I need a car with a kilometerometer.
I need a car with a kilometerometer.
I neeeeaaaaarly bought one of these in the mid ‘90's, but balked back then because the price was...$5000. I kind of regret it, because the cheaper car I bought instead ended up costing much more than 5k in repairs, but I digress. I love these and wish I would have bought one, but this particular example looks like…
Looks more like Tron. So retro!
If I had a Delorean I’d drive it...ahem...from time to time.
I keep hearing horror stories, yet I can’t make it to the corner without seeing one on the road.
I had the same dilemma a year ago. We ended up getting her a 2003 Acura MDX for $6000. This is the era where they had some transmission issues, but in our case it had been repaired, though even if it hadn’t been fixed the car was 15 years old and still drove well. We put some money into it...timing belt, brakes, etc,…
My camper van has an external spare that has a cover, a metal ring around the tire with a plastic saucer sort of thing. Well, one day it broke. It was pushed outwards by the spare tire’s air bulging through the cords. Apparently metal gets hot in the desert.
Yikes! Closest to this I’ve ever dealt with was camping at the top of a 12' cliff above a creek. The rain came down and the wind picked up...literally. We were being lifted off the floor when the wind blew under the tent. But the stakes stayed staked and we didn’t blow away, but the next morning we woke up and the 12'…
It’s the point of diminishing returns. You take GOOD pictures, but you still have time left in your day. That TV isn’t going to watch itself.
We didn’t even try the CRV. Being seen in one is like telling the world you’ve run out of ideas.
Nah, the turbo was pushing the top limit of our $ range, and my wife kept asking “why are we even here, I love my Subaru”. Apparently the answer“to test drive cars we probably won’t buy” doesn’t make sense to her.
Batman chic
My wife has the last gen XT, and before her lease is up I talked her into looking at the new Rav 4 hybrid and the CX5. Rav4...she said it doesn’t seem different than her XT, and the extra MPG wasn’t worth the extra $ over buying the XT at the end of the lease, especially since her lifetime average with the car is…
Star from me!
Don’t forget the weather. On a clear day, weekend ski traffic is horrible on I-70. This weekend? Snow totals...
Bluetooth music is two thumbs-up, but I get weird connection issues on occasion. But it seems my wife doesn’t have that problem, once I ended up driving her car and she was following behind in another car. Each time we hit a light and she pulled up behind me her phone connected.
My mom had an ‘84 Jetta with the Wolfsberg package. That car was going to be mine until she nosed too far into an intersection and had it taken off by a truck. The car’s nose, not my mom’s. Oh, and my dad had a ‘67 Mustang which had a floorboard made out of a cookie sheet to patch the rust hole.
Bicycles are good.
My wife and I took a sleeper car between Prague and Vienna a couple years back. It was the most wonderful way to sleep through an experience
I thought I wanted a plane until reading all of these comments. Now, not even a little bit. Maybe a train though...
