Javid posted:So what all got borged into this thread? Stupid poo poo, mechanical failures, craigslist? And probably 80% of the cell phone thread. Some could have used consolidation like the cell phone thread, but I agree with the others in things like Mechanical Failures and Craiglist Gold to have their own thread. They saw plenty of traffic and while had some derails, mostly kept to the topic.

BoostCreep posted:It was nearly a new car at the time and they were making plenty more. After reading the description in that video, they didn't even destroy the '64 picture car. They went and bought a used '63 to crush, and it was only one. I could have sworn I saw something where pretty much any car is a shell in a modern day movie (that is completely destroyed).

kastein posted:I don't see a problem with the first, and the second is actually substantially better than most trucks in Florida from what I've been lead to believe. License plates on that first one - what a waste of money. While on license plates... quote:"14" stands for a white supremacist's fourteen-word motto: "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." "CV" stands for "Confederate Veteran," and "88" stands for the eighth letter of the alphabet twice in a row. That's H-H, or "Heil Hitler." This last one actually made me laugh:

EightBit posted:Easy women, same reason most people in the South do it. We call these Bro-Hoes in southern California. They typically have the bleach highlighted hair, nautical star tattoos, wear nothing but black and hot pink, hats where the bill points to the sky, and usually missing a few teeth. They also put stickers on their Cali-lifted Ford Explorers that say "Silly boys, trucks are for girls" while knowing nothing about vehicles at all. They swoon over these types of trucks, construction jobs*, and really bad tattoos. If they have kids, they look like a mini-me of the mom or dad. *Nothing wrong with construction jobs, but it's the only job a Dude-Bro will have.

JP Money posted:What answers do they usually give? I'd accept "clothing" as a fair answer as that's primarily what they sell with motocross gear and apparel. I mean most people don't actually use Alpinestars, MSR, etc gear but they still go to the mall and buy the stuff to fit that image. Even better if it has a giant green Monster logo on it. That and riding gear usually.

AirRaid posted:If we're doing anecdotal evidence that PT cruisers are awful, I was driving next to one a while back and part of the wing mirror fell off it as I went past. My friend's wife, who works as customer service at a repair shop, recently picked one up from the shop owner with a life long full history of maintenance. I believe the engine poo poo the bed within 2 weeks of them getting it. I felt bad because they don't have much money and have 3 kids, but at the same time, she should have known better right? She's worked in the industry long enough to not be ignorant (or so I thought, literally wondering why they bought it when I found out, pre-destruction). I've never really looked into them because of how ugly they are, but I've never heard good things about their reliability. Is the engine one of those things? Edit: content. Wish I could find a bigger one of this: We should probably make a thread for these. Loan Dusty Road fucked around with this message at 09:33 on Sep 6, 2013 |

Rhyno posted:"Baby Phantom", "Baby Rolls", "Baby Royce." None of those roll off the tongue like "Baby Bentley." You guys can hate on it all you want, I do too, but it is a thing. poo poo, just look at loving Car Domain. I don't think these people make these based around the word 'baby'. They do it because their parents dropped them when they were a baby (or smoked something). I've seen way more RR "conversions" than Bentley in So Cal. For $15,000 you can have one too! (after you bring them your 300). http://intorg.netfirms.com/Cars10/RollsRoyce/2005_rolls_royce_phantom_replica.htm Don't forget to get your accessories here! http://www.300fx.com/ It's a shame really, because I liked the look of the 300 when it came out, but there are more of them with lovely RIMZ, Autozone port holes, and ugly cheap grills than actual stock ones here. I get a wanna-be rapper vibe from them, trying to pretend they have the cars that were rented in the music videos.

tobu posted:I think with a blow-out like that they are pretty lucky they only lost a bumper. Look at the tire marks - it must have really shredded in one go or they just kept driving on it. Sometimes I have nightmares where I am driving an out of control car from the back seat. I'm not joking.
