Tesla’s market cap is twice as much as VAG. 

Tesla is the worlds most valuable automaker and might become big enough to buy Toyota.

I agree, there has to be balance between scrupulous savings and living in debt. I save a ton but also enjoy living in the moment. I’ve known a fair share of people who died before even making it into retirement. Life is unpredictable.

I mean, there’s still a market for Explorer ST’s and Durango SRT’s/Hellcats.

MSRP means nothing on Explorers, I almost pulled the trigger on one and dealer was offering 9k off without me even trying.

I would argue for the better “driving experience” you’d have to go with the RWD base Explorer.

I believe they still do in one of the trims on the 2021 F150. There is an option for a front bench seat. Looks like they mount the shifter on the column.

dafuq is wrong with you

You’re making lots of assumptions.

Good. Told my wife to do the same thing. If her or I get surrounded by an angry mob you can’t predict their intentions. Press the gas pedal.

New cars? No so much. On used? Yeah prices have dropped significantly.

What ? lol, like how? Are you that emotionally sodomized by Trump that he infects every fiber of your daily life? Seek help.

Musk is just very active on Twitter. For all you know the Toyota CEO could have a weird aborigine fetish where he dances around naked while sodomizing himself with a didgeridoo or maybe Tim Cook recites the pledge of allegiance while prancing around in a SS uniform. The whole notion of basing your car purchase…

What are you talking about? Toyotas generally have pretty good lease rates specifically due to their high residual, especially Tacomas and Tundra’s.

Leases are not in fact base on what a car costs. There are other factors like MSRP, residual value, money factor, selling price, cap cost. This is the reason a higher priced XC90 can be leased for less than a Kia Telluride.

I wouldn’t put Honda into that club anymore. I think Toyota is pretty much all alone in predicted long term reliability over 150K miles.

Weird fetish but whatever, we’re not here to judge.

Disagree, I would buy a Hyundai over Honda right now if I was only looking at quality metrics, and this is someone who used to be a huge Honda fanboy back in the day. My last Honda was a 16 Accord I bought new and that thing spent more time a the shop than the rest of my cars combined.

They allowed me to submit a quote to buy my car, not sure.

This has already started happening. Speaking anecdotally, the Carvana estimate for my 4runner is about 3.5K less than it was just a few months ago.
