Do they still physcially bolt the medallion to the hood? How does that get fixed when the cars gets retired to private life? Put a decal over the hole?

It looks like my cat when it gets an eye infection.

You buy the car that fits your needs. For kids, a crossover can work great. Many are smaller than a minivan, and in most cases have better quality and features than a minivan. Unless you get the top trim level on a minivan, all of the ones I have driven in fall apart after a few years. Once the kids are gone, get back…

So what is the absolute best card for renting a car?

Totally agree. If it’s an uncontested ball, it’s yours and anyone who gives you stinkeye is an entitled shit. When I was a kid, if an adult offered me a ball that they caught cleanly I would have declined. Why would I want a ball that someone else caught? What’s the point in that? Seriously, I’d like to know.

My dad bought (and still drives around) a 1999 GMT400 1-ton pickup for about $14k new. Best value for a work truck you could find anywhere.

And yet there’s a bud light ad right below this article on my phone. Huh.

I bet Senior Chief Walker has that same look on his face at the moment.

The Price is wrong, bitch!

It’s January now, and you can still pay $5/week.

When I registered my Tempest a few years ago, it was $225 for the initial registration and $75 for each additional registration. It has gone up since, but it’s still a heck of a deal if you hold onto the car long term.

My dad just registered his 1995 pickup truck. I’ve seen several 90s cars with collectors plates on…

You know, I thought our law was pretty normal until I started reading the rest of the comments. What’s the point of collector cars if you can’t drive them? I doubt most people put more than 500-1000 miles on a collector car, so a more lenient registration is warranted.

It should, but it’s basically for museum and parade cars. I see some Model Ts with it, but otherwise it’s a rare plate. Most people go with Collector plates.

I should also note you have to prove that you have a non-Collector/Hobbyist car as your DD in order to get these plates. So you can’t just own a Collector/Hobbyist car.

In Wisconsin we have “Collector”, “Hobbyist”, and “Antique” plates. Collector and Hobbyist are the same, except with Collector you have to keep your car stock. Hobbyist would be for hotrods, etc. Otherwise you can drive it all you want, except in January. It costs about 3x the normal registration ($200), but you NEVER…

USS Wisconsin with rail guns? Yes please.

While I agree that newer trucks are much more “posh” than their elders, if you spend a lot of time in them you start to appreciate those comforts. I grew up driving trucks that you could hose out. They had rubber floors and cheap bench seats. None had more than a basic radio and we never had a/c.

That’s.... Awesome.

This argument is getting tired. I DD a full size pickup because I have to haul a 7,000 lb trailer for work. I do use it for other things (the bed is full of firewood at the moment), but on the average day I just look like another “tool” to you. The fact is, these trucks are too expensive for me to buy a second car to…

I’d say that’s easily a $250 tree. I’m jealous!
