    What vehicle do you drive?

    They messed up the GT350 engine pretty bad for the first several years. Every manufacturer has misses. That's what warranties are for.

    I want one too. But, I just saw the price on the Ford website: $49,000 (starting) for the model I think I'd pick. Holy shit man. Big engine can only be had with the automatic transmission. Well....never mind then.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Agreed. I'm very interested in a 4 door, manual, TTV6 Bronco. Hope it has a decent interior (like the F150s) and drives well. Have a feeling dealers will have ridiculous markups for a year though.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I'm trying to decide between a few fun cars for weekend/track use and I'm leaning towards the less powerful, slower one that also costs 10% more, because I've told myself I don't need as much as I used to. WTH? I'm also rustled because this probably falls into the "you know you're getting old...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Whenever we use ours, here is the post-cook routine: - let cool - put in sink and rinse then wipe down with non-metal tool (just a sponge) - wipe dry - put on stove top over low heat until all water evaporates - get 1/2 teaspoon (or approx.) of olive oil and put into warm cast iron, use paper...

    Damn, that's giving property away. It's $500-$1mm per acre here without a house on it. Add in 3,200 sq ft and you're talking $1mm-$3mm. That's pretty tempting if the surrounding area is nice.

    Fuck him. We haven't bought a car for anything more than invoice in years. The ONLY manufacturer I've run into that will not go that low on certain models is Porsche. Friends and colleagues have gotten Ferraris, Bentleys, Lambos for invoice or less plenty of times (we aren't at that level...

    He actually told you MSRP was breaking even? Mother fucker, 2% UNDER INVOICE is still MORE than breaking even because of hold-backs and OEM payments. Tell him he's raping you verbally and monetarily and you'll post all over the interwebs if he doesn't sell you the vehicle for 12% off.

    Unfortunately, the chunky controls on the RR/LR trucks are easier to use. Other options won't be as luxurious and I'd personally steer clear of Nissan/Infiniti vehicles. Volvo looks great, is unique and isn't overly expensive. But, it's different and older people don't always like different...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    If I'm going to play this game, I want it to look as good as it does in these promo pieces. But, I'm pretty sure that's going to require a whole lot of new hardware, lol. PC parts or guns....hmmm.

    Offer invoice, but no more. At invoice they still have "hold back" and they get sales credits, so there is profit for them. Invoice first, then the rebate on top (which is not from the dealer's pocket either) and you've got a deal. Keep in mind though, taxes between states are all different. If...

    I got an M4 new, out of state. There was more supply than demand at the time and it was in a fun color (IE, not white or gray which is all the sheep want). Negotiated 11% off list, paid $450 to have them drive it from central CA to TX, paid the tax at the DMV and I was done. Car was fine...

    Pride in one's property is healthy. Keeps us separate from the animals tearing cities apart and trying to erase our history.

    No. Only you would lower the cost by reducing your coverage based on the depreciated value of the car over time.

    And don't forget the double standard of fines and punishment: you'll get in trouble for having a family or social gathering on your own property but you're 100% OK if you go protest, loot, and riot in groups of hundreds.

    A lot is regulated by European emissions and taxes. Smaller engines with forced induction saves the consumer (and the manufacturer) considerable cost due to regulations. So, rather than make one version for the EU and one for the US, they make a single version to save costs in development and...
