$17.7k is the pre-discount MSRP of the 1.0 ecoboost fiesta, which only comes with a manual. Maybe that's the car you should be looking for. Also, they don't seem to understand what the point of a deposit is. You give them a deposit to secure a car, if they can't or won't secure the car, they shouldn't take a deposit. Where do you live? There are 1.0 ecoboost Fiesta SEs advertized on cars.com under $15k http://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/601806078/overview/

For some reason I kept thinking these died off when the new Vette came out.

The 2015 powerstroke is 440hp/860ft/lbs, and a reg cab/long box chevy 2500hd with the duramax can do a 13.9 second quarter mile right out of the box. Not sure if that helps your decision at all

Motronic posted:You probably don't want a manual for towing duty. The d-max/alison combo is really really drat nice. dodge is the only one still offering a manual, and it's rated at 660ft/lbs, when a truck with the aisin 6 speed auto is rated at 850. It's downrated for good reason as well, as the G56 is aluminum, and twists when you try transmitting torque through it, the standard chrysler autos are still poo poo as well. I got by just fine towing with a manual in my dually. The first gear is stupidly low to get you started, but that means you miss the bonus of 2 overdrive gears you get with the 6 speed autos

blk posted:Have you guys ever shipped anything Greyhound? Apparently they carry packages as well as people; $70 to get a bumper cover here. I'm not sure if they bring it up in the cabin or slide it down in the baggage compartment or what. Kind of worried about the thing getting banged up. The stuff is usually thrown under the bus with people's bags. I've had a 220lb roper pump shipped to me through greyhound. and it got to me just fine. Depending on the route, it could be moved bus to bus a pile of times, which can subject it to abuse if it encounters 1 idiot along the line.

some texas redneck posted:That's one thing that's fantastic about K chips - all you do to overclock is change the multiplier. No playing with hundreds of toggles, no playing with voltages, no playing with FSB speeds. It just.. works. You CAN play with voltages to squeeze out another 200-300 MHz, but at that point, it's just I run my i5 2500k is 4.8ghz, it's over 3 years old now, and there's really no reason to look for an upgrade at this point. Maybe when there's an affordable 8 core with same performance/core.

I passed some sort of car cruise and i have no idea what the gently caress. It was about 30% rattle canned imports, 30% lifted/lowered trucks, 30% harleys, and 10% muscle cars.

My truck sat basically all winter(600 miles in 8 months), i fired it up and went for a drive to charge the battery up a bit, and suddenly it's doing this. Like it's trying to coax me into driving it more.

Why do all these half-assed hack job car shops let their incompetence be televised. I'm watching sin city motors. They're building a $40,000 rat rod, and the first indication that the rear end out of the old motorhome frame they're building around is hosed is when they have it 90% done and they try to drive it. $40k and you don't even get a fluid change in the potentially half million mile 30 year old RV diff they pulled out of a junkyard.
