I know I can’t swallow $1000 car payments for 6 years but I can afford to lose maybe 5 grand

I would think this guy would be much better off buying a few year old Wrangler/4Runner/Land Cruiser/Gladiator/GX type vehicle and then selling it after a year. Less risk with a vehicle proven to depreciate relatively slowly (that can change though) as well as the fact that it’s already used and hopefully past the…

That’s still an appallingly high number of very stupid people.

What I really can’t believe is almost 70 million people watching the last 4 years and then deciding “Hell yes, sign me up for some more of that!”

Oh boy, so its electrical issues are factory? 

No time for jokes, but . . .

This whole influencer concept and reality TV people becoming “famous” will be the downfall of modern civilization.  Such trash.  Ugh.  Makes me feel all old and “get off my lawn-y”.

The problem is that it takes time...like a decade or more...to develop brand recognition in a new place (or even for a new product). It’s like KIA attempting to compete with BMW with the Stinger.

No Dice - Florida, CEL Light, VAG product, known issues that need fixed.....

Nah. Whenever someone starts talking about lit warning lights on a late-model VW, telling me “it’s a basic fix, I just haven’t got around to it”, I start backing away.

I was kinda hoping it was Michael B Jordan. He's a nice guy. MJ is apparently kind of a dick

Remember the original RAV4? Like, the really interesting one? With big cladding, two doors, a weird convertible option and so on? THAT was a cool vehicle.

“Maybe these RAV4 buyers didn’t know that they could get an interesting car instead.”

I’m guessing you haven’t seen what the typical Sturgis attendee looks like if you think they still have grandparents.

To your UNION!

this is america. we need clearance and bigger tires for our crumbling roads after the baby boomers chose to not pay taxes for 40 years.
