Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

more than likely i won't have a way to pay for the game, even if i have the money, because i have no debit card. :(

Isn't it super CPU intensive? Won't it just wreck your computer? :/

maybe i'll just keep it on my steam library until i can run it decently. and maybe if i can't get cities skylines, then i'll get planet coaster. i've been waiting like FOREVER for a rollercoaster tycoon 3 sequel, and i think this is it.

like? i just want the game because i've been waiting forever for a successor to rct3, and it just looks so fun, and plus, you're not restricted on what you want to build. it's not entirely a grid system like rct 1,2, and 3 you can have free flowing rides and paths and scenery and it's so cool it adds a degree of realism.

idk. i'd buy one, boost the power of the stock motor, until it blows, then i'll swap in something more durable.

 

maybe high center of gravity and skinny tires equals rollover hazard?

 

jesus how does someone pulling over equal gridlock?

I dont think rolling over makes it fast?

Any tips for how to go about recharging an AC system? I know what I need (R134A) and I know where the port is. But is there anything I need to know specifically? Or is it self explanatory?

i hate how the next gen m5 won't be rwd anymore, nor will it have a manual anymore. that's the sad part. in the future, i would love to own an m5 in a manual still.

this is why i want america to ban self driving cars. america is letting its people be lazy by introducing self driving cars. they need to drive for themselves. i'm sick of people who support it. i definitely will never. it's just gonna be a fad.
