This is ABSOLUTELY the time to buy if you’re so inclined to “need” a truck like this. A few years ago it would probably be being offered for $25k. It’s not my taste but if you tow a camper, not a bad deal. 

I would love to see something fairly aggressive from the United States. Say, a 85% point-of-sale rebate for all EVs under $50,000 that phases out above $80,000. None of this tax rebate stuff, nothing that requires a deferred payment.

No turbo no deal.

Aren’t these usually double or triple this price?Crappy gas mileage can’t be reducing the value that much since it’s unlikely this car will ever be a daily driver.  This is a suspicious NP vote, if everything checks out.

State laws are wild. I was going off this:

I had assumed that most states (that allowed private retail sale of alcohol) were like this - that that couldn’t limit alcohol sales (and frequently prescription sales) to members only. Although there seems to be very few states that actually allow private alcohol sales so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good lord, that’s how I read it too. It took me seeing your comment, rereading the headline, rereading your comment, and then going letter by letter in the headline to figure out what it actually said.

PA is nice and just charges you tax on the actual sales price, but you have to sign an affidavit with an explanation if the sales price differs from the NADA value. 

The Disco 5 is 195” or thereabouts. This is longer at 211”.

Agree, though I was in HS in the early 00s and nobody had these, I don’t think. Lots of Grand Prix/Am, Tempos, and K-cars, but I can’t recall any Luminas. Maybe they’d all have rotted away by then…

Remember five years ago when NA Miatas could be had for about as much as it now costs to fill up your gas tank? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

As someone who lives in high humidity and burns easily, the best convertible for *summer* is something with a roof and good air conditioning. Convertible season is October through early December and like two days in mid May 😂

Honestly Oz beating McCormick will be the best thing for Fetterman. PA republicans tend to skew more fiscally conservative than socially conservative (insomuch as wanting to impose their social will on others), so as a fairly pro-business Democrat, Fetterman may win them over. I hope.

How much “acting” will it really be, though? I’m hoping it’s just Cara and Selena channeling 2014 vibes. 

I was angry at myself when I didn’t buy one when they were like $6k. Then I was angry at myself that I didn’t buy one when they were like $10k. I soon will be angry at myself for not buying one when they are $15k etc repeat until death. 

The BMW diesels are “reliable” in the sense that you probably won’t be broken down on the side of the road, but need expensive maintenance, oh, right around this mileage. Plus the ZF trans starts acting weird if it’s never been maintained…right around this mileage. Plus engine mounts and anything else made of rubber.…

Unfortunately I like to vacation in OCMD so it’s a difficult proposition to own a GTI :D

I really wanted to buy a CPO Giulia or Stelvio but they’re just too much $$ for too little. To get any real features you’re looking at spending more than a comparable CPO BMW or Audi which…nah.

Comfortable seats. I know, crash standards and all that blah blah blah, but there hasn’t been a comfy, plush car seat since they stopped making the Town Car. 

Compare Toyota to Honda, Ford, Chevy, whatever. They definitely have more semi-similar models within their lineup than the rest. Not counting hybrids, the Crown will be their 8th CUV (RIP Land Cruiser) on sale vs. Honda with 4, Ford with 6 (not RIP Ecosport), and Chevy with 7 (although that counts the Trax).
