While I was at lunch yesterday some dude rolled up in an HHR and it reminded me of this thread. It also got me thinking of just how on point the PT cruiser actually was. It was supposed to be a throwback to the what, 30s? 40s? Chrysler actually was more successful than they ever hoped to be. Not only does the car resemble something made 80 years ago, but it also performed like one made 80 years ago.

Coming to the door of the tomb in which I had fallen, I shoved the rockfall aside with great effort and stepped out, bloodied, silk dress shirt torn, into what turned out to be a highway parking area. Seeing me, a girl dressed like a 1970s Tom Baker - the fashion at the time, I assumed - fell on her rear end and scooted backwards, screaming in half-understood high pitched Japanese. She covered her face so as not to make eye contact with my visage, not wanting to share in my burden. The dust started to clear. The earthquake sirens were still going off, and the adrenaline-comedown shaking that started in my arms had reached my knees. I felt faint, but I struggled onward through the cloud of rubble dust, in search of rationality, a concrete basis on which to pin my future hopes and dreams. It must have been quite a sight for the PT Cruiser Touge Club when I emerged from the gently-burning cloud of concrete ash into their parking area. The survivors were already overwhelmed with caring for the dead and dying, and the return of what I was rapidly determining to be the true source of their discomfort inflicted an additional psychic wound that popped the human equivalent of many of their head gaskets.

I worked with a girl that owed a bunch of money on a PT cruiser and was behind on payments, but it was a piece of junk. Her dad put literally five thousand dollars into the thing to get it into good shape, and two weeks later they repossessed it. They repoed it guys. She wasn't that smart, and I guess the tree that she fell off of wasn't either.

When you have to put that much money into a vehicle you're still paying off, you've made a poor purchase decision.

14 INCH SLIT posted:Sometimes I head out to the Fred Meyer and just look at it for a whIle In Glen Burnie, Maryland, there is a run-down service station called Country Club Automotive. Completely typical archetype - four pumps in two rows, four service bays, a varying number of broken down or awaiting-service cars parked on the side lot. As a friend of a friend of the shop owner's son, I used to spend some time there. Either helping out after-hours on project cars, or just bumming around the shop, shootin' the poo poo with the boys. That service station had a secret, however. The owner was a traveling service guy for Maserati back in the 80s, until they left the US. When they pulled out, he opened CCA and offered services to all his old clients. Around the timeframe I hung out there, the entire rear yard was FULL of Biturbos, Quattroporte IIs and IIIs, sometimes even a Merak or a Spyder. There was a small area at the back of the shop, behind a drop-cloth hung on a shelving unit, that housed an engine or two up on stands with a shelf of various other 80s Maserati components. 80s masochistic bliss. At one point, he had a bigger influx of Mazzes than his back lot could accommodate in the fenced-in back lot, so he parked some of them on the side lot. I was helping my friend strip down his project 912 in one of the bays, when an old lady who shouldn't have been on the road got confused by a person turning onto the road (in the opposite direction she was traveling, not cutting her off or anything), jumped the curb, narrowly missed one of the pumps, and slammed into five cars. Some busted old Chevy truck a rusted-out Honda, and three 80s Maseratis. What a goddamn waste.

It begins. I pulled codes for a PT Cruiser earlier. Had five or six codes. When the guy asked what was wrong, I almost blurted out, "It's a PT Cruiser."
