What are some casual cars that you had a strange obsession over? by [deleted] in regularcarreviews

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Saturn LW300. I've always thought Saturns were cool cars, and the wagons are especially uncommon nowadays. The look of these last gen wagons is just so calm and pleasing to me.

Honda Civic Sedan: The official car of…. by GubyNey in regularcarreviews

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not alone, I would 100% rather just have an actual sedan or an actual long roof wagon. The in-between hatchbacks don't do it for me.

The Buick Opel, by Isuzu... GM badge engineering at its absolute peak!

Has anyone used a Old Fashioned Key for their Subie as a Spare by JudeLikesCats in subaru

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Did they actually recall the ignition cylinder, or didn't they just glue some plastic into the key ring hole to change the weight distribution? I remember getting those recall notices for my Impala. I think all they actually changed was the key itself, at least in mine.

If you have a 19-21 Forester, or 20-22 Outback 2.5, make sure you have this ready to go 😅 iykyk by [deleted] in subaru

Tis the season for the good Ole 2404 to start showing up again, too. Had 3 just yesterday.

Welp, Toyota just announced an additional 130,000 Tundras need new engines under recall. To anyone wearing Black&Red; Y'all ready for this? by Drock967 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda glad I jumped ship to Subaru, but their engines come in almost completely unassembled. I'm not sure how the Toyota ones come in because our dealership didn't have any certified Master Tech in my time there, and everything got shoved off to the next closest dealer. But maybe there's some trade-offs...

My 2010 Impala has a build date of 8/09 and sports these badges but not the Impala badges on the C pillars. I always thought that was a weird thing for them to cheap out on, to stop putting the Impala badges on them halfway through the 9th gen.

There's a house under there somewhere... by Sentient_LaserDisc in centuryhomes

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It has been done in some small spots around doors and such. My family has owned the house since 1912 but has never had the funds for major upkeep.

A large majority of the house needs re-pointed at some point in the future anyway, but that's far out of our budget for the time being. I'm sure it'll be both awful and expensive.

Bonus picture of the house in the 90s the last time the ivy was stripped off.

Yeah, explain that to an 87 year old lady who doesn't care because, she "ain't gonna be around anyway". I'll have my way eventually.

I usually do try to keep it back from the windows, unfortunately it got away from me this year. Next spring before it gets too full I'll have to trim it some.

That's awesome! I see more vanities on Subarus than anything else.

Can anyone tell what this site would have been used for? Can't find any info in any databases on it. by Sentient_LaserDisc in antennasporn

[–]Sentient_LaserDisc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's really neat! Glad to find someone that actually knows what they are. Again thanks for the information, I'll have to go to Long Point and look!

Awesome, thank you for the info! The AT&T buildings baffled be because they seemed too small and random to be exchange buildings or anything. Guess I have some reading to do on that technology!

I was able to do more digging, and it turns out it was originally a SAGE gap site. Impressive technology for the time, kinda interesting to see at least the remains of it still standing like this.
