I thought I was the only one that was bothered by this. Patina, fine. Rust, no.

I think it looks ok for what it is. The only thing that bothers me is the little details such as plastic parts showing rust on them. If they would have had patina on the plastic parts and rust on the metal parts I would appreciate it a bit more. I would not do it on my own car but if they like it, I love it. 

That silver one is a beauty! They should go that route for sure.

I like how her story already changed. First she was on the phone and then all of a sudden she was depressing the brake pedal without any response. Sorry, but the brake pedal is not on your iPhone screen.

A lot more people are choosing to not have kids these days such as myself and probably half of my group of friends. One thing that we have in common is that we all have pets and most of those pets are dogs. The ones that do not have kids to think about, prioritize their dogs comfort, safety and so on when making a…

She has an awesome bed. Not heated tho! Maybe I should get her a heating pad for it.

Absolutely! She gets that every morning. The sad part is that she is only 6 and since she was 2 had arthritis in her front shoulders. It kills me to see her all stiff in the morning and walking like an old dog. Once she gets moving, she is crazy. Damn backyard breeders!

Oh I know but she does not like them and will just stand there waiting for me to carry her. We have one now that she refuses to walk on so for now we just lift her up and back out. We had a minivan that she loved and it was easy for her to get in and out of so we may just have to get another one of those. I actually…

Hell yes we should! I need a car that is easy to jump in and out of for my aging dog. These FauxUV’s are not cutting it as they are too tall for her to safely jump in and out of so we have to lift her all the time. One of the most useful cars I ever owned was a small wagon (2003 Kia Rio Cinco). The car was not an…

I have a 72 month loan as well but it is 0% interest. I traded in a car that had a bit of negative equity rolled into the new one and 2 years later I am not underwater at all. The trade in value on our 2016 Dodge Journey (which lose value fast) is pretty much what the trade in value is. The only reason we got the car…

That is so true. Blind spot monitoring is the only new safety feature that I would care to have. Possibly cross traffic alert for backing up in parking lots. They can keep automatic braking and lane keep assist.

Why would anyone on this blog be surprised that these people are taking care of these cars as well as they are. I would think that people who are such fans of cars would think that this is normal. I have had some new cars that were extremely cheap, but were well maintained and looked like new when I decided to trade…

That is true. When I did woodworking as a hobby, I used a Grand Caravan with stow and go seats to haul with. 8 foot lumber was no problem. But now that I am into camping the Ridgeline would work perfectly for me. All the dirty stuff can go in the bed and it has plenty of power to tow a 2500 pound (loaded) trailer. 

Awful! Like a hot knife through butter! 

I think it looks fine. It is much more modern looking than most other trucks. What else can they do to make themselves stand out from the others since they all have the same shape? If I were buying a truck now I would look at this because of the way it looks on the outside, but probably go with the Ram for the way it…

I love pools and would not live without one at my home. It’s really not that expensive to maintain, in my experience. Test it, add the needed chemicals and then start the grill and enjoy. No sharing with strangers, their urine and possible feces, always have a chaise to lounge on and the best part is that I can use it…

If you own a home that is true. In a city there are probably more apartment dwellers than homeowners and they need charging stations. I am going to NJ on Thursday after work and that is an 8 hour drive and 600 plus miles so I would need charging stations on the way. Probably at every gas station because I may need to…

Replace everything you can. They are easy to fix and the parts are pretty cheap. I would probably start with all the steering components. They make a huge difference in how the car feels.

It is all about the charging stations for me. If they had a fast charger at every gas station I would go electric right now. It actually does not even need to be every gas station but I would think that current gas stations would already try to jump on this bandwagon and try to monetize rapid charging. People who have…

100% agree on the 3500 pound tow rating. That would allow me to to my pop-up camper and still have a bed for all the dirty stuff. I would seriously buy a truck like this if it is priced right.
