I'm done in that thread. Let those idiots run regular to save a fucking dollar.

Yumcha

You e-prick, you.

Yumcha

Back from -ing and -ing...

Yumcha

There are better places to save a few bucks...and well, farking your car up is not one of them.

But, WTFBBQ do I know? I just know robots.

Busy ass day today. Scoring these damn Exams and releasing new ones is not joke.

thoiboi

Do you run premium in your robots Yummy?

Yumcha

You should see the lube I buy to "polish" my robots.


Gives me almost an shwing just thinking about it.

Jamie's 08 TL

Do you have an Asimo Yum?

thoiboi

So you're the one that's keeping this company in business.

Yumcha

This thing? Discount ASIMO 1 8 Scale Figure Robot Replica robot model, USA BEST SUPPLY Price $57.00 - Best Supply is a building supply company which services both the residential and commercial markets.

I considered it but nah. I prefer gokin mecha from anime and other cartoon series than that thing.

Mega Man > gokin mecha

Yumcha

I'm gwairo?

Pesky little rash it is...

I've been to both...both nice towns...both serious college towns with southern belles running all over the place...and their accents...schwing!
It's been years tho...like 30 so I'm sure they've changed. Plus, I was on golf trips both times. Sleep, eat, play golf, drink, eat, drink, sleep. turns out that on golf trips, all towns are the same, just the courses are different.

This thread is tiring. Any counter argument is being ignored with petty details, finding a typo in text, adding useless variables to the equation and similar.

*cue "I reject your reality and substitute it with my own"*

If Mary is in a train going 70mph and Johnny is in a train going 50mph the opposite way and they are 53 miles apart, what did Yumcha eat for dinner?

GKinColo08TL

sushi...always sushi with (or salad?)

Yumcha

Easy. It's salad. Always salad.


And when the mood strikes, broccoli salad.

Yumcha

Or pho. A Pho King big bowl of pho. With extra meat. And extra balls. Big...crunchy balls.

GKinColo08TL

We need an emoticon for :salad tossing:

We sort of have one.

This has been bugging me, something that nfn posted in the gas thread...whilst I'm not an engineer or expert I can't believe the motor is under a 45% load cruising on a flat road at highway speeds. That doesn't add up to me...why would we get 30+ mpg under those circumstances. We only need to feed the motor enough to maintain the momentum already achieved...right?

nexx is also dumb.

"the $10K used TL I drove sucked."

well no shit, sherlock...its a 10k used car.

thoiboi

Gary... I've learned that when people want to get a point across, they will throw arbitrary numbers and figures to do so (and still have the audacity to cite "we want facts and data points, not opinions").. Their entire argument is based on variables out of their control and yet they still think they have come to some solid conclusion

Also: I'm still waiting for nfn and the crew to come into this thread and blame the accident on them using premium gas instead of regular

Doesn't take an engineer to observe this I believe, haha. Your eyes are as good as mine. Or maybe not, although I need new glasses.

Maybe, maybe not. Benefit of the doubt, even though I shouldn't.

This could also be the result of piss poor data analysis or collecting.

Yumcha

But, is he going full-retard?

GKinColo08TL

I don't have my TL anymore but I remember it cruising at 75 mph in 5th gear at about 1800 rpm, how the hell can that be 45% load.

Yumcha

So, Vlad...do you call yourself the Impaler when you get -ing with the womenz...?

polobunny

I believe on my AT TL it is more at 2000rpm at that speed in my conditions, but your point still stands.
Hard to take anything else seriously when even the collected data looks erroneous.

Anyway, enough with that thread in this ramblings, let's toss salads.

thoiboi

LOL @ Yum's post... I was waiting for whoever recommended trying diesel.

Yumcha

I'm gonna ask about using scotch very soon.

TacoBello

That was my EXACT point I made, only to be shut down by "don't get all emotional mmmkay! He's got a scanner mmmkay!"

I don't fully understand what he means by engine load... I guess if at 70mph in top gear, if you mash the throttle, the car only slowly moves... Maybe it is at 50% load with near no juice to push it faster due to transmission gearing. Then again, I don't think he knows what engine load means either. "It wasn't indicated in the user manual"

But that being said, driving at 70mph in top gear does net you very good fuel economy, on a flat road. I too would correlate engine load with fuel economy. On 100% load, when mashing the throttle and doing redline pulls, you get horrible fuel economy. Cruising at highway speeds nets you good economy and I would assume low engine load.

TacoBello

Baller.

thoiboi

When I'm sad, I typically drive in the 55-65% load..
To make myself feel better, I floor my car, so then the engine load increases to 75-80%.
Then I get sad because I notice my MPG is going down, so then engine load goes down to 45% to save gas.

Today I learned: Emotions play a huge part in mpg's apparently..?



Like pb said.. it's fucking pseudo-science at the end of the day.

Yumcha

I never said what brand. Could be Johnny Walker Red Label.

thoiboi

Just add some octane booster to that and you'll be safe

TacoBello

Mega baller!

thoiboi

Do you think our TL's would run on lube instead of motor oil? silicone-based lube of course.. none of that water-based nonsense.. we all know that would mess up our engines..


I'm thinking about starting a thread regarding that but figured I'd run it by the ramblings crew first.
