My beloved 2016 V60 Polestar was ruined by the choice to change from the prototype’s 500+HP and 6spd manual to the production’s 345hp and 6spd auto.

I will have you know I drive 900 miles a day in sub zero temperature up hills both ways towing my camper, boat, a horse trailer, cattle trailer, and 3 jet skis, and dont have time to take multiple stops to charge my vehicle damnit. 

The Honda S2000.

Alpine A110

These kind of cars fit probably 75-80% of all use cases for the average urban/suburban/exurban commuter but people act like we’re ripping the farm trucks out of their hands because they’re the one guy who tows horses for 2000 miles a week. 

Potato potato. Either way it seems firmly to be 300 miles or more and that is all anyone needs for daily life. Except for 98% of the posters o this forum who demand 600 mile range per tank of gas for all their Real American needs. 

Car : All Teslas

Tesla Model 3. I like the size, the price, the exterior styling, and could, I guess, live with the interior. I can afford it, and in 2 or 3 years will likely be looking for something electric. But the company owner is a deal breaking flaw for me (and especially my wife).

I’d love to bike or take my moped to work. The problem is that the most direct route is all highway for about 10 total miles. Surface streets is 14 miles, half on 40mph roads. Also, western NY winters. 

Sorry but this is flat wrong. I work in sustainability, doing what’s called ‘environmental life cycle assessment’. These are studies of the environmental impact of things throughout their entire life cycle (resource extraction, manufacture, use, maintenance, repair, end-of-life). EVs are better than ICEs across the…

I think if you ask a lot of people they wouldn’t list eco friendliness of EVs as being a top reason for purchasing EVs. I’ve owned EVs for 7 years and it isn’t even my top 2 reasons.

• EVs are more eco-friendly. Even if your electricity is generated 100% by coal/natural gas it’s still better for the environment due to increased efficiency with a larger turbine generating the energy vs a tiny one in an ICE. on top of that because electricity is agnostic you can charge it anywhere without needing to…

Too bad it didn’t sell well. It’s an amazing all around value.

I never thought I’d like a Buick before the age of 70, but the Regal TourX was a really nice looking car.

The last TSX wagon from around 2010 has started to turn into a sort of modern classic. Really attractive design, decent driving dynamics, tons of practicality and reliability. They bottomed out in price a few years back and have been steadily pulling more money than you’d think an entry-level Acura from a decade ago…

I actually disagree on the Golf. It’s a shape and form factor that just works, and I like that its evolutionary instead of revolution. It has mostly stayed true to the original iteration. In contrast to the Jetta, which used to be sort of aspirational and upscale, now it’s just dull and generic.

No, it’s “I.”

“Call for Price”  No way that is going for MSRP.  

This is the car you try to flip. Not the one you paid post-flip money for.

I’ll admit I’m not the financial expert here, but my understanding is that the 30-day nature of these loans makes any sort of truth in lending page confusing at best and deceitful at worst. It keeps rolling over into a new loan until you pay it off, but the terms of the loan are month-to-month.
