As a C5 Corvette owner, can confirm that some interior plastic doesn’t matter one bit for your enjoyment of a sports car.

Our initial launch editions are highly contented with features

Simple. Send them a bill for fees and penalties that’s worth more than the yacht. Then tack on additional penalties and fees. Then impound the ship for unpaid fees and charges.

Irrational Nice Price.

Las Vegas and F1. The perfect coming together of greed and excess. 

Drove a brand new base Mustang in Hawaii recently and I was honestly shocked at how good it was. Interior, ride, acceleration, steering feel and handling, fuel economy. It’s a Good Car. Too bad about its reputation, or rather its drivers’.

Not stirring the pot, just asking.
To me, they always looked like a pickup that was a bad pickup. They also looked like a Jeep that was a worse Jeep. The level of compromise there seemed to drag down both ends of utility to something that wasn’t great at anything.
Am I wrong?

Also, (for everyone, not just Caddywompis),

That “upgrade” remark hits hard. I’ve been “upgraded” to some very well optioned Tacomas and Rubicons and now I would rather end up in a Spark. If I needed to get to an off-road project site, then those upgrades would be great, but the vast majority of my rentals are highway driving and just about any truck/Jeep is

Out here in coastal SoCal, where the parents are wealthy AND idiotic, there are now “gangs” of dumbass over privileged kids tearing around on $5K E-bikes while completely ignoring traffic laws. I give it 2 years tops before the Gov starts (correctly) treating them like motor vehicles with

I hate the Wrangler simply for the fact that in my neighborhood it’s become a status symbol for people who are trying desperately to fit in. No exaggeration, there’s roughly 10 Wranglers parked within a 200 yard radius of my house and virtually none of these people use it for off-roading. One Wrangler owner has a

It’s a 4-seat convertible — seems like a good option if you got kids until you read the latest crash test results for rear seat passengers!

It really does, pretty much the exact kind of place to have for charging stops, stop, wander, micturate, ingest, all while your car chugs down electrons on a fast charger, get enough range for another two hours or so on the freeway. Would do wonders for road trip anxiety in more rural areas.

The irony is that a buc-ees makes an even better argument as an EV charging station

I was on a work trip and I was slated to get an Aveo or similar. But I asked for something a bit larger as I flew with my mountain bike and needed the room to haul it around for 3 weeks, when work is done for the day and it’s time to ride. I got a free upgrade to a Prius, and I had a blast with that car. I drove it

This smells strongly like a mechanic’s lien vehicle - the seller was originally contracted to restore the car, but then the original owner lost interest, ran out of money or died - and the shop is trying to recoup the money they have outlaid.

Oh Hell yes. This is the antidote to a world littered with CRVs and Outbacks and whatever all those GM SUVs are called now. This is Mad Max for the price of a trip with the fam to Disney 

I don’t care about the specs. I don’t care about any details. At $5,500 this is fuck around money and I’m excited to find out, even if it kills me.

This car is pure sex. You’re out of your fucking mind.

Awesome write up, great story! Thanks!!
