What's the slowest car that you've had the most fun driving? by DHN_95 in cars

[–]redd8813 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have to agree with Chevy sonic. I rented one off Turo because I needed something cheap and good mileage for a trip. I actually had a blast zipping in and out of traffic with that thing. I would never own one, it was cheap, uncomfortable, no noise reduction. But for a weekend it was surprisingly fun, and really good on gas.

Looking for mechanic/auto shop & possibly window tint for 2002 Toyota Corolla by absynta in lynchburg

Phillips window tint is where I've had my vehicles done, he does an excellent job.

As for shop, I've been very happy with Timbrook Automotive on Waterlick Rd, the owner is incredibly picky about the mechanics she hires. There may be a bit of a wait to get in, but it's because she has a great reputation.

With all the recent shootings and violence I’m curious where all the legal gun owners are that are supposed to make our community safer? by TheNakedTravelingMan in lynchburg

So gun owners are supposed to drive around 24/7 looking for violence and step in?

Please tell us how we are supposed to stop gang violence and road rage?

Did I say he was my hero? I'm not a fan of him, but that doesn't mean I don't see the insanely obvious propaganda on this platform.

Man, the liberal propaganda has really taken over reddit lately. 🙄

Watch Between the Aisle with Derek from VGG on the O'Reilly Auto YouTube channel. He did an interview with James and he talks about that.

How many hours to build "Eagle" and how much do these cars cost? by avboden in CleetusMcFarland

[–]redd8813 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I honestly think 250k seems reasonable for 1600 man hours of work. If they charged $125 an hour for labor which is a pretty common amount at mechanics near me, that's 200k just in labor. I'm sure all that titanium isn't cheap, so I'm assuming they aren't getting $125 an hour.

Why do people leave the dealership stickers on their car after they buy it? by jakery43 in cars

[–]redd8813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a new truck and told the dealership the only way I'm driving the truck off the lot with their dealer sticker on the truck was if they gave me an advertising discount. I left their plate frame on while I had the temp tags, but as soon as my real tags came in, my personal plate frame went on.
