Same. My 04 is approaching 170k and I’ve acquired a few heat shield rattles, but hose clamps and bottle caps have solved that problem. Everything else is extremely quiet. I plan on using mine as a daily driver until 350k, which is probably when my 2 year old son will need a car (and so I can selfishly teach him how to…

I hear you! In my ~3 years of owning it I’ve found exactly 1 item that won’t fit in the trunk: Roxul insulation, and that’s just because it won’t compress much. Fiberglass insulation will fit, but Roxul has to go across the back seat, or you have to lay the passenger seat all the way down. I’ve fit full an entire…

This is on my * very * short list of replacement cars, whenever that time may come.

Shit. I’m the 3rd owner of my 6MT 3G... bought it for a song because the previous owner broke his leg and needed to get rid of it. I, on the other hand, was going to be instantly poor from paying a substantial hospital bill and subsequent daycare bill, so I needed cheap respectable Jalop-approved transportation

As I can tell you live somewhere in OzCo, you’re seeing the better drivers (but Suckville gets the redneck spillover from West Bend—they are admittedly terrible). I-41 & I-45 is for savages, as is anything near Milwaukee. WI has its fair share of decent drivers and the infuriatingly horrible. However, I don’t think…

It’s on my 04 TL as well. It has to be a fuel economy and user-friendly design feature. The fix is to replace with a lighter flywheel

Many publicly traded companies like Under Armour sell shares of their company which, in some instances, come with “voting rights”. Kevin Plank, their CEO, still has control of the company, no matter what.

It was either this, or taxes for the renovations to the stadium. We both know the renovations were going to happen one way or another. One makes you feel good about paying taxes, one makes you mad. Pick one.

The media will, approximately never, take us “millennials” seriously.

Reasons I will continue to buy used cars: stuff like this. When I had to take my car in for the air bag recall, the service department asked if I knew how to work a push-button transmission. Myself and others ahead of me specifically asked for one without it.

I don’t know what kind of inverse fantasy land you’re living in, but since I’ve gotten out of school and gotten a good job, that statement and thought process seems to have worked well. Of course, I worked hard to get where I’m at, and have seen my income rise double-digits a few years. With such a large population of…

While I’ve never sat in a RR, I’m a firm believer that it’s just a show of money. This past fall there were two RR Sports for sale within 2 miles of my house for about $10k. I wonder if some of these people buy them as “business vehicles” and write off the standard depreciation to make them slightly more affordable

Almost every stock sector has been on a roll with the Trump Rally, sans healthcare and tech stocks for a while. If I were you, take his attacks on FCAU as a buying opportunity as it proved out with Boeing, GM, Lockheed, and Ford.

Wall Street trades on future earnings. Past earnings have a small impact on share price

You don’t want a LGT unless you don’t like money. Can confirm. I had one.

I * almost * thought about feeling bad for these YouTubers

If I had to spend my own money though, I know which one I’d pick

Cheers! I’m glad you found your 4-wheeled soulmate :) She’s a beaute!

Nice! I looked at a Mazda6 wagon with the manual trans, but it had a bad clutch and the dealer wouldn’t budge on the price. I found a screaming deal on my 04 TL 6MT, which I will drive until the wheels fall off. If the wheels do fall off tomorrow, I would probably buy another

Thank you! As a person who fits the age demographic for a millennial, I’m increasingly frustrated with how our generation is portrayed. Your life and mine sound eerily similar. 28, married, have a baby at home, own a home, own 2 cars (mine is a 13 year old car with a manual because new cars don’t appeal to me, the…
