To be clear, a lot of us Americans also think America is a totally insane place to live.

And most Americans think at least half of America is completely nuts. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

By gears he means the multiple gear systems in bicycle which are adjusted according to the type of road and slope , most of the cycles used here have a single gear system , and when you have to go through it on a high slope road then you might feel the pain :slightly_frowning_face:

I too love cars really the one’s with manual transmission are the best. It gets even more neat if it has mechanical gagues instead of the digital ones we have today. Though my dad recently bought a automatic transmission. :sweat: . I mean I can understand his pov that he is old and likes the comfort but the automatic just feels weird and honestly boring to drive. My grandpa’s premier padmini, the vehicle that I first learned how to drive on and the one that made me crazy about cars, feels way more fun to drive than this automatic :smile:.

Well it is a red VW Golf MK3 Cabriolet :slight_smile:
No Airbag,
No ABS,
No digital gauges.
Honest, mechanical but with cruise control and a powered soft top :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
It is built 1995 and I bought it used in around 2009 until today it is my daily driver :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
Just dug up a photo of it, I love it :heart: no tinkering needed like most ppl do nearby the Wörthersee :sweat_smile:

Haha, I really appreciate that you re-uploaded the picture just so I can see it.

I should clarify that I can easily view the first picture as well as long as I change the canvas and resistFingerprinting feature I have enabled on my browser (I believe FireDragon has it enabled by default?).

For some reason, my mind this morning went funky and I started giggling when I saw the first picture.

(P.S. love the car, but too many spokes on the wheels for my tastes. I personally prefer black 18'' 5-SP's :wink:.)

Thank you for your kind words!
I don’t get the issue with FD regarding pictures, yesterday the post looked good, today it is a mess, and why are other ppl seeing the mess?!

Many ppl told me black ones would be better, I’m not sure. And 18" ain’t possible b/c of my country’s regulations crap :frowning: Those are 16" rims btw.
Actually cheap ones, I got them with the car but the owner didn’t had them in the papers. We need permissions for deviations of the stock values, especially on wheels. So I did them and the officer told me 16" is the limit anyways, so I’m good.

Currently I have much to work on the chassis, it is my daily and we in Austria have salt and snow in the winter, so the body is rusting like mad :S

But I love my car I never would give it up for another car! :heart:

Just a heads up for any Reddit/social media users.
Reddit will be making their big API change tomorrow, the thing everyone, especially the moderators of subs, have been protesting for the last week. Now might be a good time to think about migrating to a more open source/fediverse platform. Moderators of those fedi platforms are already seeing their server migrations on an uptick, and predicting a huge swing tomorrow and the following days given Reddit’s stubbornness to continue down their lock-downs/block third party access nonsense.

The two main Fediverse Reddit alternatives;

  1. Lemmy (two main servers are lemmy.world and lemmy.ml) Welcome Info for Lemmy
  2. Kbin.social: Welcome Info for Kbin

Lemmy and kBin are two different platforms, and they can perfectly interact with each other! This means that they are a part of the federation. And they are only two members of the vast Fediverse.

Apps:
See this post. (currently, I am using Liftoff-bin located in AUR for Lemmy and Thunder app for mobile)
