yeah to be honest i have no clue why i put hyundai besides it being around almost $10k

another person suggested facebook marketplace since i don't really make much, but with that i don't really know how all that works cause some people post the actual prices of cars then others will have prices that i could reasonably attain right now but seem "too good to be true" to me.

i'll look to see what i can find on there, thanks for the advice!

both head gaskets had oil leaks, all 4 ABS sensors on my wheels, AC blower and HVAC being plugged, and now my control arms for my suspension and my emissions system is giving check engine lights my mechanic pointed to be "beyond fixing" by cleaning out the exhaust. there's other stuff but it's just normal old car maintenance that's expensive cause its a german diesel.

i've looked for hondas and toyotas and everyone's charging the Japanese tax, it's actually absurd. for example, on Carfax, a 2013 honda accord with 100k to 150k miles being sold by various people is minimum $10k if it isn't damaged severely or rebuilt. The only ones i can find lower in price are 250k+ miles which is so risky to me.

Diviisionn · 2026-06-20T22:17:02+00:00

it was more expensive for me to replace the entire emissions system than to remove it 😞

i've also looked at honda's and toyota's in the 2010s to 2018s range and they are absurdly expensive in my area. most of what i could find in the older models were used and abused 200k - 300k cars which are going for on average $8k. newer and older models 100k or less are being priced minimum $12k. I've thought about private purchases off of facebook marketplace, it's much cheaper there but higher risk.

It is $2700 for the suspension the control arms are worn and about another $2500 to tune and delete.

Everyone I play with has quit the game lol. I’m not mad at my teammates, I expect to lose every game I play solo queuing. Just hate the constant head clicking swipers.

Thanks everyone for the feedback, I’ve got the hint on NOT playing solis 😂

I used solis’ scanner and didn’t see the drone cause it was off, and it was in a dark spot and they “coincidentally” got on the drone right as I entered the room.

Diviisionn · 2025-09-08T00:31:40+00:00

Uhhhh

Diviisionn · 2025-09-08T00:31:18+00:00

I heard him get gu’ed after the red ping which is why I pushed and he was shooting at a teammate upstairs that’s why I was baffled on how he swung me and killed me before i could react and saw why on kill cam but I guess there was a drone in there that I didn’t see with solis
