I love this. But I’d rather keep $15k in my pocket. I’d go $10k. 

“Faze”, not “phase”.

Tried ‘em, didn’t like ‘em, now I know why. I’ll take this and give one another shot. 

I saw one in effing WILKES-BARRE PENNSYLVANIA. I lose.

Naw. Not interesting. Just an old car. Too old to daily drive, too boring to take to shows and sit around answering questions about. What would you say? “Yeah, it was converted from FI to carburetor, cost 10 horsepower….” as people walk away nodding.

Volvos are wonderful cars that suck. I owned 2 of them, and I worked at a Volvo dealership for 10 years. I still miss my S90 T6 Inscription, but I’m also pretty clear eyed about how often it was in the shop for warranty work. It was pretty infuriating. And being on the inside, I know it wasn’t just my particular car,

An unsafe vehicle that needs everything, for $5900? Why even bother to ask. 

It’s not depreciating any more. NP.

Maybe start by visiting the Titanic.

I don’t have many occasions to rent a car, but when I do, I choose against Hertz. 

The upholstery and coach roof says it’s a Brougham.

Not a car but a motorcycle, ‘71 BSA 650. Hit the brakes and the engine would die. This happened on a night ride, about 50 miles from home. Also, this was in the late ‘70s… no internet, no community of BSA owners, and, importantly, no BSA dealers or mechanics due to both BSA and Triumph being effectively dead in the US

Nope. Way too far down the wrong path, with way too much left undone (and to undo).

Back in the ‘70s (yeah, I’m old) my brother and I walked the picket lines while our father in management was locked inside keeping the plant running.

One of my riding buddies had an Atlas. That was a beautiful bike!

I had the zener diode bracket break, and the diode fall off, due to metal fatigue. 

Lol, you can actually see it shaking and vibrating. I had a BSA 650. No to old Brit bikes.

At 20 years old, it is going to be at whatever the state’s maximum usery rate is (21% here). The only good thing is that it is a pretty nice car that will probably last the term of the loan. A lot of them aren’t, and don’t.

I’ve always liked these, just not at $9000 for 20 years old.

But you got caught?
