If you can put this off... do so. Used cars $$ are LOCO presently.

That reminds me, I have to sell my Fit at some point. Been putting that off.
Fit is on our list. We like the smaller Honda's. Probably out of the budget but keep me in mind.

Oh yeah! We were actually thinking of selling the husband's pickup letting him drive whatever we get for her and then ordering a new truck but the $$$ is ridiculous right now!
we were lucky my mom had to give up her license last spring and we snagged her civic for our kiddo who will be using it soon.
Indeed. We've been looking for a reasonably priced Civic, Fit, CRV and it isn't happening right now.
You know... selling the truck is a decent idea if you can wait on the replacement truck until things... uhhh... "normalize"?
It's a great car. Fun to drive, good economy, plenty of space inside, great visibility. Would be the perfect car for a teen.
I bought mine (2008, 125K miles, 5-speed) a couple of years ago for $3,500. Imagine I'll probably end up getting what I paid these days.
the problem is that they don't understand anything beyond the end of their own noses
and they're so blinded by their worry over their rights that they're ignoring their responsibilities.
I’d ask for more, Tim. Start at $6k.
Also, I must note that I also had a 2008 Fit. It was a little shitbox, but admittedly efficient and frugal. Who makes a car without cruise control? Apparently 2007 Honda if one didn’t spring for the Sport higher trim.
My 2007 Toyota Matrix is even more basic. It doesn't even have ABS.
How you liking your ohlins?
Absolutely love them (TTX coil/RXF36 air on the Capra). I've been blown away by just about every aspect of them, though there was only 2 DH days last year on them. I intend to increase that this year however possible.
Wanted to try the TTX air on the new bike and stick with what works on the front in the 130mm flavor. Admittedly probably an overkill chassis for an XC/trail bike, but I'll gladly take any weight penalties in favor of feel and tunability. Especially at my size.
Currently in the pile of "shit to get rid of and never need again*"
*Hey Google - set reminder to schedule vasectomy.
My next bike is most likely gonna be a gg pistola (130mm) and my suspension short list right now is ohlins and ext (they have an air shock coming out this year)
7:06pm and just leaving work. 11 hour day.
Blood will be shed if I ever find the person that caused the network loop at this other building today.
did you try turning it off, then turning it back on again?
Pretty much... I was helping out from across the city.did you try turning it off, then turning it back on again?
The loop stopped as soon as my manager arrived and started walking around.
Highly SUS

An intrepid IT guy super glued a bunch of cables into routers in our factory after such an incident.
It's more fun to get a call when the automation is down to find someone pulled a profinet cable and plugged it into their computer while getting berated by an operations manager because the shit is always broken.
Rode in 1-2" of sleet with the consistency of coarse ground salt. Was OK-ish apart from sections with deep slush underneath.
You are crazy. It was real nasty out there tonight. Outside of being therapeutic I don't know how that could even be fun.
We must be sharing a brain cause now I need a large Umnumzaan in my life.
It’s a really pretty frame.
Kayak and gear loaded on and in the camper. Getting the last of my fishing gear sorted now. Heading out to a lake tomorrow morning for a day of fly fishing. Taking the camper so I don't have to share a shitter with the mouth breathers and I will have hot food and cold beer with me
