Clearly you’re using your bed wrong then.

Camper or not, it’s an Aerostar. I can only picture Aerostar drivers as a large dirty neckbeard wearing gray sweats to take his also very large wife to the Golden Corral to yell at the waitress. Never known anyone to have one but that’s the exact vibe it gives off to me.

Everything’s bigger in a Texas.

I feel like this should be separated into two questions, one for real cars in video games and one for actual video game cars.

I mean I’m only in my early 30s and it is more difficult than the average coupe/sedan to get into a Miata with the top up. The data shows they still love the car despite that, and I think that tracks, because owners of something like this go in knowing the compromised practicality and buy despite it.

I don’t agree with a lot of Dave Ramsey’s advice but you’re wrong here. They made stupid decisions and while $90k household income before taxes might be considered good money it’s not $1,200/month car payment money. They can’t afford to stick with it, which is why they called in the first place.

I swear people that complain about driving manuals in traffic are mostly people who remember doing it way back when in cheap cars. Clutch pedals are so light nowadays and they’re so easy to drive. I can get going with clutch only in my BMW with no fuss whatsoever.

Enthusiasts may be a tiny minority, but in the enthusiast cars that offer both auto and manual, take rates of manuals has been going up quite a bit in the last few years. The article even says in the US the M2 is the majority manuals.

We had a MK7 and loved it. Problem is it would be replacing my very reliable 3-series, the MK7 felt high-quality inside but is missing a lot of what I have now, and the 8 aside from touch controls is very nice inside. Plus I’d be going down less in power while the warranty is in place, I’d actually get a full warranty…

I don’t think it changes the answer much at least with my examples but what could affect it is how long they have the vehicles before they’re surveyed. Luxury car companies do have a lot of brand loyalty, and saying “I wish I would have bought an X1 instead of a GLA” and “I wish I would have sprung for a GLE instead…

I love fried clam strips and wish they were served at more places around me. So many of the seafood options are such small portions due to cost like jumbo shrimp, sea scallops, etc. but clams are pretty cheap and they always seem to come in a big enough portion. My wife needs to be in the right mood for that kind of…

If we’re not clear on it it’s very likely people surveyed were also not clear on that distinction. Also if you’re 2 years into a 3 year lease your needs and means very likely could have changed. I’d like to see the actual wording of the question, because “would you buy the car again?” is vague. It needs to be:

Getting strong 2-series vibes from the Chevy 130, Jaguar/Aston from the Buick Avista, XJ220 from the CERV III, and 550 Spyder from the Pronto.

I’m just hoping VW’s “last year of manuals” is actually the case because I’m planning on biting the bullet and getting a GTI this year, if THAT is a sales ploy and they come out with a manual and real steering wheel buttons I’ll be pissed.

So they’re taking away something that we DO want and buy here in the US, in order to make room for something we say we want but they won’t give to us.

Teslas are especially hard to value used, and sell if you’re not a Tesla dealer or the actual owner. They won’t provide any info about the car to anyone who isn’t the registered owner and won’t give anything to the dealer even if they actually own it. So if we’re lucky we have an owner that can provide the original…

On my own car yeah it would be hilarious, but if it were my daughter’s car I’d be asking for another one too.

Minnesota also had cum plates at one point, I had a client that bought a car for her teenage daughter and the plates came in as CUM247. She requested a new plate number.

I’ll skip past the low-hanging fruit and say when the car is new anything. When you have a new car under warranty and you modify it with parts not of factory design/spec, every modification is increasing the number of things that are not covered under warranty.

I gotta say I loved my wife’s A-Class, it was a great little car and I would 100% choose it again over any Subaru. Problem is we would have dragged down their survey because we needed to upgrade in size.
