MTV - Multi-Terrain Vehicles

S4 is always going to be more expensive than an A4. But honestly, how often do $3k vehicle repairs spring up?

I didnt say NO insurance. Just state minimum. My state minimum covers quite a bit and then I have supplemental accident insurance for injuries. 

I do this “scheme” for auto insurance as well where I purchase state minimum coverage and then fund a “just in case” account about $200 a year. I drive mostly Jalopies so it works for me. 

I know not everyone is “great” with finances but you can save yourself a LOT of money if you just save accordingly. If the extended warranty is going to cost you $3,000 and is for 2 years and unlimited miles, then your banking that your car will need more than $3k in repairs over two years. Thats $125/month.

The Corvette pulls 1.03gs in the skidpad and has the same amount of horsepower. What do you define as a “sports car”?

The hell they arent. A stock Mustang GT will pull 0.96gs on the skidpad. Dont know why you have to form opinions on new products based on what the car was 30 years ago. Mustangs and Camaros ARE the American Sports car. 

Trust me, I would LOVE to own this car and its fire breathing 3-cylinder motor. At $30k its a very compelling case.

If you ever wonder why America doesnt get the Hot Hatches like the rest of the World, this (the price) is exactly to blame. No one would buy it (in any mass numbers) with such other cheaper ways to obtain speed. The USA is not burdened with narrow roads. Most cities can be easily navigated in a....wait for

Right!?! Two tons in whats sitting in the two dumpsters outside of my local tire shop. Hell, that tanker ship that capsized off Savannah likely put more than 2 tons of tire rubber/microplastic into the ocean via disintegration.

legitimately laughed out loud at the Raph comment.

Well, no way like changing the world with hate and anger, amiright?!?!?!?!

Do you know what opinion means? Do you know what objective means? Obviously not since we dont have free college. If only you knew......

Thank you for agreeing. 

Rick Hendrick flies his crews around in his 747 jumbo jet because its cheaper. I dont think NASCAR has been grassroots for....well ever. Grassroots are in the feeder series. 

All the Jalopniks will blame the Republicans for their laziness. 

Well the new generation of vehicles is making performance numbers literally seem irrelevant. 718lbft of twist in a family hauler that does 0-60mph in 4.5seconds....and that isnt even NEAR “performance” in the EV space. Holy hell.

Look at that adorable smiling face back there......”Dude *smiles* wait up for me *smiles* Im a little chunky now *smiles* please dude, I swear I am one of you Miatas *smiles* look at my smile dude

I went to a Rockies game 5 or 6 years ago. There is a line that runs around the stadium declaring “this line is at one mile above sea level” and all I could think was “man, thats a load of shit. I thought all of denver was above 5,180ft”

Yes they are. You can grow food. You can go live on BLM land right now. You dont need to log onto the internet. Luxuries are not necessities.
