So, you’re a well adjusted adult then.

Streamer and “youtuber” culture is just amazingly toxic and disgusting at times. I know there’s lots of great ones out there, but the bad ones are SO bad, and they often have huge, toxic followings. There’s just so much insecure manbaby (babybaby? these followers are usually kids) out there and it’s so easy through…

I would have given it a NP if it weren’t for the rust :(.

Counterpoint:

Again, it’s not really a battery issue. It’s a charging infrastructure issue. People would also have range anxiety with ICE vehicles if there wasn’t a charger within 100 miles or on every off ramp of the highway.

This is actually completely false for the vast majority of people. It’s the charging infrastructure that is a problem, not the batteries themselves. (unless that’s what you were implying, but you then called out infrastructure separately, which is its own problem)

Thank you for that palate cleanser.

well, yes and no, as far as coverage goes. Sure, Tesla has got coverage mostly ironed out. That’s just Tesla, though.

Infrastructure and lifestyle are holding them back, but that will come.

I should add that I did drive and buy (brand new, even) manuals until recently. The wife simply couldn’t cope with the manuals--and she did try!--, or I’d likely still have one (it was an option in my current car).

Oh that’s easy—the extra gear is the low gear and it’s just for launch. Literally only there for the 0-60 time dick measuring (aka to beat Tesla).

Honestly I’m not sad at all about this.  It’s actually encouraging to me that so many EVs are being sold.

I almost voted NP, but then I saw the rebel flag and bro truck in the background.  Hard no on buying anything from this seller at all.

I. . . I owned a ‘91 Chevy Corsica. I really liked that car. . .

This is about how I felt when I bought my ‘94 LeSabre. Bit of a bigger car, but similar circumstances. Not exciting at all, but that 3800 V6 was smooth--not fast--and the car was comfortable.  Okay-ish radio, dual climate zones, but no leather.  Mid-specced.

A Camry of that generation is a car. It does car things well.

Yeah, it’s pretty much the first time I’ve had a daily driver and said to myself “that’s enough power”. Sure, I wouldn’t mind a different drive layout (front engine rwd or maybe awd), but the power is certainly sufficient.

Eh, he didn’t “give it all away”. He sold the car for $500k, but the record is still his (I think? I don’t know if it’s been broken since).

I swear no one really teaches “defensive driving” anymore. Or if they do, they don’t really focus on it.

Yeah, the interior materials in the Mazdas are good, but I don’t really like the layout, and they seem to sacrifice useable interior space. They just feel cramped compared to the competition.
