Good. Calling the police on a person is exactly like pointing a loaded gun at that person.

I bought a used car recently and the dealership told me that the internet pretty much forces them to advertise the lowest price they’ll take, otherwise, they don’t even get calls. That’s why they rarely negotiate prices anymore.

Honest question. How much time did it take to go to four different dealerships and haggle that long? How much did you save? I’d rather spend the extra grand or two instead of burying hours of my time into negotiations 

The key part of your sentence is “....in 2009" a lot has changed in the used car space since then when it comes to market-based pricing.

It seems, in general, van’s like the Sienna/Odyssey/(surprisingly)Ford Transit Connect are much harder to negotiate down.  If at all.

Alright, time for some dissection of the ad.

100% agreed.

How about we just nominate every Honda of the 80s and 90s. They’re so inoffensively, conservatively, attractive. Most of the time.

Third and fourth gen Accord were really clean and simple designs that just worked. Still have a soft spot for the 3rd gen hatch.

The fourth generation Honda Accord has aged incredibly well. Honda was getting things right in the early ‘90s. Clean lines, excellent proportions, and an honest design that said quality without looking like it tried too hard.

You know the TL has to be a Blue Type-S

5th gen prelude:

I’m pretty sure Evos are kinds shit on gas and upkeep can’t be cheap, let alone finding an un-abused one for a decent price.

You seem nice.

Right, Jason... effin’ right! Sure I support you... no pushing, of course!

I would just add that even know your engine and coolant temps look good, your transmission my very well still be ice cold. I monitor all my temps and and my transmission typically takes twice as long to warm up.

If only these kids would have given up on higher education, and a potential lucrative professional sports career, in order to fight in the (super meaningful and definitely in the U.S.’s interest, and absolutely not a problem of our fathers causing) middle east wars... THEN they would be respectable.

Because it is a lot easier to hide behind THE TROOPS than it is to have a discussion on an uncomfortable subject.

I’m not a big NFL fan or anything, but IMHO, anyone who is old enough to have dodged the draft and can still be competitive at professional sports deserves at least some kind of respect.

“Take your blessings where you can get them.” Well said! There are plenty of unavoidable miseries in life; save energy for dealing with the serious stuff.
