My wife’s V70 I picked up for $425 and drove it home with almost no brakes- 10 days and 1400 worth of parts later it was on the road and has been reliable for 4.5 years only needing brake rotors due to corrosion and today a new battery due to -24c

Probably will save them money on warranty issues- I remember a buddy bought a Civic SI, I went for a ride with him when it had under 100km and he was thrashing it up to the redline, said the salesman told him to drive it like he stole it.

Stelantis may have the Hellpanda

Tires will be a weird size only available from Apple and will have chips in them that will ensure the car cant drive unless it has Apple tires

Maybe showing that corrupt politicians are okay in his books

And he stole it from Trump supporters too

ha ha he said churn

My MGA had a Webasto sunroof - it got slashed to steal the stereo- the car was unlocked and the stereo didn’t work

Buddy got a car this way and I ended up driving it- unknowingly
