Yeah, I'm gonna echo the need for a craigslist and mechanical failures thread. If craigslist HAS to go, then so be it but I need me my mechanical failures thread. That ranged from engineering chat to pics of aviation disasters. Stupid overheard car poo poo was nice to have too. If we're gonna have a picture thread, let's just keep it a picture thread. I guess what I'm saying is that the only thread that really needed to go was the cellphone pic thread.

So clearly this went over as well as my old Volvo's last six emissions tests. I'll reopen the CL and mechanical failures threads.

Awesome! Thank you!

So some stupid lady talks about her accelerator getting stuck and being unable to slow it down.

Ohoho, it is. I liked it from a 3/4 view on a black G6 I saw once, but now I see the light.

I know in Florida, debris falling out of a vehicle and hitting your car is not a claim for auto insurance, since it didn't involve a "crash", so it would have to be handle by small claims or civil suits, or something to that nature. A buddy who works for a body shop doing primarily insurance work told me about this.

Not even with comprehensive?

Get some of the newer flat type. They're a little more, but work really well.

They never have on my Volvo 850 or Fiero. The beam would lose its pressure somewhere and leave a spot completely unwiped.

I can't find the thing now, but in the craigslist thread there was Lamborghini Countach made from a Fiero in Ohio. Well that guy is in my town and there's a car show below my apartment today. The car has been here for the past 2 car shows, and I always assumed it was an actual Countach. It's got some fat rear end tires and everything. If you didn't tell me it was a Fiero I would have had no idea, but now that I know it's easy to see in things like the dash and console hump. It was clear that a lot of work and thought went into it.

He kept the 2.8 V6 in it, making all of 140 HP new. I used to be into Fieros quite heavily and know the ins and outs of the cars. I had asked him why he hadn't swapped in a SC 3800 or something, since they swap in fairly easily and simply. His reply?

"Too much work"

Several years ago I had a span where I drove off with the nozzle in my GAS HOLE three times in two months. For the third time I just drove back and left the hose by the pump without saying anything.
