They had a Butthead lookalike available.

Looks like a car that would be driven by a person who would be insufferable to talk to.

Next to dealerships

I mean, unless you’re treating yourself or fulfilling some personal dream, in which case absolutely go for it, new cars are for suckers. A used cars lets you buy something you always wanted and its been around long enough that you can research it and know what to look for. It already has a ding or two so you don’t…

How much longer does it take when you factor in the drive to/from the gas station? It only takes me less than 20 seconds of additional time to fuel my car because I just plug it in when I get home.

Despite having fond memories of riding in truck beds with friends, when people bring that up, I always remind them that there are only good memories left from that era for a reason. Anyone who had a bad time most likely died on site and then the adult driving never mentally recovered from it, so we never got a chance t…

I grew up back in those days of riding in the back of my little league coach’s pick up to go get celebratory hot dogs. Best part was the time we’d catch air going over the railroad tracks in town... otherwise it was a scary ride. I also lived through the shift from no belt requirement to mandatory belts. This was…

Trying to use a CT to do actual truck things...

Let’s not forget... Jesus flipped some tables in that story.

We could stop weakening the CFPB, for one.

Of course it is, they write the laws.

Make it illegal for dealerships to do much of the sh*t they do.

No dislike here. The system is absolutely set up to allow people to take advantage of financial illiterates. Car salespeople specifically are trained to distract from the total price and only talk about payments, making damn sure not to mention that those payments will continue for the better part of a decade.

Talk about putting the steal in stealership. The worst of it is,this is perfectly legal.  

I’ve spent a lot of time learning about personal finance and I’m naturally very frugal. That said, I’m less inclined than I used to be about financial-shaming people.
