State farm. “I eventually found insurance through State Farm...” and there was issues. http://dougdemuro.kinja.com/everything-is-a-little-more-difficult-when-you-have-a-f-1537132153

Holy shit, good luck getting financing on a 17 year old car costing $65K at any reasonable rate. Here’s Doug’s story: http://dougdemuro.kinja.com/everything-is-a-little-more-difficult-when-you-have-a-f-1537132153

“Rich” is always relative. For example, http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/the_great_divergence/features/2010/the_united_states_of_inequality/the_stinking_rich_and_the_great_divergence.html defines “rich” as the 1%. If we go with this argument, then “rich” is a state of mind more than actual income.

Yeah, your situation is very average, I mean 60K income, no loans of any kind, no rent, and probably no absolutely necessary food bills given that you have no rent, so probably very nearly no expenses. Yeah, totally typical. I mean, it’s totally apples to apples to compare incomes without accounting for expenses.

Yay, another programmable module for my car, maybe I’ll reprogram it to play the star wars cantina song and drive it all night up and down the neighbor’s street!

LOL, similar story, but with an S2K back in the day. Tried to do a quick u-turn on a 6 lane urban “highway” ahead of oncoming traffic. I gave it too much gas slid and didn’t catch the slide until after three back-and-forth correction attempts. Cop immediately pulls up behind me, lights on. I turn off the road…

Second crash at the track, on a wet track, but getting stupid on rain tires. I remember thinking while sliding, ‘wheeeeeeeee, the track makes an awesome slip and slide....’

But did they fix any of Android auto connected mode’s steaming pile of bugs? On a S7 with VAG’s latest AA compatible head-unit, I can’t even get AA to show up only about 40% of the time.

Insurance papers in wallet/purse. No registration papers in the car in TX at least - that’s determined by the sticker on the windshield, which also serves as proof of inspection.

Three points. 1. The buyback offer extends until September 2018. How long is your extended warranty again? What part of lying about emissions should influence how the warranty works if your radio fails? So at the very least your argument should be ‘every month not used *after you turn in your car*.’ But then again,…

Last I checked, during a negotiation for buying a car, you, the purchaser has the most power and can simply walk away (barring very edge cases). Put plainly, no one is forcing you into the deal. Additionally, you can’t passively buy a car. You have to choose to walk into a dealership and ultimately you have to hand…

“So how does this make me ‘whole’ let alone ‘generously compensate’ me per the Judge?”

Who said it was mandated?

Does that include tow away? :)

Civic turbo. 6MT should arrive next year and Edmunds got ~49 mpg highway (only) on theirs. http://www.edmunds.com/honda/civic/20….

Or have a sign of financial acumen. To whit: free car - out of state college - no cars allowed on campus - living on campus required + walkable community - cost of gas - cost of insurance - cost of parking - cost of registration/fees/taxes/snow tires/etc. = no to “free” car.

“they always have this WHOLLY UNNECESSARY automatic open and close ‘feature’”

“17" for the Gwagon”

Gotcha, it wasn’t clear from the commenting system that you were talking about longer terms. I vaguely remember the dealer offering longer terms at pretty good rates when I was buying, I think ~2% or so, but I was more focused on the 0%, because why not?

The deals are not always only for undesirable cars. Not sure of now, but at one point Ford had 0%, 60-month, 0 down loans on the Fiesta ST. I picked one up during just such a deal with a final (after tax) price right in line with what others were paying on the Ford forums (first year of the ST, only ST available in a…
