You guys are really mean. I can't believe this thread exists.

"The salesman told me that it was good on gas. How do these cars run on diesel or propane? Excellent?"

"When I turn on the headlights, the stereo and clock get way dimmer. Should I buy a new alternator?"

"I noticed that the back half of the owners manual is upside down and in French. I thought France was in the northern hemisphere. Shouldn't it be right side up?"

This is my favorite so far because I can actually picture it being said by somebody!


It even gets Travis Bickle's approval!

You realize that by starting this thread you may developed a new euphemism for anybody that starts a thread on a silly subject!
I would expect to see many replies such as "There's a Squady" or a simple "Squid to such threads in the future.

Pretty much the standard drill for Squady. Post, ask a couple of questions on responses and disappear until next thread.

True story, I know someone that did this to his truck. He rode around on just the bump stops. Rare truck too, was a Little Red Express. We told him he was an idiot and it was unsafe but he didn't believe us. 2 cracked control arms later...

I...I've actually been asked that Also a fun one, I was asked what the green flashing Eco light was on the dash. Having to explain these things without making the person feel like a complete moron is very tough.

Well technically that question wouldn't be asked because you can launch the AT in 2nd gear as that's what the SNOW button does.


More likely he would ask:


"Does the Snow button make snow on the inside or outside of the car".
