Awesome. Right?

Exactly.

I circled the same roundabout plaza for about an hour, and refused to cross the crosswalk. Who knows?

My last experience was Amsterdam. It was incredible. That town and the lights at night were amazing. But it took a turn for seedy very quickly and for a while it was touch and go. Would totally do it again though, with better planning.

Mushrooms are a great drug, bad trips can usually be attributed to really bad moods prior, or just poor planning. Losing track of time and distance can really fuck with you if the place you’re in is unfamiliar or unfriendly. But beyond that, your perception of the world is pretty incredible.

I have something like 80 gigs of music I’ve been collecting since the 1990s. Lately I just want to get back to albums instead of endless singles. One day I’ll put all my digital music into playlists and get rid of probably half of it. But anyway. I feel like as I get older I just want to listen to something that’s…

You mean dealers don’t give bullshit reasons about why they don’t have “room to budge” on a price, only to come down significantly later?

You do need alcohol. Especially when you’re getting families together. At all costs get an open bar. Agree on the seating. Keep the ceremony and dinner short and sweet. Agree on getting a friend to marry you. That friend knows you and will be more sincere and funnier than an officiant who is reciting a planned speech.

Can someone please explain how the dealer model works from a dealer purchasing perspective? Do they actually buy/finance inventory? or do they pay to keep it on their lots for a fee? What do they actually pay and what are their margins on an actual sale, without the bullshit explanations that dealers give.

CP: Normally, 2500 for a running car like this one is NP all day long, but the prices for an XJR in good condition are low enough that after the general maintenance needed, I’d rather just spend the 8-10k for a nicer one.

Instead you prefer to waste time by clarifying your perspective and making snide comments about whether or not someone should Facebook less? To address your data specifically. You’re comparing apples to oranges. Both immigration policy and circumstance in Europe are completely different. Attitudes would be really hard…

Eh. You’re making some generalizations based on data that imply you’re OK with deporting illegal immigrants because other countries do it while ignoring a bunch of context. It isn’t a huge leap. The points people are making to you aren’t really too unfair, and by not out and out refuting them and taking a specific…

I’ll never chill. You chill.

Cherokee isn’t really marketed or sold as an offroad vehicle, it’s a city SUV. Toyota 4Runner - and the Land Cruiser Prado, which actually is the “Land Cruiser” in this video (essentially a 4Runner), are specifically more rugged offerings. For more road-oriented SUVs they have the Sequoia and Highlander.

Turns out its the LC Prado in this review, which is a 4Runner

Fair enough. Except we are both wrong. The Land Cruiser Prado - which is in this review, is actually not a Land Cruiser - it’s the 4Runner platform.

Isn’t the Prado on the same platform and available there?

Let me rephrase. The 4Runner is among the best offroad SUVs available. Period. Just because Toyota has two of them, seems like it shouldn’t be left out.

No 4Runner? Props for the cruiser but the runner is no slouch

Eh. It’s a little more complex than that. I don’t think buying new vs. used really comes down to whether or not you believe in fun cars and want to enjoy cars. And what you’re suggesting sounds a little like a situation where the majority of America wouldn’t be able to enjoy cars if they thought like you do.
