    When you spend all your money on exhaust kits and can’t afford an alignment.

      This is what’s called a “diamond” in the vehicle’s unibody frame structure. This car has likely been in a frontend accident that was bad enough to shift one rail back far enough that the entire chassis is out of square in a big way. The tires, bearings, suspension linkages and other parts are wearing way faster and it won’t have a long life on the road. Shitty insurance policy, body shops, and ignorant (and broke) buyers keep these sleds on the road. I can almost guarantee that the airbags in that heap are blown and weren’t replaced. This shiz shouldn’t be allowed on the road.
