Great interview!

More like “I drive one to the country club, and the other when I need to rent a car at a podunk airport”.

Whatever the number, this is definitely NP.

Why do you think it only has 600-something miles on it?

^ This, any day, every day. 

I’m gonna be that guy.

I was in market for a pick up truck a couple years ago. And all I wanted was something basic like an old Ranger from the 80s.  I knew they didn’t exist any more, but I went to a Ford dealer to see what they have on offer anyway. I told the sales guy that I really want a very basic hauler, and he tried to sell my F-150

A 750hp garage queen truck. Yeah, that makes sense.

I voted “albatross” and it’s not even showing on the results.

This is no dice on every level. It leaks, shit is broken, no mileage listed, it’s old. And I wouldn’t consider the engine swap exactly an upgrade over the stock 3.8 minivan engine this thing left the factory with. I’ll keep saving for a Bronco.

The 30 extra miles of range is gained after the rear bumper cover falls off.

Florida Man is actually a police officer? 

Mission critical systems are not the same as typical software/hardware development. Everyone now is so used to the whole “release and iterate” notion of development.

This is nothing compared to soccer where you truly have dynasties where the wealth differences can be astronomical in the national leagues and in Champions League, as well as these teams actually dominating their national leagues.

being poor is expensive

Were there other candidates for the new poll name? I’m struggling to think of anything good right now, but was there a focus group or how did this go down?

That’s how I measure this too.  $16k = lots of fun cars. 

This is the equivalent of the special guest you pick up at the bar with your beer goggles fully activated. Ferrari at night, Toyota in the morning.

$16k without AC?  Huge, huge negative, plus what everyone else says - why ruin a Turbo MR2 when a Fiero would have done just fine?

Crack pipe. If it can’t even pass the sniff test in the pictures then it won’t in person. At least not to anyone who gives a damn about cars anyway.

You can get a lot of cool and unique cars for 16k. This is neither.
