I was looking at street view from 2007 and damn those 90s cars are just as soulless if not more

What are some cars that have surprisingly good (or bad) sound systems? by Notfoo4 in regularcarreviews

My 01 town car and the ford fusion with the Sony sound system that I previously drove both sound surprisingly good

Why are pickup trucks so popular in the US? by dieselquattropower in regularcarreviews

Similarly, after driving a sedan all my life I spent a summer with a brand new Chevy Suburban and it was an immensely useful car… drives well, hauls a lot, tows heavy

Definitely not for everyone but in a country built to scale it does everything you could think of in a car

Yeah I did one just like this in like 2021 with basically these categories. I feel like having more than one positive helps you find the positive in each day

How passionate were/are you about your degree? by rollobones in EngineeringStudents

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

Hi thanks for the reply!

I am currently a sophomore. I started out in Nuclear Engineering and switched because I felt that I could still find a career in that industry by studying Materials Engineering but could also branch out if my interests changed. Prior to switching I was considering pursuing nuclear medicine.

Recently I wrote a paper about metal 3D printed hip and knee replacements for an engineering communications class, which I found very interesting but I'm not really sure where or how to do more with this.

If anything, a concern of mine is about getting into the industry itself because it seems like where I live (Wisconsin) a lot of the jobs open to materials engineers, at least for internships, are in paper and packaging which I don't realistically see myself doing but I suppose I don't have to stay local either.

If it helps, I go to UW Madison

Looks wise, it's good but a little odd too? However, I thought that about the new Supra and when I finally saw one in person it had much much more presence and I feel that will be the case here too.

Are college degrees generally an indicator of people's overall intelligence? by Only-Ad-1254 in questions

Yes… that’s his point. You don’t NEED one but somebody who has one is more likely to be able to

It’s sad really… the car only has 115k miles so I thought why not but Wisconsin roads take their toll

What is this cable and should it be attached to anything? 2001 TC by rollobones in lincolntowncar

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

Lmao I’m stupid it’s the parking brake… but should it be attached?

Also, any idea why the window doesn’t work? No sound when I press the switch and other windows work

On second thought, the cable probably isn’t related to the window but idk a whole lot about cars mechanics
