This.

With the top down, they can kneel on the parcel shelf.

*reads question*

The reason to pay the premium for the GXP is because only the GXP was available with a manual. I wouldn’t pay actual money for almost the right G8. I could mod a GT to match the power here, and nobody would cry foul over molesting a G8 GT.

I’ll take the over on the final price.

The Sheriff needs to choose his words more carefully. He just issued a challenge to all the ass clowns who don’t know that they are ass clowns. At no point did he say “Do not under any circumstances try to traverse Black Bear Pass.” He only said “you need the right vehicle.”  I assure you, the ass clowns all think…

I have never given it much thought. I don’t hate it. If I were designing my dream house from a blank sheet, it wouldn’t look anything like this, but this is wholly inoffensive to me, and I guess that’s your point. By doing everything, it is optimal for nothing, but I think that’s good for a house. Having multiple…

Agreed. Services can be subscription. Features cannot. Since this relies on connectivity and maintaining databases with real-time updates, this is a service.

But not all mods are worth spending your money on. A classic example is adding a massive wing to the back of a front-wheel drive economy car.

So the flipper got it from Grandma’s family and there was enough meat left on the bones to sell it for a fair price and turn a profit?  Fair play.

I appreciate the sentiment, but my days of wanting to maintain a fleet are behind me. “They can’t all be broken” is tempting fate. The more cars you have, the more things can go wrong. You will be playing Whack-a-mole on maintenance and repairs. 10 cars is too many. With 2 cars, you have a backup, but you also have a…

Z900RS Cafe - ~$10k

This is not the car to cater to your desires, but it is a great way to meet your needs. It’s a car. Being a wagon adds utility.

I haven’t taken many cabs, and have never taken an Uber of Lyft. As a consequence, there wasn’t really anything wrong with my “worst” cab ride. It was just long and expensive.

I haven’t had a car payment in at least 5 years. I purchased my current daily driver (2009 Saab 9-7x Aero) used in 2015 and had a 3 year loan for $10k. I don’t remember what my payment was. I think it was a bit over $300.

Tough sell. It’s paradoxically too rare to have much of a collector market, so we have to assess it on its merits as a camper. There are too many better options at that price to make this worthwhile to anyone but the hipsteriest hipster trying to be different for the sake of being different.

Just don’t look.  It’s got Paul Anka’s guarantee.

Even if FSD beta worked as promised, Tesla has a history of not honoring option packages for subsequent owners. Anything Elon can shut off at his discretion has zero value to me.

Unless the onset is sudden, we will have functional cars in any foreseeable future. Biofuels will scale up to meet the shortages of petroleum. Biodiesel is already easy enough to make. It’s just not cheap enough to compete with petroleum. Petroleum will get expensive enough to expand biodiesel manufacture long before…
