I’m tempted to say a new-car salesman at a Chevrolet, Ford, GMC or Ram dealer with a few full-sized pickups in inventory. The customer comes in, you name your price and—at least for the present time, while the computer chip shortage is in full bloom—they pay it. For at least as long as the supply chain problems are in

Don’t look now, but #1 is already up to $1,250.

As long as that wiring harness was replaced (and that’s what is meant by “updated”), NP all day long.

Is it just me, or do those cylinders (and pistons) look out-of-round?

I haven’t gone through the other 572 (and counting) responses, so if this was covered earlier, forgive me.

That was the standard front and rear for 1978 through 1980; the upper level model had the square-headlight, color-keyed bumper soft nose and the Camaro-like taillights and soft rear to match.

That front (or close enough to it) and rear was still available in all the years of the Monza 2+2; the front and rear on the subject car was the base model for 1978 through 1980.

I wonder if it’s the dealer that’s pushing the more expensive vehicles. Those are the profitable ones, so why should your local Ford dealer have a space for a Fiesta (or a Focus or a Fusion) when that space could be occupied by a much-more profitable Explorer? And there is an alternative for the buyer on a

This car, like all NASCAR stockers, has about as much in common with its production counterpart as it does with the transporter that brought it to the track.

Would that $10,000 include taking on all their debt? 

Anyone who is considering the price based upon what a new Grand Cherokee SRT would cost is failing to consider that this is not a new Grand Cherokee SRT. At this mileage, I would imagine one aspect of the purchase—regardless of price—would be what kind of warranty or service contract would be transferrable or even

Lamborghini Miura. The NY MoMA got it wrong last time; this, not the Countach, deserves the recognition. Arguably one of the most beautiful cars ever made—if not the most beautiful.

It may be better than the alternative. There were a couple stories I remember about a similar situation. The first was in 2015 when Urban Outfitters, rather than hire temporary workers (or give overtime pay to its existing hourly workers) put out a memo “inviting” its salaried middle management staff to come to their

Please keep us posted on this. I think all of us want to hear about what happens to this teenage (bleep)hole, whoever he is.

Get beyond the styling (apparently someone in GM thought, in the early 2000s, that any SUV would sell regardless) and the fact that it was a minivan disguised as an SUV, and the Aztek was a fairly practical vehicle.  Until something went wrong.  (A friend from long ago asked me about replacing the head gasket in one. 

Don’t stop believin’ in the Journey. The interior is soft enough for some lovin, touchin’ and squeezin’. And, when it was available new, you could order one any way you want it. The dealer would have welcomed the business with open arms.

Perhaps the Ford EcoSport. There is no real reason for that car to exist, except to lure people away from the Fiesta and Focus that they probably would have preferred (bad automatic transaxle aside), but Ford figured they could make more money with something that looks more like a quasi-SUV.

The last-gen Lincoln Continental. They used a glorified Ford Fusion (not a bad thing) platform to make a FWD model of a flagship that should have been a dedicated RWD platform. Then, when nobody was fooled, Ford used the example to convince themselves that nobody wanted a luxury sedan. So now Lincoln offers SUVs only.

Thanks anyway, but my ND vote is only because I have an anti-SUV bias. If it were almost any other 1994 Mazda model...

You forgot to mention the three Porsches.
