I’m a fan of the audi MMI setup. And really, who uses oem nav anymore? Audi has just the right amount of physical buttons compared to what is accessed onscreen. At least up through the 2015 MY. Our 2007 Q7 mmi was way easier and user friendly than our 2017 Pacifica setup. Almost all touchscreen.... hate it.

Make sure he has gap coverage, and good insurance, and hope the truck gets totaled.

It looks like a boxy first gen Q7, the interior is okay, but again, looks just like the first gen Q7. The exterior though, that looks like the Mitsubishi full size SUV, or even a bit of the Acadia, or the traverse, or the..... it looks nice, don’t get me wrong, but it doesn’t look very distinctive. In the end,…

First gen cts-v. Total sleeper and a fun car. This one shouldn’t break 10k with the mileage on it. I still miss mine.

I hate that come in for pricing bullshit.... on to the next dealer.

I was thinking Kenan Thompson put on some weight.

If you read the article the key is for both lanes to be maintaining the same speed, that would mean no assholes running up the open, soon to end, lane. If both lanes were moving more in unison, then it could work by just not being a prick and letting a car in, but again, if both lanes are running at the same pace,…

No loss of jobs is good, even if they are overpaid. The unions served a purpose back in the day and helped make things better for workers all over, but it really seems like they don’t have a clue anymore. Sad really. And as much as you want to say they are overpaid, I wouldn’t do that work for what they get paid. But…

Hit me right in the feels. Some things you just can’t put a price tag on. That’s awesome you were able to get some time with your pops. I wished I could have done the same with my old man before he passed. I still cherish those pre driving memories of him and I working on our family vehicles. He is responsible for my…

I hit the cruise this year, as I I’ve done for the past 3-4 years and I agree with your statement regarding the “regular cars” wadding up the cruising cars. I also am one of those “regular cars” as I don’t have the room to house a vintage ride at this time. I try to stay out of the curb lane so I don’t gum up the…

Unless they are jalops too. I know one neighborhood we were looking at had some nice rides in garages as we were driving through and I told my wife, yeah this is will be a nice neighborhood. My kind of neighbors. We both had a good laugh because we know it's true. I'd see this rig and figure that's mine kind of…

Thank you for the clarification, I was not understanding how anything is moving in the gearbox once the vehicle is stopped. Makes sense now.

I always found it best to slide the shifter into first while I was almost to a complete stop, but most times I was already coming from second gear, so it would slide into gear smoothly. Those damn t-56s.

I didn't say the car covered the cost of the ring ;).... It didn't, but it was necessary to cover some of the cost.

The want is strong with this one. I didn't know they brought the RS 4 over in the b8 platform.

I can't complain, I got the better end of the deal. And as she likes to remind me. I've had some pretty nice rides since then, so in the end, it was well worth it. But I'd still drive the shit out of one of those old first gen neons.

Yeah, and once I ponied up for a set of race tires, wow, such a difference. The konis really didn’t do much for me, i never really adjusted them, but it was nice to be able to if needed I guess, so the r/t didn't miss out on much. The gearing definitely helped, as did a few degrees of negative camber. So much fun and…

Yup the acr was where it’s at. Cheap to run, cheap to fix. And once you cut off the 50lb muffler, it will tricycle with the best of them. (50lbs may be a slight exaggeration.... But it was heavy). And if you wanted to make it rotate, just lift off the throttle. Those little cars could dance.

Amen, preach brotha.... I hate that bs. If I wanted to call you, I’d have just called in the first place. I’m just glad there are multiple dealers in our area, and since I’m not averse to driving a few hours to do a car deal, I can cast my net far and wide. I’ll hit up a handful and only those who respond back timely…

That’s an interesting point. It makes sense too. Once you figure out that you can string a car along for a few more years, you find all sorts of uses for that “extra” money.
