For people who say there are still bad cars today. We need to bring back the Yugo so those people truly know what a bad car is.

I had a Touareg, was hesitant at first working on it, but after awhile started digging into it. When the answer to repairs was often a hacksaw or wire cutters and removing over complicated systems to repair it and everything works perfectly once you remove stuff, it might have been over designed.

Over designed is…

After owning my last VW, all VW’s are now automatic CP for me.

I have had a German SUV. I can attest to the over complication. You look at and think, man this is cool, then it stops working because it’s unnesarily complicated. You start researching how much it will cost to fix. After getting over that sticker shock you start thinking and next thing you know you are grabbing wire…

Just buy the car on the cheap.

Not really their first attempt though, they tried a composote plastic bed in the 90s. At least from a strength standpoint CF is better than that.

The thought has long been that you can add external battery packs to the trailer greatly extending the range. So that is where this stuff gets confusing as are the range estimates the tractor alone or tractor with battery packs on the trailer. With the trailer packs, you then do a trailer drop and swap when your…

Odometer descripency is automatic CP qualifier in my book.

The range on that car must real suck, one run down the parking lot at full acceleration and they have to push it back.

There are companies that never settle, I used to work for one and that was their policy. When you have a full legal team, you aren’t spending extra money for legal representation by not settling and I heard from them that it saved them a lot of money because of the never settle policy. It greatly reduces the number of…

Seems the bigger Tesla becomes, the more of an inevitable train wreck it becomes as people find out more and more about it.

Replied in wrong place

Inclement weather, they hit a lot of stuff, so the bumper has to absorb as much as possible with out the vehicle taking damage. These things are designed to not go out of service for long. That is one of the primary design requirements. They are the cockroaches of the automobile world.

Yeap, nothing on the current one is hard to yank and replace. Engine goes out, they can yank it and put in another in no time. Same with transmission, everything. You then repair the old stuff on a stand while the truck is out in service. Use to know someone who worked on them and I swear he said there wasn’t anything…

For the condition, the age and the way the classic car market can be, it seems like it should be a NP, but it’s a Jeep and to me this isn’t a Jeep. If I’m buying an old classic Jeep, this isn’t it so got to go with CP.

Fiero’s with a V8 are awesomely fun car. Knew someone that did the Northstar conversion on his, made the Fiero perform as it was designed to then. Would love to have one, but not with a chopped top and not at this CP price.

My first two cars when I got my license, a Chryler Lebaron and then a Chrysler Reliant K Car. So automatic crack pipe for me.

This is good enough and cheap enough, if it was closer it would already be in my garage.

That’s not restored, that’s half assed. And if what is half assed is so obvious, makes you question what else has been short cutted.

Premium price for quick turn, low quality work. CP.

Yeah, but they have the manufacturer warranty. :p
