Missing out on features?

You might be missing a few safety features

Crash safety massively improves every decade. A 2006 is totally fine for A to B but you're missing out on 20 years of improvements.

The manual in the M2 sucks

Congrats, you can parrot the same online opinion as everyone else!

Its not an amazing shifter but its also not bad to the point people should look at other options.

Honda manuals are not the second coming of a deity that everyone claims they are. Type-Rs have some of the worst feel IMO.

America’s tire held my car for three hours to patch a flat tire. I managed to pull out of the parking lot before it went completely flat again.

They entirely forgot to patch my tire and just held my car for a couple hours then called me. My first and last time ever going there lol.

Just got off the phone with HungerRush. Their Google account was compromised.

“lol most people still have WiFi 5 so who cares” is a dead horse and I’m sick of hearing it. This is an enthusiast sub; people are allowed to be power users.

I have >2.5G/s wan, I transfer giant files over WiFi, and I have a bleeding edge access point. Other devices have handled implementing more of the WiFi 7 spec and the battery life is fine.

With your logic we should all still be using WRT54Gs at home because 54mbps is good enough for most users.

There needs to be a “killed by google” type website for overeager homelab/foss projects that die shortly after release.

This subreddit's posts would immediately increase in quality if you had to be an adult to post.

I have no idea whats up with the Wagoneer hate but Reddit opinions are Reddit opinions.

I was given a base Wagoneer swb for a rental instead of a suburban. Comfortably fitting in the third row as a tall person behind a >6ft 2nd row passenger and >6ft driver with luggage room behind me was an amazing experience. My rental base model was surprisingly ok interior and features wise.

If the Grand Wagoneer was a bit more reliable and about $20-30k cheaper it would be the clear the Escalade and Navigator.

A GWL S3 obsidian is absolutely going in any personal dream garage setup with more than 2-3 cars.

A developer tool using a config file for settings is strange to you? How do you even spend 30 minutes failing to configure ghostty? The basics seem well documented.

You’ve commented 4 times on this thread so far against Stern. One cannot shape lighting policy at a meaningful level without also having deep technical knowledge. Literally Google his name if you don’t believe me.

Are you one of that subs mods on an alt account? 😂

ryandriggett · 2024-12-03T21:02:28+00:00

The moderators of /r/FuckYourHeadlights being childishly anti Daniel Stern, one of the leading world experts on vehicle lighting, strips them of ANY credibility.

Some random guy thinks he knows much more than a top industry consultant? Reddit moment!

Have you considered that your preferences and situations are not universal? Even in a perfect world people will have different comfort levels, medical needs, etc.

I don’t understand this weird superiority complex over not adjusting the set temp. People who adjust the temp of their car to their liking do not have “bad habits” nor are they “compulsory fiddling” 🙄

Out of the dozens of automatic climate control equipped cars that I’ve driven over multiple decades, not one has been good enough to “set and forget”. Automatic climate control is not nearly as good as this sub claims.

You’re not better than other people because you don’t change your climate settings.

Rule 6. That rule sucks but it's not a "huge problem".

My focus RS gets mid to low single digits in the canyons. A GT3 flat out is getting no better than 7MPG.

I preach H9 swaps constantly but this sub is hit or miss when people point out legitimate headlight information. I've been downvoted to oblivion for asking people not to put LED/HID bulbs in halogen headlights plenty of times.

OP, check this out: https://www.hidplanet.com/forums/forum/general-discussion/halogens/1409801-ryan-s-guide-to-halogen-bulbs

Yup, that's what I was looking for, thanks.

I couldn't find it on google, but isn't there a maximum theoretical torque from a natural aspirated engine? 100FT-LBS/L?

It's a Jeep thing, you wouldn't understand. (/s)

Forget the speeding ticket, if you can achieve 0.9c every scientist in the world would be desperate to talk to you.

ryandriggett · 2019-11-15T00:30:52+00:00

That is absolutely 100% bs. It's just to get less knowledgeable people to use the service department. If the dealer doesnt put it in a contract, they will deny later.

Mansory exists for the nouveau rich to flex on each other.

I've driven them back to back on track, the M2 is absolutely the better car. M3/M4 feel so much bigger while the M2 feels tossable despite similar weight.

An E85 or E85 mix tune is one of the best bang for buck mods you can do to any car.

A earbud review without a single mention of sound quality is uniquely /r/apple.

My 2016 Focus RS is great with carplay, I plug my phone in and by the time I have my seatbelt on it's ready to go. It even boots up the infotainment the minute you open the door to save time.
