This is bullshit of the highest order.

Yep, I don’t do those either.

That’s easy.  None.  Zero.  Zip.  And if a subscription is necessary to operate base features of a vehicle, I will not be purchasing that vehicle.  If that means someday I’ll have to make my 1953 Willys CJ3B my daily driver, so be it.

Makes we want to Mad Max up my ride:

Apparently Saul Goodman’s Suzuki Esteem wasn’t available?  (Talk about a show with excellent car-casting!)

My dad quit investing in his retirement plan after the market crash of 2007-2008 and started collecting rare antique pocket watches. He valued his collection (of more than 350 watches) at somewhere north of $100k.  He died a few years ago and we were hoping to recoup some money for mom.  The collection brought about…

I wish I could delete my duplicate comment.  Instead I just have to type in some drivel to replace it.  Thanks for listening to my speech.

Photo resolution FTW:

The 1969-71 Chrysler 300 did a great job with the hideaway headlights in my opinion, placing a clean black bezel around them so you didn’t see anything weird when they were open and carrying the grille ornamentation when they were closed.

They’re beaming at their inherent priviledge.

If all that was going on in the finance office was a friendly discussion of interest rates, I’d be game.  It’s the rest of the bullshit that occurs in there that makes me avoid it entirely.

I never let the dealer run my credit. They usually cite their ‘best’ offer without it, even though I make it clear I’m not financing through them. I much prefer to separate the purchase from the financing to avoid shenanigans, much to the disdain of the salesman.

I think everything about this is stupid. Individual opinions may vary. Also, I wear safety glasses whenever at a dirt track race, demo derby, whatever. Glad nobody got a piston through the face or a driveshaft through the skull.

I tell the dealership to get bent with their shitty financing offer, then return from my credit union an hour later with a cashier’s check for the full amount (whether borrowed or out of savings).

I like this. It might be best used for government civil engineering/infrastructure projects and DoD weapon systems.

I also see I flubbed my own calculation. Don’t hate me. I didn’t design your brakes. (2200/1.1)/2=1000

I feel like they should use this as a marketing opportunity to call them Lightning rods.

1st Gear: I had an old boss that taught me an important engineering management lesson at a young age. He’d ask you to estimate what it would take to complete a project, then he’d yell “Double it..... then add ten percent!!”. (2200 trucks - (2200 * .10))/2 = 1000. Hmm, I’m thinking he stumbled onto some kind of theory.…

Better reserve an Elio instead.
