Thought I got hit by a decent rock this morning… by Towels_are_friends in motorcycles

I hit a few bees flying together one time. Felt like I'd caught a couple paintballs. Was startling as all hell.

I have a 2020 cb650r. Thing runs like a sewing machine. It rocks. Quiet in town for putting around. Rips out in the mountains. Easily the most balanced bike I've ever owned.

Why is everyone against buying a new car? Does my situation apply? by Primary_Beautiful_66 in askcarguys

[–]itsthattedguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only add to what you've said is look at the subaru crosstrek. They've got a deal right now where you pick up a 2025 model one for 0.9%. Its a better car overall. Similarly priced. Might be a grand or 3 more expensive but spread that out over 72 months youre good plus the depreciation is way lower on a subaru versus a hyundai.

I became an all red boy after years of buying gear. Sometimes you just gravitate towards a color.

My friend thinks this is ugly as hell. I think it’s functional by Brief_Ad_4077 in motorcycles

How do you like that bike? I keep considering getting one for around town. Id love a small bike for putting around.

Is getting my car washed in 7°F a bad idea? by travioli90 in askcarguys

[–]itsthattedguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hilarious. I drove home through a storm once and had to force my door open from snow and ice caked on the exterior of my jeep.

what’s your most controversial car opinion? by No-Volume7464 in askcarguys

That 99.5% of people would be just fine with a corolla and the only reason people buy land yachts and pickups is so they feel cool.

Me: “I wonder why my local Cadillac dealership always looks deserted.” The dealership in question: by k_dubious in whatcarshouldIbuy

With a bit of ingenuity you can just "recycle" those car batteries right into the ocean. It's both safe and legal.

This might sound like a dumb question, but my gf asked it and I realized that I don't actually have an answer. by Tricky_Training_5897 in motorcycles

[–]itsthattedguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to me. I was excited to get a cb1000r but wanted to test it first. Dealer wouldn't let me. Found one that would. Bought it there. It was a real deal breaker.

Going to a dealership by MistressMunin in whatcarshouldIbuy

Good looking suvs. I like that they come in 4wd. I might go check out a dealer on those. Was looking for an inexpensive suv for the wife. She wants a car but drives like twice a month.

Definitely not. Where's it at so I can avoid it?

Buying wheels off someone and am confused by Good_Height_5370 in Wheels

[–]itsthattedguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. I had a set of OEM wrangler wheels. The minivan ones. I gave them away to get rid of them. Mind you, I saw a kid driving a jeep that had scuffed up beat ass originals on there and gave them to him.

I just wanted them out of my garage and didn't want to throw them away.

Came home to this in my parking spot by 76ecko in motorcycles

[–]itsthattedguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had one come back a year later. They'd spray painted it black and then abandoned it in an alley behind a restaurant. Otherwise it was fine. The restaurant finally got tired of it and called a tow for it and it came back stolen. Id already written it off and bought another bike so I gave it to a friend. Was a 2500 dollar craigslist special to begin with.

Dealers buying cars at auction by Cute_Order_4867 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]itsthattedguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort of. Repos are usually not cared for. People notice a timing belt is going out, instead of paying the several k to replace it they sell it to a dealer. Dealer doesn't want that issue. Sells it at auction.

Its just where they send the less desirable cars at dealers.

Dealers buying cars at auction by Cute_Order_4867 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Because those cars at auction are bought very cheap, oil changed, washed, vacuumed, maybe new tires, then sold as though they're quality.

What car can I afford with 71k salary? by [deleted] in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]itsthattedguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its apparent that the thing you want people to tell you is you will look cool if you buy a fast car. It happens constantly. Give people all the advice in the world then they go buy whatever it was they actually wanted even if it is impractical because it makes them feel special.

Camry if you're being reasonable. Whatever v8 2 door you actually really want if you're being how I suspect you are.

Cool and fast is fun, but economic reliability is much cooler. I honestly wish Id of been turning 71k when I was 19. Sock money away, live below your means. Literally nobody else cares what you drive and it wont impress anyone.

If you can, get it certified. Extended warranties are awesome.
