POST Your Ride

Thought I might as well blow the dust of this thread as it's prob my fav ever non-fitness thread.

I got rid of my clio about 2 years ago and got my hand on an old school mazda eunos. Tuned to 14degree timing. bars, wheels, stainless exhaust, the usual...

You drive on the wrong side of the road, and the steering wheel is on the wrong side.........:D

I am an American, I do not know if I can drive down the block with the steering wheel on the right side, it would just mess my shiat up. :)

Nice friggen car though its ass-backwards ;)

My son and I went out and car shopped-sometime back, I posted this in ny journal a week or two ago. This is what he picked out: A Honda Civic SI, Blue (38,000 miles), and for $6,500. I co-signed for him, to get his credit started:

Needless to say he is very happy young man at the present.

Well, I am a Great Daddy..........>at least for today....., lol :)


Best wishes,
 
Pretty interesting point actually. We drive on the left as this is how it was done back in the day. You always pass someone on the road on the left so you can draw you sword and attack. This is how everyone done it.

Then when Napoleon took charge of the French army he (being left handed) ordered his entire army to march on the right hand side and the whole country changed its laws!
Because american was occupied mainly by french and dutch, the rules of the road were taken from the french laws. and they stuck.

So Chillen... Due to Napoleon being a left-handed bossy boots, You guys all drive on the wrong side of the road!!!
 
I've never ever seen this thread in my life. Ill have to post my baby up tonight ;)

Just ignore the semen stains on the exhaust ok...

Nah, his house work is his personal character.

As he learns, he has the dust mops, brooms, and personal waxes at the ready position.

He has had a steady job since about 14ish (he will be 21 in September), and is extremely responsible (and thus why I had co-signed), and.........

If you doesn't make the car payment........

well.............uh.......

I brought him in this world.......

and I can take him out...........:angry3:


If I need something done around the house, he has always been good about it. He has been avery easy kid to raise.

The other one, on the other hand..........Well, that's another story.....lol


:)

Best wishes,

Chillen

DUUUUUDE!!!!!!!!!

I saw the McLea's sticker and thought WTF! This guy lives in Sonoma County! Then I googled your photography business... We both live in Santa Rosa! Small world! :D I'm over in Rincon Valley right now where abouts do you live?

Anyway here's my rig...

0-60? Slower than ****! But that's not what it's meant for
Seats? 2, but has the capability to seat 4 if I had a rear seat.
Gas mileage? I could care less because again that's not what it's meant for. But it gets about 14-16 around town, and in excess of 18 if I stay at 65 or less on the highway.

Those Buick V6's seem like a popular swap, at least in the older rigs. I just finished putting a new transmission and rear end in mine. the stock rear went out on me so I put a Ford 9" in, added some new rear leafs, etc. It never ends. Next on the list is shocks, upgrade the steering, new meats, and it just never ends... :D

yeah the buick V6 is a awesome power plant for the older chassis stuff... It was my dads and he gave it to me not too long ago so I intend to finish it up like he wanted and then let him use it whenever as well. The real money pit is my damn evo. I have so much coin tied up in that thing its not even funny. Fun car though :car:
 
what a fun thread

Funny some of the cars/trucks people have posted I would have guessed they drove just from thier personalities on here!

So obviously this isn't my daily driver but she's my monster that makes it out of the garage once in a while for fun : )

My son and I detailed it (or tried to anyway) a few weeks ago. Anybody wanna race?!

A friend of mine just got a used Evo IX MR, it's a sweet car! Very clean too. So far he's only upgraded the pads and rotors and really doesn't plan on doing much else (or so he says). He wants to take it to that Vishnu? place in Danville to have it tuned, I guess those guys are really good.

Are you building your Jeep with full width 44's? Either way whenever it gets finished, we should hit up some trails :angry2:

Also, have you ever been down to 4 Wheel Perfection off Standish, right there by Waste Management? Only reason I ask is because if you have, I might already know you :)
 
It's a sporty, little convertible...

Not too aerodynamic, but arguably the most "green" vehicle...LOL

Funny thing is... not a lot of people dispute the fact I own this... :yelrotflmao:

Sweet ride, how fast does it take to go 0-60 and the mpg?
