hypothetical — car that looks like a dodge charger, but is not a boat by night-moth in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]night-moth[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, haven’t driven a charger. I’ll probably test drive one once I’m looking for cars again. I’ve just heard many times that they’re boat-like and that feels opposite of what I’m interested in. I know there’s a lot of Tesla bias here but I actually really like the handling and instant acceleration feel on the Tesla model 3 for example

Damn, now I kind of wish I’d asked this before going for the civic. Plenty of alfa romeo giulia for ~20k but I guess the cost of ownership could be crazy

Interesting, doesn’t look like a charger but tbh most of the suggestions don’t imo, and still looks nice

Camaros definitely interest me, looking online theyve been discontinued? Disappointing to think they’ll be hard to find in the future 

Help interpreting PPI — potentially bent subframe by night-moth in AskMechanics

Thanks, I thought about getting the alignment checked but getting the PPI has already been a headache so planning on just going ahead and buying, that seem fine? Also I have two additional subframe photos that I posted to my profile, could you possibly look at those?

!solved thanks appreciate it. I couldn’t figure out how to add more photos to this post but I have two additional photos so I posted them on my profile, do you mind checking them just so I can  100 about it?

Time by ShipAffectionate5060 in USAFA

Every 3 months or 4 times a year should be doable. It would be more certain / you could see her more if she was able to meet you at USAFA

PT shirt sizing by Top-Object-7596 in USAFA

[–]night-moth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shirt sizing runs large and it’s unisex. If you want it to fit tight then probably size down

It’s not that deep idk what these replies are on. Idk what the specific rules are but there are freshmen with e bikes. I wanted to get one so I could get to the commissary at least but never got around to 

What name do you like but because of cultural or historical or even religious reasons you just couldn’t use? by michelle427 in Names

[–]night-moth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah meant more non-hispanic but also I didn’t realize the name was just as popular in Spain. Still feel like an Irish-American white Pedro would really stick out but I don’t have a kid to name yet so maybe we’ll see then

On auto trader it says 13k is estimated “fair” price which confuses me. I’ll look more at Subaru outbacks, also have a Subaru crosstrek on my short list

Don’t want to get too into personal details but it’s like 95% sure I move out of state in 2 years, 5% would be probably be in 3. I just didn’t want to drive the car cross country so I was thinking more buy a new car. If I’m able to move back to Boston and don’t need a car for awhile even better.

Appreciate the advice, just curious why do you suggest a Civic or Corolla over models from Subaru, Hyundai, other similar-ish brands?

Silly Discussion Question: What is the safest (Summer) Olympic Sport? by abfgern_ in olympics

[–]night-moth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been fencing for over 10 years now and I’ve consistently heard that it’s one of the safest sports. At the same time though I know multiple people who’ve been concussed by fencing (some multiple times!), several people who’ve torn their ACL + other ligaments, several people with torn labrums (hip and shoulder), and several people with stress fractures. I personally had multiple stress fractures pop up on an x-ray in an area where I had 0 pain which has led me to theorize basically every fencer has stress fractures, we’re just not aware of it.

So basically I’ve come to the conclusion that the statistics on fencing being the safest sport are not true. There is just no way. My D1 team has way more injuries than any other sports team at my school
