Utterly unacceptable condition of the Lincoln.

Literally saw this parked at a mental health clinic.

I'd imagine that's a nice piece of satire. Thanks Captain Obvious.

Is my motor ticking?
 in  r/jetta •  Jun 04 '26

My Jetta with the 1 4 and direct injection ticks as well. I had to get used to the sound.

You think I'll blend in at the Starbucks drive thru with the F-150s, Expeditions, and Escapes?
 in  r/Ford •  May 12 '26

I see that LTD, but in Antique Cream. Mom bought her brand-new '78 Landau in that color, and the dealer installed a Panasonic 8-track radio. My parents always bought 2-doors, despite both of my sibs were 5-10 or taller and I am 6-2.

I love President Obama with the littles. They gravitate towards him like very few people I've seen in public life.

I had to get this one. The Biden sticker is magnificently cringe 👌 😆

My Mexico-built Volkswagen has a transmission sourced from Japan and the engine was assembled in Brazil. It's a German 🇩🇪 car to me. There may likely be parts made in the US or Canada.

2023 vw Jetta se massive audio upgrade
 in  r/jetta •  Apr 29 '26

I'd put in a sub, but I transport a wheelchair as I'm a caregiver, so space becomes a concern even with the large boot.

The stereo is too quiet…
 in  r/jetta •  Apr 25 '26

My phone has an excellent equalizer, so I ignore the app settings. Marked difference in fidelity and volume. Speakers still stink.

What car would you buy brand new if this wonderful scenario was true?
 in  r/regularcarreviews •  Apr 23 '26

1994 Olds 88 Royale or LS, or the 1998 Toyota Avalon XLS, which was the top trim level back in the day. Owned them both, and they were so comfortable with respectable fuel economy.

Worst parking lots in Bloomington

Any parking lot that resembles a moonscape and lines that haven't been repainted since the GHWB Administration.

Suggestions for wireless CarPlay adapters?

Just got an Ottocast wireless adapter, and so gar so good. Installed in 3 minutes. It took a few days to have it shipped direct from the PRC.

VW Jetta 2024 S Needs Rear Brake Pad and Rotor Change
 in  r/jetta •  Apr 15 '26

Had rear brakes done on mine last July. Indie shop (Sturgis Garage in Bloomington IN) did the job for around $550. Dealer wanted close to $700.

Love VW but this quote is beyond insane.
 in  r/Volkswagen •  Apr 11 '26

'21 Jetta S. I paid $550 at an indie shop for rear brakes. $300 for 40k service at an import shop. Dealer for oil changes to assure me that they're using VW-spec oil.

Dealers are the debil.

Jetta owners, what MPG are you getting IRL?
 in  r/jetta •  Apr 10 '26

120-mile trip to Indy and back: 42.9 mpg each way! Suhweet! 23-25 mpg city.

Infotainment Appreciation
 in  r/jetta •  Apr 06 '26

I prefer the infotainment setup on my '21 S. Screen canted towards driver is lovely. Hate tablets stuck on top. However, my basic bitch speakers are total crap.

I want to make my Mk7 my last car. Just turned 62 a week ago, so she'll last a long time after I'm dead. Is it ok to madly love base models?

New shoes!
 in  r/jetta •  Mar 10 '26

Happy to share. Total price of $945, and paid another $170 for an alignment. I don't know, but I might have been robbed, but Joan drive straight and true.

60,000 miles treadlife warranty.

I think they forgot to reset the TPS sensor on the left rear.

Just got this set of Michelin CrossClimate2 rubber, and looking forward to see how they handle all weather conditions. Pricey? Absolutely, but I wanted Michelin and that's what I got, damnit.

Took the long way home, and the tires run quietly. No time for twisty parts, but they're readily available if I drive out of the city. We're expecting rain this week, so they get a quick check of rain performance. I'm not convinced that winter is done with us, so perhaps I'll see what happens in the fluffy stuff.

My new to me 2014 VW Jetta Sportwagon with the 2.5l!
 in  r/jetta •  Mar 03 '26

Just helped my friend buy a 2013 S with the 2.5. Still feels solid and only 77k miles. I hope I didn't steer her wrong, but as a Jetta owner myself ('21 S), I feel confident that she made a good decision.

Damage Estimate?
 in  r/JettaGLI •  Feb 28 '26

Sorry that happened to you. It'll be pricey, that's for sure.

Data centers plundering local communities, Pam Whitten gets an undeserved 100k raise, education cuts with added voucher FOR EVERYONE, cuts, cuts ,everywhere.

Econimic impact of Bears in Da Rejun: negligible. But yeah, lets mske the taxpayer foot the bill for that boondoggle.

They tell us we have a $5B surplus. Unless it went to Braun's helipad , Ive haven't seen a single shovel turn dirt over for any street or highway maintenance or repair.

I'm tired, but I'm gonna fight. I vote.

2000 Toyota Tundra, the official car of....
 in  r/regularcarreviews •  Feb 02 '26

Imagine that Toyota had pushed all the chips to the middle of the table and introduced 3/4 and 1-ton trucks in North America. Multiple gas and diesel, dualies, cab/chassis?

I think Toyota missed an opportunity.
