So I'm without a car now......

[DevilDougWS6]

For tonight. My pain in the ass mother decides she wants to take my car to volleyball when there is a perfectly good truck, and a van out front of my house. WTF!

My dad took her new hyundai to georgia for his work trip, and my brother decided to blow up his transmission at a convenient time. I told her to take my truck because I wanted to go out, but shes like "no, i dont know the truck and its dark out" wtf does that have to do with anything?

last time she took my car out she spilled hot tea all down my passenger seat onto the carpet and just left it there, didnt clean it up nor tell me about it, and my clutch wouldnt grab until i pumped it up.

ugh, and she gave me the whole "when its your car you can tell me no" even though shes only a co-signer because i had no credit when i bought the car. and i make ALL the payments on the car including my own insurance. i need to move out. rantrantrantrant.

[DevilDougWS6]

I bet when i get back from Iraq there will be NO clutch, scratches all over, stink like a bitch, and run like ****.

[emolineaux]

that sucks. my 98 z is in my moms name for insurance but no one in the house can drive stick so im safe.

[91DropTop]

not if you pull the fuel pump fuse b4 you go:wink:

[DevilDougWS6]

haha good idea.

yeah well my mom thinks she can drive stick....but has never driven my car with the heavy clutch and short shifter....and last time she drove a manual was in the 70s.

and unfortunately my brother knows how so while im gone i garuantee that my car will become everyones whore and ill have an extra 50k on the clock.

[91DropTop]

or you can "accidentally" lose the keys

[Tru2Chevy]

How about you "accidentally" yank the trans for a rebuild the day before you leave?

im going to have to do that when i get back anyway the way my brother drives. :rofl:

and my mom will accidentally forget the clutch is there....not on purpose though.

hmmm....thats a good idea too. drop the trans and ship it off to some trans shop...or jsut pull it out and leave it next to the car :mrgreen:

[Tru2Chevy]

It would work great if you have a spot at home where you can park the car on pavement and have it not actually move at all while you are gone, then arrange for someone to hold on to the trans while you are away.

- Justin

[DevilDougWS6]

well we have a double wide driveway, we can fit four cars. i always park on the right side of it and my mom parks her hyundai on the left side in front of the garage.

I want to just put a cover over it, stabil in the fuel tank, and put a boot with spikes on one of the wheels and take the key with me. and take the steering wheel off. so that way they can start it up every once in a while but cant drive it anywhere.

[Frosty]

I went through that with the 'vette...it sucked. I'm glad it's gone.

Good luck man...family sucks sometimes.

[mtg6486]

women are retarted

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

women are retarted

Says the guy I've never seen without a girl by his side :lol:

[Frosty]

women are retarted

Says the guy that can't spell retarded correctly. :rofl:;):D

[Saitin]

IMO would be easier to just pull the starter and take that with you.

[Slo86Bird]

my dad has one of his garage bays for rent.... how much would you wanna pay a month? ill start it up and let it warm up once or twice a week. just tell ur mom its going to get motor work done. i will not drive it anywhere except maybe out of the garage and back in if we need to move something thru or whatever.

[LTb1ow]

Doug, you can leave it with me, promise I won't drive it, the LT1 is faster anyway.

[NJ346]

the LT1 is faster anyway.

Doug, I'm sure your car would be fine leaving it with someone of his intelligence level.:wink: Just don't give him the keys, that way he wont know what he's missing.

[LTb1ow]

Aha. Yea, keep on thinking that. Works better for me. ;)
Besides, can't drive stick.

[baddest434]

your poor car:cry:

[Tsar]

My parents can never borrow my car - they can't drive stick :lol:

[KirkEvil]

Not so bad. I just got off for my spring break on friday and a lifter collapsed, so I have been rollin around in a chevy express van until parts are delivered.

[FlyingDutchman]

my parents dont like to drive my car b/c its stick

[LTb1ow]

My parents are afraid of my car.

[Frosty]

My parents are afraid of my car.

Yup, opti-spark can do that to people. ;):D

[LTb1ow]

Hahah good one

[emolineaux]

if you want to yank your trans out and need a place to store it i have plenty of room in my garage your more than welcome to keep it here

[FlyingDutchman]

on the bright side...you have one cool mom lol :lol:

[emolineaux]

Yup, opti-spark can do that to people. ;):D

haha yes it can

[DevilDougWS6]

on the bright side...you have one cool mom lol :lol:

yes and no. shes cool to kind of be able to drive stick......and then a pain in the ass at the same time.

and i might need a place to store it thatd be cool. i dont know how much i could afford a month as i will have to still make the car payment, insurance on two vehicles, and a credit card bill along with phone bill.....what would anyone want a month?

[sweetbmxrider]

does she rock the cut out open? :D

you can leave your car with me. keep the keys. i'll replace the ignition :wink:

i would get a trickle though, maybe even get paul's (smokingss) bubble. he said there is one that has a trickle built in with a fan to circulate the air inside. badass esp. for ur nice ws6

Paul has the one with the fan.

You don't need a starter to start a manual trans car... though in this case it would probably suffice.

[BonzoHansen]

So is her using your car on top of or in lieu of rent?

[DevilDougWS6]

ummmm..... lol



Paul has the one with the fan.

i meant the keys for the boot, not the car lol.

[DevilDougWS6]

So is her using your car on top of or in lieu of rent?

no, i do dishes, clean the catbox, feed the friggin cats, clean the bathrooms, vacuum, etc whatever i can find that needs to be done to help out. spring and summer time i usually do most of the yard work.

Let us know if you have the same attitude toward your mom and family AFTER you come back from Iraq.

[sweetbmxrider]

i don't know for sure, but i do think doug has been there before. i am known to be totally wrong at times though.

[Jersey_TA]

I bet when i get back from Iraq there will be NO clutch, scratches all over, stink like a bitch, and run like ****.

I'd put that in storage when you leave.
