He probably intended to flip this car from the get-go, so just trying to minimize expense and maximize profit.

The seller can adjust deez nuts for inflation.

recently acquired Hankook tires

I agree with the choice and yet you didn’t say my reason: Major controls are implemented in an extremely stupid way. Yoke steering wheel, capacitive turn singles, shifter that guesses where you want to go, or is in a touch screen if you disagree.

An EV people claim is bad but is actually good is the Mini Cooper EV. People complain about the 110mi range yet the average american drives 50 miles a day and almost no one road trips in a mini cooper. they weigh around 3000lbs, do 0-60 in a respectable 6 seconds, and cost $30k. The reality is that most homes have one…

An awfully big fraction of owners don’t buy vehicles as “rational decisions,” or we wouldn’t have commercials full of cowboys, and firemen, and flags, and “professional drivers on closed course” drifting across empty parking lots.

Tesla Model S. There, I said it.

I’ve been driving for 30+ years and consider myself a reasonably good driver. But I don’t have the skills to drive this car. My reactions are set for normal cars, my butt is calibrated to a normal car.  I know that a car with 2-3 times the capability would bite me if I wasn’t careful and I know that I wouldn’t remain…

We can observe the 1960s Democratic party’s rejection of the “values” of the American South and the open arms of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s GOP for the changeover to a Republican South.

It’s sacrilege on the level of replacing the automatic movement from a vintage TAG Heuer with Casio quartz.

An electric bicycle sounds awesome because hills suck.

I suffer from cognitive dissonance, because I viscerally agree with you by principle.

I’ve had ideas like this. Pull the engine, 3D scan it and mock up a convincing battery box with the same appearance. Bury an electric motor where the gearbox was and everything else stays the same.

“One planet is home to an endless rave. (I’ll take a one-way ticket, please.)“

Have you ever been to a three day music festival?  Honestly, it’s what I would picture hell to be like... Probably fun for the first couple of days, but then never being able to leave would be torture.

This article made me wonder if I was having a stroke.
