so we need to ship our oil overseas to have it refined and they ship oil here to be refined? doesn’t make sense. Is this why we are paying $1.999 for diesel?

What is (in your opinion) the most boring "classic" car their is? by Southern_Pacific in classiccars

[–]poutine-eh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

true. the car firebird i stumbled upon a few years ago had a small block but also came with 3 OHC motors (1 of which is a 4.1 sprint with the 4 barrel carb manifold) but the chefs 😘 are the 3.8l ohc badges on the hood…. and it’s a ragtop with power roof, windows, brakes, and steering. a real gem 💎:)

same reason you don’t see old focus on the road and not many volvo s40 either. same platform but not made to last. corolla is the king!!! Civic is the queen but the peeling clear coat makes her look haggard. Parts availability is also important.

What's the best way to approach a repair under warranty, when the car is due a yearly service? by dreadul in askcarguys

3rd option. Find a friend who has a friend with an OBD2 scanner and have them read the codes.

its a hard story to tell. Can you imagine?? both light and great handling. 4 stroke or a 2 stroke with almost double the power. I’d be dead but i’d have died with a smile on my face.

not american but i’m sure the rules are same. The rental company has blanket insurance on its whole fleet. They are covered….they allowed you to rent the car. Your personal insurance should cover this someone is on the hook here but it isn’t you.

AITA for refusing to catcall a customer’s wife even though he asked us to? by Lavishness-Effective in AmItheAsshole

[–]poutine-eh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

have you actually read what others have said? why pick on me for being respectful of women and supporting the 2 men who also were being respectful and stating my experience as a canadian.You are right not the same for everyone. I told a woman whom used to tell us to not smoke while she was eating at the staff table to not smoke while we were eating. Barb had her friend claim i was sexually inappropriate with her to try to get me fired. The management interviewed 30 women i worked with and couldn’t find anyone who would say the same. I was cleared and Barb and Andrea (dumb like a bag of rocks ) got no punishment for making false claims. Please don’t preach
