My boss once told me the PT Cruiser was the only car he would refuse to ride in. And then came the day we had to go to LA on a business trip...I’d travel first and he’d come a day later. At the car rental agency they asked if I’d like the Hyundai Sonata or the PT Cruiser. Hell yeah, the PT Cruiser if the boss is…

As opposed to a real microbus that can’t get you cross country without adding 3 days fixing it. And another three because you’re driving 45mph

I’ve been in love with this car since it was new. That said, this one is a piece of shit.

I found a hammer in the door panel of my Audi Coupe. I bought the car used, so there’s no way of knowing if it’s an OEM hammer, but I can’t think of any sort of door fix a hammer might help with other than getting things unstuck whilst taking the whole door apart.

THIS is what I love about this site. When I first started coming here I was a little surprised that car enthusiasts would admit to the minivans, PT Cruisers, Saturns, etc they own, but that’s the magic...a car site where the best isn’t always the best.

I went to high school with a guy who drove one, a car-guy with resources. I was a car-guy, but with absolutely ZERO resources, other than my imagination. I remember thinking if I’d have been in his shoes I’d be driving a Triumph or MGB-GT. Thirty years later I would definitely choose the Karmann Ghia.

I didn’t want it until I saw the 6

If only Lincoln and Cadillac would have made pickups, we’d know exactly how this will go over.

And they’re fun to drive

I had a 2000 Volvo XC with a five cylinder motor. They gave it a small turbo, not to make it fast, just to give it enough hp to cope with the modern world. I think that’s the trouble with the Subaru 2.0...it’s just not quite enough, and needs a nudge.

I think its because the banks are closed

I WANT that car, contingent on an extended warranty

as a kid I would stare out the side window, imagining myself on a motocross bike hitting whatever terrain flew by. Huge jumps over rivers, horrible crashes into bridge abutments. But endless “extra lives”. Now...rule of thumb is DON’T LOOK AT THE ODOMETER. If you feel the urge to figure out how much travel is…

Maybe the best thing it to hedge your bets by choosing a car now, one with a manual, and keeping it forever.

I’ve heard that using the proper octane will give you just enough better gas mileage that it offsets the cost. I totally believe this is BS, but it’s another variable to add to the bouillabaisse. 

Yeah, that’s way different. My dealer messed up, I called it out on the survey (could’ve gone off on the service guy, decided to let his boss do it instead). The service guy called me, took full responsibility, and thanked me for starting a conversation within the dealership on how things like this should be handled…

Titus needs to disinfect now too

Evidently. This last time when I had an oil change I got THREE surveys, which also pissed me off. Seriously, THREE?! I mean, I got an oil change from a place that does oil changes and they didn’t fug it up. Yay them! five stars! :-|

I will go elsewhere is MUCH better. But I paid for oil changes when I got the car, so I would have had to pay twice by going someplace different. Painful either way, but $ was the bottom line.

I absolutely RIPPED my dealer on a survey when they messed up servicing my car. Next time in they treated me like the owner’s son.
