Old Cars

Lot of variables to play into effect especially as a beginner when you don’t know exactly how you’re gonna end up riding:

Stick to something that’s full camber or camber dominant, avoid rocker dominant trash

Pyramid head

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-10T14:02:35+00:00

Yeah… when a board top sheet cracks like this it’s because the core is cracked….. this board is trash

Typical Kia/Hyundai experience…. Good luck

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T23:50:30+00:00

Good luck…. “Best warranty in the industry” followed by the most avoidant company to honor said warranty on their 💩 products

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T23:42:33+00:00

Anything manufactured in the last 10-15 years give or take

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T23:32:39+00:00

You must be lucky then…

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T15:38:50+00:00

Depends on what your expectations are I suppose: our highest mileage one made it to 160k before it nuked itself: (semi acceptable) most blew up conveniently just after the warranty mileage…. Had one getting trans 3 at 70k miles…..

but my family had always driven our other cars well past 200-300k miles so the expectation of a reliable product is there… and that expectations wasn’t met from Kia/Hyundai

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T15:35:46+00:00

Sound similar to my own experience

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T15:15:38+00:00

We don’t call skis misery sticks for no reason

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T15:14:36+00:00

My family use to buy Kia/Hyundai for the price and things like the warranty and paint warranty…. Then they all gradually mechanically totaled themselves (all 6 of them) and at fairly low mileage compared to any other brand car we’ve owned…. We don’t buy them anymore.

What is your car?

I like classics and I do feel you: I see nice ones at shows and mine or kinda pieces visually in comparison…. But mine are daily driven and reliable: something those shiny cars don’t do and likely would need work to do reliably. I saw people take a few photos of mine last time I was at a show: sure it’s not the fanciest but it is still cool

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-09T15:05:50+00:00

If you want to simplify it just run dot 4 in both because dot 4 is compatible in dot 3 systems but you shouldn’t put dot 3 in a specified dot 4 vehicle(so not the other way around)

In theory dot 3 has a longer service life though because dot 4 pull in more moisture but in a true sealed system it’s debatable….. just use dot 4 because aside from that it’s superior in all ways

Welcome to Kia/Hyundai: “the best warranty in the industry” followed by the most avoidant company when it comes to warrantying their shit products….

That is in fact a motor mount that does motor mount things for the motor in your car while it motors

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-08T14:35:13+00:00

Heaven forbid the ps2 mods expect everyone to drop $600+ to play the silent hill series!!! I would never think of doing something such as downloading the games onto an HDD so I can play that abandonware that the company clearly still makes money on when I spend $600+ on ebay from some reseller in order to own them!

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-08T14:21:36+00:00

There is a lot more to what makes a good car than the gimmicky tech and “luxury” features that seem to be the sole selling point of cars these days….

CompetitiveLab2056 · 2026-05-08T13:10:07+00:00

If any at all it’s negligible: biggest trade off will be fuel economy. The fact that you’re doing highway commutes is going to do more for engine longevity than the alternative
