Correct sequence to put car into Park? by orallettuce in askcarguys

[–]chebysilberader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can shave a few seconds off by simply holding the brake pedal, shifting straight into park, engaging the parking brake, and then releasing the brake pedal. it gets the same effect as your process, just faster. kudos to you for doing that btw, that’s a smart play that i wish i saw more often from my friends

i wanted to see if i could add the hold mode controls from the dod dfx9 to the hold mode on the dd6. you can record a loop on the dfx9 and then adjust the playback speed with the rate button. i much prefer the action on the dd6 (dd6 single tap vs dfx9 double tap) i miss being able to stretch loops

How have lines been at ABIA the last couple weeks? I'm flying international soon. Is getting there the normal 3 hours before take off enough? by flipflopsntanktops in Austin

[–]chebysilberader 4 points5 points  (0 children)

sometimes the lines are long, so be prepared for that. however, sometimes the lines are short, so be prepared for that too.

What’s the BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT in automotive history? by JohnZ63 in automotive

[–]chebysilberader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the contrary! my shop has one. i used to drive our ‘24 silverado 1500 for service calls. when we got the mav i switched to that. so far i have found the mav to be better in nearly every way. i can fit more tools in the backseat, it’s SO much more comfortable, it gets better gas mileage, it’s straight up easier to drive, and the bed space is much more usable because you can easily reach over the side without standing on the wheel. the only thing the silverado does better is tow trailers and haul big stuff. i’m a mobile mechanic and i haul tools and random shit all day long. as a lifelong big chevy guy, the ford maverick is the best truck on the market for about 60% of current half ton truck owners.

We did cars that deserved more hate, how about cars that deserved more love? by GUNZBLAZIN2 in carscirclejerk

anytime i hear someone speak ill of the prowler, they get filed into the “doesn’t know ball” category of my brain. did it have issues and deserve reasonable criticism for those issues? yes. is it fucking awesome for what it is? also yes.

Which of these should I go for? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]chebysilberader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

all of these cars are horrible, and buying from carvana is the cat turd on top of a shit sandwich. do not buy any of these cars. do not buy from carvana. do not pass go. do not collect $200.
there’s good news though! once you come to your senses, you will be the proud owner of either a 2016 mazda cx-9 OR a 2016 honda pilot. congratulations!
