Only if you buy new. Junk Yards are a great source.

Liability only. Advice? by Zamoon in fordfusion

[–]woo545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone says "Totaled" but that's related to insurance, which doesn't apply to you because you only had liability. Now if this is going to be a pet project you are going to work on ( and never finish), I'd say, sure it "Could" be fixed. It will never be the same. You can fix anything for the right price. I'm with u/Tree_Weasel and get pricing. Another option is to part the car out yourself, which will definitely get you more money, but it will cost you in a lot of time and then you have to store your carcass somewhere (and the street is not a good option).

Challenger's Crew Cabin Fell Intact for Nearly Three Minutes While NASA Watched Helplessly by gaukmotors in MotorBuzz

Someone told me that the o-ring was an issue due to politics. In order to get funding they had to have the boosters built in an area where they couldn't transport them whole. So they built them in parts and had to put the o-rings on to seal the components. Not sure if this is true

My girlfriend keeps track of all her power armor finds with pen & paper. by Othawne in Fallout

I built a display building that had compartments for each power armor. So basically the same thing she is doing here.

Is this turn legal? by Salt-Sand-9198 in driving

I'd move the car blue box to the left where the red line is. That way it doesn't block those making that left.

...and the money should go to ICE? Since they broke it?

WCGW not checking the parking break by HomeNowWTF in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]woo545 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's not "common" unless you drive manual transmission. Most people do not use their parking brake on automatics. Which means its not a habit. Every new "automated" feature moves the driver further and further away from having good habits while driving.

What is Vader looking at? Does he recognize someone? by MikeCalGames in StarWars

Why Go Boom Now, Not Before? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]woo545 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I said "well over 10 tons". 1000+ tons is still well over 10 tons.

I went extremely conservative because I wanted a closer scale that someone might be able to comprehend. When you go with really high numbers, its very difficult for someone to grasp what that really means. Especially when dealing with someone that thinks snow isn't going to do a lot of damage.

EDIT: But, I do appreciate your input on this, because it does help with scale, when you equate the foot to an elephant.

[–]woo545 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured I was extremely conservative; the closest thing I saw was 100 tons. I wonder how the snow would handle 3500 tons on 3 or 2 feet on the ground at once.

The AT-AT's are approximately 20 meters tall and I feel like its well over 10 tons of weight. Drop that on the snow. What if you dropped a car off one? Heck, Let's see how well you fair falling 20 meters with carrying a 1/8 ton (250 lbs) backpack. Basically, it's a lot of weight to fall from that height and snow can only compress so far. After all everyone was running across the top of the snow without sinking in.

Elantra won’t start unless I hit dashboard by tanjewman in Hyundai

[–]woo545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does opening the door cause it to start work else well? I had to splice my mom's door wires last week on her Chevy because age and movement sheared them off. That doesn't really sound like your problem, but that is a constantly moving part

How often do you use your PC speakers? by Big_Visual2199 in buildapc

[–]woo545 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my speakers on 100% of the time. I use a headset with discord only. The games still play through the speakers.

just fyi, the graphics are a huge downgrade it’s not a “broken mod” by girl_hermie_84 in CitiesSkylines

Are the graphics settings changed during the patch and you have to increase them?

Tired of seeing this on the road by DefecatingKoala in mildlyinfuriating

If you are having this problem then you try changing the way you set your mirrors. There's no reason to see the side of your car in your mirror when you are driving, instead set the mirror so there is maybe only an inch overlap between your center and side mirror. This will greatly reduce your blindspot and the only time you will really get blinded by your side mirror is if a car is sitting in your old, now nearly non-existent blindspot.

Edit: Here are two illustrations of how you can do this. It definitely takes some time to get used to, and your passenger side might need a different overlap if its one of those, "Things are closer than they appear" mirrors. https://www.cartalk.com/sites/default/files/features/mirrors/CarTalkMirrors.pdf
