You’re reading too much into my question. I’m not suggesting they should or should not. It’s a legitimate question. If these dealers don’t have access to other VAG products (and I don’t know if they do/do not), why are they insisting access to Scout?

THIS. My non-car buddy asked me what I thought of the 4th gen Pathfinder. I go on and on how it’s a neutered POS. Then he sends me a pic of the 4th gen Pathfinder he bought a few days earlier...

Never recommending a car to a non car person is excellent advise!

Bradley has proven for years that his take is the only correct take.  Just ask him.

It’s early in ithe day but I’m spending all my internet anger points on this. Cars are a thing. People like to do things to them. It’s their property and their money.

So, they didn’t even empty his pockets before tossing him in a hole? I can’t tell if this is the result of brazen indifference or utter stupidity. If the former, I’d be checking all of the other graves in that cemetery because it seems like those cops are treating pauper graves like the Vegas mob treats holes in the…

It’s not the best coverage if they dig in and refuse to pay out. 

State Farm is the cheapest with the best coverage.

I think those gauge faces are from Crusin’ USA.

You took the words out of my mouth when you wrote “no way, just for the fake S alone”.

I also remember before the private equity firm Great Hill Partners bought Gizmodo Media.

Yeah, the "I shouldn't have grabbed your phone" part screamed victim of abuse to me. Unless the next part of that read, "because I lost my balance and smashed my face on the ground" it certainly sounds like a victim apologizing to their abuser.

While this is promising - the story doesn’t quite line up with the the headline, you know?
