I stopped browsing BaT for mainly that reason.

Did they not do breakfast only places? Dunkin Donuts in the northeast is a nightmare. My wife likes their coffee (I do not) and sometimes the drive thru line is a 15 minute excursion. When I treat her with a D&D coffee I drive across town to the one that isn’t drive thru only and go inside the store. It is ten times…

I really wish XT’s were easier to restore. I have a friend that tried, and parts were just bloody impossible to find. It was a weird car way ahead of its time. 

A bit surprising is it not? It has an oddly styled exterior, it was obscure enough to hide in plain site, and an interesting engine, and was useful. You’d think it would have more appreciation!

Plus it is easy to sort out the fleet ones. They are either marked as town cars, or they don’t have a third row, they’ll have a bar running across the cabin behind the back seat.

Clean roadies are getting harder and harder to find. The prices are starting to creep up. I wouldn’t blink buying this vehicle, but I’ve also wanted one of these things since they came out when I was a kid. 

I like the looks of the SE. I was quoting out a new one and that’s where I got my 34k figure from. That seems to be going rate up here for them. They aren’t selling all that well and the highlanders are flying off the lot.

I would completely try this out of morbid curiosity. On paper it doesn’t seem like it would work... But now I’m curious. 

Mellowcream pumpkins are the only reason I get excited for halloween every year. It is an annual tradition that I eat way to many of them and I feel like death for 48 hours. Am I going to do it again this year at some point? YUP

Also a great name for a thrash metal band.

I personally like the mazda 5. If they still made them I would completely buy one. I don’t find them too stodgy to drive. I’ve had a few as rentals and I’ve enjoyed it every time. The only concern I would have with one is that they weren’t tremendously high on safety ratings when they were out, and there’s been quite…

We’re at max capacity. I also have a difficult time calling the middle of the second row a “seat”. Nobody wants to sit in the middle.

My old job I drove 36k miles a year. The majority of that mileage came in the first year and a half of ownership. I’ve slowed down quite a bit. I’m in “low miles lease” territory per year now. 

Collectible is subjective. If someone wants to collect this car, it is collectible. 

Yeah I have no minivan stigma. They are fantastic vehicles, I just can’t swallow the pricetag.

She has an outback and doesn’t want to get rid of it. 

That’s what I’m thinking. I only have a handful of payments left on the 3 hatch. I don’t want to start over again when I have something with an ideal price tag in hand. Plus I live in the Northeast, and I really don’t want to pay property tax on a 30k plus car.

If they still made wagons, I’d be all about one. I also don’t want to pay nearly 40k for a buick tourx. I’m waiting for those to start to hit the CPO market. If it depreciates like a Buick, it is a tempting option.

That’s what I’m thinking. I like my 3, and if I can tough it out for a few years, it’ll still be in tip top shape and cost me nothing. Once the whole team is front facing (or even better, in a booster) things will be back to normal. I didn’t have this problem when there was only one tiny person. Now with multiple this…

Man I threw you a softball right down the pipe didn’t I?
