Nah it’s okay I haven’t posted my living room, nor styrofoam recycling but then again I’m told I’m different than happy highwayman ;)
I had problems with my 1976 VW Rabbit but it was a great car (ate transaxles) until I gave it to my brother and he got hit head on by a wrong way drunk driver.

He survived with zero injuries remarkably enough.

RIP Rabbit.

This is the only photo I have readily at hand of it; through a fence while playing Volleyball in a park in Miami likely around 1980 or so.

Screw anyone who calls my car a POS

It drove through a big puddle at highway speed at 11:30pm right after a snow storm. Simply needs a lot of maintenance

Currently there's whistling from the turbo
I love my Jetta. Your Vee-Dub just needs a little lub!
 
OK, that's this time, how about the other dozen times? :laughing
you're kinda wrong though, actually I'm mostly posting about routine maintenance. It did wear out basically, tires, brakes, etc.

on this particular VW, the start-stop button was certainly one real issue that I recall OTOH--indeed, thinking quickly I cannot recall of much else. (* - right, I remember posting about the button 1-2 weeks ago, that it's replaced)

but.... since I have 2 VWs maybe I post double :)
 
that's good for you mate, how's the -- non-snowed in, but garaged, miata holding? Did you manage to fit two bags of groceries - and a passenger - in it yet? The above VW was probably better for that (y)
You see these three wood veneered speakers?

I brought those home in my Miata, albeit it one at a time.

Regularly go to Costco in it.

First thing I did when I got it in 1994 was stow the spare tire in the garage though.

Got myself a coffee outside since our water is off until 1pm. Guess I should head to my garage and poke at some motorcycles. These weekday weekends aren't that bad. I'll have the roads mostly to myself tomorrow for a quick rip I imagine.
 
Kinda weird the all in one wash/dry units haven't gotten better yet.

They are less efficient than separate units, each dedicated to their particular task. They may get better, but they will never approach the efficiency of separates.
 
I think the car is telling you it is time to move on.

You are the only person I can recall on here constantly posting about their POS car! :laughing
I think he's the only one on here with the skills to work on the vehicle himself but without the knowledge to address every task without some assistance.

Y'all don't hear about my truck because I don't post about it, NOT because it doesn't need work. :laughing
 
:wave

Therapy was good. Off for a pedal.

When my shit breaks, I just make it Trey @tag3 's problem like the jerk that I am.
 
Welp, I'm out of coffee and bike maintenance has been performed, time.to get lunch and switch to beer I guess.
 
Im going to Sell Daves F250 in the near term and then pour some money into my Fazda Ranger B2200 diesel. Going to flatbed that beyotch.

Not to brag it has 60 horsepowers.
 
Welp, I'm out of coffee
not here. gonna do the 3rd :coffee: right now (or 2.5th?),,,,, "so sleepy"..


to address every task without some assistance
shop scheduled for tomorrow... hope I make it there. (y) the shop said there's one more (grave) possibility of what's gone wrong, ... one detail I haven't mentioned.
Sadly, it's expensive.


Oh, also this:
Donner ... drive on I-80 in snow

Evening folks. Not exactly been having the best of times recently but what I will say is the Spotify algorithm provides the music I need when I need it. But Spotify has my preferences since 2011.

Lady Gaga - Bad Romance
