I had an '11 GT3. I flew to Boise to get it. Driving home to Oregon I knew I had made a mistake. Every little pebble the rear tires pick up sounds like it somehow entered your head and is rattling around in there. Driveway entrances, slight bumps in the road, traffic. That car was a giant pain in the ass to drive. I…
As a former adjuster, I can tell you that your DV claim and your medical claim have zero bearing on what I did, or how I evaluated your claim. If you ask about DV, I'd refer you to my supervisor, I've got nothing to do with it. No, it didn't make me think you talked to a lawyer.
I am in this exact situation and just won a court case to recoup my loss in value from a driver who rear ended me. The drivers insurance (Geico) claimed that loss in value is not a thing if the car was repaired and would not give me a dime for lost value. I filed a lawsuit in small claims court against the driver and…
Whoever thought of making a convertible version of the Nissan Murano was off their rocker, but not quite as crazy as whoever approved the thing. Still though, they took the boring Murano and made it great.
I owe thousands in a bad financial decision and need to get out. Will more debt afford me financial success?
You are 100% completely absolutely correct. The guys who have $100 million — they don't give a shit about potholes. They can get another car, or get it fixed. Me, I worry about scratches and dings and curb rash on the wheels. If you have a sports car and you find yourself nodding at any of my points above, you're not…
Hey, at least it's good for the heart! I'd actually prefer to walk or pedal to work over riding a moped, but if it was feasible for me to take a motorbike, I'd probably do that instead because it's a lot of fun.
I'm assuming that the unreliable money pit in question was purchased new, as I have a hard time envisioning a scenario in which someone could wind up $4k upside-down on a used vehicle that they've financed. With that in mind. I propose another option: Just keep the car. Just how "desperately" does it need to be…
This. I saw one of these morons puttering down the (no slow moving vehicles) highway during an early morning commute a few weeks back. He didn't even have tail lights.
If motorcycles are only safer because their superior braking and acceleration (to avoid accidents) then reccomending a scooter means all the disadvantages of a bike, but without the acceleration or braking.
initially you seemed to be coming off as reasonable, now you're starting to be an ass.
Yes, the guys "I had to lay er down" is making excuses, though a car changing lane into you can go either way.
Not all crashes are avoidable, man. You can ride your best and make every evasive maneuver in the world, but the world doesn't always do what you predict, meaning eventually, you will miscalculate or straight…
Careful with that axe Wes. This was my riding buddy, Dave. He was a mountaineer, mountain biker, skier, road racer, enduro rider and left 14 motorcycles behind in his garage when he was killed. More importantly, he left a wife and three kids. http://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/local/per…
The Bentley customer on average owns 8 cars. The average Bugatti customer has about 84 cars, 3 jets and one yacht."

Recognize that very few people purchase cars (or homes, among other things) as investments. They are buying utility.
