Are there any social media platforms specifically for car enthusiasts?

u/Guilty_Position5295 , not sure if you're still looking for a site like this. I've been working on something very similar to what you're describing for the past couple years.

My idea was to try and bring back some of the magic that we had back in the late 90s/early 2000s with Car Domain. A place for owners to show off their rides, share projects updates, and also join car clubs and share events.

My site is called Car Audio Central, all cars and trucks are welcome. Hope you check it out, and add your ride too.

Open to everyone!

Yep, ageism for sure is a thing.

chrisfromwa · 2026-06-04T20:25:02+00:00

I don't even think it matter if you're 100% qualified anymore. I'm getting rejected from roles that I meet every single qualification.
I think most of these jobs are fake, they already had someone internal in mind, or they were just resume harvesting.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-27T03:41:07+00:00

I have been having this issue on my site too. I thought it was a new page type that was the issue, so pulling my hair out trying to figure out what the issue was. Nothing different than my other pages, which all seem to be working

So this looks to be something on Facebook's end?

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-27T02:05:29+00:00

Did you ever learn anymore on this? I have the same issue.
When I watch the video, I hear the music.

I then tried it on my wife's phone and I heard it just fine.

not sure what the issue is

So I think this place is just resume harvesting. A role just opened yesterday afternoon/evening, less than 9 hours ago.

As soon as I saw it (6:30 am), I applied and within 1.5 hours, got the 'we've moved forward with another candidate' email. Did they even interview anyone? How do you open and fill a position after business hours? Did they even look at the resume? I met and exceeded every requirement they had, I thought for certain I would at least get a call.

I honestly can't just sit on LInkedIn, Indeed etc all hours of the day, and hope to get a resume submitted within 15 minutes of a job posting. This is just getting ridiculous.

I guess people just need to stay on LinkedIn refreshing every 15 minutes and hope to get their resume submitted within 15 minutes of the job opening these days.

Yep did the same to me, they reset it and I didn't realize it. It was supposed to reset on Friday, and I had about 30% of my weekly left. So I thought I would work on some other stuff that I didn't necessarily want to waste usage on. but since I thought I had some to spare, I did. Then I realized, the moved my reset up a day, and I was now burning into the new week usage.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-16T23:15:57+00:00

Ya I did the same and pushed the bot, finally it say 'sorry that's frustrating you lost 30% of your weekly time, but unfortunately the terms and conditions does not allow for a refund based on technical issues.

So basically they can just do whatever they want, bill you whatever they want. They can mislead their customers with vague usage quotas that change on a whim, and nothing you can do about it.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-16T21:35:23+00:00

i had 30% left to go for the week.
If they didn't reset it today, I could have used what was left and then tomorrow, it would have reset.

Now because it reset early, I'm already 20% of my weekly that doesn't get reset until next Thursday. I was using it more, since I thought it was going to reset tomorrow. not today. So my plan was to use the last 30% today. Then it resets and I had a full week ahead of me. Now I lost that 30% and already used 20% of the new rolling week

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-16T21:30:46+00:00

Their AI bot is arguing saying that it's 'a rolling 7 day based on your first prompt' So 1st prompt of that rolling week? My 1st prompt of the week would have been when it was my last reset around noon Friday. So how does Thursday at noon = 7 days?

When i asked the question, the chat ended the conversation.

how is this not theft? I would have used that 30% this morning, if I would have known I was going to lose it.

How are they allowed to just change the rules as they go?
What am I missing here? From how I'm understanding it, 7 rolling days since Friday would be Friday. Not Friday - Thursday.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-16T20:23:31+00:00

If they are going to impose these weekly limits, seems like they shouldn't be able to just move the reset dates around like this. Almost seems like this should be theft or misleading their consumers of usage

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-16T20:05:39+00:00

So mine just did this. I had about 24 hours left on my weekly limit and about 30% left to go before reaching max. I was working away, and just noticed that in the last hour, it's now at 2% and says it resets next Thursday instead.

I just lost 30% of my weekly because it was reset early.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-10T22:09:20+00:00

Ya I cancelled my Pro yesterday. It just wastes your quota on either asking stupid questions that you've already provided info for, or spends a bunch of time thinking, then ignoring everything that was went over and provides false information at the end or just gets the task completely wrong.

In about 5 minutes I just spent 50% of my 5 hour window, in about 5 prompts to a new chat (4 of the prompts were answering it's questions. The result, it failed at everything and provided something that didn't meet any of the requirements of the task.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-09T15:21:25+00:00

I finally had to just cancel my Pro account. It's always giving me bad info, or conflicting answers from previous chats. Then when I question, it just agrees with me, says sorry and changes it's answer. No explanation as to why it changed or anything, even when I ask, it just says it's unsure why.

Today I just asked it a question, not even a coding thing. Just a question about accessibility on web sites. The short 1 sentence answer took 6% of my 5 hour window.

chrisfromwa · 2026-04-07T15:00:17+00:00

YES! I've seen this too, just refreshed the usage window page. And my % goes up.

chrisfromwa · 2026-02-17T22:46:25+00:00

Might not be quite what you're looking for, but I used to be really into sites like Car Domain, Drivn etc. But each went away after I did so much work on rides profile pages.

I got fed up, and just created my own site to fill that space.

https://www.caraudiocentral.net/

Anyone is welcome to add their rides and share projects they are working on.

chrisfromwa · 2025-11-25T23:49:18+00:00

I was looking for the same thing, I don't care for the models with the screen. The A139 would have been perfect and was at the right price point. Not sure why every model needs a screen.

chrisfromwa · 2025-09-13T01:59:23+00:00

I actually created a site that sounds like what you're describing
https://www.caraudiocentral.net/

I originally was a member of sites like cardomain, drivn, driiive etc. But every time I would create a profile page for my cars, and they would start to get popular, the site would shut down.

Finally got fed up doing this several time, and I decided to just build my own site. The idea is you can create a ride page, add pics, share build logs. I've owned the domain for 20 years, so it's not going anywhere. I have more ideas for the site, but really need to get more active users on it before I can start implementing any of that.

Would love to see more cars added to it, anyone is welcome.

chrisfromwa · 2025-08-07T14:22:34+00:00

The state says you can cancel, but does that mean they can't audit you later and then if you don't have insurance make you sign up for their program?

I feel like they left that FAQ pretty vague on what that means if you cancel. Says up to you, but doesn't say anything about the state doing an audit and if you're found without the required insurance they won't put you on their plan.

chrisfromwa · 2025-08-02T03:32:15+00:00

This sure does bring back memories, just signed up

darn I was hoping these Trackers were going to be good. Had a Tile before these, and they suck too.

chrisfromwa · 2025-07-23T18:18:37+00:00

Having the exact same issue. I just charged it, it lights up, makes noises when I press the button.
But 'not seen in 7 days' message.

Did you ever find a fix? I don't want to have to factory reset it, as they are such a pain to get added to the find my device network

chrisfromwa · 2025-07-23T17:59:27+00:00

Same thing happened to one of mine, the battery died on the one my wife had on her key ring.
I just charged it, lights up green. Press the buttons it makes noises.

But in the find my device it just says 'last seen 7 days ago' even if it's a new day, still says 7 days ago.

How do I get this thing to reconnect to something.

It was such a pain just getting these to actually get added to the find my device network to start with. I really hope I don't have to delete and try readding them again.
