What’s upkeep like? I’ve been looking for a two-seater convertible or similar car as a summer weather runabout. Had decided on a 300zx for turbos and power, but it’s hard to find one in good condition for the price point I want, which is 15k-ish at the top end.  I’ve been looking at S2000's, but I’d want an ‘06-’07…

You’ve literally never taken a shit at a gas station?  GTFO

“I feel we’re going to look back on the current LC500 in similar time and see a better aged car.”

Hell, I’d take a LC500 in a minute, though not for the price they are asking.  I just wish that they’d come out with a convertible version so I could buy a used one at $30k a few years down the road. (Note that I’ve got a…

It’s damn sad. I want to like Nissan so badly, but they’ve just produced utter crap since the 300ZX turbo got the axe. They come up with the IDx concept and have no intent to produce it, they come up with the Eau Rouge (which, admittedly, it is extremely unlikely I would have bought since I needed a truck) which they…

Electrix IDx or GTFO

You’d still have mold in the AC and heating vents and, short of pulling all those out, you’re not going to get rid of that. Hello respiratory problems!

That must be a new thing!  

Said like someone without a Montana LLC!

Your anecodotal experience doesn’t necessarily reflect the trend.

I’ve got a buddy that’s a Mercedes mechanic and has been for years. There’s no way in hell I’d buy a Mercedes out of warranty, especially an AMG, on his advice. All that money you saved is going to get spent on maintenance and repairs.

“Did you buy a luxury pickup recently? Why did you choose that over a comparable luxury SUV?”

Yep!  Traded in my ‘16 F-150 Platinum 3.5l ecoboost for a 2018 that is exactly the same except for some minor cosmetic differences, the boost in power in the new model, and the 10 speed transmission.  The only real SUV I would…

“I still think there’s a place for a well-sorted range-extender, but, once again, BMW didn’t ask me.”

You’re right, and BMW’s solution sucked out of the gate. It was designed as a range extender to get you those last few miles to a charge, not as something to keep you going the last 100 miles on your weekend trip down…

A traumatic head injury can be the catalyst that causes a previously latent mental issue to become active or apparent. I’ve worked car wreck cases from the plaintiff side where the person was well within the scope of normal (documented by medical records) and then very much not so afterwards. I’ve also sat in on…

O’KUUUUUUUUR

You have no right to drive, driving is a privilege.

First world problem here, too! Ford hasn’t even fucking made sync 3 compatible with Waze for Android. It works for iPhone, but I guess they don’t give a shit about android users who spend 60k+ on a truck.

You hear that, Ford? You’re trying to convert a lifelong customer into someone that buys a Dodge Ram for his next…

Oh, shut the fuck up.

I just got back from elk hunting in Colorado, and I’d have paid a lot of fucking money to have an electric dirt bike to haul me and my gear up mountain sides. Doesn’t need to be fast, just needs to get me and 100 lbs of hunting and camping equipment up a trail!

As others said, it is possible, but you’re going to need a pretty significant amount of mechanical and machining knowledge, and spend a lot f time testing it at the range, to actually get it to work.  There are other, less expensive, and easier methods to replicate the speed with which an automatic rifle fires.

Nah, man, camper shell.  Means my stuff is secure, I can sleep in the bed in rain or cold if necessary, and it looks good.
