well yes dealerships are making more money. Fewer salesman, marking up cars somewhere between 0 and Bronco level insane. (20k?) no under MSRP. 

then get your shit fixed. You won’t get pulled over or a ticket then. It’s not rocket science. 

well, HOA...looney neighbors...difference? 

I’d take the simple route. When Roger Moore was in Cannonball, thinking he was James Bond, the changing license plate. Subtle, easy way to get out of camera tickets and red light cameras. 

Have tri-power, can confirm. 

On the rare really cold temps we endured (-38F) I did remote start my car and let it idle for about 10 minutes before I got to it. Beyond that, cold starts, a minute of low revs, then I’m at 55. It did take a bit longer for the revs to go down to where they normally were when it was that cold. 

The only “thrown clear” person I know of was in the back seat of a mid-80's camaro and went out through the hatch.

trailers of a certain length need a second door. For fires. 

todays nice price is a 1995 range rover for $3500. 

think of how many calls to amusement parks there could be. End of a roller coaster ride. “you’ve stopped suddenly...” or bumper cars, which don’t go that fast but still.

that interior gives it an immediate ND. 

DRL’s need to be orange or amber, something other than white. That way you need to turn your lights on at night, if they aren’t automatic.

NW Illinois. It’s just around the corner from my house. So when it’s winter and snows, it gets a bath then straight to my somewhat heated garage. 

Alignments last the life of the car. Along with shocks. 

simple solution: Spend (at least around here) $3 to run through an automatic car wash. Side bonus, gets all the salt filled slush off your car. 

I started driving in the middle of a forest preserve, from 1978 until 2007, my family successfully navigated about 12 miles of deer infested driving. I now live in the middle of town next to a few apple trees that I have. I’ve had more close encounters in my own short driveway than I did on those 12 or so miles. The…

Noooooo! at least a couple of those look rust-free and still have several miles yet to do. 

had a Nissan Maxima at one point. Fun car to thrash around in the two lane back roads that I had to travel for work. Usually I got Pontiac G6's which aren’t bad, but that Maxima...
