No dice, simply on the principle that the seller is a liar. Lie in the ad about the fuel economy being grand (it’s not, I’ve owned one) and there’s no telling how many other matters he is full of shit about.
Additionally, it’s a ragtop. Ragtops should have V8s.

Reminds me of the old dinner train that used to run by Hooper, NE. It met a similar fate.

Raph and others regularly trash the economic system that fosters innovation, growth, and development

It’s no surprise that the Great State of Nebraska is unique in its choice, as Nebraskans are independent thinkers and unique unto themselves. 

Jalopnik writers like little Raph would rather not see it happen.

1990's and 2000's conversion vans were the absolute lap of luxury.
Something a little more enthusiast oriented: I hitched a ride out to Denver with my folks once and rode the entire way in the back of dad’s S600. That was pretty damn comfortable, perhaps even more so than a conversion van.

What you just described, “... then they end up in the shop for months”
“They either feel the RVs are unreliable”
That was my point. Owners of these things sell them because they’re fucking broken.

I didn’t say that people are choosing to move. I said that people are more mobile. It is easier now to pick up your life and move than it has been since humans were nomads. If one so chooses, one can sell all of their possessions in just about no time at all, and have a new job in a new city by way of online…

1) there are no conservative democrats. At best, there are moderate democrats
2) I love reading stuff like this. The best part about the left is that they stick together until something reaches critical mass and they eat their own.

That could not be further from the truth. The labor market is very tight, and people are more mobile than ever, with more access to information than ever. Employees are more capable of finding a new job with a better package than ever in the history of labor. Labor unions have never been less important, and their…

I feel like, of all the possible fixes, bringing in the government is the toward the bottom of the desirable outcomes list.

Jalopnik and every outlet reporting news: The UAW is a corrupt mess

Jalopnik: But the UAW should organize every automotive factory

That may not be such a good strategy. People generally don’t get rid of them because they hate them. People get rid of them because they’re broken.

Chevrolet Impala. For practical transportation, they’re great vehicles. They are spacious, economical, reasonably powerful, unstoppable in snow, and reasonably luxurious if you check the right option boxes. I’ve enjoyed many Impala as rentals, but I’ve never wanted to keep one past turning it back in.

That would be right on the money, if it had literally half the mileage. Crack pipe.

Your point would make sense if there were an automaker selling a better pickup outside of this market but not importing it because of the chicken tax.
Instead, Toyota and Nissan have tiny slivers of market share because they don’t spend the money on R&D to be serious player in the most competitive market segment in the…

Because the 500 didn’t sell for shit. They switched the name back to the Taurus and sales went up sharply. Thus, the rest of the world agrees with me that names have meaning.

Father of two here. Did a ton of research to get a vehicle that could handle car seats behind my 6'3" ass. I can tell you, having looked at the specs, that the Maverick will absolutely not baby, unless the parents are short and the car seat goes in the middle.

P.S. We ended up with an Odyssey, which actually has…

I disagree because names matter and words have meaning. Huracan =/= Gallardo.

Every generation of pickup from each of the Big 3 is better than the last by leaps and bounds. Pickup trucks are the most competitive and one of the few classes of vehicle where development and engineering are highly customer driven and have multiple billions of dollars behind them. The gap between generations widens…
