When it's pitch black outside, having to use your LED lights to see anything, 42 degrees minus the crazy wind chill and all you can think about is keeping your wheels and new brakes clean [emoji23][emoji23] hands are to cold and numb to dry em, hopefully the sealant will help with water spots

Walked out and watched someone back their bike rack into it, wrinkling up the chrome on the main upright of the grill pretty badly, then take off. Got their plate, but PD said there's little to no case since it's just the chrome damaged and there wasn't any visible damage to the other guys rack. I found the car and checked, but height of their rack matches the damage exactly. Unfortunately It looks like I'm going to be making a claim on my own insurance for the replacement grill.



That’s bs they should be responsible it don’t matter if it was a tiny scratch or a big dent they still hit you

Oh I totally agree! It's ridiculous. Filed an insurance claim ($700 estimate for a new grill installed) and listed them as the responsible party so PD and insurance have to go after them.

I may have done that yesterday... I walk outside to go to my morning classes and this ******* thinks it'd be a brilliant idea to park so close to me I can't open my door. So I went through the passenger side then "accidentally" opened my door really really hard... oops. (What the picture doesn't show is that he had a mile of room on the other side of the spot.)

Oh yeah, it took me 20 seconds at 1am the previous night to park and I managed to get a longbed truck backed in PERFECTLY in the middle wide wheels and all. And they couldn't take that same amount of time to pull back out and realign.. yeah right.

Honestly it seems like the more compact the car is the worse the driver and parking is. My house is on top of a pretty steep narrow windey road with no sides and drops on both sides.... 95% of the time coming up or down the big trucks, dually's, dump trucks and even the dually's with there horse trailers are in there lane, it's ALWAYS the prius's, camrys, mini coopers etc that veer into your lane around the curves and make you hang a inch of your tire off the drop. Ok that's my rant sorry lol

I can’t say I’m innocent of that but it’s always on a stretch you can see farther down to avoid those scenarios.

Removed my old exhaust and manifolds. Had a total of 3 broken manifold bolts and can see where one caused a pretty gnarly leak, which is the one that was broke in my head but got it drilled out. Tomorrow install the new exhaust and hopefully get to replacing my water pump finally823c96ea8d92b1d58c336bc262834c52.jpge92adbb1fc86fa4f80cb795f6c462033.jpgaaf3cb997ce77f35c6b11bbebc81028b.jpgd7b9fc219143b96b6d821d19fd00a6b6.jpg922b9be29804bdc5b7fe67088a43c806.jpg
