I had $1000. I couldn’t get financing most places because my credit was so shite. I didn’t know how to fix anything on a car and needed one that I thought would run reliably. I was getting terrible car advice from a number of sources. CL wasn’t a thing yet, and the other cars I looked at $1000 had major problems. I…

THE CIIRRRRRCLE OF LIIIIIIIIFE

There’s no point in arguing with someone who fails to understand the basic point of the comment. Have a nice life.

I got a lot of bad advice as a teen, made some serious mistakes. I grew up, worked hard, and paid for them. That doesn’t mean it changes the fact that their business model relies around taking advantage of desperate people with limited means.

My credit score is 800 now, so I shop around. I’ll check it out the next time I’m in the market.

When I first started car ownership I was terrible with a wrench. When you work 70 hours a week you can’t afford the car to be on the side of the road for any reason. I couldn’t take a risk with a car that was older or needed love as I simply didn’t have the time, tools or talent to deal with it. I chose the Kia as a…

My second car was a 2000 Kia Sephia that I financed from DriveTime at 29%, 3 years. At the time it was the only car I could afford that I could find, because my credit score was 460. $7k and change loan amortized to $11k when all was said and done. Biweekly payments of something like $140. Keep in mind, I had an…

Sure is!

Only every critic of his, like, ever. But hey, ‘fake news.’

I totally believe. Can I come work for you guys now?

Bungie made a lot of sort of interesting games in the 90's before the big Halo thing. Marathon 2: Durandal I found extremely interesting. My friend had a Mac and there was nothing to do on his computer otherwise.

I’m still wigging out about the fact that I’m not Chinese, but that lady looks exactly like my mother.

Can confirm, am Asian. A lot of blatant sexism/racism goes on in those countries, in ways that are not always under scrutiny. I think division by visual features is wired into Homo Sapiens’ tribal mindset. And jokes, as hilarious as they are, are always at the expense of someone for something.

No thanks, ain’t got no time for that.

Overall I’m a fan of Car Throttle, but I find the narrator’s voice irritating during voice overs. When I’m listening to them while they’re in the car doing reviews, it’s fine, but the scripted stuff, his cadence just gets on my nerves after a while.

I better suck some dicks to make sure I’m not gay.

Happy to tickle your pickle for a few seconds.

The strength of the assignment of a word to a concept is always weaker than a community’s insistence on associating it.

It’s a hatch, too. This guy is the real MVP. I’d sell it for any of my kids in a heartbeat. My wife’s kids, maybe.

I guess they implemented your system in India. It somehow seems to work regardless of where on the street one drives.
