GREAT QOTD!
IMHO pickup trucks and (as the always wise V10omous suggested) Wranglers are at their best in the base trim. In the case of pickups, you’ll want to check a couple of option boxes e.g. The Ford F-150's base motor is trash, but for like $750 you can upgrade to the sweetheart 2.7L ecoboost, which is more

4th gear: You’re exactly right. I’m guessing that buyers signed a document which stated something along the lines of “Tesla reserves the right to change the terms of this agreement at any time without notice” because even a novice lawyer who doesn’t even own one gold chain knows to include that as part of any

Super easy NP! Look at other 2008 MY vehicles you can buy for this money and this is among the most desirable.
Edited for spelling after my second cup of coffee.

It is certainly not, because all Broncos have removeable doors and some Wranglers have power locks & windows.

Hey now, I’ve eaten at a Michelin star restaurant and was served foods that were high fat and/or sugar, and the service was quite quick ;)

There are only a handful of cars from 1976 that are worth $7,000, and there are even fewer 1976 model year vehicles worth owning. This is not one of them. No dice at half the price, as the kids say. 

10/10 I would buy that

I’m surprised that Jeep isn’t paying more attention to the other ways that the Bronco is more competitive. Power locks and windows and a hard top are standard on even the cheapest Bronco, which is cheaper than the cheapest Jeep.

Why can’t there be movies like these any more?

I wish the car culture that I grew up around and still participate in, drew half as many women who were just half as good looking as the women in either of those movies. It’s a sausage fest around here and frankly none of us actually like each other much. We tolerate each other’s company because most attendees are

Neutral: No, but only because I “can’t even” with the F&F movies. I think i stopped watching at 4 fast 4 furious or whatever. I like action movies but they have to be worth a shit.

Great question! By most objective measures, vehicles are still improving. By some subjective measures, they are not.

Been poor. My first adult job (2011) paid $28,750 per year, and God bless my parents for not lending or giving me one red cent. Being poor sucks, that’s why it’s called “poor”. As in, the Virginia Cavaliers played poor defense in the last two innings of last night’s game. One must be intentional and diligent in one’s

That’s not considering social security income, and it was also not accounting for any increase in monthly investment, ever. And before someone comes at me with “but poor people can’t...” that’s why one has to have ambition and be deliberate in one’s efforts to improve one’s situation. Being poor sucks (speaking from

can’t do it. Just can’t do it. There are too many other cars that I imagine are more rewarding to drive and own, for less money. If it were $48,777 with a manual, we could maybe talk.

I don’t like blanket statements, so I’ll say nearly everyone has a chance to become a multi millionaire. If you can invest just $200 per month, without ever increasing your contribution, from age 20 to age 65, you’ll have over $1mm at age 65. That’s without ever increasing your contribution to adjust for inflation.

Most

Gen Xers who lost 45% of their wealth in TGR are up somewhere between 300% & 500% from the lows. But you can’t win if you don’t play, and the people who aren’t saving, aren’t playing. We owe nothing to the people who have the means to save but choose not to do so.

Idk... I just don’t know. Nice price, I guess because it’s a powerful, efficient car with leather seats and under 100k.
I just always compare sedans to Mercedes W211s because there are scores of them out there and they don’t cost much money and they run forever.
