    Did you camp there or another spot?

    Just curious. I've never done any real urban camping or stealth camping.

    You have no idea how much spam has been grilled and racoons chased off by my dogs in that exact same setup.

    Somehow stealth camping found a way into my YouTube algorithm. Just videos of a dude hiding behind a company street sign, until it gets dark, and then cooking some spam on a propane tank grill.

    Or a dude sleeping in his truck when it's negative degrees.

    Why?

    Although I picked up some WalMart brand seven person teepee tent a few years back on clearance and I just keep it in the back of my suv now and air it out from time to time. It's too heavy to pack but it's nice. I've got it in there with the cot and a little grill and everything I need if one day my wife finally decides she's done with my bullshit.

    Fish were fall fish (a kind of chub or minnow), actual creek chubs, bluegill, pumpkinseed, and seen but not caught a chain pickerel and a smallmouth.

    Not really successful, but fun driving around backroads to blue lines and seeing what’s what.

    People need to stop confusing "fashion" and "looking good". Fashion is just a driver of conspicuous consumption. There's also a huge divide between "I want to impress peers" and "I want to look attractive to potential mates" and then, of course, "I want to dress the way I like".

    well

    did you actually watch until the money shift happens because I feel like it should be obvious then

    the Noise is the transmission gears being turned into confetti and the comment is referring to the fruitless shifting he does afterwards
    I watched the whole video, and obviously he does something he shouldn't with the stick and then the engine makes bad noises and the car stops accelerating, but that was the extent of my understanding.

    so I'm guessing you never learned to drive stick


    either that or you're the mythical chosen one who learned to do that without ever shifting to 2nd when you meant to go to 4th in the process

    Do people regularly shift into the wrong gear like that while learning? I don't remember ever doing that. Although everything I drove had pretty obvious and we'll delineated gears. And I guess when you only have three primary gears it's less likely to happen.

    It's pretty common, I certainly did it

    The difference being that when you're learning you probably aren't trying to drop a gear under braking, as fast as possible, such that the engine is near-redlining as the clutch comes up for maximum engine braking as you would be on the track

    Also not everyone is taught to work their way up and down the gears in sequence, and it's not a required technique, but it does allow for more effective reaction to unexpected events and improve control in poor conditions

    yeah when I did it it was just a crunch noise

    not crunch in all caps followed by the sound of the teeth of the gears flying around like marbles

    HORRIBLE car to learn stick on.

    I learned on an early 90's 3/4 ton Chevy. The clutch travel was ridiculous, and the distance from first to second felt like you were moving the stick shift a solid foot. Also, 3rd gear went from ~45mph to maxing out around 75mph.
