Agreed. Look how much prettier this livery looks on a 747:

That sounds absolutely grand. I’m hoping to get my passport this year. In part so I can join a former colleague on an adventure down under, and in part so I can finally strike “ride in a 747" off of my bucket list.

A 12 year old car is old? Oh boy I better do some soul searching lol

That pretty much sums up my feelings to, my initial reaction too, but the more I looked, the more I liked. Still a close call, but I picked nice price because the seller actually wrote a good ad, he is not “saling” his car, it doesn’t need or have good “breaks” or “need fixed”, no all caps, no don’t bother me with…

Entry level sports couples?

For Celsius, I use a poem:

I don’t.

Dammit! This is where the loss of Torch is really being felt!

Then they will be looking for the diesel models

Except for hauling stuff around my Fantasy Island estate, I have no idea why I’d want this box-on-wheels. Can’t get more basic. And 44 horsepower? I think some lawn tractors have more than that, so you ain’t getting on any freeways if you’re semi-sane.

I’m surprised they’re not just walking up to Russian tanks and welding the hatches shut.

Michigan Highway Patrol officers stumbled onto a local rust mine. Local news outlets and the department reports that a two-month-long investigation led authorities to a home where $2.30 worth of rusted Jeeps (35 in total) were stored.

While I’ll certainly agree that “personal luxury” cars of the ’70s are an, ahem, acquired taste, This is actually a pretty fine example of the breed. A big, floaty cruiser made to soak up the miles. It may not be equipped for broken-field running, but it’s equipped perfectly for broken-road cruising.

These big, soft, “floaty” cars were exactly what you needed during long trips on the freeways at the posted 55mph limit. Luxury is a soft ride and room to stretch out. It ain’t a sports car . . .

Are you and your company deeply tied to the leader of a regime who is invading a foreign country? Is your company the result of massive graft and you were able to purchase a state owned company for pennies on the dollar? Is your wealth tied to corruption and being best buds with a maniac with delusions of recreating…

Jesus. My son (now 20) bought his first car two years ago. $4,000CAD for a 2002 bug-eye WRX. He earned every dollar, pays his insurance, gas and maintenance. He loves it more than life itself. He’ll keep it forever (seriously he has plans). I can’t even comprehend just handing a kid $20K for their first car. My kid…

As others have pointed out Minnetonka is a very affluent community. This kid has already got mutual funds/trusts, and he’s got an extra 20K for a car to go 5,280 feet on school days.

If you drive the car at all I don’t think you’ll get ANY money back. In another 20k that car’s going to be ready for a nice donation to Kars4Kids or https://carshelpingveterans.org/ . If the owner can’t be bothered to remove a twig under the hood ornament - even when he provides a closeup of that ornament - I can only…

Continuing on with your most excellent example... after 15 minutes the engine heat will be making your balls rain sweat like Niagara Falls and the hot black seat will spread that moisture all around for a class A #1 case of swamp-ass. The cramps in you legs from driving in that offset position required by that massive…

Let me see if I can sum up this experience on a nice summer day. There’s no top so you’ll be wearing a hat or burning the top of your head, said hat would also be flying off in the wind. It’s black on black so when parked ( no top again) those seats are going to fry your legs and any other bare skin that touch it.…
