Send that jalopy to Point Nemo.

The other thing about the story is, I didn’t think tow companies can tow with people in the car. And I mean, they can’t even put it on the hook and then demand you get out. So as much as they and the cops were total asses I still smell a little fish with this story.

Reasons much bigger then having 2 (old) and 1 new(er) car bud. Divorce is an ugly thing. Have a great day.

This is Credit Acceptance’s M.O

If it got a couple extra dollars at auction because it looked clean, that is a couple less dollars that they would be chasing you for.

I was self conscience about it. I was already getting my car repo’d. I didn’t want it to look thrashed and not taken care of. Even my wife said it was stupid and pointless to do.

Once in my early 20s, I had a car repo’d.

Lol, I usually still do for µTorrent because I can’t remember the alt-code for µ, but I’ll go through the effort for special occasions or when it’s easy to copy/paste like the above.

...but he’d need 5 of them.

I’m not going to lie: one of these is on my list of oddballs and underdogs I’d buy for my hypothetical collection. Such a weird fucking car.

Well it is maroon!

Adam Levine may be Captain Douche, commander of the Douche Patrol, but it appears he got swindled making a deal involving some amazing cars -- even though it also appears he was trying to do the due diligence to ensure he did NOT get swindled. Wrong is wrong, and we shouldn’t be hating on the victim in this case.

Lol, I know it happens every day and I hope any dealer that knowingly swindles their customers gets some form of punishment, being financial or corporal (preference on the latter, but that’s just me). I do not, however, give a single shit about this guy’s problems. He’s got enough money that he could afford to pay

Ah, but not really. Dealers pull this crap all the time. It’s not ‘salvage’, but was in a flood, and you think you’re getting something you’re not. I’m glad people at all levels are calling out scammers on their bullshit. Whether it’s a $1K, $10K, or $1,000K car, the douche bags that believe this BS is acceptable are

Some back of the napkin math and adjusted for relative net worth I’d be out about 3 grand. I spent more than twice that on a used entry-level motorcycle 6 months ago, and I had that just sitting in my checking account. A million is couch change for this dude.

Thank you for actual technical talk instead of Elon bad or Elon good.

How else are you supposed to get the bottom clean?

Synthetic and hydrogen fuels take a large amount of energy to create.
