I want one too, but I really only need it long enough to drive around the town where I went to high school.

The further back in history you go the weirder cars get. They may have not all been good, but at least they were different.

dphi posted:Featuring wheels inspired by a meme that people have probably forgotten by now Yeah, that's my only complaint with this project. The meme was dumb to begin with and it's too far in the past now anyway, so the wheels are silly. Easy fix, luckily.

I forgot or never knew the meme. Those wheels on the unidentifiable VW SUV look like a horror show to clean, but I think they look great.

iv46vi posted:Why not both a touch screen and a CRT , the glory of Reatta from late 80s: I think that also hand OBD integrated as well. Always reminds me of some old vestige of automakers (mostly familiar with GM with this) having OBD built into devices. The Deville I had its own OBD II code reader on the dash. The Buick I had, by pressing a few buttons on the HVAC unit would do self tests and display codes for a bad blend door or something. Had to be some engineer who thought it was cool and slipped it through. Can't imagine much use for a typical caddy owner being able to show P0171 on the dash. Now that I think of it, our WJ does OBDII as well on the dash.

Are you really going to give a drat about the touchscreen from that velvet bordello of a back seat though? That's not a car to drive, that's a car to be driven in.

When you have a car like that, you don't have to give a drat about anything. You have arrived in life and the world notices.

Many Chrysler products throughout the 80s and 90s had diagnostic info available by flicking the ignition cylinder between on and off in quick succession and then counting long and short flashes of the check engine light. Later models used the digital odometer to do the same thing. Older Hondas and Toyotas had similar tricks, but you usually had to put a piece of wire to jump two pins in a connector first. Chrysler did it with no tools at all. PBCrunch fucked around with this message at 17:47 on Nov 12, 2021 |

Chrysler did it with no tools at all. GM did it for years by shorting two pins of the ALDL diagnostic connector. My '90 RX-7 had a diagnostic plug under the hood that you could similarly short two pins. I know I've worked on something that did the same thing as the Chryslers you mention, but I don't think it was a Chrysler product. Actually, maybe it was! I'm probably thinking of my '95 Cherokee.
