It's not going into that garage to get fixed, that's for sure. Logically the only reason is to hide it from someone, either from parents or the police. There's absolutely zero reason you would drive it away from whatever happened to crush the front wheel other than fleeing the scene. Of course we're talking about a Cayenne driver here so logic might be out the window.

Yerok posted:Yeah, a healthy 6BT with a VE pump. It's a 2WD single axle, single cab so it scales at like 5300 pounds with a full tank and two passengers. Previous owner spent a bunch of money on some injectors, different exhaust housing, and pump tuning so it's hilariously fun to drive and pulls really well. When I picked it up it came with a Dana 70 built by some fleet service company with a 4.10 ring and pinion and some unknown posi carrier and it would spin the tires in every gear. I went back to stock gearing and now it's perfect. It's pretty much just an old truck that'll happily do interstate driving (other than horrible cabin noise). Also someone painted it metal flaked poo poo brown at some point. My dad has roughly the same truck but 4x4, and a 2011 maybe with a Cummins as well, which seems insane but he likes the simple 89 for work duty. Pulls all day gets great fuel economy, doesn't have anything fancy to break. Pure truck right there.

Want to pick up new car and it just needs plates. Since I am in MA that means the insurance company needs to stamp a form to show I have insurance so the dealer can sort the plates out. Of course my insurance monkeys stamp it with the date of tomorrow meaning the dealer can't get plates today unless I call them and sit on hold for an hour while they try to find someone in the shadowy pigeon holing council to stamp a new registration form with a correct date so I can get plates to put on the car so I can drive it. Of course the RMV is not open tomorrow for plate issuing so if it is not solved today it means I can't get the car until Monday.

No poo poo this exact clusterfuck is why I had to leave for a wheeling trip in Indiana Thursday morning in early 2012 instead of Wednesday night. As a result I missed the first whole day of the event. gently caress the RMV, gently caress our ridiculous insurance system (the form's bullshit, if the RMV wasn't in the dark ages they could just query the insurance database to figure out if you had insurance on the vehicle by VIN, just like the police systems do), and gently caress everything about how mass handles autos. Also, the Worcester RMV is a circus and the Southbridge one aint much better.

When I had my driving test (since there is no UK to US license conversion) I went to the RMV in Wilmington and the instructor was one of these guys who was an ex state trooper so he spent 7 minutes screaming at me then signed the temp license as passed and ran out the car slamming the door on the way out. It was very bizarre. Issue with the registration form is sorted now so can go get it in about an hour. Having to do an inspection on a brand new car is another of those weird things.

Jonny Nox posted:V6 Automatic Mustang isn't really terrible car stuff, but showing off your milk cap rotors absolutely is. I see a tarted up Charger at my gym like this occasionally. Hemi orange with skunk stripes. A wrap I think. Similar pattern wheels but slightly thinner spokes. Itty bitty brakes betray the base model it actually is.\ Edit addendum... Am I the crazy one? You spend a non trivial amount of money to put new wheels and tires on for largely aesthetic purposes while accentuating tiny brakes. Am I/are we outliers since we know what we are looking at and others don't see the flaw? Bogatyr fucked around with this message at 07:18 on Jun 26, 2016 |

Bogatyr posted:
Yes, I think you are an outlier. Frankly, at least 75% of the general public would not even know or ponder what the funny round disc behind the wheel does at all. And of the 25% who knows it might have something to do with brakes, they wouldn't realize or notice that the brake disc being small relative to the wheel means anything negative or problematic. Frankly, most of these cars are driven in day to day situations where the small stock brakes are functionally adequate, and probably far superior to what passed for brakes even as recently as 20 years ago. Appearance/image/style >>> actual performance or function in almost every application where humans are allowed to make a decision.
