Car Talk 2: The Quest for the Best Rubber

BTW, the no using mechnical brakes thing is :mindblown: The Volt ALWAYS has clean wheels. Volt has proven to be relatively reliable. The Bolt should be far more reliable... once the initial bugs get worked out. Dat simpler single powertrain. Yea, we'll see and find out first hand. Infamous loves th...

Dat detailing thread, doe.

I think I've washed the truck...twice. Clay/polish/wax? :whocares: :butwhy: :wtf: :nope: I only polished a couple spots where there were light scratches or plastic marks - I didn't do the whole thing. F that. Wax was necessary doe. Water was starting to not bead. Water is supposed to bead on trucks...

It's hard to tell if he's :trollface: or not. Thing is, I encounter many people just like this guy, so his sincerity is not out of the realm of possibility. Is 500k views really worth $3k? Also... yea ppl have no idea about how vehicles operate. But given that electric cars are far simpler than gas...

I autopay the mortgage, but not my CC's, and even that was :notsure: When I first got out of school and was broke as fuck, I setup autopay on a CC so I wouldn't have to worry about paying it. I was moving, a lot was going on, I didn't want to miss payment. For some stupid fuck reason, it paid twice,...

My absurd city taxes do . We pay $20/YEAR for our HOA, which plows the sidewalks in the winter and throws a massive neighborhood party once a year. Basic stuff HOA's should do IMO. That's actually a decent use of the .gov, IMHO. Agreed. We have epic police, leaf pickup, and garbage pickup (that tak...

The thing I hate about leaves is bagging them. At our old house, we had to bag them all, which took forever. In our current hood, you just blow them to the street and a giant sucker truck comes by and sucks them up (they then compost it and we can go get the soil for free in the spring). It's not a...

One of those 1.6 NA's with some mods would be a fantastic fun street car for 4-figures. I'd put a 6-speed, aluminum flywheel, and 4.30 torsen in one for maximum :lolol: and probably get some good mid-range coilovers like the new Feal 441 set sold by Goodwin Racing. You'd end up more like $8-10k but...
