Is that door really tied shut with a jumper cable?
Well, the owner’ll be ok unless they need a jump-start
This so reminds me of Grandfather!
Stanford is, after all, an elite institution!
(Several of my coworkers went there, guess who’s getting emails tomorrow morning…)
best thing is, the NCstate sticker on the car…he must have learned that move in college.
I’ve actually done this but with parachute cord and a ziptie. It didn’t look nearly as awesome.
Couldn’t that be Michigan State, too?
Stanford has the evergreen tree in the middle of the S
I guess my car is no worse than this… 3 of the power window regulators have broken in my Buick and each of them are now propped shut with blocks of wood inside the door panels! From the car interior, you’d never know until you tried to roll down the window. At $300 a pop for the actual part for repairs, it was the best I could do on my grad school budget.
Selling that same car to Pick Your Part today… boy will someone get a surprise!
Escape vehicle used in a recent bank robbery. The “S” is actually a modified dollar sign, used to help the escaping robbers identify it on a busy street. Yield: 4-12 yrs, additional 5 yrs for stupidity.
The Stanford sticker is the kicker. This is how an engineering genius fixes a car door.
No, they would be ok just let the door flap open for the jump start then put it back so it stays closed…

I don’t get it.
This is my picture. I guess I should have come to give a better explanation when they first asked about using it.
It is a Stanford sticker. I was walking just off Campus in Palo Alto picking up lunch when I saw this and had to grab a shot. Since it was in a parking lot on one of the Stanford business lots (HR and IT are located there as well as the Credit Union) I assume it was a Stanford employee.
I’d make a joke about that but I’m a Stanford employee too…
Well, at least they’d be easy to spot if you needed a jump start. “Hey you in the black car, my battery’s dead and I need a jump. Can you pull over here?”
Try picking that lock, carjackers!
stay classy NC-state stay classy!!

… But you almost never have to give/get a jumpstart while moving. Almost never.
The sad thing is, I’ve done this before. I used bungee cables but still, same idea.
