The Lawyers will benefit. That’s about all I got.

$10 isn’t much of a trade-in

Veloster N was my first thought. I test drove one recently. I’m only 5'10, but the seat was set for someone a whole lot bigger when I got in. Also, with the asymmetrical doors, any third occupant you may have can only get in on the passenger side (where the giant is not in residence), but you still have access to it

Ford execs deferring salary until debt is paid, so they can increase future stock payments.... and then still pull in the salary on the back end. They’re just maximizing personal profit, sacrificing nothing. How very noble.

Good to see Harley underrated range. It’s a 120 mile round trip to the nearest L3 charger in my area. So that’ll need to improve. 

Note on the APR question. Going through a credit union can potentially be a different experience. I’ve financed several (used) cars through the same CU, and they now give me an un-advertised rate because of my history and credit score.

I see Raphael has a second account

Honestly, it was more of a joy ride than a test drive. I just wanted to get behind the wheel of one after all of the praise it’s gotten. It’s a lot of fun, that’s about all I was looking for at the time. It does beg to be played with. After a hard pull, you get the *pop-crackle-pop* that translates from vehicle-ese

That has historically been Hyundai’s problem (coming from a former Tiburon and Genesis Coupe owner). Though, I’ve test driven the Veloster N, and that stick is great.

There are currently 1,001 Jalops that need a wellness check. They’ve been secluded for too long and are developing cabin fever.

I hope the new Bronco is everything it should be with a decent price and high volume. If only to bring Jeep values down to Earth a bit. Every one I see is priced ridiculously.... and they apparently keep selling.

We just have to ride this situation out.

In my area, anything AWD/4wd is $2500 and up. And those are usually fright-pigs. Something like this in pretty decent shape with under 150k is easy NP.

$124,995

It may be just right. I’d agree with that. But that doesn’t mean it will sell. There’s an illogical component to any vehicle purchase. Truck sales double-down on it.

I feel like you’re right. It will be a chopped up Bronco Sport. FWD standard, AWD optional. No manual option, likely. It will appeal to none of the truck buyers, crossover buyers, or enthusiasts, and Ford will wonder why it didn’t sell.

Looks like Jimny’s American cousin.

Hopefully the “B R O N C O” is just color-matched white. Illuminated would be cheesy, but I suppose it could be turned off in some way.

They are offering more than a look... on the Bronco. This one is just offering the look, and the profit margins.

with 450+ftlb, I’m thinking that peg-leg will smoke ‘em with a literal ton in the back.
