I drive a 1500, and most of my friends have 1500 or 2500 trucks. With rare exception, we’re not buying them to impress anybody or prove our manhood (or womanhood - many girls I know drive trucks). Shoot, in the recent past I’ve had a Prius, a C-Max, and a Mini convertible, and I could still grill a steak, catch a…

I daily drive a 1500. It’s a little tight in a few parking lots, but otherwise it’s a delight. I like to take friends with me - no grown adults want to sit in the back of a mid-size truck. I hate riding in my friend’s new Ranger and always offer to drive. Also, there’s no way I’d want to tow my 5500 lb boat (fairly…

To the other excellent replies, let me add that some of us like to see different lakes from time to time.  I regularly tow my boat to 3 different lakes, depending on my mood and where I think other people won’t be that day.

Yes, a Starquest is a car I might actually spend money on.

This was probably the best version of this car in 1986, and I would guess it’s the nicest Laser on the road today. But even when this was new, I imagine you only bought one if you really wanted a Camaro but were raised in a “Mopar or no car” house. ND for me. Would be fun at half the price if you have a real 80’s…

I’ve owned about 20 cars, but have somehow managed to never trade one in. I’ve let them quote me a time or too, but I always do several $1,000 better selling private.  I always try and buy private too, especially because here in AZ you avoid sales tax.  It’s tough to do though, especially on newer/nicer vehicles.

I have a good friend who left the car business completely because of the things he was told to do as a finance manager at that store.

I would pay $4500 for a clean, unmodified example.  ND for a turbo built by someone who placed such a high priority on running the BOV through the hood.

With color-matched wheels. It was called the Cayman package. My dad briefly considered buying it for me new, but came to his senses unfortunately. It’s on my list of cars to get one day. 

I’ve white-knuckled it into the gas station more than a couple of times (a lot of people don’t realize that you can squeeze gas out of the steering wheel), but have never run out.

Lots of great 70's Toyotas for sure. Most Datsuns were really great - 240z, 510, 620 pickups, even the little 1200 wasn’t bad.  But the B210 and the F10 are among the most visually displeasing cars ever.

B210 has to be one of the ugliest cars ever made.  This one is a little redeemed in that it has the alloys instead of the stock hubcaps, again, among the ugliest ever made.  I’ve hated those things since I was 3.

Chevy is smart to finally lower the MSRP - if they’re just going to discount it anyway, they might as well make the comparisons more realistic.

At least here, around $1000 to buy the box and pay an electrician to add the requisite plug.

A couple of months ago I saw a private sale Bolt pop up for $10k. Couldn’t get to it fast enough.  Not even sure what I would have done with it, but at that price it seemed risky NOT to buy it.

The actual price gap between a Bolt and Tesla is much greater in the real world. You can usually lease a Bolt under $250/month before local incentives; the cheapest Model 3 is twice that. If you prefer to purchase, Chevy will put a pile of money on the hood, where Tesla will do nothing to reduce the price.

Probably 14 years ago we lived in rural NE CO and experienced once of the biggest snowstorms ever there.  Not enough plows to go around, so the roads were dicey.  I needed to get to work, and my trusty Sequoia got me around pretty well.  About 3 days into it, one of our neighbors called my wife and said they were…

And not even think that any part of that is unusual...

My first college girlfriend I think started talking to me because of my Infiniti G20. At the time, it was a pretty nice car for a college kid and punched above its weight. That turned out bad. Learned that you don’t want that girl.

My wife doesn’t use ventilated seats very much because she says they make her feel like she already peed her pants, but she hits the seat heater button like a reflex. I think it’s the only thing she knows how to operate in my truck.
