I just got a V50 T5 (FWD) manual. I wanted FWD because of maintenance and weight on AWD, and that it’s haldex and never kicks in. High miles and a few quirks and maintenance issues but so far I’m enjoying it. It’s decently quick, really nice to drive (it’s lowered and on new Konis) and of course is a manual wagon. …

My ‘05 V50 has the same control stalks (and a few other things) from the CURRENT S60.

Just picked up a high mileage V50 and it needed a few things off the bat that the PPI missed. OEM Passenger side axle on an auto, FWD V50? $300. On my manual car? $609. Just in parts. No good aftermarket options out there.

I recently got a V50 T5 (manual) because I’ve always wanted a C30 but it’s just too small. So instead went full (tiny) wagon.

That motor sounds great...

I just got a V50 T5 Manual (‘05) that solves one problem with C30 in that it’s much larger inside, but otherwise basically identical interior. The interior is actually quite nice in person, it’s simple/minimalist but I think has aged much much better than other early 2000s interiors. I basically wanted something…

Probably to let McCain save some face with his party there.

In the situation the car pulling out would be found at fault. I’ve been that car. All the money for everyone came from my insurance.

Following distance only applies if the other driver fully completes his lane change.

It’s clear cut.

Sure, but you just said it was the guy’s fault to being with, which carries very specific meaning. What you mean is that it’s good defensive driving to slow down or change lanes in this situation.

Driver could’ve done better but in terms of FAULT for if there was an accident and insurance purposes the driver entering the lane is 100% at fault. When executing a lane change it is the responsibility of the person initiating the change to make sure it can be completed safely.

A competent human driver would’ve already started slowing down, knowing that idiots from that line would try to get in. Though they did reference something about braking hmm...

His was a Tundra.

Is there an internet rule that whenever I’ve had a thought in the past about some obscure vehicle thing from a show Torch has written an article on it?

FWIW insurance in CA just paid out ~$14k on my friends early 2000s high mile (bad condition, base model) Tacoma (totaled in accident.) CA prices for cars are generally pretty damn high.

You can put your zip in but doesn’t mean results will be correct

KBB doesn’t come close close to touching actual sales values in California

Is the option for Recaro seats gone? When did that happen?

Because it’s a $200k super car you can drive to work everyday?
