How did you bust your lines? Have you a lowered car?

some speedhumps are rather high. i knew htey were in phoenix. lol. damn things were almost 6ft across. the minimum speed was there for a reason. err max speed. because not only did my stock ehigh truck bottom out, i also went airborne. so after that, i slowed a bit, btu still caught air. lol. was fun ( ONLY if no others around who could get injured. ). some of those buggers you almost have to crawl across.

Looks like my GS is my only form of transport now... What a bugger ^,^

Sorry about your car problems but what the heck does that have to do with the topic header?

I guess the perks of having a car become obvious when you need to go grocery shopping,
or tow a boat trailer,
or get to work on a snowy day,
or use long term parking at the airport,
or, etc, etc. . .
Just sayin'

At least it's a great time of year to be commuting on a bike!
Enjoy the ride and good luck with your repairs! :cheers:

I busted my fuel lines running under the car after I went over a speed bump last night x.x Sucks big time and I lost a tank of premium fuel... Don't have any clue how much it is going to cost me and I'm not looking forward to finding out!

Cost is relative to the following info:
Where exactly did you bust them?
How long a section?
Make model and year of car?
You skills at spinning spanners?

The littlest perk for me is just going to the gym.  Packing all my crap in my backpack, working out, then changing back and going to work is annoying.  In the puddlejumper, just go work out and then go to the job.

You have a puddlejumper?
