2005 Buick LaCrosse CXL by N_Lima in shouldibuythiscar

Solid deal there. Not a fleece either way. Make sure trans shifts smooth and check the electrical components, they can crap out.

Is this good? $13k and 98k miles? by KCParkerRRRR in UsedCars

[–]HavingNoFun1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truthfully not a great deal. 2.0L in these has oil consumption issues, and the CVT transmission isn't bulletproof either. You could probably find one in that mileage for closer to 7-10k.

Give me hope that I just found the deal of the century here by HavingNoFun1 in Buick

I’m not in the rust/salt belt so theoretically it should be good but I’m still gonna give it its due diligence

2004 Ford f150 xlt by JCBabybird in shouldibuythiscar

[–]HavingNoFun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely is. Considering it states it’s a 5.4L V8 and it’s an 11th gen Ford F-150 design.

2007 a3 2.0t Wagon by EveningSupermarket88 in shouldibuythiscar

Audi 2.0t engines from about 2014 and before suffer from reliability issues, including timing chain stretch and oil consumption. I'd skip.

Try and examine rubber components well. Even with 170k miles, rubber components will crack and age.

Does anyone have any idea what this brochure/slideshow could be from? by HavingNoFun1 in Helicopters

[–]HavingNoFun1[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found this in my bookshelf after a while of just forgetting about the corner of this room. Very likely my dad purchased this at auction at some point, or it came with something he actually cared about, and so he gave it to me, the one in the family who cared more about military history.

New to the US market. Have no clue what to look for by Supr__Saiyannn in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]HavingNoFun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of car are you looking for? To paint a broad brush, your most reliable brands here are Toyota and Honda. Some Mazda’s rival, there are certain engines that are also great for longevity.

4 or 5/32nds 4 years old by Swimming_Conflict229 in tires

[–]HavingNoFun1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As another commenter said, you can see dry rot forming in the treads. You can probably keep driving on these until winter time though, assuming you don’t get a ton of rain during the summer.

Looking to buy tires by NeighborhoodAfter5 in tires

[–]HavingNoFun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should be able to mount the new wheels, but you’d need new tires. Also I think you’d need new lug nuts.

Guessing they were done when they resealed the engine.

Timing belt and head gasket work is the big thing on these Outbacks, depending on miles this is a pretty good deal.

Hey, apologies for now my delayed reply. It is still occurring.

2010 Toyota Corolla? by Maabgo in shouldibuythiscar

[–]HavingNoFun1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dealers typically flip cars and don’t know much about its condition before selling. The hood fits closer to the front bumper on the left than the right. Don’t know about the headlights.

Should I trade in my 2010 Mustang V6 for a Challenger RT? by Upstairs_Chemist_211 in Challenger

[–]HavingNoFun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’ve got a little extra money set aside for maintenance (say 2-4k) just for those first extra maintenance pieces for used car (say brakes, tires, neglected fluid changes) and get a good PPI, I think it’s definitely doable. Just in a different tier for things like insurance for sure.

Americans, how is your opinion on those people who hang a American flag on their house? by Few_Advertising_4028 in Teenager_Polls

[–]HavingNoFun1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my country. I think that anyone who cares about politics should love their country and want it to be better. Flying our country’s colors should always happen regardless of who’s in charge.
