That’s fair, it probably depends on the neighborhood, just like the other comment that it is junkies. Ours is definitely 15-16 year olds, not sophisticated enough to do any identity theft beyond using your CC of they get it.

You’re asking the wrong question. You should be asking why people leave cash and credit cards inside of a car that they are not presently occupying. Most times they won’t even take cupholder change, they want easy and quick and obvious.

Simplifying police work and making it easier to catch criminals is NEVER a satisfactory reason to trample rights and generally harass a law abiding public.

No wonder things like this exist with people like you around.

Since I just purchased my 2014 Flex SEL AWD last March, I guess I am either the best or worst qualified person to give an opinion.

“Hey baby, how’d you like to join the approximately 240,000 mile high club?”

So it makes sense, but it is also a strange look?

By the time I read everything, only about half of the car pictures had loaded, but 13(!) individual ads loaded for a pretty fancy woodchipper. So I am left thinking that a woodchipper was the most important thing of the last 15 years.

I’m not so sure it can be considered ‘predicting the future’ if you just don’t change your designs for a (human) generation and are still essentially making the same car 15-20 years down the road. If it was, then I guess Chrysler with the 300, Charger, and Challenger were the most futuristic cars of aughts.

I’ll respond to you mostly for your first sentence and in advance note that this is a long reply that makes this seems super-serious and it certainly isn’t. It is mostly just a conglomeration of thoughts and not entirely directed back towards you. So, sorry in advance.

Counterpoint: I am not an F1 fan, but if I apply this broadly to all sports I disagree. Social media is a scourge for intelligent thought but a boon for the 24-hour sports ‘news’ cycle. I thought I would miss ESPN when I ditched cable years ago but when I catch it now, I realize I spared myself a load of nonsense.

I love the SHO. I had a beater 92 at one point, but 89-91 is the gen to have. The engine has a great sound and period power.

Back in my day!

This is what gets me. Most people will be financing these gifts. So you’re making a decision for the household finances with only one party’s input. Seems like a terrible gift.

Since Alexis Texas is a real porn star name, then...yes?

I could only think about this scene because you brought up rattle cans.

Ah, I somehow completely skimmed over the fact that it was a wagon.

Are you sure it wasn’t an SHO? No new MT-5s after 88. SHO in 91 was still manual only with a nice 220hp screaming Yamaha V6. Actually would have been a nice pick for a young kid with an influx of cash.

Yup, 86-87 only for the MT-5 wagon (not sure how that meshes with the story of ordering one new in 91 above, maybe it was used?).

My first car was a 93 Ford Taurus, as such I learned more than anyone ever really needs to know about the line. I used to know exterior colors and available interior colors for each color by model year largely because the one I had was green/black which had to be ordered as only grey/beige/green were the suggested…
