A “killer” rate, you say?

Or cars continue to rust and leak toxic chemicals into the soil and you cant sell because your house is in the next Live Canal.

When you look at it on a day to day level, I agree with you, for the most part. A person who collects cars in their yard can be a nice person, or a total asshole. Collecting, in and of itself, doesn’t really say anything about the person.

If your job wanted you to transfer to a worksite where people weren’t showing up for fear of catching COVID, would you make the trip?

That’s actually more than likely what GM would be doing- the relocation to Wentzville is a temporary measure, and given the clout of the UAW I’d be shocked if GM wasn’t reimbursing (or providing) temporary living arrangements and offering hazard pay.

You crave reading long missives about random men hoarding shitty vehicles?  I’m sorry.

The only vehicle in this whole list that’s actually interesting is the Crossfire, because it’s a weird vehicle that’s not totally ugly, totally awful or totally busted.

If you are going to be the worst neighbor in the universe and drive the whole neighborhood’s property values down by turning yours into a junkyard, live in a neighborhood with no HOA! Then nobody can say shit to you.

the seating position was horrible and it felt like the seat would come undone at any moment. talk about disappointing

Seats felt identical to my gf’s 2010 kia soul.

Awesome. You’ve got yourself a great project; it runs really well! I threw some Sta-Bil in the tank, so hopefully it won’t give you TOO much grief. Maybe have someone fire it up every now and again to keep the carb from gumming up?

Here is the new home for the Grand Wagoneer for the next year and a few months. My family actually managed to fit it in the garage. It will soon be full of parts I will need to install when I get back stateside. Thanks again DT. 

Here’s the thing about 15 minute cities: They’re terrible.

You may not realize it but the complaint made against you was the best thing that could have happened.

Not that it matters much, but I am thoroughly impressed with the progress that you’ve made. I hope that with the sale of the XJ you will find some way to pick up (no pun intended) that Willy’s truck you posted about earlier in the week. That is something worth getting a hold of, who knows with the Golden Eagle and…

That still doesn't solve the issue of how they became homeless in the first part. Mental health and addiction are a huge part of the homeless problem, and until we take solving those issues seriously, free housing isn't going to solve much.

That goes for any formerly expensive older European car though - and really, any expensive car from anywhere. Even old Lexus are not cheap to fix, nor are they that much more amazingly reliable when they are old and gray. If you have to pay someone else to do the work, you probably can’t afford to own it. But if you…

How about leasing 2, one that you keep in the garage as an investment

I can top it: My ex leased a Chevy Trax. I’d call it a piece of shit, but that would be disrespectful to pieces of shit.

Everybody always acts like the bags are the one and only fail point in the EAS. Yeah those are pretty affordable aftermarket but, as the owner of multiple LR’s (all pre 2000), the EAS was a veritable nightmare well beyond the bags. Leveling sensors that failed, compressors that went out, and valves that malfunctioned a…
