Bezos, Musk, Buffet, etc. didn’t write the laws. That’s pretty freaking clear. Did they, or corporations they represent, support lobbyists that push for specific tax laws...likely. But the blame goes directly toward those that write the laws, not those that support them.
The fix is simple - but won’t happen as the fix…

Your take is that subprime lenders are bad. That’s fine - but what is the solution? Not lending to these people?
Now you are going to say “we can’t take access to loan money from those that need it most.” You then state we simply have to cap interest rates, penalties, etc.
NP. Reasons are its a mid-engine sports car that, even though may have been produced in numbers, is rare. A 70's 911 goes for strong money, yet I actually see them driving around. I never, ever see these.
That said, if I owned this (no interest - neat, but not what I’d want), I would be on a removal rampage. Dump the…
Tires + track surface make an insane difference. A car like the roadster is likely on some very track oriented, soft tires. Take it to a drag strip that is properly prepped, AWD on sticky tires, and with the torque and likely well calculated traction control on the car, and it may be possible.
I found on a forum a…
What’s the point in a small truck? They don’t do truck things well but are priced too closely to full size trucks. They can’t haul as well, they don’t tow as well, and typically their fuel mileage isn’t much better.
I looked at a fully loaded Canyon Denali before buying my Sierra. It was smaller, but wasn’t as nice,…
I support this bill but it should be worded differently. The front can’t be more than 3" higher than the rear. That also prevents idiots from the gross overloading of the rear as well, causing the same effect.
Almost 200k miles. Several obvious fixes need to take place. $6500.
That’s Boxster money...but you can get a Boxster with less miles in similar (or better) condition for that price. I can’t imagine picking this over a Boxster for similar money.
So $2500 gets you a slow, FWD econobox from a manufacture that left the US because of the garbage they were selling (I owned an ‘84 Alliance in ‘95 - they make POS automobiles). It needs work with parts that will suck to get, is ugly, and doesn’t do much of anything well. Anything over scrap value is a waste on this…
40-60k car and you have to be “rich” to buy one? You realize the average new car price (read: AVERAGE) is nearly 40k.
It’s not that potential buyers are rich - you are just broke.
I just took the Bronco as being something he restored with his dad, perhaps when he was younger and less of a loser. Not that there was any story line to support that, but his parents seemed pretty involved at least.
Prime has some good originals as well. The Boys being their best (and what a damn good show that is).
Any voting NP is clueless. $21,000 is barely the down payment on what this will cost you to own. These are super unreliable, expensive parts, and painful to fix.
A little common sense would tell you this. This is 20 year old car that appears in great cosmetic condition, only 24k miles (barely over 1k/year), and sold…
The inventory shortage at the largest volume GMC dealer in the nation (where I bought my truck in ‘18) is the reason I haven’t upgraded to a ‘21. Like the dealer - best prices of ANY of them, and I searched hard, no haggle pricing, no BS feeds. Had an offer for my ‘18 for more than I paid for it. They just didn’t have…
NP, only because these are selling for stupid money now.
These are money pits for certain. Engines are also unreliable and pricey to repair. It’s one decent issue from being smarter to just do an LS swap, giving it more reliability, way more power, better fuel mileage, and less weight. Actually, it will improve the…
Carvana and the like want late model, low mileage stuff. They don’t have access to lease returns like the OEM dealerships, so they have to buy leases out at a premium or barely used owned cars at a premium. They make their money in financing. This is why they are offering me more than I paid for my truck 2.5 years ago…
I have a Sun Joe I used for washing the car’s (it is sufficient for a foam cannon but my gas power washer foams better). It looks like this one doesn’t user their proprietary connection, which is good, though there are adapters out there you can use to bypass that problem.
If wanting to use this for pressure washing…

This car was a POS new. Leaving it as basically new and storing it for 35 years doesn’t change the fact it was a POS...it just now feels like MORE of one than it did 35 years ago.
There is nothing good about driving this car. Slow, FWD, Autotragic, drive it at all and what small amount of value it has goes away. I…
I didn’t care all that much before I started working from home a year ago. Now I care even less.
What portion I do care about is the inconvenience of needing to fill up. My truck does fairly well. My boat does well - for what it is - but this time of year I am putting more fuel in it than all of our three vehicles…
Nice list of excuses. Never said I had it the worst or anywhere close to it. But you spend more time focusing on someone or something bringing you down than doing something to bring yourself up.
Yes, many of your excuses can make it harder. Many of them may present a ceiling. Guess what, that ceiling (which can be…
