Well, this is more like a heads-up. Those who can afford a brand new vehicle when the time comes, avoid the 2019 Jeep Compass. Mine has 2,200 miles on it and has been in for warranty work twice in the last three weeks. The first time was for a transmission issue (which they couldn't duplicate, so that couldn't be fixed). This time was for the start/stop system malfunctioning.

Could Princess Celestia fit in the back seat of your car? Say, you wanted to take her for a drive or something.

Or is she too damn big of a horse? Would you need to have a car especially designed to take her in?

My dad got into a car crash last night cause some idiot decided to speed onto the highway!!
He's alright, thank goodness but he would've been another crash victim of the holiday season!

This happened right in front of me this morning. I drove to work, and suddenly I look up and it looks like the cars explode. It looked like a new years rocket, just infinitely more startling. heck, the front light of one car landed behind mine, and I was about 20 metres away. And that piece was three times the size of my head.

Imma be offline for a little while. Please excuse my absence as my family is in grieving...

And because of that, you deserve to know where things stand.

First and foremost, I’d like you to meet Rarity.

Not going to lie, shit was weird this week.

I work at a garage and yesterday, when I got into work, I found out from my boss that someone had knocked down a cat on the road and they pulled over and didn't know what to do with it. After having a look, I verified with my boss that it was my cat and spent the rest of the work day feeling pretty shitty.

I was just passing the time watching some YouTube videos, as one does when they know they've got lots of things to do but don't really want to just yet. Anyways, besides all the other fun people I subscribe to, there's this grizzled mechanic who works on Audis and VWs and other fancy furrin cars that occasionally gets my interest. Mostly when he talks about improvised tools or why you should save money and buy your tools from Amazon instead of the tool truck, that kind of thing.

Long story short is that, while driving home from work last night, I lost control of my vehicle, did a 540 degree spin, travelled backwards for a few hundred feet, scraping up against guardwire/guardrail the whole time, before coming to a gentle rest in the median.

Welp... I've been having a string of bad luck. First my battery died Saturday morning. I got that boosted but was told the battery reserves are drained and it's only working at 40% efficiency or so and might fail in a short while. Then I also found out my headlight was blown. Easy enough fix. Got a bulb at Walmart and got that changed with about twenty minutes of effort, a pair of pliers, a flathead screwdriver and plenty of elbow grease. It was rather... snug. Anyway, that only left getting my

This song--Cars are Cars--is one of the most maligned Paul Simon songs. People say it's shit. I don't get how. The lyrics are fucking genius and the music is an absolute goddamned bop. Fuck those philistines. This song is great and all the haters can choke on my cock.

Welcome back to more tales of the auto mechanic world!

I'm going to start this one off with Blue Car theory.
