Thirty five large for an Italian kit car? Not only no, but hell no. C-R-A-K-P-I-P-E Crack pipe!

Yowch. Better you than me.

Me either. Replaced a fuel filter on a 1995 Blazer in +5 F weather. Gasoline is *cold* at that temperature when it runs down your arm and soaks your jacket.

Amen. At the end of the day, it’s still a Tortoise.

I’m torn between a 1968 Buick Sportwagon with the 400, or the 1974 RX-4. The RX-4 was a neat car, but Dad traded it off before it reached the 50K mile apex seal replacement, and that disappointed me because I wanted it for myself.

Make the QX50 as good as an RX350 and people will flock to buy it just because it doesn’t have that hideous Lexus spindle grille.

Looks like crap, goes like hell. $1700? NP all day long.

This is my thinking, and why I voted CP. Far too distinguished a price for an undistinguished car.

Perhaps, but it’s obvious someone would have to put the dog up to it.

All right, what kind of old, clapped-out rolling junkyard of a Jeep did he buy this time?

I’m on the fence about this one. Nice car. well equipped, but it competes with the Mercedes W164, and you can find one of those just as nice and well-equipped for under $30K all day long. Reluctant CP.

The Australian Cattle Dog doesn’t get to ...enjoy the cows on the way.

When I had an aircraft and therefore a hanger, I had a refrigerator in it that got passed down to me through many hands. It was a Kelvinator. Yes, *that* Kelvinator. Worked pretty well, too, 60 years later.

My criteria for buying an EV haven’t changed: I need to haul a midsize SUV’s worth of stuff at least 300 miles (with a little reserve) at at least 70 MPH anywhere in the country, not just along an Interstate, then be ready to do it again in 15 minutes, repeated indefinitely - and I need to be able to buy it used for

The clean title certainly helps. OTOH, wasn’t it a Mazzer that had the guy tearing his hair out until a factory tech told him to give it an Italian tuneup? Regardless, while there’s nothing more expensive than a cheap Mercedes, a cheap Maserati has to give it a run for its money, and this qualifies as cheap. Shame,

Six. Hundred. Horsepower. Geo. Tracker.

Now, this is one I could go for. I like the looks, it’s got AWD *and* a stick, and the top drops. I bet 225 HP would move it right smartly, and the stick lets you keep the turbo spooled up as you drive. NP.

No.

I’d prefer the W210 version, myself; the W211 takes more computers to wrench on it. Still, this one looks in great shape and not hooned or modded to death, and that’s not a bad deal at all. NP.

I thought the term “hammer” only applied to the early 90s W124 version? No matter, this one’s still a killer deal.
