Stupid cars

[Blados 10+ year member]

I spent a few hours today running all the wires in my truck. It should have taken 2 hours, but it took 5... of course. So finally everything is done and working perfectly. I drive up to blockbuster and put on the emergency brake. I try to put down the brake and back out of the space... The **** e-brake doesn't want to release. So I have to take apart my whole dash, again, and sit in the 90 degree heat with the sub beating down for 20 minutes trying to figure out what the problem is. So I fix it, put everything back together and drive home. I put on the e-break at home and again it ****s up. This is gettign annoying. It's the worst design I've ever seen and I can't seem to keep it fixed. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif

Hmm I tried to yank it with my hand... Do you have to pull pretty hard to get it up?

It's a force of habit from driving a stick.

nope, it just gets stuck on the kick panel i think... not sure exactly what

i still use the e-brake on a automatic

Oh, well what happened with mine is the wire that connects the release puller to the e-break keeps coming off. When you pull the release it's supposed to pull the cord and flip the switch, it's not that it's getting stuck. The **** wire keeps moving.

I understand the force of habit, but can't you just park it in 1st gear and be fine? I've never owned a stick so I don't know for sure but I know of many who do drive sticks that just park in 1st either because they are lazy or maybe they have the same problem as you

i cant say american made, because they're not. most reliable cars (honda/toyota/acura) are built and manufactured in America, whereas American-designed cars are all built in mexico and shyt.

speaking of which blados, did you send the shiva yet ?

Yeah you said there's no timeline. Otherwise I would have shipped out much earlier. Sorry, that's pretty shitty on my part //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif
