“I don’t know RDs well.” Ah well then why don’t you stfu? If you don’t know it all then why cop a snarky attitude and pretend you do? That “pile” is my bike, and given that you don’t even know what it is I’m not too worried what you think about it.

Ha, well, I guess I could check it out for you. I just found it parked a few blocks from my house. It’s freaking gorgeous—I believe that it is a bit overpriced, but I also suspect that it will actually sell for much, much less if it sells at all. CP will become NP if you wait it out...

Did you know you can get a two stroke blender?

Uh, only if you ride in the rain. Which might be a lot, depending where you live and how often you ride, or more or less never.

Whatever man. I get it, it’s a classic and probably worth more with everything correct, so I won’t quibble with the CP verdict, but personally I don’t want anything on my 2 stroke that doesn’t make it go. Autolube disconnect? Check. I know that’s a huge can of worms, but the best 2-cycle oil is not autolube…

Well, it explains the traveling. It’s always dangerous to generalize, but you can’t argue that it isn’t a career that attracts people that like to take risks, ergo soldiers love their fast cars and bikes. And they are proud of them. Maybe they are also likely to use them hard, but I would also suggest they are likely…

Let them have toasters. I don’t want one of these, but everyone I know that has one, loves it.

Military owner. Probably a good thing.

Used cars are a bit of an exception to the high cost of everything here. People come to Hawaii, buy a car, use it for a few years, then need to sell it before they leave, often as quickly as possible, so Hawaii Craigslist is a paradise for Jalops. This phenomenon has limited affect on this part of the market, but I…

I wouldn’t worry about rust. I live on Oahu, and while it’s amazing how awful cars that sit near the coast can get, many do not, and anything that sees a garage sometimes is fine. It’s not like Michigan...

“I’m the chief engineer of an automobile company, but what I’d really like you to know is that I have no taste in music, can’t separate my home and work life, and I am also an utterly mindless Apple fanboy. I really really like Apple.” I’m a little worried about GM...

More like loyalty to one car. I’ll own as many Suzuki Swift/Cultus variants from the years between 1986 and 2000 as I can fit in my allotted parking spaces. They rebadged a bunch of mostly Korean cars more recently, but now they are out of the US anyway. Whatever.

What about this one? My father got a terrible deal on a Suzuki SX4 and he still owes more than it’s worth even though he’s paid more than that already. He has Parkinson’s and dementia and has recently stopped driving for good (due to physical pain walking, not the dementia, lol). Dad’s only got a few years left and…

I cannot recommend this post enough :) At least it wasn’t a Turbo-fly...

Especially if the engine is in the front—lawn dart...

While this is hardly a great deal like the $1200 I just paid for a base model in mildly rough condition with 171k on the clock I’m surprised there isn’t more support for this car at this price. My experience with our “beater” has won my a lot of admiration for a great driving car—Honda’s double wishbone suspension of…

This. CVTs were a thing in F1 for a while, so presumably you can use them for fun as well as mpg. Why don’t we ever get one tuned for sport?

Don’t forget that Cobalts were rental cars for a long time. I enjoyed the hell out some Cobalts—even with the autotragic.

Interesting—I have to admit I just pulled a classic “I’ll just post out my ass about a car that I’ve never driven” concerning the 4C and it’s auto. The reviewers all seem to think it’s slow, and that’s the sticking point. I guess the question is “Can it shift better than me?” If the answer is yes, under all…
