Yeah I stopped even doing deals at my house. Their house? Sure as long as its in the front yard, not hidden out back. When they want to see something of mine I always direct them to a gas station somewhere. CL has some cool shit but the people can be shady af

Yeah but they need to grow Volvo even here. PLus Elio will be on the lower end of the price spectrum. Volvo has really moved into entry level luxury and pure luxury even more so in the modern era

Yeah somehow I think Geico would be pretty mad if I was driving around an uninsured, mid 80s BMW with bald tires that was last registered in the 90s and hasn’t been renewed since.

While craigslist shopping for a new project a couple years back someone let me drive their car without them in it. It was wierd. I guess they felt safe bc I left my daily at their house, but still I did not know the intricacies of that car.

Geely man! Small, weird, cheap car like thing made by a Chinese manufacturer? It could work! Plus most of the hard work is already done for them!

Usually thats how it happens. Unfortunately alot of people never really learn and just make the same error again.

Reverse: Hell yes. I look at the whole thing. I want to see exactly what I am financing line by line. I want an explanation for everything.

If Geely is looking to make a big push into the US, maybe this is it? Just think about it, it would a good acquisition for them. They could sell anew cheap car here and really have the brand from the start. Heck they could even develop it into have both the three wheel vehicle and a more traditional 4 wheel car as…

Thats considering you only do the 600 miles once a month and nothing else. If that is the case, yes the train is cheaper. Its cheaper multiple times over. Since that is not the case for most though, the car quickly turns into a better deal. Especially considering most Americans need it for work. Public transit that…

Actually if you look further down in the comments I break down a lot of the additional costs of owning a car. Add in that for most people in the US its a work necessity and you have a real financial reason to just purchase a vehicle.

Oh shit. Do you have any recommendations on which ones work better and which one you used in this story so I don’t get it.

Yeah I feel you there. I’m looking into a doggy car seatbelt more to keep my pup in one area because she moves around too much in the car as is.

Meanwhile my dog gets sick and vomits just from a nice straight and level highway and good auto trans.

I guess the roadkill guys will need to find another crowd to source Challengers for their drag races

A star for this

While yes I agree with you on the level of c02 released, you need to account that for alot of people on the lower and even mid range of earning spectrum in America they cannot account for this. They need to get to work, they need to earn money, they need to cut costs in every way possible. So yes maybe they take a…

Patrick I know your pain. I sold my 325 eta a couple years ago. Still miss it. It wasn’t the best in power, but to me it was the best in fun. Over 3 years later and I still miss it. I didn’t care that it couldn’t leap past a Mustang or out pace a Miata, I cared that it was fun and that I drove it to have fun.

Once you’ve already sunk the cost of ownership and insurance (fixed) the variable cost of the additional 600 miles should not be as high as 50 cents. Back of the napkin math (for my car. 14 Focus)

It exists, just the cost is higher than taking your car, and you still need a car once you arrive. The train is 51 each way for the cheapest tickets most of the time, so 102 round trip. Even if your car just does 20 highway the same 600 mile round trip is only 75ish dollars. (estimating gas at $2.50). The problem is…

3rd. Hey Geely! Take some of those profits and get Lotus* selling on US shores...
