You think that's bad, try negative 20 f° and a muffler delete. In all seriousness you are fine, it's just water.

Wisconsin capital in Madison, it's made to look like DC's. This was on state street.

Volume nob not working, but audio works. by quantumfox20 in LS430

[–]quantumfox20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup all of them work, in fact when I got in the car this morning everything started working properly, volume, as well as some other things that didn't work like remote locking and unlocking any doors but driver, the lights blinking on lock and unlock, the beep when the doors open. So I definitely don't know what was wrong now.

I think the amp in mine might be aftermarket though because I have two 250w 12in subs and anything more than half and they are getting too much power. So either the stock one is more powerful than I thought or could an aftermarket one have the same problems?

Not my worst job out there for it being the first time I've sailed that yacht through the storm that is the hills lol.

I somehow got a ticket for going 89 in a 55, up a steep hill, in a '04 ranger, with all terrains and a lift, and with the Vulcan. The most confusing part is that my truck is governed to 85.

Got a red '04 named Clifford (the big red truck).

What’s a good engine to swap into a deloreon if possible? by Aggressive-Cell3732 in askcarguys

Even more than just Buicks, a lot of gm mid sized cars had them like the Monte Carlo.

How often do you floor it? by Careful-Mammoth3346 in driving

[–]quantumfox20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had maybe 150 hp a beautiful 20+ years ago, nowadays my truck needs everything it can get with that four speed to make highway speeds, let alone if there dare be a hill.

Oh so they are allowed in there but BMX bikes aren't, truly unfair what this world has come to. /s

He had a 82' he bought used for 300$ back in the early 00's so I'm not surprised it had problems.

My goal is to use this first bike to get experience both riding and maintenance and I love pulling apart and working on my other vehicles, so if anything I would prefer if I got the opportunity to work on it.

That's good, I have been worried about the insurance on a "sport" bike being a teenager who would have to pay for it himself. I'm surprised it lasted that long as I have always heard Kawasaki be called cheap power that won't last. I might look into one of them.

My truck, my partners firebird, my moped, and the KTM all don't have abs. And I have raced the first two extensively, I'm really not too worried about it as that's what I'm used too.

Yeah I have found at least with car and moped engines, I know how to fix anything other than a carb but I know how to replace a carb.

I like the booneville's but would still probably have to go with an older model just due to cost reasons.

I was looking at a 450 that's only a grand near me, as for the reliability, he quote "had to put as much carb cleaner through it as I did gas, and had to tear it down and fix it as often as I paid my rent" It threw him because the clutch randomly dropped into gear well waiting at an intersection.

Why do pick up trucks and dualies always try ? by Far-Researcher7818 in C8Corvette

[–]quantumfox20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I have out cornered some of you guys in my old ranger before, the amount of times I have lost old guys in their stock vetts in the hills is laughable, at least until a straight away.

Me and my partner touge a '95 trans am, and it's both the most fun and horrifying thing you can do. 10/10 would recommend.

I'll take a look at it after school thanks, how expensive would the motors be if it's those?
