This forum is for any discussion relating to anything that moves. :)
BTW: If you want a specific thread for your car stickied like mine, just make it and I'll sticky it.

Yummm, this forum is just what the doctor ordered.
Seriously though, maybe if this forum generates some interesting threads I may frequent it more than the other members forums. This has some potential.

There is my F150 gallery
Why are you doing this in the introduction thread? The forum is set up so you could make your own thread to display your own vehicle. I honestly have a few things I would ask in that thread, however I don't feel it's appropriate here.

I originally read his post and thought "Joe's going to say something stupid because he thinks he is 'exploiting' a rule that was 'carelessly written' or something." I guess I was right.

I'm not sure if this should be a member's forum, it seems more general to me. But it's up to you (Krazed), if you want to keep this as your own that's fine, but I'd move it to the "General" boards, change the name, and let you moderate/control it.

Flat tires are extremely easy to fix. Even if you take it to the store, it's only about $5 (unless you buggered up the rim, then you're looking at ~$25, and you can't do it yourself).

He wanted to put it there originally, but I persuaded him to put it here.
If anybody else agrees with iago we'll move it.

Car chat is fun anywhere ;D

Haha, that's dumb. A forum with a specific purpose should be somewhere above, and a personal forum should be down here.
I really couldn't care less about car chat, and I don't plan on keeping up with this forum. But I still think it deserves to be a real forum :P

Alright. We'll move it, with krazed's permission of course. =p

Ok, whenever he wanders in and reads this he can answer. Could be awhile :P
Incidentally, while we're wasting time, the marquee news is wrong... :P

Wait til he splits up with his girlfriend. He'll be out of drugs/women and back into computers/x86. It's a cycle. :)
I'll get around to changing it. Hold up.

I thought the drug part was constant throughout all parts of the cycle.

I really buggered my bike up the other day. I split the tube into two peices, tore the tire so the tube stuck out if it was pumped up it'd pop again. Had to buy a new tube and tire. :(
-
The less I can ride my bike the more I'm pushed to learn how to drive, so I have no intention of doing anything to fix it any time soon.

Biking > driving. It's WAY cheaper, more healthy, better for the environment, and you get a strange respect from people when you do a long commute (25km each way, in my case).
Of course, you ought to learn how to drive and get a license. But beyond that, I prefer biking.

Eh, I prefer driving. Living in a huge city for my entire life, it's really what I've been exposed to and the culture I've been brought up in: nobody rides their bike except for leisure. Plus, there are tons of arguements why more people drive other than "they are lazy" :p
-
Bikes are pretty common in Philly. We have lots of bike couriers, and traffic is horrid often, so most in-city people end up combined SEPTA/biking.

I don't know how many kilometers are in a mile, but I have a rather long commute to work and school as well. It can't be nearly as far as yours, but I'd quit my job before biking to it on a daily basis.
NOTE -
Not that I have a job yet, but I've applied for one in town.

Well, Joe, you applied for a job so you'll get it. That's how those thigs work. So, I'd say it's safe to assume you'll have it by the end of the week. Making $30 an hour with full benefits, too.
Pfft!
it's roughly 2.2 km in 1 mi.
-
No, it's ~1.61km in a mile. :P

1 mi = 1.609344 kilometers
Google is teh bomb(a)
Joe, where is this job/how far is it/what type of travel terrain (highways, small roads, large roads)?
-
Rounding ftw, newb.
-
Joe, where is this job/how far is it/what type of travel terrain (highways, small roads, large roads)?
1. In town. I live out of town.
2. From here to town, I guess. About 15 minutes by car, averaging maybe 40MPH.
3. Highway + small roads + big roads. Combo!

You said you don't have a job, bitch.
-
Whatever. Fixed my tire!

Ah, cool, yeah I thought this would be better for a general forum. Newby though differently. Damn him. You have my permission to move it. :P
-
I like how this is the only stickied topic in the trash can. :)
-
I generally go through and unsticky trashcan threads. That's why you rarely see any. :P
-
Haha. You missed like, ten. I got them, though. :P
-
Haha, I normally do it at the time, when I see that they've been moved. But yeah, I'm not nearly perfect. :)
