Also I like how they turned a safety feature into something that is now going to absolutely guarantee that the trailer detaches from the vehicle.

Good passwords are a good idea.

Out of all the terrible stuff that's been posted, this one makes me laugh the most. I tell myself it's just someone loving around, but I know, deep down, that somebody actually did this and thought it was fine. I seriously don't think I could come up with a fuckup as elegant as that if I spent days thinking of nothing else. It's just so drat perfect.

Stuff like this makes me wish inspections still happened in my state. I see cars like this (or worse) all over the place and it scares the hell out of me, especially seeing a rusted out jalopy with its rear end end almost scraping pavement, barely hitting the speed limit, with taped-over broken windows, and like 11 people piled into it.

My guess is with mileage that low it is 100% due to embarrassment of driving it in public.

I am not 100% on how repos work but the car was serviced at two different Dodge dealerships in town and is being sold at a nissan dealership which is far as I can tell unaffiliated with either dodge dealership. I might stop by this weekend and take a look.

If it's still there tonight I'll take closer pictures but it looked like it still had the factory shocks in there and the dual ones were just for show.

It's imported so it'll get pecked to death when it goes for its inspection anyway, I don't know why the importer even bothered.

Pfffft, that's maybe an embryonic brotruck.
I see no 20" aluminum rimzzz with stars on the center caps (required), no low profile "off-road" tires, and that's barely taller than stock.
That is an awful rear suspension, though.

By far the worst part of the car is the fact that the top folds down into the trunk and halves the 4 ft3 capacity.

You can either have the top down or trunk space but not both: want to go on a nice summer road trip? gently caress you, enjoy the huge blind spots and cloth roof because who the gently caress buys a convertible for the open air experience?

Agreed, every car should be able to haul its own replacement engine and transmission home from the junkyard IMO.

That is a set of anti wrap bars. NFI why they put dual shocks halfway down them.

Saw two terrible truck things today. One was a semi that rattled off it's exhaust stack on the highway. Just rolling along then the stack goes skidding behind him, he didn't even notice.

Second was a bro truck with wheels sitting a full inch or two outside of the fenders, as in no part of the wheel is actually directly underneath the body. Also had a center mounted exhaust stack cut into the bed, looked big enough to shoot a basketball into.

It's been a good day for terrible truck stuff.
