Looks like we got ourselves a veteran!!

I honestly wondered what would of happened if they actually moved my car....

Parking brake was on, the car was in park, and it's rear wheel drive.... Would it just slide? Or would everything just break and the car just rolls out.

Yep, Army, Captain, Infantry, Company Commander.

I would guess that if they would have towed (drug) it off, and the emergency brake was set hard, it would have locked up the back wheels to prevent any damage to the drivetrain, and just left a couple long black marks till the tires blew.....

Today I went for my car's first complimentary service (1000km). The mechanic said everything was running perfectly
Then I went for a car wash.
And then I went to pick up my sister from school.
While I was waiting, I started taking photos of my car. Some lady looked at me wierd but hey, I love my car

Hahaha no doubt. I looked at that picture and went "daaang, that's how good my car looks?" I wish I had some fog lights on mine. How well do they work? It's foggy here all the damned time and I wish I had something to cut down low. The low beams are nice on this car but i wouldn't mind a bit more low and side projection as well.

Sounds like a repo truck. Maybe an old Chevy pick-up with a quick lift on the back...

If it was a repo man, which I be it was... They would have just dragged car away a few miles around some corner and than re-hooked everything up...

And no... I've never had a car repo'd, but I know the industry well ;-)
