Yeah, I wonder if anyone has tried to get some data on how much of this:

I strongly disagree. I used to live in Northern VA/the DC metro area. What you’re describing certainly exists. There were a handful of people that loved the urban life and the proximity of things they wanted to do. The majority hated how crowded and expensive everything was. It was common for people to talk about…

Agreed. This is neither philosophical nor theoretical—just follow the money. Businesses who are discovering, through the circumstances forced upon them, that they could have been operating with remote employees will now continue to do so to reduce real estate costs and employee salaries.

I am also not convinced that the flight away from urban centers and mass transit is a long term trend

Are you one of those overpriveleged “cyclists” who ride right on top the white line nearest to traffic causing cars to cross over the double yellows and into oncoming traffic? Do you ride with a bunch of “friends” in a large crowd instead of a single file line to slow down cars and traffic on purpose? Do you obey the…

Let’s just say I’m in a part of the country where the state of public transportation is such that if you’re riding a bike and not decked out in Spandex or actively on a trail it is assumed you’ve gotten one too many DUIs.  The used bike market ain’t awesome.

Old men never forget

Yes, as a matter of fact I do. If you are stating this is the most expensive model from this make, I think the specs of this car are important, especially in this context. Speaking of facts, if this is indeed automotive journalism it should have some information to back up statements like “ It seems like every time…

If this is a car enthusiast site, why doesn’t this piece of journalistic excellence have any spec at all about this car except the year the car was bought? This article is a cheeseball. Seems nutritious but not very filling and leaves you requiring something more.

I bought one in 2001 that had 8500 miles on it. Ripped motor and trans out almost immediately.  For the little bit I started and ran it, it looked like someone poked holes everywhere. It was an estate sale and I got the GN cheap. Never understood NOT driving something like that until I bought one.. LOL

As an old geezer who was a teenage car nerd in the 80’s, please let me explain the phenomenon of stashing turbo Buicks as future collector cars that was rampant in 1986-1987. In the mid 1980’s, the automotive world was firmly ensconced in that fuzzy, depressing state called the Malaise Era. Cars were slow. Really…

John says “Lots of Headroom”

OK, but for a white collar land Yacht, up your game to Mercury.

When one must master of the roads in a land yacht, there is but one choice... The Buick Roadmaster.

200 years of American greatness culminated in the perfect execution of the pinnacle of luxury land yachts. I present to you the 1976 Chrysler New Yorker.

Power to weight, man - this is why an 80 hp motorcycle will walk almost any production car to 60.

Trouble is - that *was* your father’s Oldsmobile. They weren’t fooling anyone with that nonsense.

You are right, but... wages did not keep up with inflation. And that’s the only metric that matters.

There is SOME hope for humanity there. But on the other hand, we all do eventually turn into our parents. Or grandparents, in my case (I’m not ashamed to admit that).
