Normally those who pay over sticker on anything don’t brag about it. 

I hope so, been eyeing the new Grand Cherokee L, looks to be just about better than the Telluride in a lot of ways.

That’s a loaded out Grand Cherokee L price territory and it’ll wipe the floor with the Telluride.

The majority, like 80%, of people who died due to Covid were over the age of 65, not the working age. 

Ok

Somewhat ironic since Elon predicted China will be Tesla’s most important and biggest market.

I was really hoping to replace my old Escape with a Rav 4 prime but almost every dealer is charging 5k over sticker. I’ve seen a dealer ask $64K, for a friggin Rav4. I have no sympathies for dealerships anymore. 

First thing they generally ask you before you even talk numbers on the car you want to buy is if you have a trade in, your financing options, if you’re pre-approved, etc. They aren’t stupid. Like others have said, dealer margins on actual cars are increasingly small these days due to internet sales competition. They

Buying cash doesn’t mean what it used to and actually might get you a lesser deal. Dealerships make a decent chunk of their money from selling loans and might be more willing to get you a better deal. Your best bet would be a to shop around, get a loan if it means getting a better deal and then just pay it off if you

One of the few times I agree where more grille is better. 

You’re really “upset” about it lol? Why? 

Lane assist and active lane centering are too entirely different things. I have lane assist but lane keeping/centering is amazing on long trips. I am way less strained at the end of a long drive, 10 hour drives feel like 5 hour drives.

Also penalties for DUI/DWI’s are waaaayyy too lenient. It crazy how someone can have 3+ DWI’s before any serious consequences kick in.

Wait till inflation cased by the Fed really takes off. We’re in for a fun ride.

Really most trucks, I ended up buying a new 4runner in ‘16 since price delta was about 2k vs used.

Love it but at its assumed price point I’ll buy the Nissan Ariya instead.

That mpg is pretty terrible. I pull a 5k pound boat/trailer with my 4runner and thought my 12mpg is pretty bad. Yikes.

Not really. I think most will support over 11k pounds of towing capacity. Will towing affect electric range? Yes. But towing effects gas truck mpg as well.

Toyota is having a hard time scaling their plug in RAV4 Prime for production. I doubt they can do anything more at the moment.

You’re talking about the hybrid releasing this fall? Adds a little bit to overall mpg range but it’s nothing too ground breaking, no plug in or EV only mode.
