EKDS5k posted:Have you never seen him post before? That's all he does in every thread on the whole board. stump posted:My theory is that stringent testing makes the prices of old cars drop lower due to MOT fear, and while the MOT increases the cost of ownership it offset lower bottom end price of cars meaning total cost of ownership is similar, but cars are typically safer and in better condition. Obviously there are other factors like the lack of export market for RHD UK vehicles, but I think there is some level of truth in my theory. stump posted:Edit: Also I think the "but what about the poors" argument against testing is bullshit, as it simply points to a bigger issue that if people cannot afford some form of safe transport it is due to a complete failure of the social safety net, minimum wage and public transport. People should not need to drive an unsafe car in order to get to work and out food on their plate.

Doof wagon= One has a blind dude bungee jumping on it with a flaming guitar and rallies warriors in a post apocalyptic desert, the other gets some dumbasses ego stroked at car shows it slowly trundles to without ever leaving pavement because it might get dirty or scratched

Saw this vette with a rad wide body kit. Unfortunately I didn't get a shot of it from the side. I can assure you all that it was horrid.

I got up to piss this morning and was probably still mostly asleep so I used my right arm to hold myself up against the wall whilst peeing and I fell back asleep and fell over and probably peed in my own mouth as I lay there for 10 seconds trying to figure out what the gently caress happened and where the gently caress I was. But let's talk about poverty some more. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Actually I think they were done with the derail until you came running in here flapping your arms and making the autism noise.

I like that they keep saying "a classic Jaguar crashed," like the car drove itself into a lamppost, instead of "a dumbshit rich guy crashed his Jaguar."

Assuming the tire marks on the pavement behind the car are related to the crash, it reads to me like someone saw a straight bit of road and were all "let's see how it accelerates!"

The Door Frame posted:Those stopped being amusing around 2013, and are just really depressing now because they still have the faded "NOPE" sticker from 2008, even though we're 2 election cycles away from that being relevant. There's a silver RAM that I see every once in a while in my town with a really wordy "buy American" sticker on its tailgate, out in the boonies, there was this big diesel RAM with the NRA/American flag window decal and several "NObama" style stickers that I would see on my way to school, a lifted coal roller that had a Confederate Tailgate and "Miss W Yet" sticker on the window, and so many others. I thought everywhere else had them too, but Illinois is full of these trucks, and they're almost always RAMs or Silverados, but I did see a Ranger once, and that really stuck out because of the Mazda connection. And because it was a 20 year old truck that was in great shape, minus a really cheap Star-Spangled paintjob and countless  What about shiny, proudly maintained vintage political trim?  I spotted this dude just a few days after the Libertarian party convention, which if you missed it managed to provide some standout moments of absolute unfiltered crazy in an election season not at all lacking for it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d45x4OpMoow. One single person cast a write-in vote for Ron Paul to be the presidential nominee on the first ballot.
