I’ve got a buddy whose Father-in-law picked up a C7 back when they were new. Not just any C7, but one where he ticked every single option box except Z06 or ZR1. Spent over $100k on a Corvette with the base LT1 engine. I still struggle to understand that decision.

As soon as it was confirmed that the 3rd gen Colorado was going crew cab / short bed config only I pulled the trigger on an extended cab / long bed diesel. Coming from an Xterra, it was a bit of an adjustment to the lack of secure, in the vehicle storage. Yes, I could get a camper or hard cover but it’s nice having

It really is about perfect. Unfortunately the owner wasn’t around.

Haven’t played it, so don’t know about spoilers.  Was referring to the avatar hating bit that always follows.

I’m just here for the inevitable uproar over your character screenshots

I’ve wondered why MS didn’t do anything with the haptics for this generation, given that (IIRC) they beat Sony to the punch last gen with the trigger buzz.  

every time I try to sell it for what the market price is, I get hit with the “WHY ARE THEY SO EXPENSIVE”?

I’ve been really curious about that.  Has the CT even been crash tested yet?

690 isn’t great for the loaded-down highway touring, but I think it’s perfect for two laners and gravel roads. Even better after finally putting up the cash for a Seat Concepts seat.

One of the fun parts of riding the 690 is the “low” end torque available. Low being relative - it’s still at 6500 rpm, but that’s 1500 rpm sooner than this new Duc, and the 690 also makes 8 lb/ft more.

Not nearly enough lights for a real overlander.

Yeah, I’m 42 and I think, since the time I made it to the “make stupid purchasing decisions solo” age, I’ve only had one auto loan over 5%, and that was almost 20 years ago.  

You’d be surprised. I worked at a bike shop for years, making a pretty broad spectrum of friends. This was also pre-2016, when folks kept their shitty racist opinions a bit more on the down low. Luckily I was getting out of the retail side of things around 2014, but still had friends (former customers) on facebook -

So you LITERALLY have not seen any modern truck with over 28,000 miles, eh?

Huh?  My work truck is a 2018 Silverado 2500 and it has 314,000 miles on it.

Amen.  I can do some work remote, but for the most part I have to be in the workplace.  The more people working from home, the less in my way for the commute.  The first six months of COVID commuting were glorious.

STOP FUCKING TAILGATING!

And yet, here you are.  Clicking the article and commenting on it, adding to two metrics that ensure more of these articles.

Every single Colorado of this modern generation is outfitted with a turbocharged 2.4-liter I4 that makes 310 horsepower and 390 lb-ft of torque
