If you are asking if you are too high to drive, you are too high to drive. If you want to get stoned, fine. If you want to get stoned, get behind the wheel, and put me and my family in danger, then that is no longer fine. If your judgement is impaired, how can you be sure you will use the app (I have been around

Never, no not ever, finance a car at a dealership. There are way too many ways for the process to be hijacked and you to be duped. You may say, “not me!” but car dealers negotiate for a living, and they have more practice and are better at it than you are (yes, even you). Walk in the door with financing in hand, do

I agree with Patrick Henry, “Give me liberty, or give me death”. You act like Kim is not starving millions of people to death by funding military spending instead of feeding his people. It’s not like this is a new phenomenon. In the late 1990s, it is estimated that over 2 million people starved alone. If you think he

I voted NP. Relegate it to weekend duty. Something is good about this car, or it wouldn’t make it over 200K miles. My guess is you are not going to rack up that many maintenance bills if you are driving it 2-3K per year, and the car looks incredible. 

Until the US, or (insert name here) government gets tired of dealing with it and makes it illegal to use in transactions. Then the value plummets and it is worthless. Bitcoin is pure speculation at this point.

David, being a jeep fan, I can understand how you were surprised. In your world of dilapidated jeeps, a uneventful trip of 1,400 in a car with a comfortable ride is an amazing achievement. For most of us, we refer to this as “Tuesday”.

NP, because you could make money parting it out at that price. Even if it was mint, it would be more useful as parts. Those cars suck (former owner). Fun to drive, but you rarely get to because they are completely unreliable and hard to work on.

No, but that does not mean it is a scam. Scam implies dishonesty. Charging to much for something (unless it is deceptive) is not a scam. Neither is paying too little. If you have a car that is worth $5000 and I offer you $4500, I am not scamming you. You are free to turn down the offer. Same goes with businesses.

As long as they did not tell you they were going to pay you $11,300 and actually only paid you $9620, then it is not a scam. I had the opposite experience. I had a p.o.s. Ford Ranger that no one else would even buy, and they paid me a reasonable price for it with no hassle. It was a couple hundred less than I could

Scam - “n. a dishonest scheme; a fraud.” Unless they were dishonest in the deal, offering you less than you want is not a scam.

Now playing

As others have said, there are a lot of these in the US. The track in Pigeon Forge is basically the same thing, and it is made out of wood (it’s like racing on a boardwalk).

The Corvette spits fire, the Dodge Demon will pull the front wheels off the ground.... It is a good time to be alive. The killjoys say, “Nobody needs that much power, it’s dangerous”, and for this one, glorious moment, the manufactures are replying, “STFU”. I have no doubt that the killjoys (regulators or car execs)

There are so many, here are a few off the top of my head.

Oh I thought you were going to say they only cost about $20-$30 a month without insurance, so just skip a latte a week and avoid forcing someone to pay for something they feel violates their religious freedom, but maybe that is just me.

Counter point: Don’t vote unless you are informed. Just showing up and pulling the lever for the guy you have heard of because of a sense of civic duty, or you have a pet issue you are really passionate about is a really bad idea. Voting is a responsibility, and you need to take it seriously. Just because you hear a

I worked for an automotive parts manufacture for OEMs for several years. You underestimate how much cost there is in developing, testing, and warranting these parts. We received huge penalties from the automotive manufacturer if even one in 500 parts had a slight defect, which meant the part we sold to them was a

My first time driving was probably when I was 12 or 13 in store parking lot. It was a 1966 Ford Fairlane 500. It was the 4 door, but it did have the 289 in it. Probably a year or so later I drove it down the street to our neighbors house. We lived in the sticks, so the only real danger was to mailboxes and fence post,

It is a brown manual wagon in nice shape. The Rules dictate that it must be a NP. There is no other option.

This car is listed as costing $31K in the article, so it is already more than the WRX. Adding a turbo to it would add thousands to the cost because of warranty considerations, regulatory compliance and mark up.

In the article, this one is listed as costing $31K as is. A factory turbo is going to be more expensive than a bolt on aftermarket (regulatory requirements, warranty considerations, mark up, etc).
