Damn dude.

You really, really need a Pozi-drive screwdriver bit set too. Those are NOT Phillips screws in your Sektion cabinet.

Once you have assembled enough of it, you don’t need the instructions anymore.

I can believe it, assuming he put down a realistic number of miles for full-coverage commercial insurance with limits that mean that if you cause an accident you don’t end up bankrupt.

Is it terrible though? Hard to say. If you are putting a lot of Uber miles on a car you own, even for an EV the maintenance is going to add up, and you are going to blow through the factory warranty miles in short order, probably little more than a year. Tires alone get spendy on these things. And I assume a Mach-E is

I bet if you don’t have a squeaky clean record insurance is waay worse than that.

Air Canada seems to be the exception to the “Canadians are so nice” thing. Thier service seems to be notoriously bad.

What is it with you kids on here and the terrible takes lately?

Technically-technically, I am a “doctor” too, as I have a very rusty and moldy Juris Doctor degree (fell into IT and never practiced law). But nobody EVER refers to people with a simple law degree as Dr. in the US. They do in other countries though.

In Maine car dealers learn quickly that the guys who look like they just stepped off a fishing boat tend to be the ones with the deepest pockets. When you have enough money, you don’t need to give a shit what you look like. I just dress like the New England preppy that I am and always have been. I quite literally

Yes, I said that in my post. The whole anti-sex thing was nonsense.

All across the South really. Home cooking from people who REALLY know how to cook in absolute hole in the wall places. Across the far north, well, not-so-much.

20 years is a LONG time. And crossovers are a LOT more universally appealing than EVs, as they do have a HUGE practicality advantage over sedans. I hate them but I would still buy one before I bought a useless sedan. Volvo wanted to stop making ICE cars 5 years from now and has done a 180 on that. Some places want to

It’s probably a good thing that I didn’t buy a car with 300hp+ until I was 45 years old. Previous high was 250hp in a P38a Range Rover, not exactly a vehicle that encourages speed.

When my European cars have been way more than reliable enough to satisfy me, why do I need anything that is theoretically better than that that drives like ass in comparison? And to pick on the Camry in particular, I have driven many examples of every generation back to when I started travelling for a living in 1996

For sure they don’t randomly call people to drive expensive newly released cars. I had bought an M235i from her the year before. My second new one from them. And I always make it a point to chat with her when I am in for service, when the cars were under maintenance warranty and now that one still goes in for annual

I liked Salvage 1 better (Andy Griffith!), but I am an old.

The test driver and the salesman are almost certainly judgement proof. Especially after felony convictions and jail time. Sucks to be the car dealership though - and with that guy’s history of social media postings around “come see me for the test drive of your life”, they are going to PAY.

I’m not, there are too many idiots with lots of money. Or Mommy and Daddy’s money. And speed is FAR too accessible today to them.

You want a car that can do 0-60 in 3 seconds? Fine, prove you can handle it by getting appropriate driving instruction and proving to a properly trained examiner that you can.
