He can bring a gun but I have to toss my toothpaste for being .5 oz too large.  Seems about right.

Which does your cat like better? Widebody or Redeye??  I think this is the only answer that really matters.

Excursion Raptor?! I’ll take one.  Throw a Fiesta Raptor in the back for me as well..... Thanks 

Right, anything is cheap when it doesn’t break. Porsche’s are solid and very reliable, I will not contest that.  BUT the fact that they normally don’t break as much as other cars has a lot to do with the amount they are driven.  Sure your BRZ or Mustang or M3 are going to have more issues because odds are you will

Buying CPO is a great idea and with cars like this it comes highly recommended.  I would have not bought mine if I couldn’t have gotten it.  It’s worth the price just for the peace of mind alone.

For basic maintenance yes I agree with you.  The issue is when something breaks out of warranty or you need brakes and tires at the same time. Every car is different so there is no say “well keeping this 50k mile car for 3 years will only cost you $2k so you will be fine”  75% of the time it’s not that easy.

I didn’t say anything about labor, I was just talking parts are $600. Yes this is all basic stuff but the parts are pricey. I take mine to the dealer because they know me and I get a good deal. A lot of people get into these cars and then have sticker shock when it comes to servicing them. Just because you can afford

A 40k service on a 981 is oil change, spark plugs, cabin filters, air filters and brake flush. You’re looking at $600 just in factory parts for this. Buying a Porsche and using aftermarket maintenance parts is a poor decision, but to each their own.

Nothing is cheap to replace so if you’re lucky and don’t have to do anything except a few $350 oil changes than you’re fine. But if you need to do tires, or brakes, or a major/minor service, or anything to do with the PCM, or god forbid a dash light.

This is a great answer as long as you have the cash to keep it running and pay for $350 oil changes and $2k brake jobs. I know he only said he wanted to keep it for 3 years but if you are looking for a 981 for under $35k than it’s going to have some miles on it.  Nothing is cheap on a Porsche trust me.

Not unless you have another $35k for the just in case maintenance 

Fun? Reliable?? This is the correct answer. Plus it might be worth more than what you buy it for in 3 years.

Thanks for the info!!

I have a question because I am completely ignorant when it comes to EVs. Can any EV pull up to a Tesla fast charger and juice up?? Does Tesla have proprietary ports or are all EVs basically the same when it comes to connectors?  If I have a new BOLT can I go up to a Telsa charger at Whole Foods and charge??

We had this happen to us when we went out of town for a wedding. VERY nice hotel and of course they denied it came from them. Cost us $2500 to have the house heated to kill them. We did it this way because we have pets and didn’t want all the chemicals. Once the bugs were dead it costs us another $1500 to deal with

Which model did she go with? Touring? What has her mpg been? Anywhere close to the 50 claimed?  I am thinking of pairing this with a 981 Cayman as well. 

If the Base and your Touring both use the same powertrain I wonder why the MPG estimate is different between the two? Does all that leather and sunroof really weigh that much?! Hmmmm

$12,525 and STILL hasn’t met reserve??  CP

Once available, everyone and their dad will say the new JEEP truck is the best thing ever but very few people will actually buy one until October when they slash prices because as cool as they are its going to take a special person to buy one at sticker.

Thoughts on the new Accord Sport with a 2.0t and 6 speed?? Just got the girlfriend a new VW Atlas SE with tech package and I am looking to get out of my F150 and into something more fun to drive and with better mileage than the Atlas so we can use it for weekend trips to see family (with the two little ones). I miss
