That’s a pretty common story for classic cars, honestly. Someone wants one, buys one - puts a ton of money into restoring it... and then finds that living with even a properly sorted and well running classic car is an uncomfortable hassle. So it sits in the garage for the rest of its life.

Those are the family cars. The vette/porsche are for meeting up with the boys. It’s not supposed to make sense when you have more money than sense. 

Nice price for one reason: target buyer.

The problem in my area with guys with diesel pickups is rolling coal.  I wish they would get nailed for modifying their fuel systems for that crap!

Debit cards? Stop being so poour!

Given the difficulty of getting approved for credit cards, or the financial outlay required to get a secured credit card, versus just having a debit card attached to your existing bank account that requires no further validation or approval, I’d say the difference between them and you is your privilege.

Yup. Could have just gotten a couple of Australians to work on a Model X with a sawzall.  Instant ute.

I can’t imagine ever accumulating more than $10 million or so. Unless my money was “earning” more money faster than I could spend it.

Wild how you don’t know/talk about the fact that all Senators but Manchin and Sinema voted to end the filibuster and Manchin’s pro-life anyway.

A 5-speed Fit is far more peppy and fun to drive than it has any right to be...

“STOP BUYING THINGS! WASTING YOUR MONEY! ARGLEBARGLE!!”

Eh, I’ve got a vehicle that does quite nicely off road and doesn’t look like shit. Current-gen Tacoma, arguably the only decent looking truck available in the US at the moment. Most of the rest look like cinderblocks with wheels, or angry cinderblocks with wheels.

Because “Millennials be shopping” is such a reliable, go-to trope to smokescreen the stagnation of wages while costs are skyrocketing.
