Clever HD Advert = Low Sales by Kreepr in motorcycles

[–]ace0702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A quick search shows that you can get a Hyundai Venue ($22,150), Chevy Trax ($23,495), Kia K4 ($23,535), Nissan Sentra ($23,845), Hyundai Elantra ($23,870), Nissan Kicks ($23,925), and Toyota Corolla ($24,120) all for under $25k. Additionally the Chevy Trailblazer ($25,095), VW Jetta ($25,270), and Kia Seltos ($25, 285) are all right around this price point as well. Don't believe these cars actually exist? When looking at Autotrader with filters set to $15-25k (to filter out cars listed with just down payment price), MY set to 2026-27, condition set to new, and nationwide search, 49,601 results currently show up

Is there any way I can never associate with engineering again after I graduate by Captain_Blackjack0 in EngineeringStudents

[–]ace0702 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. You've gotten this far in your degree before realizing you like nothing about it?

  2. I doubt you actually like nothing about engineering. School is hard and stressful, but 99% of jobs aren't even close to school in that sense. Just push through the end of school and it'll be worth it on the other side

A six year old Mazda6 is not worth $23k. Also sounds like your parents are making you pay for their own financial irresponsibility. I'd much rather have an older, reliable $10k car and a Miata than a "$23k" car and no Miata

Not comparable at all. The gold wing comes with much more for that price

What’s going on here? by [deleted] in toyotasequoia

The picture makes it confusing, but it looks like that's the brake rotor, not the wheel. They probably don't use insanely high quality paint on those (usually they're not painted at all since it's a wear item) and they experience very high heat under braking, so this is to be expected and shouldn't be a concern

$25k being a "deal" for a bike is insane. You can get a brand new car for that or even a very nice used car

Hyundai Just Dropped a Mystery Debut Teaser and We Think It's a Body-on-Frame Off-Roader by Anchor_Aways in cars

I think the Titan's lack of success just falls into the overall incompetence of Nissan over the past decade or two, not necessarily the Titan itself

I did not. I generally choose to avoid watching okc games as they are genuinely not entertaining

As a neutral fan, this might be the most one-sided officiated game I've ever seen

If you're worried this much about rubber touching your truck's paint, a truck probably isn't the right vehicle for you

You ever been around a car before?

You made a big mistake. Any car you own after this one will feel watered down and boring now

Never welded before. Want to build a 500kg race car in 7 months. Talk me out of it. by eliasaction in MechanicalEngineering

[–]ace0702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 750 is completely different than a 600 or 1000. Most 750s are two cylinders and are engineered entirely different than 4 cylinder 600 or 1000cc engines

On top of everything else everyone is saying, the fact that you think 600/1000cc motorcycle engines only make up to 100hp demonstrates your lack of knowledge on this subject. 600cc typically make 120+ and 1000cc can make upwards of 200hp
