actually, as someone with no credit history whatsoever I was advised to use little loans like that for stuff i could have bought cash in hand. Pay it back in an effective manner and earn myself some credit history.

Well, i mean saying NB has gone to shit is like saying “Babylon fell”. I mean NB has certainly been shit my whole life, and probably my Dads whole life too. Though as someone who used to live in Brockton it was really nice going to another city and not having to say “damn this is way nicer than back home”

There are certainly some vehicles I wish had automatics every time i drive them. Like my ford 3000, with the 8 speed for instance.

If thats true however, it is conceivable that some combinations would be best suited to electronic shifting styles that is shifts so quick no human could replicate it. Not all mind you, and saying “well this power train is no good for a stick” is kind of a cop out, but conceivably there are scenarios where non-human…

They will find some way to ban it. Like how WAZE endangers cops because it points out where the openly visible police officers on public roads are. Someone will stand to loose money and they will make sure its useless.

Yeah i’ve never understood some people’s rationale in the value of their cars. I put 600 bucks worth of brakes and various other bits on there in January so it would pass inspection. That does not raise the value by 600 dollars. There are SO many people who you go to haggle with and they say “well i just put 400 bucks…

No way, me and that roof rack go way back. The set was bought for a 96? (maybe earlier?) Saab 900 and put in hard time on that car. Then they moved to a 97 ford escort which I learned to drive on. Then many years on a VW jetta wagon. Two years off while i drove a Honda CR-V. To my delight they fit the focus with only…

i know goddamn that green, and the contrast with the trim pieces, oh jesus

This was 2 years ago before i gave in and switched to NY plates, was taken in Ithaca NY. Though being from MA and having spent a fair bit of time in the NB area your right, A lot of the houses look very similar and the layout has similarities. All about when the towns had money and prosperity and stuff.

This one was a fleet car for NYSEG a few owners ago i think. Fleet white is very popular you know.

I’d like a channel of “raph swearing”. And its just hundreds of videos of Orlove in an upturned beetle muttering profanity to himself.

Goddamn your right! I’m such an idiot. Theres no fathomable way that this quick post on jalopnik from work might not have included the same detailed photos used in the online ads. Clearly i took this post verbatim from CL.

Isn’t that the trim level? What else would “focus S” stand for?

1. I’m an agricultural scientist. Summer months I barely have time to goldbrick on jalopnik and the few weekends I’ve had since the snow melted there are laundry lists of repairs for my current car and Mrs. Noise’s car. So unfortunately they always take priority.

i always thought it was a handsome car. Its ok no one is!

From the post “hubs are no longer orange roof racks are not included”

Yeah no kidding but I’m not selling it to you guys and that’s the only pic I had handy. Hubs are back to stock for sale of course

The ad has current and accurate photos this is just all I have on my phone. I’m not trying to sell it on here so I didn’t bother getting the same photos.

Ooh no there was tons of new car demand, no question. But they don’t pull a lot of used interest the way Hondas Toyota’s and scoobies do for “reliability” or the way jeeps or something do from enthusiasts. Nobody seeks out a used Saturn so your market is single moms for nice ones and high school students for all the…

but look how streamlined the Sonetts are!
