Steering is an over rated feature.
I damaged my brake line once on an old 60series land cruiser I had about 15 years ago and drove it to the wreckers to get the replacement part lol the brakes weren’t that good the transmission did most of the work in that old girl. The dude at the wreckers didn’t believe me until he nearly drove it through a wall

Sounds like my old volvo wagon when I was in school. Three years zero maintenance... not even an oil change. Built like a tank.

My wife had the turbo diesel and it had a bad oil seal on the turbo.....so when it would spool up and build pressure it would smoke like crazy.......we called it "the squid" lol

I don't know, I was a lot of fun when I was drunk at that age. You should get drunk with them!

You're tempting fate by taking out your ac, Still eleven days of summer to go.

My car just left on a flatbed. The service advisor thinks it's one of the sensors behind the rear view mirror and I'll likely have it back tomorrow. Had to fight with them a bit. I said I don't feel safe driving it and their response was drive it in. Then they wanted me to pay $125 for the tow truck.... had to go Karen and speak to a manager.

I left one in, because you never know!!
