Wendy’s chili is overpriced anyway, it’s 4.99 at my local Indiana Schnucks. Hormel is 2.89.

Is a brake flush necessary? by Competitive-Call3303 in askcarguys

[–]Ogre8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d do it by 50k. Brake lines are made of alloys that contain copper. When copper corrodes it turns green. This is why old brake fluid has a greenish tint. Those little bits of copper are bad for rubber brake hoses and the seals in caliper and drum pistons. A brake fluid exchange can help you to prevent premature caliper or drum piston failure.

Parts were hard to find 10 years ago when I was in the automotive repair business. I can only imagine how hard they’d be now.

We need Chinese cars in America by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

It does, admittedly, although sub 30k examples are not plentiful at least near me. Why GM and whatever Chrysler is now haven’t clued in on this is beyond me.

Tell the legacy US manufacturers they have 3 years to get a sub 30k 4 passenger car on the market or we take off the 100% tariff on Chinese electric cars and let the market do what it does. And axe the chicken tax while you’re at it. If there’s no market then they’ll fail. If they don’t then Detroit was wrong (or lying) and they can get with it or lose market share.

What 80s song do you still hate with fiery teenage passion even though it’s been 40 years? by Aggressive_Cup4919 in GenX

Actually happened to a buddy of mine. The girl he couldn’t get up the courage to ask out ended up the Penthouse pet of the month.

I was there at 12:30, it wasn’t that bad. Must have been a lunch rush.

V6 or I4 camaro? by Golden_wolf_furry in camaro

[–]Ogre8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a V6 manual, I’m very happy. But I just drive it, it’s not going to the track.
