I had a 13 for years and I loved it. Just a very good looking and fun bike to ride. Then I need to change the spark plugs. 4 hours of labor by a skilled tech and the entire top of the bike has to come apart. Then I needed to bleed the rear brakes after replacing the reservoir due to corrosion (hawaii). That requires

Is this really so unusual though? I have a 35 year old K series Blazer that is far from perfect or immaculate and I wouldn’t even consider selling it for it’s original MSRP of $21,999.  Not saying the price for this accord is reasonable but many cars outvalue their MSRP simply with age.  My dad has a 1968 C-10

Heard the same thing.  A coworker has one and he loves it...except it’s been in the shop 4 times for electrical gremlins in the 8 months he’s owned it.  Coincidently, this is the reason I’ll be buying a Suzuki instead of a KTM this coming spring.  The KTM is supposed to be the best bike in the segment....when it

That F’ing Pacifica is the reason I’ve been waiting two years on a Toyota Sienna. Only two hybrid options and one of them is complete garbage...from the company that comprises half this list.  Go big or go home I guess....

Maybe if cops gave appropriate tickets and people lost their licenses for unsafe driving we could have nice things.”

There is something of a light at the end of this tunnel though. The Grand Highlander Hybrid has reduced those lists to only a few people. New shiny thing.

So a gen 1 Viper...which was already murderous beast, lacking in any refinements that might help avoid a sudden death and a coroner’s report that said “Speed was the ONLY factor.” and we added a couple turbos? What could go wrong.

8k..no tools..and no pedals. I’m not a high end bike aficionado but is that normal?

I missed this one. My quick story: Michael’s Toyota of Bellevue was marking up CPO Toyota Sienna’s during the height of the pandemic. We were pretty shocked with the amounts though.

Super clean and all that but as someone who just got handed a garage kept, late 80s K series blazer....there are just way too many things that probably need to be replaced.

Huh, interesting hill to die on, defending this assclown.

Isn’t this the exact plot of “Nothing But Trouble”?  Bonus points if this little town has Mr Bonestripper for those “rude” offenders.

While I totally agree with what you said about replicating that particular test....are you really asserting that people don’t drive like complete morons whenever possible?  lol

Angry jeep face is a guarantee that the driver is an A-hole.

I’ve said it for years: Any stickers on cars. They lower the value, both perceived and actual.  Plus, the more stickers, the worse (and dumber) the driver.  

It was an e90 series M3 and it actually returned better fuel economy then the Prius in that test. Of course asking an M3 to follow a Prius going full out is like asking an Olympic runner to follow a mall walker for 10 minutes. That was an older Prius though.  I’m pretty sure the results would be different with a

Cool, thanks!

Because unethical business practices are...unethical? Unregulated business becomes child labor, sweatshops, and Stellantis levels of quality control. MSRP isn’t a bad thing in that it sets a sort of baseline to work with. I’m not worked up, just really surprised at how many people are willing to pick this hill to die

Huh, the bolt must have a much bigger battery then I thought it did. My i3 takes around 14 hours from 10% to full. That’s on the car’s reduced load setting on a 120 outlet (I was slowly murdering even heavy duty rated extension cords at full power). It does have one of the smallest batteries fitted to an EV, but

So many defending these awful places.  I get your point...but I don’t get why anyone would defend these places and this idea.  What happens when it’s something you actually want and it’s marked up to a third of a million dollars because....greed and reasons?  No restrictions?  Total free market?
