I am concerned that this fine double wide is EXACTLY what much of the world thinks most American homes look like.

LOL I have an MBA as well. Some of us definitely ARE awful.

I would have thought the Venn diagram between holders of MBAs and dealership finance managers would be two very far apart circles. I guess not.

I would add it’s pretty easy to find rental Can-AM Maverick X3 Turbos. We recently had a couple opportunities to do half day rentals and bomb around the Tonto National Forest near Cave Creek AZ and the Broken Arrow trail near Sedona.

For only $460K. LOL.

The DUI statistics shown by Insurify are way lower than what states are reporting.

Clean crude and basic seems to be on the price upswing as of late.

You’re absolutely correct.

Dealerships for legacy manufacturers aren’t going away, ever.

Counterpoint: In December I traded a perfectly fine ‘17 Macan S for a loaded ‘22 Stelvio Veloce.

The interiors were substantially upgraded with the 2020 refresh. The material quality is quite good.

I rented a bike for a half day in Amsterdam years ago and had a fabulous time. The Dutch have an amazing bike culture which clued me in. Plus the lady wearing the Orange dress was a tip.

The Netherlands? They look so genuinely happy to be out riding, even wearing dressy clothes, whoever they are.

Well Zack, I feel for you. I hope you a picked a career that will pay you a decent wage going forward. 30 is the new 18 for a lot of people nowadays.

The brilliance of the original Integra was that it absolutely WAS a tarted up Civic. It just looked much better and was tuned for a slightly higher level of performance/handling at a modest price point.

In my little cul -de-sac of parental insanity, five newly licenced 16 year olds all got their first cars over the last few years as follows:

You missed the point completely. A Cummins powered manual trans Model X would be kinda cool, though.
