I can’t believe nobody suggested a Subaru Outback yet! It’s a wagon in SUV clothing. Ticks all the boxes, I think. Cargo capacity, check. Creature comforts, check. Readily available in the desired price range, check. Plus being a Subaru, it will last nearly forever. What’s not to like? Why yes, I’m a Subaru fanboi,…

I like the FLEX suggestion, but if you don’t want that big of a vehicle I found this list:

I have an older model Toyota Venza and it will hold a Bonham sized kit and a couple of accessory cases with about 70 cuft of cargo space with the rear seat down. Anything less than 70 cuft is going to be tight unless it’s a 4 piece kit. Of course, you can always have a floor tom ride in the front passenger seat and…

I had a 50% down payment on an order for a new 2005 Ford GT. The dealer out in podunk Oklahoma with ~12,000 F-150/250/350 on the lot had jacked up the price to $180,ooo.00 which he though was stealing from me. (Bigger dealers on the coasts were over $200k). Something happened (I guess he had someone else come in with…

Not sure when this news became news, and since Tesla doesn’t have a team to handle them, maybe it’s all a little vague. But as I’m reading it, the timing of a new tax-credit-eligible entry level vehicle coinciding with the story of the Musk “supporting” Orange Hitler backs the my comments on that article.

I don’t believe that is being asked of you by this article or author. I believe they are simply updating you on the state of business matters on auto dealer lots. You are free to feel however you may about the situation.

God I can’t upvote you enough.

This is a hilarious response. Oh my! The scarcity of the pandemic was so awful to the business environment it led to the dealers (and manufacturers) having....record profits!!!

The problem isn’t price inflation, it’s wage inflation. But,this isn’t reported correctly.

After years of profiteering off of us during a troubling and uncertain era, I hope the car dealerships can survive the next downturn as inventory builds up and sales inevitably slow.

Low inflation still means rising prices. Deflation isn’t a thing (practically, I am aware it exists as a word.  Unicorn also exists as a word!)

I think the economy is doing worse than people are admitting. Inflation might be down-ish, but those prices are here to stay. People are starting to just not buy things. Fast food, luxury goods and, and cars are what we are seeing now, but as people tighten their belts even more I expect to see the R word popping up…

Not this EV owner. I’d take the Lucid and it’s effortless speed any day.

No disrespect to the challenger. Its cool that they found a way to make a road legal version of their drag race chassis.I would MUCH rather have the Sapphire 

I would WAY rather have the Lucid. It’s a better car. 

I’ll take the Air, but your username clearly checks out.

I spotted this beauty last week near my cardiologist’s office.

I sat in a 4th Gen LS (‘06+) at an auto show and it had by far the softest leather of any car I’ve ever sat in. All the German’s kept the stiffly bolstered super slick leather that they’ve made forever. Lexus is the only leather that could accurately be described as “supple”.  I would agree that they are certainly one…

Toyota Century. The very last word in Japanese Luxury, with that classic discretion so nobody knows just how rich you are.
