When has the F35 ever not been sold as and end to bit piece? Is there some other fifth generation fighter project that we are all oblivious to that is going to fill the gaps the F35 leaves? The Navy and Marines will ether be flying these or Super Hornets. The Brits can only fly these from their new carrier since the…

That’s all great points but in a shooting war this thing turns into the modern day equivalent of a THUD in a hurry. It’s dependent on technology and stealth do all the things. Meanwhile the real badguys of the next shooting war... ( hint not dudes in mud huts who have been fighting for 1000 years) have been developing…

I really dislike the idea of the F-35 and it’s one size fits most concept but the Marines and Great Britain (They have a super carrier and no aircraft for it) do need a STOVL or VTOL aircraft that is not a helo for their own flattops so they can provide a limited fighter cap, close air support and strike capabilities…

Nah he will find a lawyer but it will never get to that point...The whole were going to fix them and sell them is PR. If he does not take the buyback he is free to sue since he is not a member of the class action. VW does not want that... Not at all.

VW does not want this back in court anyway... They are not going to…

They can’t fix them. Nothing short of a full engine swap is ever going to fix these things...

This guys just getting clicks. The car gets NDA Clean trade in regardless of condition. That’s been proven.

VW wants them off the road because there is nothing stopping the individual states to create a new law that fines VW per day these things are registered in the state. This is the vehicle equivalent of lawn…

99% of the people don’t get why they are buying back the vehicles... It’s not so they can fix them.

It’s to get the SOB’s off the road or risk facing future fines as long as they are on the road from every agency looking to make a quick buck. EPA might have capped their fines but Cali or any over state can call VW and…

I know that is is corporate line. It’s just not going to happen. There is no fix. If they could flash these things and it be over and done with then it would have been done by now.

At a certain point it becomes a wiser financial decision. VW is more than it’s American brand. It’s amputating an arm to save the patient. With more bad news inbound with the other engine Its pretty clear some radical things are going to be on the table.

Again I stand by the theory that these things can not be fixed.…

Not saying you lose VW as a whole but that it’s entirely possible you lose Volkswagen of America, Inc.

At what point do we look at the delays and all the yellow tape and seriously start to consider if VW is just buying time for a bankruptcy filing? Unless I am mistaken all the owners would be treated as creditors and most would end up SOL.

Joe will most likely win a bigger teddy bear...

That is actually a direct quote from a comment on the first story.... What’s the odd’s someone spoofed a number and is taking Joe for a ride?

Joe’s going to get paid... Hopefully he forwarded the email the the US District Court...

That’s kind of the point I was making but have not seen it get much attention. These things are not going to be put back on the road.. VW knows this and so does the US Gov. They are just saying they are working on a fix for warm and fuzzies so their PR team can try to spin the disaster. The minute these cars are…

They are never going to fix these vehicles....

If they could be fixed they would have been before VW took ownership of the vehicle. The vehicles is used. End of story. VW can’t slap the fix on it and put it back on the new side. It will have to be sold as pre-owned and VW can not sell this many vehicles on their…

Not really. The corp lawyers are going to tell VW to play nice and take the car back. The last thing they want is to open the floodgates again by failing to adhere to the settlement.

Joe Blow taking parts off his car does not equal a dismantled title. That happens when you sell your car to a salvager.

Pretty much all the title laws exist so the vehicle you buy can’t be sold as clear if it’s been flooded, totaled, is a cut and weld job of two vehicles, etc.

The reason they included this is because…

Have you ever stopped and look at the deathtraps people drive around??? This is still 100 times more roadworthy than a severely swayback frame backyard engineered convertible f-100 with home made half doors sans mirrors, no hood and raw bulbs as tail lights.... (actual vehicle I pass from time to time on my way to…

Owners yes... VW never... It would destroy their OEM manufacturers replacement parts market.
