I think you should re-read the article.

It says you really need to up your game. You’re being had by dummies.

I do apologize. The intent wasn’t to be homophobic. In fact quite the opposite is what I wanted. I merely meant that I wished him something he would not like tomorrow. After seeing the options I laid out, I am less than pleased with the way it played out. What was in my head and how it reads are not the same. If I…

Thanks. I agree that in some cases it’s a wash. No offense but an outback is no a luxury car. My point is that in the luxury market, it’s a bigger difference.

I realize you’re trying to reboot or something, gain back your confidence, or try to muster your inner alpha. Or whatever. But here is the short and sweet of it - you write like a freshmen poli sci major with a minor in English lit.

Sometimes we plebes just can’t figure it out sir.

I really didn’t set out to troll. Sometimes it’s just hard to watch people so full of themselves act as though Socrates would swoon to hear them speak.

Um . . . who shit in your corn flakes this morning? Luxury vehicles in all categories command a substantial premium when new. They do not command the same premium in the used car market.

Agreed.

Wow so loquacious! I am downright astonished by how prodigious you are!

I guess because I am not a writer, I don’t share the same hatred for writers in their sunset years.

Should respond with “I’m rubber, you’re glue . . . ?”

I think it’s appropriate to disagree with the Never Buy New stance. I agree that there are cars where the savings is limited thus not worth it. But there are probably more instances where it make sense, than those where it does not. Especially if you’re in the sub, mid, or high-end luxury market.

Do you want something the kids can beat down and repackage for a small space in hell or something that still brings you joy while driving?

Not quite as sad as the imaginary world you live in where your cognition is considered anything other than substandard. Anyone who uses the word “pontificate” demonstrates their sad desire to be a smarter more respected person.

I didn’t see much wrong with George’s article. Seemed pretty cogent, something I can’t say for this article. I wonder if this is the result of hating people who have reached beyond your current grasp?
