New noises don't bother me. The amount of things that can shake rattle and roll (it's a mess but it's all tools and things I need for work) means a new sound pops up every week.
It's the new slightly different vibration that sketches me out.
Ever so slightly up/down vibration that you can barely feel when you get to 70? Congrats, next week when you drive to work you'll hit a bump at 15 and the whole
frontbottom falls off. And now you have 3 other problems because drive shafts start flying all over and smashing into things when they break.No, I love vehicle ownership and definitely wouldn't prefer to relax on high speed rail for 20 minutes with a rolling bag/tool box or literally any other form of mass transit...
I always get sketched about the vibrations from my Kia when driving over 120, but I keep saying to myself it's just that the car wasn't designed to go fast

Had this happen recently. Turned out to be a stick that was wedged up into the hub and rubbing on the wheel. But then in the process of removing the stick I found that the wheel was fused to the brake drum and no amount of kicking or banging on it with a sledge would knock it loose. Waiting for a dry weekend to take a more aggressive approach to dealing with that problem...

Because we're both about to get a ticket for speeding.

I should probably specify I'm using km/h to measure speed, I've been afraid to do anything past 140 (87mph).
I don't think the pigs around here care about speeding though...

140 (87mph).
I'm sure there are cars where I wouldn't feel a thing and all that, but mine would shake itself apart.
120/75 is my limit, and honestly my truck shouldn't be going over 90/55 because it loses the tiny bit of efficiency it has.

That is just tires out of balance.

As a mechanic, you can pay me now to deal with it, or 10x as much if you ignore it.

Good thing I have a bike. My car broke down like 4 years ago, been biking since. People scare me, so I don't have places to be.

Tonight I'm at work and roomie texts a video of a water leak probably from the ancient upstairs bathtub faucet...that's embedded in tile. Fucking tile. FUCK.
The month prior the faucet vibrated loudly when I tried to use it. The plunger failing to seat. Guess it caused a crack.

Literally me dealing with my car's worsening exhaust lean
My car in high school did this and I used a coat hanger. Worked really well until it didn't.

It's like learning a loved one is sick again.
"Again!? I really cannot afford this shit, babe!!!"

The front fell off
So close to being 9front

my cruise control keeps me from crashing into the car in front of me, in the fog. that alone is worth having a car newer than 2015.

The violent rumbling is actually a relaxing massage.
ahh, my butt needed a glrbl on the wrbls

Sacramento Police department has a helicopter, Air One, that the department is super proud of. I live in a not-rich neighborhood where Air One likes to hang out and help which sometimes includes shouting inaudibly on the PA. Air One has its own webpage which is sometimes current about what it's doing, but not always.
Air One also likes to fly low enough that we can hear the thumping of the rotors through our apartments. At 11pm on a school night. We know it doesn't have to because the rescue choppers zing by quietly on their way.
And lately Air One has gotten, whinier. This loud screeee! that wasn't their before that makes me think something in the rotors is not sufficiently oiled, or something is about to fall apart. I wonder if Air One is soon going to make an unscheduled landing in my neighborhood.
