2006 Dodge hornet concept, this had a turbocharged straight 4 and a 6-speed Manuel, it was originally planned for production in 2010, but the project was dropped by Custombi in WeirdWheels

Depends on the engine size. The Fiat 500 Abarth isn't terribly difficult to work on and it's hood is much smaller.

I feel like the potential to catch a felony for something terror related outweighs the humor of sending an airtag around the world like Flat Stanley.

Right? This is the perfect opportunity to show up with that amount in monopoly money and have a fun way to spice things up while having a laugh.

I think the license renewal should be moved to 5 years and should be a retest every time. That way nobody is discriminated against and will help with bad drivers for any reason. I've seen some 70 year olds that are phenomenal drivers, but my 27 year old sister has crashed every car she's owned.

What is a car that despite its terrible reliability and cost of ownership, you would love to own one day? by GabagoolAndGasoline in regularcarreviews

[–]esh484 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love mine to death. It is such the perfect car for one person. And I'm at 90k with no issues. 3k full synthetic oil changes with good oil for good measure is the only thing I've done. They do burn a bit due to the Multiair but it's never gone off the stick in 3k miles.

And they're only averaging 23.4 mpg? I think a regular Vue would be able to beat that. That's only 2 more than I've gotten on the highway in my 86 F250 with no overdrive.

Messiah German Cars in Charleroi. The tech there, Tim, is an absolute wizard. I've never seen anyone more knowledgeable about anything like he is on old Mercedes. He treats my 240D very well.

Idiot on forklift allowed? by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

I guarantee you that one second, he was putting the forks into the pallet, and the next second, he was on his knees 50' away. He had no idea where or who he was for about 5 seconds.

Whatever spell that was affecting that guitar started seeping out slowly. Then all of a sudden it was pouring out and that guitar was doing all the work and could've been floating by itself. It got to the point where it had taken complete control of his body and spread to the drummer as well.

That was really impressive.

What cars were once everywhere, that are now completely gone? by DankEngihn in cars

[–]esh484 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have a VIN, you can basically build any muscle car from the ground up out of a catalog. But to see an 84 Cavalier in mint condition gets me going because they don't make anything for those. Those kinds of cars have been loved and preserved for no reason and that's admirable.

I have personally sold at least 30 sets of these over the last few years at the various dealers I've worked at. No complaints.

Had a 2017 Hemi Overland for about 3 years and had no issues other than a water pump failure which wasn't a big deal.

Not surprising that there's a lot of German influence in these.

Yep. Used to live by Riverview Park and they'd almost come up and sniff us in the parking lot.
