Wah, cars are hard to work on.  You sure you didn't mean to click on Jezebel  ?

“$4500. No lowballers. I know what I ruined.”

Literally all of them. There were no good cars produced in the 70s. They were all hot garbage. The 70s were a period of transition from big V8s with 4 barrel carbs and no emissions controls and leaded gas to fuel injected 4 cylinder engines and unleaded fuel. It was the laziest period of american car design.

It was a…

you go ahead and bring this to your off-roading meetup and tell us later what happened... lol 

Yeah the only good GAP I’ve ever seen was through my Credit Union where they simply had you pay for the GAP coverage as a lump sum at the start of the loan along with providing an estimate of what they think your car is currently worth. made it easy for me to decline as it would have been paying $500~ on the off…

For this reason I am also off to the side of the car in front of me while sitting at a light with my bike in gear, clutch pulled in and foot on the brake. This has saved me a couple times being able to quickly move forward just in case. The other best thing I ever did was fit a intermittent flasher to the brake light…

I feel like this is the kind of thing where you just need to find the one person who wants this car but I’m concerned that person is also the one selling it.

Actually, you forgot the Jeep owners’ “Can I have your axles?” questions as well. I wouldn’t underestimate the younger generation’s ability to recognize the Scout. It’s in a lot of ads, prizes, etc., and they are very brand conscious. VW has proven they can do reboots. This may be interesting.

Why sell a valuable name to a competitor (VW already makes trucks, we just dont see them) when you have a massive parts bin and plans already in place to expand in North America?

And even if a company wanted to attempt a faithful resurrection, Scout enthusiasts would have shunned it for all the things they’d have to do to release an SUV in the 2020's.

Hands down the back seat of a 2005 Chevrolet Equinox.

youd be surprised. there are a lot of gems in the SF bay area.... theres something like 11 million people, fantastic weather, lots of money, no rust.... its not uncommon for people to own more cars than they drive. furthermore with gas being so expensive, theres less driving altogether... this makes for the perfect…

Harley has tried to introduce changes many times before, only to have the market vote against those changes. When your existing customers despise change and customers in the markets you’re trying to woo with new products are biased against the brand, you’ll keep doing what H-D does: introduce new products that don’t…

The most reliable cars I’ve owned are Escorts. Beat the shit out of the reliability of the Infiniti I had.

Plus that mid-run GT looked fantastic for a small car. Really.

Exactly: can you fit a basset hound in the passenger seat and a shotgun in the gun rack behind your head? Yes? Then what are you complaining about?

Yeah, I’ll call this one “MP” for “Market Price”
