This is a farm truck. If I was looking for something to use on my property I’d get an actual tractor or a much less expensive truck that’s probably in much better shape. It is neat though, just not $13,500 neat.

Rationally, this is ND, all day. It is objectively a bad vehicle that needs a lot of work.

This makes me sad on so many levels. She is a beautiful thing. A work of art with equally lovely engineering. She is doomed because she was a combination passenger liner as well as a easily converted troop ship if needed. Part of the requirements was to make her as flame-proof as possible. Keep in mind the SS Normandy…

I can smell the inside of this thing from Sacramento.

Jimmy Carter was so right, and we basically ignored him until long after he was out of office.

When my dad’s Super Beetle reached mid-life and needed work at the local VW dealership, I’d come along. I’d take all the brochures: Dasher, Scirocco and Rabbit.

The diecast is a prototype. Delivering next quarter. 

I almost un—ironically want to own one. It would be hard to have one without some irony. They’re not good to drive, none of the land barges from the era are. But it is an experience. Wafting and bouncing down the freeway without a care in the world. And for the price? Easy NP. I’d rather have the BMW, but this…

I love the wheels; not only do I think they fit this car perfectly, but they’re kind of a throwback. Wondering if the MPH vs. KPH thing had to do with when it was brought over. Either way, it looks to be in good shape...I’d drive it!

Cautious NP. MPH vs KPH may be a good thing to check on and not mad about the wheels at all.

Can’t even get a peaceful transfer of power in the crane world.

Hey...that’s what happens when the party you speak of advocates for a lack of education.  

The car did alert after hitting the deer, it just alerted RFK, Jr. to come pick up the carcass and dispose of it in Central Park. That’s the new protocol. 

Maybe it’s something I don’t know about, but the stickers and light showing it’s a manual is pretty damn cheesy. Now we advertise the transmission of a car?

Wrong Granada for sure. That’s the UK one. And the Mark 1 Granada in both sedan and coupe is a fantastic looking thing. 

Duuuuude. This is the Granada mentioned in slide 6.

This fits into my “If a Thing is what you want, this is probable a good one to grab” philosophy. I mean, it’s pretty darn nice for what it is and you’d be hard pressed to find another or restore one to this standard for $12K. I suppose it’d be a fun runaround car if you lived in a resort town or had a house on the…

“But buying the car would likely be a write off”

People are selfish assholes.
