybody have any experiences with Dodges breaking down? They're so much cheaper I'm worried I'll just end up shoveling a bunch of money to maintain it. I'll only be hauling tree branches and furniture occasionally so I don't need that much hauling power, and it'll mostly get highway miles.
Tl,dr: Do Dodge Trucks break down significantly more than ford, Chevy, and Toyota?
>>15376092
Why do you need a truck?
>>15376145
he cant afford a trailer
Craigslist, spend 2k and you'll get a solid truck. Don't plan on daily driving it though
Sup /o/,
I need advise badly, I'm replacing my camshaft/lifters in my 05 jetta, but one of the lifters is very very stuck down. I'm a pretty big guy, 6'1 189 lbs, and with all my weight and strength I can't pry the thing out a millimeter. I have completely run out of ideas to get this thing out and I haven't found a single thing googling around for hours. Anyone see this happen before, or have an idea as to how I could get this out?
The pic is my car, i can give other pictures if necessary.
>jetta
Scrap it
use a slide hammer with the attachment for it.
for example pilot bearing remover
>>15376044
trust me, if I could afford it, I would. This thing has been a nightmare.
