Haha.  So true!  And it’s not like I hadn’t owned the car for a while at that point. 

I had this same issue in my 350Z but it was a dead raccoon. It was about 1 AM on a cold, moonless night and I’m driving on used up Bridgestone RE-11 tires. In the best of conditions they turn to hockey pucks at about 40 degrees and it’s hovering around 35 at this point. I see some roadkill in the middle of the road,…

Yes, but any and all sporting events are more entertaining in person than when watching from home.  I’d never watch a minor league baseball game from home, but have been to many and stayed the entire time.  In person = more fun.

Heh. Reminds me of when I bought my 350Z in my 20's. They tried to play the “what monthly payment can you afford” game. I told them I could afford $1,000 per month but that didn’t mean I was going to pay that and that we needed to talk overall purchase price instead of the monthly payment game.

Sounds like it’s time to find a better company to work for.

Even worse then!  I went to a different Carmax in a different part of the country!

Makes me wonder if you went to the same dealer we did...

So my last Carmax experience had me walking away wondering why anybody would buy one of their cars. Two Fridays ago the pregnant (relevant info) wife and I stopped by Carmax on a Friday afternoon to look at 3 row SUVs. It took some work just to get somebody to help us and get our name on the list which should have…

This.  So much this.  I don’t have time to deal with that kind of nonsense.  My time is worth the extra 2k I might make by selling my car myself.

That’s a pretty broad statement. I have a nearly 5 year old car that I’m ready to get rid of. I’d rather trade it in because:
1. My time is valuable and I don’t want to deal with tire kickers
2. I have approximately 30 days before babypocalypse happens at my house and would like to deal BEFORE then
3. KBB Private Party…

I should be free to choose where I want to buy something same way your free to choose where you shop for groceries it’s a grossly simple concept.

I’d be interested in a cost study based on how much we pay for those idiots’ medical bills versus the price increase on new vehicles for safety features designed for them.  I bet that would be an interesting study.

They didn’t offer that option in 2015. :(

It’s only been a separate model since the 2015 model year.  That’s not a heck of a lot of time.  In fact, when I bought my 2015 my insurance company at the time still listed it as an Impreza WRX in the database.

This. I’ve had at least 3 occasions in 28,000 miles where a cop has literally gone out of his way to follow me and run my plates. One was on a divided highway and a cop literally hauled ass half a mile down the road o the next light, pulled a u-turn, and then sat “lights off” on a side street to get behind me after I…

Seriously. Can we just let the idiots not wearing seat belts take care of themselves?  Natural selection and all that...

Unless you’re flying for business, and then WN sucks if you’re in a meeting at the 24h check-in period. Unless your business allows you to pay for early bird check-in, you’re either stuck paying for that out of your pocket or stuck sitting in a middle seat by the bathrooms.

A nose lift is great. But it wouldn’t have saved me from that time I almost high centered my car on a neighbor’s driveway one time.  The over angle was a bit steeper than I anticipated.  :(

$2,330 may not be a huge some from their perspective, though. By this I mean, that this may be in the realm of a rounding error for a decently sized bank. Still, is there no video of them pulling the deposits?

I just wanted to say thanks for re-introducing me to Danger. I’ve listened to his stuff before, but it was through Spotify discover and I neglected to favorite him as an artist.
