Get a dollar store aluminum pan to use as a temporary drain pan. Once drained, punch a hole in it and decant the oil into drink bottles - 2 liters are best for obvious reasons. Leave around the back of the local oil place. What I did when I was homeless around the US on a bike. Get smart, or get fent, but get going anon.

Recommendations for used cars that are cheap, light, and fuel efficient which can get me from point A to point B primarily in the city.
However, to avoid higher insurance costs, I’m also hoping for something that’s less common than a honda civic or toyota corolla, as in my area the premiums are higher due to frequency of accidents.

I’ve heard good things about the mitsubishi mirage and the toyota yaris, but I don’t know shit about cars in general. What do you think, /o/? What relatively obscure car is ideal for a frugal commuter?

Assuming you're talking about OPs corvette you're still only kinda wrong. Those corvettes are desired by people building race cars and boomers wanting to own an inexpensive corvette when they instead spent money on some other bullshit in their life. For that undriven example something in the 30s would seem reasonable to a cheapskate like me. You'd have to be silly to spend 40k on a corvette that old because ones with some miles on them are still ~$15-20k.

Sometimes you have to throw belief and value propositions out the window. Kids had posters of that piece of junk on their bedroom wall, and 30-40 years later now that they have some money can live that dream of owning a poster car. Thats true for nearly every generation. Squarebodies are super popular (going up in price) now. 10 years ago you couldn't give them away. Easiest example are any year Ford Bronco. They were junk 30 years ago, they're junk today but that won't stop beaters from selling for $15k still.

How often do you redline your car /o/?
6 replies and 2 images omitted. Click here to view.

35 and still redlining almost every day. I did several WOT pulls to the top of 3rd today.
Redlining water cooled engines isn't bad at all. You can sit there right below fuel cut for an hour and it'll be fine. It's impulse forces that fuck bearings and cylinder walls up.

>>27674774
Multiple times every single day? Why would I have a fast car if I don't want to drive fast? It's a dsg though so it never truly 'redlines'
>>
>>27674774
I don't really know, I don't have a working tachometer, speedo or fuel gauge
>>
almost never. most of my cars are old and turbocharged so a. no real benefit in performance for redlining, they're out of breath by then, and b. low key worried something will snap and i'll spin rod bearings or bend valves or whatever
>>
>>27674774
Pretty rarely, turbo starts losing torque at about 6500 so anything past that is just gratuitous noise - pleasant but not something I constantly seek out

>ABS helps you with braking on snow or ice
Fucking bus riders, stop posting. Embarrassing.
When you brake on snow, and your ABS kicks in, it prevents the tire from forming a wedge in front of it from the snow or ice, which will slow you down far quicker when the surface provides no traction, than without.
If your tires keep turning, you're still going to slither across with no significant braking force applied.
The only thing ABS can help you with in such a situation is to aid in keeping your vehicle steerable at the cost of braking performance.

If you went to driving school with an instructor worth a shit, you'd know this.
>>
>>27676450
>it prevents the tire from forming a wedge in front of it from the snow or ice, which will slow you down

This sounds like some retarded shit someone made up in their own head.
>>
>>27676494
You can try this yourself with your bicycle, which you should be more familiar with than a car.
Drive over a loose surface like sand, then brake lightly with your rear brake, only applying so much force that the wheel does not lock, until you come to a stop. Once you've stopped, try not to move your bike too much, get off and lift the rear tire away, observe the sand.
Do the same again, but this time, apply maximum braking force so your rear tire locks up, and you will notice that your braking distance is far shorter.
Observe the sand around your rear tire again, and you'll see that there will be a noticeable lump of sand in front of your tire, at least compared to the first time.
This is due to the fact that the locked tire started to displace loose material in front of it which the rolling tire didn't, causing it to build up, and the more material accumulates in front of the tire, the further it digs itself in. This helps in braking.
The same thing happens with cars on snow. Only in this case, the effect is even more important for the braking procedure, since a tire that loses it's traction on a slippery surface like snow or ice won't just magically regain it, regardless if it's still turning or locked.

It works best on loose snow, then compressed snow, and on ice it works the least, but it's still better than braking with abs enabled.

The downside is reduced steering performance. Which if you drive a vehicle on snow without abs, and you brake, you will only go straight. If you neet to avoid an obstacle, you need to take the foot off the brake, allow the wheels to turn again.
This of course will make you roll over the material that you have accumulated in front of your tire, so under no circumstances should you "pump" the brake like on-off-on-off. Full force on the brake, take your foot off it as little as possible.

>>
>>27676258
I used to think this wasn't an issue, until I got a car without a rotary volume knob, just virtual up/down on the touchscreen and physical buttons on the steering wheel. You'd think this would be sufficient but it isn't. If you want to quickly turn the volume up or down you can't. Press the buttons too quickly and they only respond to the first press. You have to frickin game it and press at the correct interval like you're playing Daley Thomsons Decathlon on the C64. Such a little thing yet so so so annoying, and means I spend most of the time just listening to my music more quietly than I'd like. This, and touch panels with buttons without any physical dividers (Nissan Ariya/Kia EV6) are genuine dealbreakers for me now, I'm not gonna put myself through it on any daily in future.

Of all the continents I've visited, Australia had the coolest cars at least per my tastes.

They were practical, more bare bones type vehicles but still with good power and styling.
