I have a 2007 Kia Sorento. I wrecked it through a chain link fence while drifting through my neighborhood. After my brother and I pushed it out of the feild we landed in I started it, put it in drive and when I hit the gas it wouldn’t go. So I pushed until it was in the red at over 8,000 rpms then it moved slowly. I didn’t want to screw it up more so I shut it off. Any ideas on what the problem is? It stays running btw.

    I'd recommend changing the oil in your car. Failing that, try removing the armrests on the passenger seat

    This is very important:

    did you let the smoke out of your car?

    Once you let the smoke out of any machine or electronics they usually don't work anymore, and it can be very difficult to get the smoke back in.

    I made the mistake of letting the smoke out of a burned repeater and had to replace the entire power amp today.

    I had to set up roadside for someone that slid off the ice and ran down about 20 feet of chain link fence. It took the tow driver 3 hours to get it all off the bottom of the car so he could load it onto his truck.

    Miatas are not good on the ice, if anyone was wondering.

    That's why getting hurt is such an integral part of building a PC, the blood helps seal the smoke in.

    this reminds me of one of my fuck ups as a youth.

    I was driving my Dad's 1985 jeep cherokee one summer day. It was one of those hot humid days with rolling thunderstorms; it would rain like fuck for 5 minutes and then be really nice and sunny - alternating between the two. So the roads were all wet and slick. I made a left turn from a stop sign but I was too aggressive on the gas, spun out and slammed into a medium sized tree, knocking it over. The Jeep was relatively fine, the front bumper was flattened where it contacted the tree but no big deal.

    So I went home, explained what happened to my Dad. He told me to call the town and explain what happened so I could pay for the tree.

    So I looked in the phone book for the Town's phone number. I called it up.

    "Hi, yeah uh I need to report that I accidentally hit a tree and knocked it over, and I would like to pay the cost of this tree."

    "........

    ......

    ...you have called a snack bar"


    The tree went.... unpaid for.

    No this is a Heat Poems thread.

    Poems about the Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, and Val Kilmer-starring, Michael Mann-directed, 1995 movie Heat, only.
