Alarbus posted:If it's not government property, cutting it can't be any more illegal than it being put on there. I wonder how they'd respond if you pulled out a cordless angle grinder from the trunk? It'd probably be taken off pretty quickly. Sounds like a job for Angle Grinder Man.

Meydey posted:True story: When I went to a Subaru dealer to trade in my 96 Taurus wagon (uggg), we had almost decided on a 3 year used 99 Forester. The process was taking awhile and the kids were whining so we hopped in the Taurus and ran to Mcds to shut them up. As we pulled back into the lot, the transmission literally poo poo itself and left a 30 foot trail of sorrow and shame across across the front of the Subaru lot. Trade in went from $3k to a $500 pity trade in immediately. Took 4 sales guys to push it away (hopefully to a crusher) The AX4N transmission strikes again. You want a poo poo auto (outside of CVT), be lucky to never have a CD4E.

iospace posted:Then please explain why mine kept on eating them. Yeah, that will do it. Had a Buick with a 4t65E. Which was a tad sturdier. Even that gave me the hard shift issues around 90K. The funny thing is when you tear one apart you realize if they spent $20 extra on sturdier parts it would outlast you. But when multiplied by 5,000,000 units you start to see bean counter math. Probably the coolest transmission with the "just gently caress it make it work transmission" is the TH425. Take a bulletproof TH400, strap some chains to it so it can drive the front wheels. To this day, I feel the '68 Toronado and Elderado are the coolest ever.

I don't see the issue. It's way cheaper to just work "check high voltage hose clamps" into the maintenance guy's morning walk-through than it is to hire an electrician. Do you even know what those guys charge?

Well the problem with wood is it doesn't age well. You leave it exposed to the elements for any length of time and it turns to poo poo.

Wasabi the J posted:[video type="youtube"]F0qdHEBo3UU[/video]  Now I wanna switch out the reactions in that with  .Neither of those though. The one I'm thinking of would've been mid 80s at newest, and I want to say it had Burt Reynolds or someone with a similar pornstache. Entirely possible I no longer have any idea what I'm talking about.
