Probably not what they had in mind when they said the wanted to “really move some inventory”

I don’t know if any Americans really call them automobiles in normal language either. Cars or vehicles are most common. We have it right when we all call train cars “cars” though. Imo

once, as I labored in the hot sun to unload my car of my child and the various accessories, a 19ish year old twat nearly knocked me over on this scooter thing while saying “you could try not blocking the sidewalk” as he zipped past not even slowing down. Which is funny because A: I obviously wasn’t blocking the…

I actually don’t get the hate. I don’t even like pickup trucks and I think most of these look fine honestly (not the CheBROlet one obviously) but the chrome or black ones with the bow tie? why not. better than the lexus grill imo

yea, “fool people” is probably the wrong wording, but the goal is definitely to match the format and copywriting of the rest of the magazine to get people to read it.

also, don’t forget there’s an entire genre of magazine ads that are “fool people into thinking this ad is a magazine article” so this probably fits squarely in that category.

because cars are status symbol purchases for a lot of people

if you haven’t considered the wild absurdity of fiat currency you simply haven’t lived

don’t forget too, if you mention where you are going before your butt is in the back seat, they will drive off on you if they don’t like where you are going.

I will concede that the cooling system is less extensive although present, so I was wrong about that. but I left out fuel filter and spark plug replacements as additional things you won’t have to do.

belts and hoses lasting 200,000 miles, thats a hard maybe

to be fair the life of an electric vehicle with permanent magnet motors should last far longer than their ICE counterparts. Also, don’t forget to subtract the cost of oil changes, transmission service, radiator flushes, belts, vacuum hoses, etc

I’m sure I’m not the first person to point this out, but maybe we are evaluating nice price or crack pipe polls all wrong.

always, except for the 2009 forward I would argue.

key worked, none of the buttons worked on the keyless entry, and it wasn’t a battery issue. sorry i worded that badly.

thats 18,000 miles per year, which really isn’t that much.

I bought a CPO chevy malibu that was almost certainly a rental (before you ask why, my wife wanted a malibu to replace her old one because she liked it) the price was excellent and it was honestly good A-B transportation.

the dirty not so secret is that no dealership actually inspects any car that is CPO. They glance at it and slap a sticker on it. A few years back I drove a bunch of “CPO” chevrolets at a dealer and every single one had glaring issues. One had a check engine light, another had a disturbing whirring noisy gearbox when…

because the rules are actually getting enforced for the first time ever?

Trucking Companies: We need more truckers, we’ll do anything. Well, except pay better, provide better benefits and improve working conditions.
