I am still perusing the car sales websites for a low mileage ecoboost Flex. When my sister was in the market for a 3 row SUV, I recommended the Flex for the cavernous room, low entry egress, and decent price.

It was an inch shorter than a Tahoe, and an inch longer wheelbase!

I’ll use a laser wash in a pinch, sometimes, I’ll need the majority of the crap blown off my van. Then I’ll go over it with a hand wash. I don’t have a power washer, or even a hose (damn rental house doesn’t have a water spigot), so I make due with my resources.

Curious what the seller would ask for if the project was completely finished...$40k? $50k? $60k?

I’d argue that your points are exactly why the car is underrated. In a world where vehicles keep getting bigger, the 200 maintained proper midsized dimensions. If people want more room in a sedan, FCA had the Charger and 300 for that. For my application: single, college student, travels from Chicago to Michigan…

The Dodge Journey was built on an aged platform that’s almost as old as the LX platform the Charger/Challenger/300 is built. The 2015-2017 Chrysler 200 was built on an entirely new platform from its Sebring/200/Avenger predecessor. So your take is inaccurate. And since you can’t seem to name a specific reason why the…

Exactly. Little details like the spot lights made all the difference. Tons of center console storage. This wasn’t a parts shelf project thrown together by FCA. They spend almost $2billion to retool the assembly plant for this model. I won’t go in to the amount of over engineering this car got in the assembly process…

You have a point with your Fusion, but I can’t put the oil burning blame on the vehicle per say (all Tigershark engines experience this issue). And I absolutely agree that this is what the Sebring should have been. That era of the Sebring/Avenger was awful. Had they come to the game with this at first, I think it…

Living in Detroit, a trip to Windsor was frequent. Went out to Windsor for a date night with the gf at the time. Upon heading back, the Border Agent asks us what our business was in Canada. Told him we went out for dinner. He then asks us if we’re bringing anything back to the states he should know about. I jokingly…

Again, this is only if I ever use said car washes. I regularly hand wash my vehicles. But if I have to use one, I go to a touchless.

The only time I’ll hit an automatic car wash is when it’s touchless. The ones that use no brushes whatsoever

Here’s a real hack: Instead of bagging groceries, grab an empty box that all the bags of chips come in. They’re usually near the entrance of the store, and large enough to hold everything you are shopping for. Fill that box in your cart with whatever you’re shopping for. The checkout process is as quick as normal.…
