The front seat definitely is suffering from the side bolsters on the seat pads having disintegrated. Rare to see a car of that vintage without the area above the power seat switch being cracked beyond repair. (I’d throw a cover over the back ones too, deep polishing them would turn those cracks into flaky messes!)

Since your comment is the only one worth truly discussing...

Amusing amount of people who commute up 83 to avoid MD taxes.

My cousin, who is law enforcment, sent me this link with the comment “WTF”. They can’t understand the departments that allow this shit (small town cop where the occasional drinking teen or idiot speeder are the hot crimes!)

I agree, but this is using Consumer Reports demographics for surveys so the sampling is not representative off general public.

This portion of your statement is exactly what MAGA Republicans say about Trump’s numerous investigations and lawsuits. And it describes why Jon Stewart gets to play both sides of the coin. (Meet The Press did 5 minutes in the beginning of their recent episode talking about the concerns of Biden’s age... and they’re…

Isn’t “both sides” the whole point of finding dark humor for this particular election cycle?

This particular configuration, 550h+, doesn’t have that option...

The job thing was my first takeaway but I also wonder who buys the sole car and doesn’t at least discuss it with their spouse? This couple, if they are real to being with, might need more than financial advice.

IIRC the X5 is their best seller which tends to be soccer moms and people who have others to take care of the nuisance issues. So they might not even reply to the surveys. (I’ll throw 7 series in this groups as well.)

There are some technical limitations with performing at the Super Bowl.

Tends to be older crowd who are not happy with the touch controls and multiple menus to get to simple things. (not an indictment of olds, my folks do just fine by asking a question, reading the damn manual or Googling the problem!)

At least one set of tire, possibly two if they drove like an ass. Same with the brake pads? (I just signed over my Polestar to my niece at 23K and I just did the service to not pass that cost on.) If it racked up the majority as highway miles, just normal fluids and rotating tires might have this equal to an ICE.

Exactly, Matt goes Lindt at 4 by calling it “fine” and dumps on the Dunkin ad?

VW is going to maximize THEIR profit by setting market prices so high that early adopters/ deep pocket buyers will snap them up as status symbols.

D.C. doesn’t screw with their speeding cameras. There’s one on 295 just before it merges with 95, where there is ALWAYS construction. Go 3 mph over the 40MPH posted, I promise you will have a ticket for $200 5 days later in your mailbox!

Tech that runs on outside vendors, like OEM NAV systems!
