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:paranoid:

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. :yes: 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.

what do i do when i dont have a ride? ...hmm...good question...never really happened for more than a day or two...so I just bum a ride from a friend (if we're going to the same place...if not I stay at home)

ask if you can borrow a ride?

JamieS697 07-03-2003 09:24 PM

yeah but noone has a spare ride and i dont feel like paying for a rental. so im screwed but when its all said and done it will be worth it for sure

ebpda9 07-03-2003 11:01 PM

heh, if i really need a ride really bad i go out andrent from enterprise :yes: but that is usually 1-2 days, but for 3 weeks ? hell that's a lot of time and money spent on a rental

bum, bum, bum, bum, bum... or if i were in dire needs i would borrow a car from someone. and if that were not an option then i would probably rent one

JamieS697 07-04-2003 10:58 AM

rent for 3 weeks would be killer on my wallet how much does it cost per day again i think its alot:confused:

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...

BlackWolf 07-16-2003 08:11 AM

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!!

Shot 2 Hel 07-16-2003 10:49 PM

never heard of that

JamieS697 07-16-2003 11:46 PM
