Airbags are functional. It was to replace a wire harnessing.

You really think some a-hole is going to buy a car or think about it from a license plate frame?


So explain to me why they even put the stickers on the vehicles if this is the case.

Do you just drain the used oil into the yard? After all, that's where it came from.

Crawfish holes work nicely.

You bought one of these too? This is the only Honda that some of us own here on the OT. Super reliable.

the guy told me they’re were cleaning and detailing the vehicle, and i said ‘By the way, go ahead and remove the Carmax decal from the back panel for me’.. ‘Ok’ he said.. got in about a half hour later, got on i10, then halfway home, stopped for gas in Jennings, La, and noticed they left the decal still on.

I got the decal still on mine I bought last year. Mainly because it's small and I just don't care enough to take it off

Most people are sheeple. You didn't know this? They also pay MSRP.

Do you remove the big H from your grille as well? That's free advertising for Honda, bro.

I always tell them I won't buy a car with their sticker or plate frames on it.

Because one of the funniest things I've seen was a Bubba Oustalet decal on a car in front of me in Douala, Cameroon.
I saw a Best Chevrolet-decaled Tahoe in Kinsale, County Cork.

It had Ireland plates.

I don’t understand the free advertising either, but it’s not as bad as people that buy $25 hats advertising a cooler on them

In the end, the car was in the shop for three days. Only 2 out of the 3 recalls were completed because “they didn’t have the part (yet, they had to order the other two recall parts, why not the third?) and to replace a bit of wiring to turn off the air bag light would cost .......$1100! I laughed, said give me my keys and left.
Ever think that the a-hole in this situation is you and not somebody doing his job?

Your mom actually wanted to co-sign, but her low FICO score wouldn’t have helped me.
