Makes sense, but kind of defeats the purpose of all the vehicle codes in place today.

They are a joke. Overly safe and too much. Wiper and lights work. Brakes and tires are ok, then you are good to go. Keep it rolling, if there is a legitimate issue then they will get it fixed. Only time I've ever wen ball joints checked in any shop is on heavy vehicles like a truck with a few years on it. Tie rods take 2 seconds to check

Drums you just look at last vehicle history and mileage. Write 3 or 4b hahaha flat rate life

Loli like discs. I remember doing drums on my dad's Taurus. It was a nightmare.

Everything will change after school for you. Nothing is bad. Drums aren't bad. It's more of a pain to try and get the drum off of it's f**ked up. Most aren't even checked, just write 3-4. Discs you don't even pull the wheel eventually, you can read the 32nds just looking at it

Cars are like Legos. All are the same and nothing is harder than the rest. All it is, is removing a bolt and putting it back in. Unless it's electrical, I love electrical

Yeah I know. Electrical is fun, because its like a maze when reading a diagram. Find where each wire goes and find out the problem.

I don't see it as a maze, but I understand systems and how they work and can tell where a people is just by seeing what works and doesn't work and how it functions. People just get lost because you can't physically see it current flow. You have to understand how it works and what prevents it from working. Something as simple as one ground can f**k a whole vehicle up. Wait till you have Holley, loved that class

Yup. Four years of electronics taught me that. Kids in my electrical class couldn't understand how electricity flows because you can't see it so they couldn't grasp it. It's easy when you get the hang of it and understand the components and the direction of current flow.

Wind blew my hood up onto my windshield. Wrecked car is now more wrecked.
Damn! That probably would have scared the crap out of me when it flew back.

Well closed another camper deal. Working on a B-class motorhome sale for tomorrow. 98000 msrp motorhome with trade deal stands at 67000. Wish me luck.

Good luck dude! Sounds like you're doing pretty well with the new job!

Well I have court today. Window tint, no front plate, address on license not current, and address on registration not current. Front plate is on, I changed my address to match my license and reg (my old house, ex still lives there and we're on good terms), and the window tint is still on. We'll see how this goes at 6 PM.

Nah I wasn't in the car when it happened. Wasn't even at home. The wind was ridiculous here and since I had hit a deer my hood didn't latch. The wind picked it up and smashed the windshield.

Right?! I live with my fiancé's parents and we were both at work. Her dad calls me and is like "uhh.. You were planning on selling the civic right? Like, you weren't gonna try and fix it" and I said "yeah most likely" he says "oh okay good, because your hood is bent backwards over your windshield and I'm pretty sure your windshield is busted"


Lol fun. Sold the car last night so no longer my set of problems.

Yeah. Everything I've been finding is PWJDM. Just trying to make stuff look pretty.

Well there's k tuned batter hold down, few companies make cooling plates for the rad support, solenoid covers everyone makes and fuel rails. Not sure what else you could do besides downstar bolts. I can't remember if you did an inline filter.
