Rasterman (rasterman@detroitriotcity.com)'s status on Sunday, 12-Nov-2023 05:16:58 JST Rasterman @bronze @Groomschild I'm guessing when the nigger goes "that car was a piece of shit" he means it didn't look like a pimpmobile or some sports car; but the Asian's retort is perfect either way.

>well maintaned German car
They are wonderful for the first 100k. Then precision German engineering with tight tolerances becomes a horrible time. -

GabeLakmann (gabelakmann@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:00:33 JST GabeLakmann Most mechanics like chevrolets because they're shit mobiles that are easy to fix with cheaper parts and they break down often so that mechanics make more money fixing them more often and they're often easier to work on too which is a bonus.
Fords, Toyotas, Hondas, well maintaned German cars for the most part are a little more difficult to work on but don't break down as often. -

GabeLakmann (gabelakmann@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:00:36 JST GabeLakmann They're the sole reason that German cars get a bad reputation for being reliable in the USA.
They buy older Mercedes, BMW, and Audis and never do any preventative maintenance on them and so they end up going to shit and the White Americans who have a subconscious anti German attitude due to jewish propaganda call them junk instead of realizing that niggers don't understand how to keep anything mechanical in working condition since they never even remotely understood how they work in the first place. -

moomin (moomin@poa.st)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:22:52 JST moomin @GabeLakmann @Rasterman @bronze @Groomschild the stereotype of japanese cars being reliable compared to american cars is usually a comparison of decade old higher end japanese cars like hondas and toyotas vs entry level american chevys and dodges which shouldnt have those badges at all. no one ever does the comparison with high end proven american cars like a ford crown vic or something with a cummins diesel. this comparison doesnt hold anymore because toyotas and hondas now sell for german prices. there are bad european cars too like some of the entry level peugeot/renault/citroen/fiat. the bad ford/chevy/dodge cars are comparible to them. and yes if you look after even them, they will last as well. most of the issues arrive from road salt rust, unavailable expensive parts and bad mechanics due to no diagrams or technical manuals and overly complex wiring. near all issues are always intermittant electrical. autoelectrical troubleshooting is one of the most retarded fields. personally cars should only have wiring and electronics for lights and other non essential stuff. there should be zero wiring going to the gearbox or engine. figure out a way to control or display status mechanically even if they need to use dial gauges or linkage in a dial like old vintage cars. wires only to the coil and starter and alternator. especially on cheap cars. nothing else. mechanical stuff is usually simple to figure out.

BowserNoodle ☦️ (bowsacnoodle@poa.st)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:28:11 JST BowserNoodle ☦️ @moomin @GabeLakmann @Rasterman @bronze @Groomschild Crappy base Honda's and Toyotas had really good engines and were cheap. They were easy to work on and it was a good product. It's not that American cars were bad, but they didn't produce stuff people wanted as gas became more expensive and a lot of their business was from coasting on boomer nostalgia. My father loved his old Dodge muscle car, but he wouldn't have bought a modern dodge because they always had reliability issues. Japanese cars aren't perfect, but they got some things right decades before American manufacturers. -

GabeLakmann (gabelakmann@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:30:59 JST GabeLakmann Very true, they can be expensive to service.
That heated seat with built in massager costs the same $1000 whether the car is new and worth $100,000 or whether it is 10-15 years old and worth $10,000. At $100,000 it is 1% of the cars value and makes sense to replace, not to mention the fact that $1000 isn't as big of a hit to the bank account of someone who can afford a $100,000 car, versus when the car is worth $10,000 and the $1,000 seat is worth 10% of the cars value.
And many people know that if you keep up on preventative maintenance that the odds of stuff going wrong in the first place is decreased drastically.
Personally, I'd be happy with paying $1,000 to fix a part on a nice car that I've saved $89,000 on by buying used, hypothetically speaking anyways.BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

GabeLakmann (gabelakmann@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:31:14 JST GabeLakmann The parts will still be pricey but you can def save a lot of money doing the work yourself and there are so many tutorials on youtube now that it ought to make it pretty easy to do so.
You'll have to buy tools and sometimes special tools but you still spend less than paying a mechanic and before long you won't have to buy any tools anymore either so it'll be saving you even more money.BowserNoodle ☦️ likes this. -

Me? I'd learn how the car was put together and order the part so that I could replace it myself. That way I can save that part of the $1000 too.

BowserNoodle ☦️ (bowsacnoodle@poa.st)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:35:46 JST BowserNoodle ☦️ @GabeLakmann @Rasterman @bronze @Groomschild @moomin I think for a while they could, ya know? Once we started seeing decent offerings from foreign makers though, they should've seen the writing in the wall. I'll be interested to see how The Maverick holds up once they start crossing 100k+ miles and if Ford's hybrid tech and cost cutting to hit that price point affected their quality. The mild hybrid in some of the newer F150s is cool tech inline with the drive train and doubling as a secondary starter. -

GabeLakmann (gabelakmann@nicecrew.digital)'s status on Monday, 13-Nov-2023 23:35:47 JST GabeLakmann Pretty much, and American car companies could have built that stuff as well or better if they had wanted to but their mindset wasn't to make what people wanted, instead it was to make whatever they could have the highest profit margin on and then try and convince the American consumer that it was what they wanted.
Ford built plenty of 4cylinder engines that got fuel mileage and were reliable, it's just that sometimes they didn't worry about some of the other aspects like the Japanese and Germans did.
The fact that it took them so long to put independent rear suspension in their muscle cars is crazy. Mostly just a cost saving measure for them at the expense of the consumer. -

Like idk if the dude ever changed oil. Probably just topped it off as it blew by and leaked. -
