I am also in the biz.

Makes sense, and your list is very on topic.  I hope you did not take my comment as an attack.  It was more about my expectations rather than the list’s choice of sort priority.  I’m glad you posted it.

He may not sell snacks but hopefully the bathrooms are open so I can Citgo otherwise there is gonna be Sheetz EVERYWHERE.

Neat.

“A lot of them pull up and get upset,” Doley tells the outlet.

Ok, but Tesla is in the last gasp of tax credit qualification ($1875 this quarter, $0 next quarter), while this still qualifies for the full $7500 credit.

Let’s see...30K for an EV with 114 miles of range, or 39K for an EV with 250 miles of range, the best adaptive cruise-control and lane-keeping system available, a nationwide network of chargers and periodic updates that make the car better over time?

We get it, you drive a Tesla... and lets not act like $8.5k is chump change (before tax credits) when you are playing in the $30k price area.

I went to the Sac auto show last weekend and yes, it’s definitely second rate, but it kind of sums up Sacramento anyway. Since I’m too lazy to make the drive to the LA auto show, this will have to do.

Rodents are NOT INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS

True, but the reason is a little more nuanced than that. The real truth is that a salesperson who has to provide a price quote remotely already knows that if this sale goes off without a hitch, and is extremely easy to carry out, the most they’ll make is a mini.

The title is reported as clean and amazingly, this heavily reconfigured car with an engine older than its body seems to have been able to make its way through California’s labyrinthian registration and emissions certification process. Hell, it even has a Golden State license plate that celebrates that feat.

I want to see the state of California BAR sticker. Big CP

And out of all states, it’s registered in California. I know that with the right tools, DME hacks, and a good-ol-fashioned corrupt smog tech, you can squeak certain swaps through. But this one? Yeah...no.
