My wife drives a ‘14 ecoboost flex and it’s fucking fantastic.

Some dealers are happy to sell on volume. Especially if there are a lot of dealers in a small area (they compete on price to encourage people to come to them for service) and if it’s late December and they’re in a state with a EOY vehicle inventory tax.

At least SOA leaned on them about it.

The Rolls Royce B60?

All marriages are built on compromise. If my wife looked like keri russell, it might be worth the treason.

My (black) dad was treated like garbage at his local BMW dealer when he was shopping for a car for my mom.

/mandatory airbag joke

You’re welcome. I really wanted to like the 5 because a 4/5 size van with car handling appealed to me. But I couldn’t get past the crash testing.

The flex is a little longer and has more headroom in the third row. And I think the unconventional styling drives the price down more, we certainly got a great deal on ours.

Or just get an ecoboost flex.

There was no way to keep the Mazda 5 on the market after IIHS made offset crash testing mandatory. You can’t sell a family vehicle that crash tests as badly as the 5 does.

And they come with a 2 year unlimited mile bumper to bumper warranty.

...what car? Some of us are very interested in cheapish two seat convertible roadsters.

Now she doesn’t like it and wants a convertible with AWD, V6, leather under $25k. 

She once apologized to me because she couldn’t teach me to do a burnout in a car with AWD.

Medical issue is my best guess.

I don’t mean to disparage our wives, but, I mean, I was down on one knee with a sparkling ring in my hand. What about that broadcasts “This is a joke”?

Aidy Bryant is a delight. Wish we saw more of her.

I don’t really care about fast when push comes to shove.

Heh. I’ve been dreaming about an A5 or 1 series with the carmax warranty. Basically the only way I could buy a german car right now.
