Refueling rant...
It annoys the hell out of me when someone sits in their car while they are pumping gas. This shows zero respect, and zero understanding of the hazards of the fueling process. Even up here in North 'ho, where temperatures can get quite cold, there is no excuse for an able bodied person to get in their car while they are pumping gas.
To make this who thing even more annoying, I am seeing more and more people leaving the vehicle running while getting gas, and I am not talking about diesels.

That would chap me as well although I don't see that as much as I frequently see people at pumps where cars are lined up.. and after they get gas they go inside to mill around for 20 minutes... leaving their car sitting at the pump while they shop. If it's dead... no problem but on a busy day where vehicles are desperate to fill up, there's no excuse. Move your car!

Wow, yeah that sucks. No graphics, different generation controller. Hopefully you can get a refund or if you prefer a partial and keep it.
I wish the paint wasn't so scuffed on the hood. That and a broken tailgate. Overall it's a bait and switch scam, imho!

This right here annoys me to an irrational amount.
I'm not an advocate for violence but if someone got stabbed over using the gas pump as a parking space, I wouldn't feel so bad for the victim.
I'm the asshole that will park at the pumps just to run inside and I give zero fucks about it and I certainly won't apologize for it. Why? Because places like Wawa were designed by braindead retards. The parking lots appear to be designed to create accidents. Plus, there are definitely not enough parking spots for the amount of people that are in that place at one time. That's especially true when there are 25 handicapped spots out of 30 total spaces and BMWs, Mercedes and ghetto shit boxes are occupying each and every one. They aren't all handicapped. There are so many more lying and lazy scumbags these days with fake placards or those given by scumbag doctors and nothing is done about that. So I park at the pump to avoid accidents and to know that I have a spot. I don't always do this, but if the place is busy you can bet on it.

Just know, if you get stabbed over this, I won't be sending flowers to your hospital room.
It's OK. I'm sure I'm wanted dead or alive by many people! That even includes 6 or so people I passed on the way to work!Just know, if you get stabbed over this, I won't be sending flowers to your hospital room.
But start with the healthy people that park in handicapped spots.
I've sternly offered to assist in them legally obtaining a handicap placard.
I'll never forget the look on the dudes face. I walked out of the shop, and rolled my eyes. Dude jumped out of the car, with a ******* bat. I told him, oh good you brought the right tool for me to help you get a placard. Dude got all puffy. I looked him dead in the face and told him: "Never bring a bat to a gun fight". Didn't even need to brandish. He turned white as a ghost, jaw dropped, and he apologized. Got in his shit box Nissan Altima and left.
It's amazing how bad some people just want to cause shit or start a fight. Only to realize, they're not the well equipped one, just the stupid one.Blessed Be the CCW.
Good on you! That POS knew he was guilty and got defensive. He will probably end up lying in a chalk line and we will all be better for it.I've sternly offered to assist in them legally obtaining a handicap placard.

Its one thing if there are open pumps, but something else entirely if there is a line of cars waiting for fuel, especially if you're in a damn gasser blocking the diesel pump.
I can't ever remember a single time in my life where I have pulled into a convenience store and all the pumps were occupied. You have a diesel. Pull the gasser out of the way.
Why don't they put diesel pumps next to the front spot of grocery stories like they do for shitbox EVs? And those chargers are rarely ever being used. #sham
First, I think pregnant women that are 5 months + should be able to use handicapped spots without a placard.
Second, it annoys shite out of me when a handicapped driver, with a valid placard pulling into a handicap spot, and someone able-bodied jumps out to take care of business. Nope, park your ass in a regular spot if you, the handicapped person, is not getting out of the car.
1: Getting pregnant isn't a disability. It's an able bodied persons choice.
2: My wife has MS, a disease with NO external presentation of being disabled for the most part for her. Would you like to take a guess if she's having a bad day, and can't spend more than 10 minutes walking, go to berate her in public and be met by yet another person who will defend themselves from someone acting out of line? Moral of story: Don't be so quick to judge a book by its cover.
1. Agreed about handicap people abusing their placards by using them when they stay in the vehicle.
2. 5 months? No way. There are women that run almost up until they deliver. There are exceptions and some women get very sick and/or experience real health issues with pregnancy, but pregnancy isn't an automatic excuse to be lazy.
It drives me insane when I see spots labeled for pregnant women and those with "small children". WTF?! Your kids are not my fault nor my problem. Why should you get first parking spots after handicap spots?
I accidentally parked in a handicap spot at a rundown convenience store one day. The paint on the asphalt was barely visible so I missed it and the sign was about 10 feet away on the building. I got out of the car not knowing I had done this and some bum smoking, probably one of those lowlife slobs that is in a convenience store gambling on the machines as soon as the store opens, says to me, "Are you handicapped?" That's when I saw the sign behind him. I said, "Yeah, I had a heart transplant." Motherfucker shut up quick. But honestly, I don't park in handicapped spots ever nor do I use my issues as an excuse. I never even did that on my old heart. I was too embarrassed to have a handicap placard or license plate!
There is just nothing right about that...
Yup, contacted ebay and the seller didn't respond. Full refund
Does that mean I get to keep it too?
There are times when I buy a used RC online I want the seller to take a picture of the RC with today's newspaper so I have a better warm and fuzzy...
Glad you received a refund. Do you have to pay to send it back?
