What do you end up with? Only rental I’ve ever had was when our Forester was in the bodyshop (🖕🏻 deer). We got a mid-trim level Kia Forte. It had the base engine(1.8 if I recall correctly). For daily commuting it was great. Comfortable, fuel efficient, quiet, not too many gadgets but not covered in blank spots all…

Sorry to say I’m not surprised at reading this. Damn shame because from a non-VAG owner looking at one it’s super appealing. But alas, I’m not brave enough to try to rely on on ,…
For a 1.8L 4 cylinder with total build cost /car cost of less than ~$4,000-$4500 that could easily be driven on the street, and still handled well …? It wasn’t bad. For 1320Video.com standards? Slow as shit.
Heh, no doubt tons of shitboxes rock those. Unfortunately for those that legitimately have used the ones on their cars ,…
Arg. Those are fun in stock form or appropriately modified. Albeit the beak is hideous!
Eh, posers look for catching attention. How many beyond real or dedicated enthusiasts notice what type of tires are on a vehicle?
How or what do you measure “crappy” by? I had an EF hatch/4th gen Honda Civic that pulled a 12.60@108mph in all motor guise (on pump gas). It could consistently pull 12.60s-12.80s pending on conditions. It had factory EF red paint (overall decent shape). Lowered with gold rims and yes, a tow hook.
I’ve ridden in one in the wild ,…(does that count if it’s a family friend owned car?)
Airbag light- In Virginia, the SRS/Airbag light will fail a vehicle for state inspection. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen or heard where the light come on and off randomly , had it diagnosed to no avail,…
We made slide shows on Windows 95(was that PPT back then?) in school,…around that age I remember playing the original sim city and that skiing game where the Yeti eats you,…also, Wolfenstien!
For $00.00 , that is more than okay with me!

Millennial here. I’d much rather be able to put in whatever aftermarket head unit I want, that way when the inevitable happens and the system is way outdated, it’s easy to upgrade in my driveway with basic tools.
“Good deal” ?
“Good deal” ?
Easy. I made the effort to come there for a specific deal, at least gives me the opportunity to get said deal or better*. Take the time to look for alternatives.
For me the reply would be extremely easy. Pull out smart phone, pull up email, this is what you said. I’m setting a timer for 10 minutes and going in autotrader.com while I wait. If you don’t come back with this OR LESS THAN THIS, I leave and never return.
Around here it’s the opposite. I don’t know why, ever since I’ve moved to the mountains, I’ve noticed a couple of horrible trends. People love to pull out RIGHT in front of me when I’m literally the only car around and in sight(often I have to brake pretty hard). People also love to go under the speed limit. All.…
Edit: nevermind. I think I misread your post originally. Sorry.
Weird. In my home state of Virginia when you cross a state line into it there is always signs that say “burn headlights with wipers, state law”( don’t remember exact words). I always assumed we were a rarity doing that because they felt the need to post signs, haha. Out of habit I always do when traveling anyway ,…
Weird. I never heard of that one. When I had my XJ I did have people that thought it was a super old JGC. I also had people that thought I had swapped in the manual transmission, “because it’s an SUV. Why is it a manual?”
