The additional supply and assembly overhead makes having two different window assemblies more expensive than just giving everyone power windows I have a 2013 car with hand-cranked windows. there are examples of the same model with power windows. (I got it used, so I didn't have the choice).

the proper way to handle tailgaters is to just put your shift lever in reverse a tiny bit, just enough in the notch so that your reverse lights come on. they get right off your rear end immediately. alternatively you can drive a rotary-engined car without a cat converter, peg it at 5-6k for a few seconds, let off and shoot flames at the dude behind you. this also usually works.

It ain't personal, just get out of someone's way. Yes, even if you have to speed up to do so. Right or wrong aside, it's dangerous to act like you're some kind of hall monitor for speeders. Reckless and leads to road rage.

Hillary Clintons Thong posted:Imagine knowing so little about the car that you drive that you think engine braking and letting off the gas are the same thing kinda depends on how needlessly semantic you're trying to be, technically the kind of engine breaking I'm assuming you're referring to is a specific subset of the more general term. You can by definition call just letting off the gas and having friction slow you down engine breaking, but there are also more specific terms meant to apply to stuff like compression braking.

I wanted to slap the poo poo out of this fucker since I just finished restoring the interior but, I was basically an ent. I couldn't bend, I moved slowly and this loving short dude in the raised truck was talking my ear off because he really really needed to leave to see some relative. Dude eventually just left and I think the insurance company had him drone striked or something.People in lifted trucks and cdl truckers are the scum of the Earth.

I was wondering about the fuckers who do that poo poo on purpose, and end up causing an accident... i wonder how smug they feel pwning the person tailgating them, once people are hurt and their car is totaled.

I have a pretty short fuse and used to be a pretty ragey driver. Then about 6 months ago I was driving down the Long Island Expressway, doing 65 in a 55 in the right lane, when some dude who was weaving in and out of lanes decided to try to get between me and the car in the middle lane right next to me. He rode my rear end, 10MPH over the speed limit in the right lane, for about 5 minutes. LIE is full of cops, so I'm not jumping up to 15+ over the limit for this dummy. Finally he squeezes into the center lane, and when he passes me I flip him off. Guy spent the next 20 minutes trying to run me off the road. Getting in front of me, brakechecking me hard, then dropping behind me and tailgating me while shining a flashlight into my mirrors, etc. Guy almost took out multiple cars because he was weaving around trying to stick to me. I ended up calling the cops, and when I dropped onto the shoulder and put my hazards on I think he got that the police were on their way and took off. Since then I've been a little more wary, and while I still drive fast, I'm noticing that being an rear end in a top hat really doesn't get you anywhere faster at all. tl;dr: people are loving psychopaths, you never know who's going to flip their poo poo on you, there are tons of stories about lovely pointless road rage-related deaths. It's not loving worth it. from today: Toddler killed in Arkansas road rage incident; manhunt underway posted:The incident began Saturday evening when a motorist behind the grandmother grew agitated that she was not moving quickly enough at a stop sign, Little Rock Police Department spokesman Lt. Steven McClanahan said.

you irl posted:speed limit is 65, it's 10 PM and there's moderate traffic in right and center lane. i'm doing 75 in left lane passing some folks, and this rear end in a top hat comes flying up behind me and starts flashing his brights. usually i'd just get out of the way but there's traffic to my right. so i keep going at the same speed, passing the traffic. well i guess this fucker thought i should just veer directly into the traffic or maybe just plow off the road to the left into the median because he comes up on my bumper, puts his brights on, and rides me like a 10 dollar whore. so i brake check him hard - i mean really scare him - and i swear i could smell the poo poo spraying involuntarily out of his rear end in a top hat from my car. he drops waaay back and eventually i pass the traffic, move over, and never saw him again. Lol you stupid wimp. You are supposed to murder those who irritate you in this hellscape America.

If you'd really owned him he would have impacted your car at highway speeds, hopefully making you both lose control of your vehicles and veer off of the road before flipping several times and impacting a tree or some other obstacle, causing a crash with fatalities and making my commute 5 minutes longer today. A five minutes I would have gladly allowed for.
