I wonder if this will be a “nicer” version instead of a physically larger version. Sort of how the Venza is a more stylish and plush version of the RAV4.

Mercedes Streeter is now with David Tracy, Jason Torchinsky, and others at The Autopian.

I think the take here is that the seller has had this thing for six months and is sick and tired of it. At least that is my opinion, but to each their own.

And the engine under the hood that has many repairs that’ll require dropping the engine and transmission.

That’s not my point. The highlight list of failures contains issues that can happen to any Touareg, not just the V10 TDI. Clear coat failing? Dead sunroof? Leaking air suspension? None of those have to do with the V10 TDI part. It seems the most expensive part of this one is still working.

If I am going to get a V10 its going to be in a 1st Gen Viper.

my parents bought a V10 TDI. Loved it as theyt drove cross country to visit me when I was in San Diego. but when they got back to maryland, the car suddenly stopped starting after sitting for a while. they worked for months with the dealer to figure out what was going on. they had to replace batteries countless times.…

Most of those things come on a great many vehicles now, down into middle and even lower range. Hell, my 14 Grand Cherokee has parking sensors, folding mirrors, air suspension, and auto lifting gate. So I guess what I'm saying is that this is just a preview of what the "cheap" used car market is going to look like in 5…

Anyone who worries about anything in this article (other than a restaurant closing down, making a gift card worthless) is a drain on humanity and needs to check their priorities.

Make sure the gift card covers the entire meal? Nope. Because then the recipient will be left with a gift card with $5.72 on it, or whatever,…

Third place gets a set of steak knives.

That's a lot of $$, which exceeds my tolerance for car payments and makes a full sized 1/2 ton more sensible 

I might get a bunch of free Big Macs, but the real winner is my cardiologist. 

Great tip for participating this way (without downloading or buying) for those who are so inclined.

The irony is that “for life” is likely to be significantly less time for the winner than for the losers.

First place gets two meals per week for 50 years.

Obligatory:

I drink soda for the health benefit of the ginger, yeah. right. 

One of my colleagues, Mark, once claimed that the chicken “bits” in Subway were more like his dog’s chicken chews from Pedigree Chum and actually did a taste comparison. On Google Meet. In front of 200 colleagues. It was fascinating. No one said a word.  Just stared in mute horror.  He claimed that the dog chews…

Some of these are typical cases looking for a payday based on feeble claims. The Popeye’s and Kraft Heinz lawsuits in particular. the rest are indeed interesting.
