I just view it as Thanks Porsche for supporting this site. I have become immune to ads anywhere on the internet. In my years of visiting here, I have purchased two of one item from the daily sale. They were Anker bluetooth units for the lighter socket in my older cars.

Part of the additional driving is related to the changing business climate and the perception that employees are interchangeable parts. In 1994 and earlier there was still a perception that work was a long term relationship. That has eroded significantly.

Most of these will be near the absolute top end of her range. This one is seems a nice price for the miles.  With a used vehicle also comes higher interest rates.

Our 2016 Forester gets 28/32 city/highway with 74K miles on it. Its roughly the same mileage as our 2010 with 175K. The MSRP on a reasonably equipped Premium level is $26.7K plus any discounts available with the dealer.

It’s GM. Why can’t they just rebadge a re-skinned, beefy looking new Blazer and call it the H2? The new Trailblazer could provide the underpinnings for a manly looking H3. The vast majority of the original Hummers were street cruisers. They already have their business model for re-releasing old nameplates with the new…

The body kit is criminal.  First offense is the front.  Second is the rear.  Third is the fart can.  Three strikes for a car that deserved better.  Trying to improve the original car’s looks in this era of RX-7 is a fool’s mission.  Executing it poorly is even worse.  The color is even off.

Libby is great!  Hoopla also offers ebooks and other free loans with library cards.

Try being a teetotaling, non-sports fan, non-golfing male who is a manager. It doesn’t work so well either. It also doesn’t help if one thinks casinos are a waste of money and has no idea which poker hand wins.

Um:

He really does inhale.

The buying experience has never prevented me from buying a car.  Overall, I have had some very positive experiences.

I’m still waiting for school buses, transit buses, mail delivery vehicles, and short-haul trucks to be converted to EV’s at any true level of adoption. If any markets were perfect for this change, these are the ones with routine routes and consistent storage locations for changing. If they were part of the every day…

This started out mid-May for $28K on eBay. It’s back on eBay for the Craigslist price, and has been on the German Cars for Sale Blog.

Last Sunday was the 2nd not yesterday.

Southwest and Alaska are two radically different airlines.  It’s an interesting thought, but I don’t think there is a culture match there.

For me, American is the worst. I travel 100-150 days a year for business. They are pathetic. Last week, they canceled a 7am Sunday flight for “local weather issues” the prior evening. I live in the town, there was no weather incident the prior evening. They canceled the next flight (noonish). They moved the flight…

The airlines could fix this tomorrow, by preventing seats from reclining.  It is a jerk behavior.

Yes, jet fuel vs diesel fuel is probably a wash. They are both made from crude oil. Why would the oil and gas lobby care?

The interior is beat. I can’t imagine paying this money for a demanding exotic and looking at the mess of the ripped leather around the stereo disaster every time I sat in the car. I also can’t imagine the previous owner who liked or could look at the result of the stereo swap.

These things were absolute turds when new. To this day, one I rented for an early business trip in New Jersey was the most terrifying car rental I have had in almost four decades of business travel. It was scary at highway speeds on the New Jersey Turnpike, and speed limits were much lower in those days. As it got…
