they apparently edited the ad, then, because now even though the url says Dodge Intrepid, the ad content is a stupid Taurus.

Definitely Wells Fargo.

and cant’ deal with handlebars either? otherwise, the can am trike (spider? spyker? whatever they call it now) would make more sense.  for what they want for a slingshot, i can’t imagine it making more sense than an mx-5, unless you just have to have that ANGRY face of the slingshot.

have a mid 90's accord, and haven’t seen any issues getting parts either. 245k and counting, original engine and transmission, afaik. (it’s been passed around the in-laws’ side of the family.)

given the number of dealers still tacking “added dealer markup” on every model on the lot (many to the tune of $10k-$12k, i don’t buy that it’s strictly the manufacturers that “have grown fat and complacent on low-production profits”...they can’t be THAT frustrated “sitting on inventory” if they think they can still

exactly what i was envisioning before i even got to the comments.

“Don’t call it a comeback, I’ve been here for years”

Here’s a 2012 convertible GranTurismo in the mid-high 30's...the better to listen to the exhaust.

not surprised. i bought my truck from a lithia dealer in fresno too. didn’t tell them i’d already run numbers with my bank in the morning before heading back to do the deal, and had them try to throw interest rates almost 5% above my bank, while listing that bank as one of them they’d checked.

i suspect the seller of the bug got called out on it, but that isn’t a super beetle, it’s a standard, and as it stands now, the ad doesn’t mention “super”.

watch out for the effects of living near saltwater.

i don’t know about anywhere else, but i’d estimate the number of cars on the road here (california) with at least one taillight/brake light out is roughly equal to the number with all three working.  some have 1/3, some have none.

speaking from having spent a holiday (long)  weekend with a 4 door wrangler rental...other than a random whistle from somewhere around the windshield, and the occasional death wobble, it rode quite a bit more comfortably than my compact pickup, which i’ve done road trips in both loaded and unloaded. (it does ride

been on and off truck shopping recently, linked over to one of my semi local dealers to see what their “great deals” were...uh yeahhh, $10k “added dealer markup” on every one i looked at.

i don’t get the mileage either, old or new, especially based on a couple comparables we’ve had for rentals.

yeah, i hadn’t for some years, the last warranty service on a starter, the shuttle left me sitting there and took off to lunch (the one time i made the mistake of depending on their shuttle)...but the airbag recalls, and then the 2nd round of recalls had me back. first the dealer i bought it from taking an appointment

I live in an area where dealers for most brands are abundant. So I can easily write off the dealer that is marking up everything and currently has a $70k Toyota Sienna on their lot. I’m also stubborn enough to drive out of my way to avoid those places anyway.

let’s be honest, Jalopnik has changed a bit in the days since Doug moved on...kind of like one of the many auto/moto forums after Vertical Scope took over.

if anyone wants that Sobro table, good luck with Wayfair.

some places specifically single out motorcycles for that ability, because they know their detection of motorcycles sucks.
