Where did I pass judgement, really?

Or is that some kind of little field course?

At least they’ll be rolling in comfort.....

My van most days:

Pretty sure most manufacturers got into the game of calling their vans something other than vans long before Mercedes (see 3 row crossover, aka sliderless minivans).

it’s actively malevolent because it means millions of tons more CO2 being produced in the meantime.

I daily drive 25+ yo Mopars,

And have the whole car go into lockdown because 3/4 of the car is controlled by it?

1. Chevys of that era rotted like crazy no matter how well they were cared for.

What if I told you there will be plenty of used/non-connected vehicles to purchase for decades to come?

It’s bondo and rattle can, I can see the waves/bubbles just looking at the pics.

It will be decades before this becomes an issue.

The mileage, rust, and lack of 4wd kill it for me. If it was 4wd, I could still get on board for $1400, but being 2wd, I’d give $800 top dollar.

Non connected cars will continue to exist for decades yet, that is, once you realize new is not the only option.

You know there are cars other than “new” right?

It’s clearly not rust free though.

If you overlook the rust hole on the hatch’s bottom edge right of the spare and obvious rattle canned bottom half hiding rust.

Rust free

Is there anything we can do about it?

Safe dry speed =/= Safe inclement speed.
