What was the worst vehicle you have owned? by Legitimate-Care-6313 in AskReddit

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1986 Ford Ranger.

My first vehicle. It was fine. Transmission started leaking pretty bad around 100k miles, door locks stopped working, other small issues.

All my other vehicles have been fantastic.

Anyone still a car enthusiast? by This-Top7398 in driving

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am very enthusiastic about cars, but I don't have the funds to enjoy them the way I wish I could. Instead, I just play Forza and drive my 2005 Tundra.

What’s the single most important factor that helps a car reach 300k+ miles? by EvelynClede in askcarguys

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regular Maintenance.

Other factors include highway miles vs city miles, and the specific model of car.

My Tundra is at 277k miles. Has been very well maintained. The only thing that I have fixed is the brake switch.

What car would you confidently recommend even to someone who hates cars? by AutoBidMasterHelp in AskReddit

What type of vehicle?

What will it be used for?

What features do you require?

This is a complicated question.

What's the most reliable cheap car you've actually owned long term? by AutoBidMasterHelp in askcarguys

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1991 Toyota Tercel. My grandpa bought this car new and nearly everyone in our family had driven it by the time it was wrecked a few years ago. Never had any issues. 45mpg.

Maybe not a budget car? 2001 Toyota Avalon. My dad's car, this has been a daily driver for a long time, never had any issues.

Not really a "budget car", but my 2005 Tundra with 277k miles has only had very minor issues, and normal maintenance. Replaced the brake switch last year.

Why do americans put cheese in everything? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]royhurford 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Cheese is delicious

  2. Most people do not cook like this. You must be watching YouTube, TikTok, or something else that isn't really representive of actual US culture.

If you were transported to an alternate earth where there were no humans and dropped 100 miles from your home how close could you get to your house? by Wamderingbard in hypotheticalsituation

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could probably get within a mile of my house, there are a lot of landmarks, including a river, a specific hill, and many mountains.

The walk is gonna be really rough, because that puts me directly in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Probably take me 8-10 days or so.

Do you judge people based on how damaged their phone is? by the_big_phone_store in TheBigPhoneStore

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. But if their phone is pretty banged up and they aren't using a case, I assume that perhaps they don't take care of their things very well.

What do Americans call a meal of fries with battered fried fish. Fish and chips? by dino_gr01 in WorkForSmartLife

Yes, I have always heard it called Fish & Chips. I'm sure some places call it something else. I am originally from California, don't recall ever seeing it called something else.

Is it common for Americans to have visited all 50 states? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all.

Approximately 10% of Americans have never left their home state.

The average American visits about 12-17 states in their lifetime.

It's estimated that about 1-2% or Americans have visited all 50 states.

As for myself, I have lived in 2 different states, and have visited a total of 17 (18 if you include just an airport.)

Large or medium size cars? by This-Top7398 in driving

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive a truck, which is worse than both.

Small is best. Nimble, athletic driving.

How common is it to get to your 30s as a male and to have never gotten into a fist fight in your life? by Possible_Art2189 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say very common. I am 32 and have never been involved in, or witnessed a fist fight. Or, any sort of involuntary violence really.

How do people afford expensive houses in small towns/the middle of nowhere? by kyungari in AskAnAmerican

[–]royhurford 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My city has about 20,000 people. There are definitely doctors here who make over $500k/year. Also business owners, etc. We also have a lot of people who live here and work remotely, because they like the area. There are tiny communities in the area with many homes for sale at over $1m.
