    Sure, we all know this is just 55Buick's (now Screwhammered) second account. The only time you ever seem to comment with this account is when people are doubting your stories on your main account. Plus, if 55Buick is in his mid 20's, how does he have a nephew/niece who is old enough to be on the forums?

    that part is very easy. My youngest sibling is 6. I am 22. I could have a child now, by the time they are 16, sister would be 22. Therefore 22 year old sister would be aunt to a 16 year old

    Fair enough, although I still remain suspicious of the account being a duplicate.
    On topic: Snow turns people into morons. I lost count of how many people I saw yesterday who hadn't cleared all the snow off of their windshields.

    It's absolutely the same with the exception of all the decals, special paint on the body & wheels and a plaque inside with the serial number.

    I feel bad for the idiot that bought a Cavalier with lots of chrome and leather.

    Have just been watching videos of crashes at the Nurburgring. Say what you like about Renault but the fact the car managed to keep the driver safe(ish*) is bloody impressive. The response of the people in the camera car was also very impressive too tbh.

    Skip 20 seconds in if impatient.

    A car that low in NYC? That looks like a great way to destroy bumpers and anything on the underside of the car. Unless it's on air, that isn't a very reasonable car to have in NYC

    Isn't "stance" about being as unreasonable as possible anyway?

    That's why I'm beginning to dislike Subarus and any German car old enough to have a reasonably affordable purchase price. They're OK cars and you can do a lot with them, but way too many of the people who mod them think silly lowering, stupid camber, neon-colored wheels, tire stretching, and roof racks as a fashion item are cool.

    I know I should be careful here because sooner or later I'll end up thinking at least one of those things would be cool in at least one instance, just like happened with "rice", but at the same time, something just seems wrong about the whole idea. It's like, there's a certain kind of person who's into stance, and I wouldn't want to look like that kind of person.

    I've seen that video a dozen times and I still can't get over how much it just looks like bad movie editing when he hit's the guardrail.

    So I was talking about 6.7 Fords earlier, and today, I learned that a friend of mine was in another friend's truck, a moderately built 2014 6.7 F250, and that he isn't capable of handling 800+ HP on snow.

    He ditched it.

    The truck is ok, but was terrified of what Brad (the owner) was going to think of his truck getting spun around backwards and ditched.


    The truck in question.

    Are those 10 lug Alcoas? I've seen them on duallys before but never on a single rear wheel truck.

    This one in particular looks like it was done pretty cheaply too. It still has the stock BBS rims on it.

    That's a big part of the reason why I haven't gotten involved with any local Subaru clubs. Too many flat-bills and stance-bros who don't think long-term when modding their cars. And that's not to forget the kids whose parents pay for their ridiculously modded WRX's. One of the salesmen at the dealership I worked at over the summer had a WRX he put close to $15k worth of parts into. His dad also happens to be a bigwig at a local company.

    Buying or giving your kid a used Subaru is one thing, but a brand new WRX or STI is ridiculous.
