If it helps sway your decision, I just picked up a ZR2 (2019 crew V6) for $33k with 7k miles on it. Lot of truck for the price.

Ohio gets rid of mandatory front plates on July 1st. I just got a Colorado ZR2 that came from Indiana, so no front plate mount, and it looks way better without it. So I just need to avoid cops for another month.

Don’t break my heart like that =[

Long time reader here. Been through many a Kinja changes (including the introduction of Kinja, and you know how bad that was), and I can say without a doubt that this is the worst redesign that Gizmodo has ever had. Everything is a jumbled up mess, there are like 6 different styles and layouts going on depending on…

Actually put in the effort to look at the number of slides, and type in /slides/7 to get to the comment section just to tell you that this format is horrible and I refuse to click through it. Next time I see an article with slides that I want to read, I’m turning ad-block back on for Giz sites for good.

What in the holy Hell is this new Gizmodo home page layout? This is literally the worst website design I have ever seen. It’s a goddamn mess and hurts my eyes to look at. Jesus Christ.

‘gizmodo.com/latest’ is back to the old layout, if anyone else encounters this.

Buy a Forney 100ST and watch youtube videos. Once you are proficient on a stick welder, MIG seems like cheating. 

“Did he just 4L60 that brand new Corvette?”

Trucks are too damn big, but the pricing is the real problem. Look at the Chevrolet dealer near me:

Crew Cab LT trim 4WD Colorado: $33,500
Crew Cab LT trim 4WD Silverado: $33,500

So a person who bought a Raptor for high speed desert recreation would have been better served with a Ridgeline? Got it.

That was my point. Advertising it as a feature on a new vehicle is stupid, because it’s federally mandated. It’s just trying to trick uneducated consumers into thinking it has more options than other vehicles. 

Slightly unrelated, but boy does it make me irrationally angry when dealers advertise backup cameras as a feature on 2018.5 and later vehicles. It’s not an option, it’s not a feature,it’s not special. 

Neutral: Release the Bronco as a legitimate Wrangler competitor. Off-road focused 4dr SUV with the 2.7TT sounds like a winner so far (although the 5.0L would be ideal). As long as it’s not too terribly expensive, it’s on my radar as my next vehicle.

“Average life expectancy of a dog is 10-13 years and on the low end, the average yearly cost of owning a dog is $1,500 so you’re already out at least $15,000.” 

I replied to you above, but I’ll post it here too for others:

Yeah, but 1/2 tons from the Big Three never go for MSRP.

Looks like it could have a piece put on after the fact.

Farming, apparently, so:

I took the easy route on mine. Bought an XJ, got DW on the drive home, bought a big-ass steering damper from Autozone, and never had wobble again.

What’s the cost difference over the lifetime of a standard $30k half-ton gas truck versus vs a $45k EV truck? $15k buys a lot of gas. And the Cybertruck won’t fit in your urban parking space either.
