No, that altima loan is clearly predatory, but we also can’t overlook the fact that poor people need cars to get around in the US as many people don’t have access to public transit - there is no other choice right now. Maybe the answer is federally backed low-income car loans similar to student loans? Part of the

It’s not. People cry out about having regulations but many many regulations are good. The average man is too stupid to realize that the deal they are given is bad. The arguments I hear over and over are.

I still feel like the Renault is king here because it grew wider by ~15% where the Bronco grew by ~13%.

Zero tacked on and we got around $4000 off MSRP and 0% for 60 months on the Prius. The quote for the transmission was a complete replacement with a brand new unit since we had already attempted to repair the original one for over $1000 already and the shop wasn’t willing to risk failing again with a used or rebuilt

You might be pleasantly surprised. At 119K when I bought it, mine was doing ALL of the nasty things these transmissions are famous for. Slams, bad garage shifts, flares, you name it. A series of drain and fills, then a bottle of trans flush for a couple thousand miles and a full 12qt change basically worked a near

I had a 2005 V50 T5 Auto from 2008 until 2014. It was a fun and practical car which worked fairly well during the length of it’s CPO warranty. However, it required PCV valve replaced twice, the TCU replaced, the Main ECU replaced (which was incorrectly soldered during replacement and required a return trip to repair).

That’s how you get it to blow on your feet.

I am one of two LNA owners in America and can confirm one lever is for hot and not hot and the other is the vent lever.

The biggest offense committed by the 348's designers was to replace the traditional quartet of round taillamp lenses with a pair of mundane looking rectangular units. To make the change even more egregious, the designers seemed to be hiding the lights behind the louvers, as though they know they should be ashamed of

You could also get a Ford EXP if you want the Dollar General version.

Door cards tend to be a phoned-in aspect of car design. Then there’s this. I’ll just hang it on my wall, please. ND on the car.

generally speaking, for anything other than a Semi, the economics of Diesel don’t work out.

Diesel here in rural-ish Illinois varies between 30 cents more expensive than regular and 30 cents cheaper. Right now it’s on the more expensive end.

100%. I’ve got a CRV. If it were a report card it would be straight B’s. I don’t want to like it. But then I had cars that got A’s in some areas, and Fs in others. It’s not as tough or capable off road as my 4runner, it’s not as reliable  as my Tacoma, it’s not as fun to drive as my Jetta TDI, it’s not as efficient as

I drove these at UCD back in the mid-80s and they were very pleasant and easy to drive both on city streets and the highway. This is a cool RV choice.

As a counter argument, you don’t pay the costs to have a Doctor on staff at all times, you pay for one when you need one. This is why for me in particular, I needed a truck two times this year. Once, I rented the truck at Lowe’s to bring home my new refrigerator, the other time I rented a U-Haul to move some firewood.

They dont? Just as quick math, driving a diesel pickup that gets around double the mpg of its gas brother would save you 6 grand or so at 100k miles, prices of fuel being equal. That’s assuming the diesel engine upgrade cost 9 grand when purchased. Oil/filter changes are more expensive but less often and if you do it

There is the immature “why can’t everyone buy what I liiiiiiiiike?” argument. I see this argument as being similar to people not liking the paint color that you or I chose for our vehicles. It’s my choice, and it has zero effect on others. Suck it up. So you’re right in that respect.

This is why I never understand even as a former NA Miata owner why Miata is always the answer? Shouldnt it be:

The utilization argument is flawed generally. There are actually 2 things to look at - likelihood, and consequences, or to say it another way, importance. I think people use the utilization argument and only look at likelihood and call the outliers “edge cases” and that’s missing the point. I don’t need to go to the
