I believe the Prime is eligible for a $7500 tax credit, while others are not.

Here’s the problem (simplified, of course; but also accurate, I believe).

This is incredible writing, Shane. But darn you for ruining calamari!

so much this. I fear the Bronco is going to be the same way.

My thoughts exactly. The swapper’s thinking baffles me.

This car BEGS the question, why would you not just tune the stock engine and slap on a bigger turbo? The stock 2.0T could achieve 250hp much more cheaply and reliably.

You’re really not going to like BMW’s Hellrot.

My wife settled on the Audi Q7. Engine choices were gas 3.0 supercharged V6 (which gets horrible mileage and uses premium) or dieseel 3.0 turbo V6. Went with the diesel. Enjoying it and its consistent 26-29 mpg on long road trips at 75mph.

After a couple months of use, I’ve been happy with my Curt 4-bike hitch mount rack. I don’t use it all the time but it works great when I do. It is a 2" hitch mount.

My dad had one as a company car at one point. He took it to the dealer 3 times convinced that there was a problem with the engine and/or brakes, because it didn’t seem to respond to the brake or gas pedal. The dealer’s response? “that’s just how it drives.” Bear in mind that my dad drove real easy and the car still…

I recently bought a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Despite it having the Trailhawk package, which is one of the medium-high trim levels, it came with halogen lamps. The low beams provided unconscionably dangerous levels of dimness. When driving a country road in the rain with oncoming traffic, I literally had to slow to…

This is hilarious to me. I have a neighbor who has twice said explicitly that a man is more manly if he has a big truck. This guy, who owns a lifted Tundra, is a construction worker and he ends up driving long distances as a commute. Well, his lifted Tundra gets 8 mpg (he told me) so he doesn’t drive it to work. He…

Funny enough, in 2009 I had a neighbor in my condo building who traded in his 2-year-old Mercury with 14,000 miles for a new model. He was 90 years old and “just wanted to help the economy,” in his own words. This is a guy who worked as an engineer in a factory that was converted to building weapons of war during…

The exterior design is not bad!

This is so true. Vehicles, real estate, equities, shoot man, even spouses. Buy and hold.

Right! Near-zero interest rates AND major tax cuts. The main monetary dial is turned up to 100. The main fiscal dial is turned up to 100.

Now hear me out, I have a conjecture that this is actually slightly practical. It makes it just incrementally easier to find the inflation nozzle.

The Camry illustrates this phenomenon perfectly. It has gaudy “sporty” looking features, but no semblance of sport in the way it drives. That’s precisely what the average buyer is looking for.

I had a similar experience a few years ago, looking to trade my Audi S4 for a new or almost-new Mazda6 (don’t ask). The pricing looked competitive but they didn’t offer much on trade. It was bad enough that I ended up selling the S4 to Carmax and buying a used Lexus ES350 (again, don’t ask).
