Stuck without a car
This sucks im stuck without a car but by choice i guess. My car is currently getting an air ride suspension and after that a bomex ground effect kit. I will probably not have my car for 3 weeks as im told this stinks. I was just wondering what do you all do when you dont have a car or are unable to drive?? Do you hitch a ride with friends? or have a spare car?? Im hitching rides and working ways to find a car which sucks cant wait to get my car back

The few times I've had my car out of commision for any significant amount of time I either bummed a ride from my friends, borrowed my little brother's car, or just slept until I got my car back. At least yours is out for upgrades instead of repairs.
 Let me know how the air ride works out. |

it should be sweet because its being custom fabricated for my 2k1 seeing how they dont have a kit yet. But with the fourth coming up it is a real bummer without a car... Feels like im couped up in the house thank God a few of my friends have been picking me up otherwise i would be in bad shape. But i have a 20 day countdown hopefully i wont go insane!!

Lets hope you do go insane. I would love to see a tuner who lost his mind. Should make for an interesting car.

You can get deals from like $120/week. Not cheap, thats for sure.
But my car is currently out of commission. My wheels (3 of them at least) are FUBAR and became dangerous to drive on. So, I parked my car and started driving around the Mercedes. The only problem is that the owner of the Mercedes comes back July 9th, and I stil don't have any wheels to drive on. So, I need to do something :\ I have the money in different places, I just need to appropiate it... -Ducky

If you haven't got it back yet, have you heard of a place called "rent a wreck"? They rent used cars instead of new ones like the more expensive rental places. Way cheaper!!
