I want my wheels to look bigger.
It's more hygienic
holy shit just wash your car dude
Stop your car from masturbating!
I love the amount of watermarks this image has
Reminds me of the flak from the microwave iphone fast charge, some peeps were very angry
Jokes aside what's that thingy? And what would happen if you cut it? I know 0 about cars X3
It‘s the government tracking antenna duh
1 Valve for adding air to the tire 2 the tire would deflate
Ohhh yeah that makes sense ty X3
On newer cars, there is actually a chip in there (the valve stem, where you put air in your tire) for the tire pressure monitoring system. It tells you what pressure each tire is at on the dashboard.
Oh yeah! I've seen that monitoring thingy in some cars like the ones that have a screen and stuff, I did wonder how it knew the pressure of the tires X3 ty for tye info! :>
i would go check the air in your tires rn if you didn't know what that was
I don't have a car X3 and my parents haven't either since years ago so I've never had to worry about tires :p
Oh X333 makes sense XDDD T~T UwU
:O Do u overuse textfaces too?! X3 Tho even more than me apparently o~o :3
What's a car X3 a special model?
A car but make it cute :3
its like :3 mixed with XP, a text representation of a dead furry (totally not just an :3 with the eues closed)
Not so crazy as it looks
Because each tire transmits a unique identifier, vehicles may be easily tracked using existing sensors along the roadway.[19] This concern could be addressed by encrypting the radio communications from the sensors but such privacy provisions were not stipulated by the NHTSA.

Meanwhile, your car has it's own cellular connection...and you have a phone in your pocket.
With prejudice
Gonna start using "Contract Refused!" like "Uno Reverse!"
See the white, metal looking thing in the image? That's another tracking device from the government to track people wherever they do. They even put it in all 4 of your wheels so they will know when to issue you a traffic ticket. Remove them. /s
Also the 5 silver hexagonal things, they easily unscrew fortunately, you should have a wrench in your car for them anyway. It’s a no brainer
Ok I will
It's true. If you remove this antenna, the government will look and they'll think your car is just sitting in the driveway.
Holy shit they put four of these trackers on my car, one on each tire!
