Does everyone know about the NUMMI plant in Cali? Where GM and Toyota's were made in the same plant.
It's Tesla plant now. I only went in there once, right after they started tooling it.
yea that was old GM
they left that plant after they became a new company after the bail out
most trucks all made at fort wayne now a days brotha
Yeah it closed in 2010, there are parts manufacturers everywhere.
Are you in Northern Indiana? I worked at the Subaru and Caterpillar plants around Indy.
No man im out in the city I live in Boston I work at a large volume GM dealership
Ok so I wake up at 3 this morning to my trucks horn blaring for no reason. I don't think it was the alarm because it was one solid blast. It only stopped when I honked the horn
Anyone know whats up?
@here
Does it only happen when it's cold?
This is the first time it's ever happened
The temperature did drop last night though
Most of the parts around the horn are plastic. Cold weather can cause the plastic parts to compress which would cause the horn to go off.
You have to open up your horn to do a little modification to the horn pads.
Yeah you probably have the connections touching
@Thomas Morrow let us know what you find out.
For sure. The cold could very well have been it
@bostoneuropean glad you’re in here. I lot of people are completely in the dark about car sales
Glad to be here and trust me I️ know I️ see people getting fucked all day every day I’m here to make sure it doesn’t happen to our brothers
I️ will give best step by step negotiating skills hahaha you will be a better negotiator than (((them)))
@bostoneuropean I've heard that a lot of dealerships do 0% interest towards the end of the year. Is that true? If so, now is the time to buy, right?
Buy a car cash if you can dude. You never really win at a dealership, especially if you finance.

spooky_kraut#8307 Alright so here’s the thing with 0% yes dealerships do 0% but a lot of the time they have to buy the rate down so you will loose discounts on the vehicle either way they get their money the reason dels at the end of the year are good because the manufacturer give extra rebates to get rid of left over 2017’s
I just went through a lot of leasing research. Was gonna lease instead of buy my wife a car. Seemed like leases work for nicer cars but don’t pan out for cheaper ones. Plus they hide all their fees in $ down on a lease. Seemed like it is best to never put money down on a lease
Just decided to fix the car we have for now
Well my horn went off again last night
I ended up disconnecting the battery
@Thomas Morrow can you go ahead and pop open the steering wheel?
Haven't had time to yet. If all else fails I'll just pull the fuse for the duration of winter
Hopefully I can just fix it after work today
Sounds like a good long term solution
Yeah I'd rather fix the problem but if I can't I'll just pull the fuse. Better than waking up at three in the morning and running out into the cold to disconnect the battery
I had the same problem with an old car. Had to pull the fuse out to fix it.
I ended up pulling the fuse until I can figure out how to fix it
PSA: car drivers ... trucks and SUVs fare far better in car crashes. The heavier weight forces the crash energy into other objects and reduces G forces, the large size provides big crumple zones, the higher bumpers match other trucks and make the collision at knee level rather than shoulder level. You should consider an SUV for your next vehicle purchase, it could save your life and prevent permanent injury.
Plus trucks are cool
I was thinking of getting something like Ford Escape maybe. I like the smaller SUV models out now
whats the rundown on a honda civic purchase as a tuner car
What year are you looking for? What's your goals for the car?
I was thinking Id just start with modified exhaust panel air filter VTEC and the flywheel
