Mistakes:

You need to invest in a code scanner. You should go into the dealer with an idea of what’s wrong. Also, why on earth are you taking an 8 year old domestic car to the dealer?

In the end, it may have been cheaper to just get a new car.

Mistake here is you went to the DEALER for service, who charges a premium and waaaay more expensive.

This is not a normal recession. Previous recession logic does not apply. We have a shortage of goods driving inflation and the fed is using the playbook based on completely different historic circumstances.

You haven’t been looking at craigslist car prices recently if you expect to find a car that is even remotely safe to operate for 2k...

“ If you have a functioning car, the best advice is to take care of it and avoid the market for as long as possible. But that advice doesn’t work for everybody.”

Right, but none of those specs are what makes an SUV an SUV. 

No, Kia doesn’t. The K5 (Optima), K7 (Cadenza), and K9 (K900) were all sedans.

Wait, so what does that make the Kia K5?

Crossover is a term that exists and predates yours by a couple decades.

Didn’t you know? Everything is now an SUV Coupe.

It’s just yet another crossover-SUV, not a full SUV, and an ugly one at that.

Comparing it to a Mach-E? The Mach-E has the ground clearance of a Model 3. It’s just another crossover too, albeit one that should’ve never been given a horse logo. 

What really killed the Dart was the fact that Chrysler couldn’t sell it at prices that made it profitable. As gas prices sank back down and the small car market began to shrink again, remaining buyers gravitated toward the options with the best reputations: the Japanese cars on reliability, and the Korean cars on…

Notice it’s currently October and it’s still using the 2022 model year. It’ll be dead at the end of 2023.

I am vetoing the Lotus Espirit. That wing doesn’t even follow the contours of the car. The car is squarish and angular and the wing looks all rounded everywhere. Looks like it was ripped off of a completely different car.

Guess my Viper ACR wing suggestion was too America for this lmao

No love for the 2nd Gen Eagle Talon Tsi

No 959 love? Functional and aesthetically integrated...
