I think that $25k might be very generous. He paid $32k for an SUV at the same dealership that obviously raw dogged him on that Kia.

The most likely scenario is the caller didn’t get the whole story from her embarrassed husband.

Whether or not Ramsey’s advice is without any merit at all depends on the interest rate on…

Yeah 15s save a lot of money over 30s, it’s just that most people would rather get more house and go with the 30. There are definitely parts of the country where the average person will never be able to afford to buy anything on a 15, but that’s not true for most of the country.

No, that’s why I used the word possibly. I was allowing for the possibility that the way the DeLorean’s stainless was made 40 years ago might not be legal now.

Eh, I want to give some of these Musklickers a pass for this. Embracing truck damage is as old as trucks and the only other options are to not own one or be sad all the time. They didn’t invent this rationalization.

The internet says DeLorean owners use windex or steel cleaners whose names are just initials and numbers. I assume Tesla uses shittier steel that might be cost-cutting, but could also possibly be for environmental regulation reasons. But I think if wax would work well on a Cybertruck, DeLorean owners would have been…

That makes sense. Everything online about the electronics and tech is so negative right now and that configuration strips out some of the things that owners are struggling with the most.

On paper the GT Plus with the Blacktop and Tech packages is everything I want with no compromises at a competitive price. There…

If you factor in the disappointment, the crit is more understandable. 2 of my 3 all time favorite games are Skyrim and Fallout 3. Like those, I wanted SF to be a game I’ll play for the next 15 years. I have spent more minutes playing Caravan than Starfield so far this year. That gap between its potential and its…

I liked the Durango R/T and the Challenger and the 300 and the Pacifica when I got them as rentals. They are fun and/or nice when they are at least new-ish. But I wouldn’t buy one. The Hornet fits my lifestyle best out of everything Stellantis sells and I love it on paper. If they ever work out the kinks and I can…

How is the Hornet selling? I don’t see any incentives on it, which usually makes me think there’s demand. But I still haven’t seen one on the road and I live in a huge city.

That’s how I feel, too. I saw one of these on the highway and it looked great.

It’s a play on Hamlet’s To Be Or Not To Be monologue. It doesn’t help that there’s a typo in it.

no crank can just be the starter or the battery tho.

Shittily done, but yes.

It says right in the article that they are only selling it because their circumstances have changed and they are going to be living mostly in NYC where cars aren’t necessary and are much more expensive to keep.

Leaking AC and coolant system tho. I worry that this thing has been overheated, and AC repairs seem like they are always at least a $2k fix.

I’m too much of a chicken to buy even the non-hybrid Hornet GT until it establishes a reputation. It’s been a year and I haven’t seen a single one of them on the road. I still don’t know if it’s a heap right out of the box.

Malicious libel. The result is the opposite of cramming.

Yes, that’s just a little too much for me to worry about when I need to finish my job and make my flight home. I don’t know whether it’s difficult or easy or how close to fully charged they need it to be not to charge me. I just don’t want to think or worry about that when I’m on the road for work.

I didn’t see any capacity numbers. Are there actually more seats on the plane with this change or just more room for the same number of passengers?

Yes, I had to look it up I hadn’t heard of it. It looks like they were still selling it in Indonesia last year and are selling a similar sized vehicle under the same name in Japan this year but built in India.
