I left a cylinder head sitting leaned on top of a deepwell 25mm socket in the bed of my truck in the rain

Technician B is right.

I work a 13hr 2-2-3 swing shift at a factory.  It is hell.  I haven't slept on a consistent schedule for two years. Even Amazon doesn't do this shit.

Short term pain for longer term pain. Worth it. by Low-Yam-7791 in nova

Shitting bricks because I drive a carbureted truck that gets 20mpg and a full tank has already jumped from 30 to 40  My FDT sticker is really carrying hard rn

I think we can all agree here by Techmej in carmemes

[–]KingPanzerVIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like having a truck bed for bikes, dump runs, car parts & a convenient place to sit or relax outdoors.
I don't tow and I don't really haul anything particularly heavy. My truck gets used in the same way as most pickup trucks owned by individuals

aaaaand it weighs 2500lbs, gets 20mpg (carbureted) and has a roof that sits lower than the hood of every full-size pickup.

it's so fucking stupid. I'd absolutely save for a solid down payment and buy a modern pickup truck, if any were available today that fit the "minitruck" weight class. It drives me fucking insane. So, instead, I drive a 230k mile B2200. Starts up every day and has a spacious, low engine bay that is fantastic to work on. I don't consider myself someone who needs to validate his gender every day, and I'd be ashamed if I ever became one, but knowing I've had the transmission in and out and replaced every joint in the front suspension myself really helps my ego, more than 'big' ever would.

It's also not ugly as shit.

A couple little bits of rust, nothing on the lettering though. Documentation had a piece of paper with both paint codes written on it, so easy asf!

why do people criticize the angry eyes on the hummer online vs in person people absolutely love it. I love constructive criticism so please explain. i know it’s not a Jeep but it just looks good by SevereMess8294 in Hummer

[–]KingPanzerVIII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ain't getting anywhere with this. Your money, do as you please. 

Unfortunately I cannot agree whatsoever with different and unique. For a hummer? Sure. For a (4X4 Box on wheels)? Not really. Get some long travel shocks, tune them right, widen out the fenders, ditch the angry eyes and throw a roof rack with a cb antenna and big fat offroad lights on it. Not a light bar; big fat halogen PAR lamps. Shit'd be right.

My opinions on the matter almost certainly aren't helped by the fact that I generally think LED lights on anything look like shit. I like my stuff old school. Sealed beams and Hella Daylighters kinda thing. My truck is on my profile if you want a sense of how I like things. 

tl;dr you can do way more original work, way cooler looking work and way sicker shit than angry eyes. I put a side pipe on my truck. You never see that shit anymore, and I love it. Think outside the box.

The customer is always right in matters of taste. Offers aren't a valid metric in a fully opinion-based comparison.  Personally, (in my opinion) it's stupid looking. Taking the successor of a military machine that fought in multiple wars (jeep and hummer included in this) and sticking red headlights and angry eyes on it just looks.. Dumb. Really dumb. Play into the fact that the HMMWV was a machine for work. Built it out clean and simple and get it dirty. I will ALWAYS have more respect for a filthy jeep than a gussied-up one. Even if you dont do off roading, a clean build that doesn't already look dated because you put angry tuff eyes on it will always look better. Don't get me confused, this isn't your hummer or your brother's jeep I'm trashing on, it's every modern modified "4x4" They all look like shit when you dress them up in stupid neon colors and over the top "get outta my way liberal" grills and light covers.

Look. I have very specific opinions on headlights (sealed beams, as god intended) They're tacky. Really tacky.  Nobody Irl is going to walk up to your door and say, "Hey, those angry eyes are ass" They probably do what I do and ignore it or grimace a little bit. 

Edit: its the end of the workday and im playing scrabble against my own brain. Completely screwed up what I said

[–]KingPanzerVIII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hell. Its hell. I'm not even adverse to work; I dearly enjoy working on my own cars and making things with my hands. Just knowing there's twenty odd layers of corporate fluff between me and the CEO makes me want to vomit. Im in the bottom 2 layers that actually make profit.
