I’m surprised the Vehicross is even available. Its one of those cars I used check for every now and then to see if I could get one for $2k or so. Since the used carpocalypse, most have been listing for close to $8k, with a few nicer ones going for $15k+. This one seems to be priced well, given the current market.

If they would have just looked at the panel gaps, they would have known it was domestic.  

I don’t like Challengers. But if the Hellcat prices keep falling, I may not be able to resist getting one.

Its the software tuning and integration in the Demon that makes it “special”. Engine, transmission, traction control, and the active suspension all work together to optimize a drag launch, maintain traction without cutting power, facilitate weight transfer, and keep the front end from lifting at speed. Its a whole…

You’re allowed to get some of this stuff wrong in a private party listing. If you work in the car business and your job is to sell cars, you should get the fundamentals right.

I paid about $5000 for my 1987 Nissan Pulsar in 1992. It was an interesting car, but I feel like $5k was too much 30 years ago. No way I’d spend this much on a worn out base model automatic today.

Hated it when it was new. I don’t love it now, but I get the appeal of a V8 powered RWD roadster that isn’t designed to crush the Nürburgring. This and the SC430 seem to make a lot more sense these days.

Hello fellow weirdo! I too am a sports/sporty car enthusiast that needs something other than a solid fixed metal roof. Particularly on small cars.  Its a deal breaker that is keeping me out of some otherwise great cars.

I think the most disturbing part of this whole story is

That’s what you get when you hire Yoda to do your editing.

The “an” before a consonant sound breaks my brain every time. I’m seeking help from an therapist.

According to Motor Trend, the Lightning is 6,500 lbs, about 1,000 lbs heavier than a comparable V6 F-150.

You bring up a good point, and now I’ve spent 10 minutes I’ll never get back.

I went out around 9:30 last night to get gas in the Woodbridge, VA area to get gas. Took about 30 minutes at a station with 8 or 9 pumps. People were being assholes, but it wasn’t a mass panic. A lot of people around here have to drive more than 30 miles a day, so I wasn’t terribly surprised by the crowd.

I got an unsecured auto loan from Lighstream in 2017 at 2.59%. The only “restriction” was that I bought a car from a dealership(which I did).   But since it was unsecured, I was free to spend the money anyway I wanted.

I don’t know if this is in the same category as “if it bleeds it leads”.  From an engineering perspective, everything prior to the explosion may have been groundbreaking. But for the average person, a vehicle unexpectedly exploding sort of negates everything else it can do.

I think the list is pretty good for Minnesotans, even though it should be painfully obvious. I encountered plenty of drivers that never mounted decent tires, winter or otherwise. Not having decent tires, not avoiding skidding, not leaving enough room, and not being prepared is exactly why the ditches are full cars…

The extra crazy part is those same people are the ones that FIGHT against programs like universal healthcare because they don’t want to “pay for someone else’s problems”, but will happily send money to a megachurch because Jesus told the preacher he needs a private jet.

This sounds more likely. We love the Hellcat All The Things plan, but they will only sell in volume in the US. But in the US, no one wants the small fuel efficient FCA offerings, they don’t really do electric/hybrid, so they are rapidly painting themselves in to a corner.
