It would be if the problem was not something that was a factory/design flaw.

If you are doing the work yourself, it is probably worth it. If you are using a contractor, then they will usually price it at the projected value added to the house and it will be a wash. This is especially the case now since they are so much in demand and just everything is expensive.

And beware that with mortgage

I think it depends on how you feel about cleaning the carpeted ones.  I have weathertechs in one car and factory rubber mats in another one.  I had carpeted mats in previous cars.  They got nasty and yes, hid dirt, but also captured it and held onto it.  The rubber mats keep the dirt trapped and off the car’s carpet,

No, not unfair because most manufacturers go over these with a fine toothed comb and they tend to be on average better examples than what you get in production.   Tesla is showing this to the public.  They clearly don’t care.  Or rather they are in a situation where they felt they had to some something rather than

I don’t like them that much, and when I do, I order them with mayo, which kind of will mess up the idea of reheating them. I’ll eat one a few times a year, but I’ll hit a “limit” I won’t want another for months. And this only applies to the McDouble. The cheeseburger is all bread.

Call me a snob, with perhaps the

With gas prices the way they are, the bigger vehicles on this list are out for me. Unless you don’t want to go anywhere in them.
Honestly, I’m more about trying to figure out how I could unspool a ton of solar panels while I’m parked at this point. There was that solar EV van concept.... I’d try that.

VW might be your ticket.   I might go for a weekender conversion of that thing if they offer it. 

BEVs + PHEVs + HEVs are > 10% of the market and rising. It would appear that the only thing holding them back is a lack of choice.

I’d by a < 30 even a < 35K BEV if it had 300 miles range. I tell you what I won’t buy: I will not buy another ICE vehicle unless it is a PHEV if I can help it.

Seoul - trains go everywhere, roomy and clean. NYC- trains run nearly 24/7 and are cheap, London, good coverage, new options, Paris, same.   I’ve not ridden Tokyo, but I’ve heard it might be the best.  

for domestic use only, fly one out of the country, it won’t come back. And yeah, no access to parts, as others have noted. The lessors are indeed screwed, but Russia is screwed more.  I just feel bad for the people of Russia getting their kids sent home to them in boxes for what they were told was no big deal.  

True, one a road trip with a church group, car-caravan of sorts. My friend who was driving his car from college (now six kids later), blew a cylinder. Stopped off the road to repair his Sunbird, less than an hour later and < $100 in parts and we were on our way.   We all found this to be hilarious.

I love Volvos for many things, but reliability is not one of them.  Unless it’s a pre 1990 Volvo

If you need a big vehicle, minivans are ideal for most everything except large towing. I recently did the following with my minivan in the last month:

Agree. And minivans are a close second to station wagons. The only thing I would want to do with a big SUV is tow or go deep offroad, but maybe 2% of such owners do either of those two things.

Well, we’ll have to disagree there.  Suspension was fine, engine was not.

They could go mid-level like Acura and do fine.  But that was certainly their call.   Note that Mazda had a failed luxury attempt in the past, depends if they were going to learn from it. 

agree

Besides changing the oil, rotating tires, I had an A/C fan motor on my 1988 Toyota MR2 start making a loud grating noise and fail. I went under the dash and started taking stuff apart until I found the fan motor. I removed the fan motor, opened it up. Found some crap in it, cleaned it out, lubricated it, put it back

Those two generators are worth more than the RV they are connected to. 

Not buying because they are insanely expensive and the depreciation is brutal.
