Is there anyone in this thread who doesn't drive like an inflamed starfish

Yeah. It's not me though.

I don't drive like an starfish, I just drive like 5 mph over the limit all the time and only signal when it directly affects people, I don't signal when the nearest person to me is more than like 30 feet behind or more

also, my dad has some outlandish hatred for Subarus (he worked on Nissans and Hondas back in the day), and told my bro to find another car. I honestly liked the loyale, and that roof basket would've made a nice addition to my Camry wagon since my brother said it looked stupid, anyway the next dream is a little further away, its a 109k original southern 1987 626 coupe with the 2.0 and the 5 speed, it has a decent option sheet too

but yeah my bro really needs a car, he has a choice when driving to work of either stealing my car (which never works out well), driving the uninsured Celica convertible that need a main seal replaced soon, or driving my dads monster handicap van (looks like this only rustier and purpler)

Strangely enough I'm called Austin Powers on a daily basis.

I had to re-read this to make sure it didn't say Autism Powers.

So this popped up and even while flooring my truck, it struggled to hit 60km/h.
It says "The engine's power has been reduced".


Help

no i think you read it wrong, it actually says "the engines power has been reduced, please try to add flame and stripe decals to add more horsepower."
im sorry i really wanted to make that joke

its a pickup

there's nothing lovey about a truck

Try to run an OBD scan on it. Idk about Argentina but most auto parts stores will do it for free.

I slowly went from the toll to a gas station, had the guy at the place check it and thrns out, S10s have a "security system" that reduces your horsepower when the injectors are dirty. He told me to restart it every time it appears and take it slowly until I can get them clean.

loving bullstuff. I should be able to burn that filth like I used to do with my car.

i disagree

Well, my truck in particular isn't lovey. It was hit by a bus on the back (my dad was driving; not rearended, just scraped), hit from the front (my mom was driving, left side, no headlight), and with a broken taillight (my dad when parking it). I'm never lending them my vehicle ever again.

It does have a nice champagne color though.

[shitlord]

or you could just start lending your car only to people that can actually drive or avoid accidents

[Pastrey Crust]

I'm not lending it because I'm using it. I used my car and lended my truck but when I scraped the bottom of the car with a rough route, the carter broke off and the engine blew in seconds. I still have it parked at a friend's house, looking for an engine but I'm thinking of scrapping it.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I need to get the injectors cleaned on my Buick too. Of course, gotta do something about the battery first.
