Oh we did. My wife has a 5th gen that we’ve owned since new. Has 80k miles on it and it has been 100% trouble free aside from one passenger side airbag recall and a TSB for a front differential carrier bearing, both of which were taken care of during the same service appointment AND we were given a loaner.

Keep. Your. FJ (if you can). Use it while your Bronco is in the shop for recall work and/or warranty repairs w/o a loaner.

My kids are 3 & 6. They both fit comfortably behind my wife & I for short (sub 1-hr) trips. When the thing runs right, my kids love it. It is white & my 3 year old cries when I tell her we have to take any other car but the white car.

This type of failure is why I finally lost the old-car-as-a-daily-driver argument.

They were cancelled by the buyers because the dealer tacked on a $20k ADM.

I drive past a lot full of $100k Ford Broncos on my daily commute. Methinks they’re gouging a bit on those as well...

Kinda gettin’ Kinja’d here but there were some good ones in Maine...

That NIMBY crowd is succeeding thus far in their efforts to shut down Santa Monica airport. You may remember the Santa Monica airport as, the place where airplanes have been manufactured & flying out of for nearly 100 years... long before the NIMBYs bought houses around the airport at a significant discount BECAUSE of …

Idiot here (w/a day 1 Lightning reservation), I ain’t payin’ shit. Can’t speak for my fellow idiots, however. #notallidiots or something.

The trick is finding one who will put, on paper, that they won’t apply ADM. None of the 7 I called prior to landing on the one I made my reservation with would commit on paper to that.

My local Ford store is listing 2021 Broncos north of $130k, most of which MSRP under $60k. And the kick in the teeth? Folks are buying them. Like hotcakes. They have a USED 2021 on their lot right now for $96,900 and thats all they have in stock at the moment. There is a first edition “in transit” listed for $138k.

Oh yeah the 2018+ Mazda6 is gorgeous inside & out. Only reason I didn’t go with one is because after 2017.5 they only made the “sport” trim with the manual transmission, and I really wanted all of the doo-dads the Touring and above models came with plus the manual because I’m a bit of a curmudgeon.

I’ll definitely pour one out for the Mazda6. Mine was a 2017.5 Touring 6 spd manual. It was a wonderful car. The 6 spd was decent, fit & finish was exceptional and it handled well - all while returning an average of 36 MPG over my ownership (I saw as high as 41 MPG between fill ups on a few occasions). It was quiet,…

According to Internet lore, there is a MotorTrend review which indicates a fuel-injected 4 spd 3.70 rear end C2 Corvette in real-world testing saw 18 MPG highway, 14 MPG overall. It is referenced in a few places (wikipedia, fandom, forums, etc) but I have yet to see an accurate citation.

Reverse Stubby Bob.

2005 Legacy GT Wagon (2 of them).

1 click up on the handbrake (not enough to actually engage it, but enough to kill the DRLs) and my passenger can play “Game Snacks” on Android Auto via the car’s touchscreen.

I’ve had a few Mazdas w/this head unit, the only issue I ever had with it was the screen overheating on some 100f days when I forgot to put up my windshield shade while parked. Reverse camera still worked flawlessly, however.

I rode in the passenger side of my Mustang w/a 6 year old sitting behind me the other day. In order for his legs to fit behind me, the seat was configured such that my head was touching the roof, and my knees were in the dashboard.

A few weeks ago I watched a dude in a newer 911 Turbo launch his car over an embankment, through a business park sign and about 100 yards into a field backwards.
