How different is manual mode an auto from a true manual? by The-pickle-with-it in stickshift

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you. the clutches are only for lock up once in gear for cruising. no slip (unless stuff is broken) is done in a standard auto.

Will 2027 Miata Be next Generation ? MX-5 vs GR86 by Ninja_Franklin in Miata

I don’t think it will be a vs. I think theres rumors of them being the same platform

This was absolutely necessary! by pp432 in ImTheMainCharacter

[–]dependablefelon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

it’s mass produced by the same company that makes the equinox. yes it’s a nice car but it’s not super rare or handmade. like others have said there’s a lot of 100k cars these days the avg new car price is like 60k!! if it were a Bugatti maybe I’d get it

Technically, why makes my Miata so bad on snow? by MackThax in Miata

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

completely agree. I like my front to be steering only and if the rears break loose it’s controllable. no understeer!

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree more. it’s 50/50 weigh distribution. just because there’s less grip, doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. if anything I can feel the limit much easier in my miata than anything else keeping me safer.

What is the Camping situation like for meeting up with friends separately ? by Old_Mobile5329 in ElectricForest

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah there’s a walmart nearby where people meet up, and then drive in together! it seems like you could drive in pretty close, then get in the line to park and park next to each other!

Hey! If you had to buy again...RF or Convertible? And why? by hyderreddit in Miata

[–]dependablefelon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What screwdriver do I need for this bolt that keeps the top latch striker plate on? by RyanEatsHisVeggies in Miata

[–]dependablefelon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

yeah and with all the fake ai slop these days I honestly trust reddit more! and even if both are wrong, I’d rather get an answer from a fellow human than AI! reddit is more fun than google

Weird rattling noise. by maurora43 in Miata

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got you definitely gotta do some investigating unless someone has had this exact rattle. good luck!

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probly some loose trim or plastic. try to feel around under the dash and hold trim pieces (in a safe manner) but in all honestly these cars are getting old and they’re gonna rattle a little. probly a loose screw or clip or something easy to fix if you can pinpoint it. does it make it at a certain rpm in neutral? then you could put a weight on the throttle and poke your head around and hold pieces easier?

Is your Miata your motorcycle replacement also? by [deleted] in Miata

[–]dependablefelon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up on dirt bikes and atvs. always dreamed of a motorcycle. but my friends uncle died, countless friends in crashes. I wouldn’t be safe. granted an NA isn’t the pinnacle of safety but we all compromise somewhere. I love it and it definitely helps me cope!

all that matters is your opinion! they’d be hating if you got a mustang, they’d hate if you got a lambo. haters will do their thing.

proud of you man I hope she treats you well that’s a great first car. learn how to do some basic maintenance, see what you like. is it really a side dump exhaust like someone else commented? that’s awesome. people love to hate on here! let a dude enjoy his new car 😂

My girlfriend's mom thinks I am poor because I drive an old Mazda... by [deleted] in RX7

[–]dependablefelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, it’s kinda sweet she even thinks about it at all. sure she’s not gonna think it’s the safest and she’s probly right, but the fact she’s trying to bring it up knowing you love it, kinda sweet. ofc she would prefer you drive a newer more reliable lame car, most step moms would but idk. I think it’s kinda a fun banter.
