I programmed games for a few years (yes i am 17, but i've done a lot) I understand computers. My internet, on the other hand, hates me. I think I will be talking to them on Monday. Wish me luck.

I would not think an f250 is low enough to tag the bumper in a stock metro. I almost rolled mines drifting in the dirt this weekend. Instead of sliding sideways the wheels gripped and I was on 2 wheels an it rolled out back to 4 wheels. I cant really see anyone tailgating the car. I also have a 2010 insight honda which looks like a prius and people still have expectations of me racing off the line.

It's really not that bad, but it's impossible to find parts here. My grand parents gave me a little "funny money" to spend, what should I do to the Metro? (once it gets fixed of course) I'm thinking of maybe mounting a "bull bar" on it. Edited by Coche Blanco, Oct 24 2009, 10:11 PM.

Yeah, my first and only accident was rear ending my parents. I was following them to get their suzuki sidekick serviced. I was following in my tacoma. My dad stopped at a light, then took off and I looked to see if the way was clear at a 4 way stop and let off the brakes so I could roll up to the stop sign. BANG, my bumper bumper thingie hit their rear mounted spare tire. No damage.

They have "always" thought that the Geo was dangerous. So they said if the insurance company wants to total it we will let them. I am super pissed. I bought the damn car to save gas on my 4 mile commute to and from school, now i'm going to have to sell it? I really want to rant, but i'm not going to. I will probably stay on this site even if we do end up getting rid of it.
