CreeperODeath , to lemmyshitpost in Yo brother sick car yo!

Bruh my dad has a less beat up version of that truck and it caught me off guard

It’s barely used anymore but we also don’t have any reason to get rid of it

polarbear236 , to lemmyshitpost in Yo brother sick car yo!

It’s a little weird to think my truck is very nearly as old as I am

cyborganism ,

It’s too bad that car manufacturers stopped making small pickup trucks.

Blamemeta ,

Blame the epa and badly written laws.

galloog1 ,

I don’t think it was badly written for the time but it’s definitely been gamed to the point where pickup trucks need to be part of emissions standards instead of exempt.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Or I can blame the people actually doing it, as well as actively trying to murder the EPA on a daily basis.

polarbear236 ,

The newer rangers are alright, though definitely bigger than they used to be. My ‘01 just keeps limpin along though, sucker won’t quit

this_1_is_mine ,

no the new rangers suck they deserved a better design. its ass is too tall stuff dissapears behind it. the engines are too high strung little hot boxs. the interiors are cheap in the wrong way and look nice but will all go the way of the ranger center console lid… ripped torn and smashed. though the aluminum body soumds fun till its a drill welds and replace the whole panel moment. i never get wleded panels back do you …they always rivet them back together for me.

Captainvaqina ,

How many aluminum body panels have you gone through?

this_1_is_mine ,

on work and personal 8 in total all on f250s though with 6.0ls in the last 3 years. normally somone backs into something. like a light pole or construction dumpster …btw generally any damage to bed panels and its easier to replace the panel then fix it.

Blame CAFE laws. It’s almost impossible for auto makers to sell small LUVs in the US without pricing them higher than most large trucks.

bdonvr ,

Hyundai Santa Cruz is decent but yeah

cyborganism ,

I’m thinking more like the old Mazda B-Series.

Hubi ,

Both of my cars are older than me. And at least one is in better shape than I am.

betterdeadthanreddit , to lemmyshitpost in Yo brother sick car yo!

That truck isn’t just sick, it’s terminally ill.

iforgotmyinstance ,

Still drives, just gotta let it warm up before you go anywhere.

Slwh47696 , to lemmyshitpost in Yo brother sick car yo!

I work in rural Ontario, and there are so many of those fucking kids around here

Pumpkinbot , to retrogaming in GBC Aquired, Time to Mod

Hell yeah! The cheapest thing you could do while waiting for parts, I think, is clean it up, like removing and de-gunking that sticker.

BitterSweet OP ,

Alright, just a cotton swab with alcohol should be plenty

Pumpkinbot ,

Oh, and definitely make sure the battery contacts aren’t corroded/had leaky batteries, though if you’re gonna swap it for a rechargeable one, it may not matter?

BitterSweet OP ,

Battery upgrade is definitely on the table probably a usb-c. it was verified working though from the shop. Unsure where to get the kits though and what a reasonable price is for a kit.

Vent , to retrogaming in GBC Aquired, Time to Mod

$80??? 🫠

I’m not in the retrogaming scene, is that normal for a GBC?

BitterSweet OP ,

About average, I mainly wanted to purchase from a local shop though to support business. It’s a common date night spot for my gf an I bc they have a small collection of cabinets and pinball machines to play at the shop too.

hamburglar26 ,

We are long past the days of getting them for near nothing so at least supporting a local shop is good. Still crazy these go for so much now, but still cheaper than when they were new!

Unfortunately it is! It’s become an expensive scene.

Muddobbers ,

I got one cheaper on eBay, but it was broken “for parts” that I knew how to fix it cheaply, so really just how much you really, really want one

Ghoti_ ,

$80 is definitely a high price. If you buy a GBC from eBay or Craigslists etc on any given day I’d expect to pay around $80.

However, if you’re monitoring market places like Facebook or Reddit, you’ll come across them for like $30-40 by people who just want to get rid of them. It might take a few days of waiting to come across one but it happens regularly you just have to be quick and have multiple payment options ready.

I’ve bought a few GB-GBAs recently and I’ve never paid more than $45 for one. I probably average $30 or $35 because I buy multiples.

If you live in a metropolitan area. In countryside it will take mych more time.

I live in the country in the USA

CanofBeanz , to retrogaming in GBC Aquired, Time to Mod

I would do the screen first, it will improve the gameplay experience a ton.

BitterSweet OP ,

Alright, where would I buy a kit from todo so? I’ve been looking here: retrogamerepairshop unsure if this is priced well or not or even where to look.

HRYDJPCHNMNDGBLTFIYA ,

I bought my GBA screen from https://funnyplaying.com/, they also have an AliExpress store

GreenMario , to retrogaming in GBC Aquired, Time to Mod

Grab a Flash Cart so you don’t have to pay outrageous used game prices, and find some kind of high capacity battery mod because I use a flash cart on my GBA and it drains quick even with replacement battery.

BitterSweet OP , (edited )

Omfg thank you! I was hesitant to buy anymore games bc of the price, any brand in particular I should go for?

edit: how tf do I figure out what cart to get

mesamunefire ,

Everdrive fo sho.

I got the EZ Flash for GBA which works fine, was cheaper. Idk if there’s a GBC variant but worth a look.

Jiggle it slower… Yeah, that’s the stuff…

Austrian. A UTE is sedan frame with a truck bed on the back. This is not a UTE. It’s a truck.

nickiam2 ,

Austrian? I think you mean Australian there mate! Trucks are much heavier, UTEs are what you Yankees call “trucks”. It’s a UTE because it’s a utility vehicle and used by tradies and farmers and the like.

luthis OP ,

Thanks, ditch buddy! The rest of the world has backwards terminology.

andyMFK ,

Short for utility vehicle. Basically anything with a cabin, and some sort of bed or tray at the back.
