Math and professional car evaluators disagree with you

Doesn’t everyone?

It means this poll is shit. As is this clickbait article.

Yeah, I almost did, but this is a survey of the first 90 days and how happy they are with the purchase. I imagine Dodge owners are pretty happy about it while Land Rover owners are already in the shop for something in the first 90 days.

I’ve come to find out that having a shitbox car is a luxury only for the middle class. I’m middle class and daily drive an BMW e46. If I break down, my workplace is understanding. I can say “having car trouble..” and its all good. I have time and money to fix it myself, or I can take it to a shop.

He has 600... So sell the Truck, the both the Volvo’s for scrap, should possibly get him another 500 or so and then he has 1100 to buy a better car...

Sell all four for $300-$500 each. That, plus his $600, will let him buy a very decent old Toyota that will last years. Don’t fuck around with Jalop cars when you have $600 to your name.

Truly inspirational. 

Fix up the Corvair.

A fast truck...that’s electric...if only they had something for this.

Mustang name aside, this is not an attractive car.

It’s a requirement for GMG to be crystal clear in every single article that everything is political. We can’t just have fun watching an Explorer get demolished by liquid death without an equal dose of proselytizing (complete with preaching to the choir).

“thanks to climate change”

Some people here seem to be confusing a lien with a simple outstanding balance on a car loan.

You know... you changed my mind on this one. I was CP all day - base model Stealth is all show and no go, after all - but I don’t have a teenager in the house either. This is ideal for a teen driver for that exact reason, it looks cool but there are a ton of factors that make it hard for them to get into trouble.

This is the equivalent of a base Mustang of that era, you wanted the looks but didn’t want to pay for the performance.

“the Gladiator... Probably the best looking truck of the last 15 years.”

Exactly. What has the car industry done in the past century to make people blindly trust that a perfect car will be delivered every time? A car purchase is nothing like the everyday online impulse buys.

Changing the fluid might actually make a difference in longevity if that change alone improves the function/feel of the shifts. The change in function/feel could mean the transmission isn’t wearing itself out as fast.

Nearly every third millenium $2,750 / 75k miles car should be safer for a rookie driver...
