That’s I-676 he’s on, (the Vine Street Expressway, also the shortest interstate in the nation IIRC) that connects 76 to I-95.

You mean resale value, reliability, NVH, refinement, cost of ownership, etc?
Don’t Camrys outsell Chargers in the US by something like 5 to one?
“I apologize to anyone who took my comments the wrong way” is the most dickish non-apology anyone can say. Fuck that guy.
Re: 1st gear: your article doesn’t say that sales is where the huge turnover is, not the rest of positions in dealerships
A 340i starts at $48k, before options. So no, even with the markup it’s not in that territory.
IIRC - Honda has done 3 colors for US-market Si models (black, white, red) going back generations to the first Si they sold here around 1987. I had a white ‘87 Si, then a black ‘89 then a teal ‘93. They added that teal green for Si models around ‘89.
Yup. When I lived south of L.A., brand new low to midline BMWs and Audis were the Corollas and Civics of Orange County. Bellybutton cars - everyone had one, and/or a (usually 2wd) 3/4 ton crewcab truck lifted so far into the sky as to need a stepladder to get in. Pre-real estate crash, that place had the shiniest,…
I-95 is not a one lane road
In other countries - like the UK, for instance - the highway speed limit for towing is often very low and rigidly enforced. The UK also allows significantly less tongue weight for towing vehicles. These differences are why smaller tow vehicles and higher trailer weight limits for those smaller tow vehicles are allowed…
Well, sorta. Torque moves those semis, which also have 12 and 18 speed transmissions with high/low splitters (IIRC).
1)This relates to the pictured Tahoe how?
It’s software and a button. It removes at least 6 points of failure for the parking brake system, and four for the service brakes - while leaving one - the button. The more you think about your argument, the less sense it makes.
That’s the safest way to go. I also have the selling dealer do all the maintenance and repair on the car while it’s under warranty, so that if there’s a problem there’s no arguing who made the mistake or shifting the blame to someone else. That came in handy when the dealer mechanic failed to tighten a spark plug…
The Danville PD is totally full of shit. Chevy police vehicles are designed to idle for hours in the hottest parts of the country with the A/C on full blast with no overheating. They use heavy duty cooling parts just for this purpose, usually bigger and more coolers, fans, sturdier hoses and heavier duty alternators…
Yup. One inspection I did at my shop (not a PPI, sadly) was a buy-here-pay-here car lot GM sedan that had been welded together from two different-year wrecks. Didn’t run right (surprise!), had 124 trouble codes in the ECU when I checked it on the scanner (!!!!).
Also:
Warranty approval of the type you’re referring to - in writing or otherwise - from dealership service personnel is meaningless, since corporate decides what warranty claims they’ll pay for, above some relatively low dollar limit set by corporate.
I’m sorry you found out the hard way that only corporate makes the decision to pay significant warranty claims or not. As a three time former dealer service manager (NYC, LA and SF area), I’ve had that conversation with customers many times - both before and after they have mods done.
No, I’m not talking about long haul trucks. Those don’t make retail deliveries. Try again.
