Couldn’t they just have taken the batteries and put them in busses? Better yet, take the wheels off the busses and put them on some fixed track. People could stand on these underground busses on tracks propelled by electricity, cramming more in.

In what universe is a Forester, at 182”, considered “huge”?!

I was going to say Outback, but definitely something Subaru-y. 

I just commented above, but basically: it depends on your application. For my life, and many peoples’, vertical space is as or more important than horizontal space. Lack of vertical space was why I got rid of a Sportwagen. 

As a former Golf sportwagen owner, I’m gonna add an asterisk to your statement, supporting it. Cubic feet doesn’t tell the whole story.

It seems like when people hear “cash”, they’re thinking literal savings ledgers. Brokerage accounts are essentially cash equivalents; if you have a checking account with the broker those trades are liquid almost immediately.

Considering Lightening cables only last about a year anyway, this seems...annoying. 

This logic is entirely too sound for the internet. Away with you! But seriously, you’re totally right.

First they came for our illuminated Spirits, and we did not stand up.

Console buttons free up space. Designers like that. Most suburbanite car buyers don’t care about fake-stick auto transmissions.

I think the Mexican Pizza...is just a crunchwrap unwrapped. The sauce is enchilada / taco sauce. You’ve broken the code.

I get what Erik is feeling. Hitting mid-30s is the point that panic sets in: your health isn’t guaranteed anymore; your job may not be where you want it; you see other friends be more successful; you feel the pressure of running out of time both in your friendships/relationships but also in your finances; you’re not…

Extrapolate that, though...if you keep the vehicle for ten years, the used one may be worth $1500 less at trade or resale vs the one you bought new.  These are such small figures over such a long period of time, it’s essentially a wash.

I’m perpetually confused by used truck pricing that’s so close to new. Who is buying a one or two year old vehicle, with a shorter warranty and likely higher % financing, for only a few thousand less than new? Just doesn’t make sense, unless it’s a unique option combination or something. 

It’s just not always so easy. Many businesses have written criteria for remote work, including where or how far you’re allowed to be. I’m a Fed, we’re only allowed to telework a max of 150 miles from our office. 

Let’s simplify this article a bit:

Dude, I get it. I understand your position - I came very close to buying a used RX and still kinda want a LS. There’s no debate that Lexus is a phenomenal preowned car to buy and will be reliable and comfortable and treat you well. But that’s not the point I’m trying to make.

Do your customers explain why they’re choosing the UX over, say, a X2 or GLA or even XC40? I totally get buying a Lexus if you’re buying - I’ve strongly considered it recently. However, it just doesn’t make the same sense to me from a leasing perspective, especially since the Germans are notorious for fluffing their…

I own a JLR product out of warranty. I’m not foolish enough to try to defend their “initial quality” 😆

I mean, alright maybe. But BMW/MB/Audi give loaners for warranty work. At least all my dealers do.
