I find the Purple Rain method preferable...

…[works] for up to six months, but… you’ll probably want to reapply after three months…

Yeah, well, waiting doesn’t work very well, as everyone rushes in and scoops up all the “good stuff” thinking they are getting bargains. By the time the price drops to any serious discount, it’s all crap by then. I’ve been to 5-6 liquidation sales since the Recession started in ought-8, and never found anything good.…

Don’t you dare infringe on the yoga pants percentage ratio.

I, for one, would like to see a study on if more skirts would be worn if all cars came with crotch vents standard

Exploiting a loophole legally is not cheating. It is beyond tacky, but it is no different than taking advantage of a tax break build into a tax code. Most of the outrage arising out of this should be aimed at the legislators/regulators who did not produce rules and regulations that clearly set forth what was…

If you are regularly carrying a credit card balance I don’t blame lenders for not taking a risk in you.

The answer is that whether you pay your landlord is not the bank’s problem. The fact that the landlord decided you were an acceptable risk doesn't mean the bank must as well. People can and do fail to pay rent, and then landlords have to threaten, cajole, or go to court to collect those funds and/or evict. If the bank…

That may be tough. The donkey died.

You must be buying some real cheap shit or you live somewhere that is somehow harder on your appliances.

My house is 110 years old. How much longer do you think my ice box is likely to last?

Had a GTI for 7 years, loved it. Then had two consecutive BMW 335s over a period of 5 years, loved those. Traded a 335 for a 4Runner when I had kids, currently love that. Gave the 4Runner to my wife and traded her old Focus in to purchase my current commuter vehicle - you guessed it, another GTI. Coming back to a GTI…

Yes! Love mine to pieces and can confirm it’s basically the perfect all-rounder.

I have one that looks identical to the picture you posted, except with the sunroof. I’ve had mine less than 2 months so I can’t comment on the long term ownership experience, but I’m still definitely not tired of the car. I look forward to driving it every single time I get behind the wheel, and still find excuses…

I was going to say Focus RS for this question, but then I realized, GTI really is the answer. Plus, it’s more than $10,000 less, brand new. My want for one of these gets stronger all the time.

I’m gonna go with the Volkswagen GTI. You really can't go wrong with one anywhere. It's pretty fast, fun, manual, practical, has a nice interior, and is relatively affordable to boot. It is truly the best of all worlds.

The driver was 18 and technically an “adult”. What will you sue her family for?

Yes, but they aren’t worth billions of dollars.

Sure, squeeze that stone and see how much blood comes out.
