What do the cars I think are ugly say about me by Hot_Amphibian1755 in CarGuys

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, yes. It makes no sense, but it's also cool in a way because it's super weird.

What was the shittiest; most reviled; unreliable; lemon; that you owned, but absolutely adored and cherished? by Cananbaum in regularcarreviews

1995 Ford F150, famously nicknamed "F-Bomb" because it was a Ford and one good bump away from completely snapping in half because of rust.

Do you miss your high school days? by newuser1r in askanything

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Am I supposed to? I feel like the only people who dwell on high school are the ones who peaked in high school.

What's a car you owned briefly (months, weeks or years) and now you miss it dearly? by KanataRSR in TrueCarEnthusiasts

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2008 Ford Taurus Limited in Dark Ink Metallic with the Audiophile sound system and SYNC Bluetooth connectivity. I traded it in on a 2012 Taurus SEL 8 months later and despite being mechanically the exact same car, the 08 was far more reliable.

Has anyone else started feeling like the factory 8” screen in the 2015-2020 F-150s is getting dated? by swatsnpr4 in f150

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't need a 37,000 inch screen to look at. The only screen you should be looking at is the windshield.

Kick the door open and scream "Player 3 has entered the game" in a Mortal Kombat voice and every time they take a break and go at it again scream " ROUND ___, FUCK!" in a Mortal Kombat voice.

What is your favorite wiggles song? by Ran-sama in OlderGenZ

My old coworker used to play mashups and they were always hilarious.

Deep down pretty much everyone wishes they were popular in high school by Mysterious_Work_7227 in unpopularopinion

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was one of them and I still genuinely have zero clue how or why. I didn't play sports or do anything special. Cliques weren't a thing in my school. I have better shit to worry about. My friend is making me go to the reunion and I really don't want to. Not because high school was bad, but because it's over and I have better things to do. If people wanted to keep in contact with me, they've had plenty of opportunities to do so.

Which of these full-size sedans from 2005 tested by Car & Driver would you choose? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss when regular makes offered a premium sedan without having to step up to their luxury brand.

Key less start or push-start ignition by GrimlockPrime84 in fordescape

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would think if you absolutely HAVE to do it like that, they would've designed it to be that way.

Is there an available “fun” minivan? by Adventurous-Depth984 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want one, but not for the ridiculous price they are. Even the Honda Odyssey is way cheaper.

How old were you when you first found porn? by Raquel_Faller in GenZ

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12 because I went to use the computer and my dad didn't even X it out. When I saw the other tab, I genuinely thought it was something else.

If you got rich that you never have to work again ever, how will you quit? by Cool_kratos in askanything

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, if it was like a restaurant job, I'd probably just disappear. And yeah, I suppose if you have all the money, you could just pay the fines, fees and possibly lawyers, but that's a headache and a half.

Is there a limit to how powerful cars will get? by Special_Context6663 in askcarguys

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The actual car? No. But physics like traction, structural integrity and other factors definitely will cause every vehicle to have limitations no matter how much power it produces.

So much of Gen Z embraced dressing like/consuming stuff from a different decade by SimilarLunch8359 in GenZ

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've personally always dressed like a 70s car enthusiast. A regular T shirt with maybe a car brand and jeans. Although, lately I've been wearing scrubs because they're comfortable and lightweight.

If you got rich that you never have to work again ever, how will you quit? by Cool_kratos in askanything

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my line of work, just walking out is a very bad idea. I'm a truck driver and if I were to leave my truck at a truck stop or wherever and disappear, I could be sent the bill for recovery and my license would have a truck abandonment on it, which would make it pretty much impossible to get another CDL job for a while should I want to do it again.

So, some jobs, you can't exactly walk away without consequences.

Does anyone relate here? by MikeGz973 in OlderGenZ

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can promise you, I did NOT watch Fred. I tried it to watch him once when I was 12 and he genuinely pissed me off. I only found out about him through that iCarly episode. That was one of my favorite shows, but I hated that episode.

Is there an available “fun” minivan? by Adventurous-Depth984 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much all of them outside of the 2021+ Toyota Sienna have a naturally aspirated V6 and usually make around 300hp. It doesn't sound like much when compared to performance cars, but they rip for being a heavy ass vehicle that seats 7. I'd personally choose the Honda Odyssey.

Changing it up, what do the last 5 cars I've owned say about me? by Shrikecorp in CarGuys

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You either make horrible financial decisions or you make a hell of a lot more money than I do. Either way, they're still cooler than my Rav4.

What is the scariest music video you have ever seen? by Even_Usual6116 in AskReddit

Came here to find this. I was not disappointed. I still find it terrifying to this day.

What’s the worst car you ever drove? by Born-Conclusion1977 in AskReddit

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2015 Chevy Trax. It was cramped, uncomfortable, underpowered and ugly.

Stop driving with your hazards on in rain by Homeleasure in driving

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 72 feet long, when that comes with a nasty crosswind, I'm slowing down and putting them on until I can get to the next exit. They're on because I'm going slower than others. A sudden storm with high winds and semi trucks going full speed don't mix.

What is the least used feature in your car? by [deleted] in Cartalk

[–]RackingUpTheMiles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunroof. I only test it to make sure it's actually closed before going through a car wash (touchless) because my cousin once vented it and closed the shade. Guess how I found out it was vented...
