You can’t go wrong with a Seiko 5. Cheap, rugged, good looking automatic. Can be had for about 50-60 bucks. Comes in a bunch of varities if this style is not your thing.

Come on now Bradley, how can any list talking about good affordable watched not include the Seiko SKX007? It is the definitive mechanical watch in this price range, even high end watch snobs respect the 007. It’s also infinitely customizable if you’re into that sort of thing.

Awww, lol. I really liked this one.

Keep it simple.

I guess it depends. But when you only get 10 PTO days a year and that’s where your vacation and sick days are pooled....a lot of people come to work sick.

The lien isn’t the issue for me. I just bought a car which had a lien on it, and we easily took care of it. Not uncommon on a newer car. People get loans. They sell the car before the term is up. No big thing.

There are some goofy things in the ad, like the $44K asking price but the implication he’ll take $35K, yet…

A lien on a newer or more expensive vehicle is pretty common. I doubt that is the issue, more than likely the potential buyers couldn’t get a loan or weren’t serious buyers to begin with. The last vehicle I bought was through a private seller and had a lien on it. My bank just cut 2 checks, 1 for the amount still owed…

Liens aren’t a big deal. I’ve bought quite a few cars with them. You just have to do your homework.

What’s wrong with the lien? Have you never bought a vehicle that had a lien on it? Typically you head straight to the lien-holding-bank with the current owner and do the entire process there. That’s the best way to ensure you become the new title owner and don’t get screwed over. It’s easy peezy lemon squeezy.

I have a new Toyota with radar cruise control: its the best damned thing since sliced bread. It maintains the speed I set it at OR slows down for the jack leg in front of me that is speeding up or slowing down.

I was in an Acura TLX and it actually had an ingenious solution where the headlights reset to “auto” every time the car is turned off.

Rolls-Royces never had particularly-impressive power figures, if you’re looking at sheer numbers. But that’s because they prioritize other things.

Damn, my real takeaway is that your mortgage payment was only $550...

As a service provide, I really disliked these routers. As an end user, I imagine the experience to be different... not saying these are bad, but from the position of having to go into a house and setup and troubleshoot our CPE, it was a pain.

Every software update and new version of Airport Utility made it marginally less and less useful. If you had multiple gaming consoles it became basically useless, as it shoved one into a Closed NAT every single time.

I could also be one of those pedant owners to whom $3500 for every trip to the service department ain’t no thang, but the idea of having the best living example of a rare car means a lot more.

One small point of disagreement. I would put the transmission in Comfort mode as well, because if you leave it in Sport mode or whatever it’ll make the engine just sit there, clattering away at 6000 RPM while you cruise on the highway just in case you need a SPEED BOOST.

Yup, site states: models with fewer than 10,000 cars sold were excluded

That’s my thinking, it’s just a tiny percentage of cars in the grand scheme so it doesn’t even register, even though it artificially skews the data such that the study should really be called “The most popular cars that last the longest”

WHY is it so hard to find your list or Continue Watching sometimes? It’s maddening.
