If he is in the Northeast or PNW, shit himself because of how high. Subaru tax is enormous here. They are offering insane amounts on lightly used subarus as we come into winter

We bought my mom a Kia Niro in August through Costco. The dealers aren’t allowed to mark the cars up, but they certainly can try to sell you an emergency roadside kit for $1,800 to make up the difference. Lucky for us, a phrase “fuck you, we’ve got a better offer elsewhere” and a threat to report their tactics to

Because we’ve spent forty years kicking problems down the road for someone to deal with in the future, and the future is now, well, now?

Manchin and the Democrats as a party completely failing to get shit done...

Are you accusing newname of being a token...white? WTF are you even talking about?

I am indescribably tired of my fellow whites. Jfc, do better you dumb fucks. 

And....

I have a reservation, but I’m never paying over MSRP for a normal car (not something actually special). I’ll just keep kicking it down the line until they stop being stupid. 

It really is. The Apple Reality Distortion Field is in full force regarding these things.

YouTube has taught me that you now fill the car with dogshit, glitter and explosives and park it on the porch.

I live in the PNWet. I have to plug it in less often than I expect, maybe every few weeks. It’s a small interior and the door/window seals are mostly OK despite being >20 years old.

I don’t know where you live, but even during the housing downturn that started in 2008, $65k won’t get you a starter home. Unless you’re talking a mobile home. Then $5k will get you a starter home.

@1st gear: I’m ok with subscriptions...when you’re actually paying for ongoing service. For example, the GM SuperCruise subscription. For SuperCruise, for example, GM periodically re-maps the allowed highways. So at least there’s ongoing, related work.

No, they have a subscription model for using the key fob to communicate directly with the vehicle.

Having over-the-air paid software upgrades allows the consumer to have a choice to get something later that was not available at the time of purchase such as enhanced cruise control. That is an actual benefit.

Problem solved?

The number of the spokes shall be three. Not more, not less. 5 is right out. 

I see an opportunity for the aftermarket to offer some creative (or tacky) storage solutions for the extra open space.

Idk, I’ve had an Alltrack for 3+ years and my biggest ergonomic gripe is the full-length center console. I’m like 5'10" tops, but my right knee has always felt sort of crammed against the curvy part of the console no matter where I make adjustments. I saw the passthrough and said, “Damn, look at all that knee space.”

You see, when a Jeep Cherokee and a Lotus Esprit love each other very much...
