Have you visited The Car Thread? It's a total wankfest over $200K+ Porsches and the like that are the pinnacle of impractical transportation.Not to hate on any one, but spending 50-100K on a vehicle that all you use it for is transportation is nucking futs.

Yea, into a guard rail on a rainy day or flipped in a ditch.
no articulation, no snow pile shenanigans possible. Smallish electric AWD CUV. 3 rows of seats but low cargo area with them, and access impeded by regular doors.

if you would not buy it without the tax credit then it is not worth buying....
id keep the landcruiser if its paid off.
i bet the landcruiser will last longer than the ev....
For every 40 year old on their 2nd car, there's a 27 year old who just rolled over their past 3 car loans into an 84 mo 22% APR loan on a base model Camaro or Mustang with yellow air dam tape that will inevitably get rammed into a pedestrian/light pole/random car while leaving a Cars and Coffee.
Yeah, but I really don’t need 3 cars, more like 1.2. Land Cruiser is paid off, and I’d sell it both for the liquid cash (see: home renovation extravaganza) and because otherwise I’d have to invent cases where I’d use it other than for deep snow day ski days.
I mean, it's a master's level program. And I took a longer route that let me pick up adtl accreditations as I went. But my test is July 14th.
She won't. I'll step in front of it and gamble how much we might get back, even if I have to front $6-7k. Her race is June 24th and she needs at least the weekend prior to drive it. The kart will take about 3 weeks to get and build, so I effectively have until the end of next week before I just say fuck it and hope I don't get clobbered on the backend.
It's still probably only the 8th coolest EV in the 'hood.
German generic blob car.
I feel attacked. I've actually lost track of how many old, high-mileage vehicles I own.

so you do own more cars than houses?Yeah. I know. I've got like 9 currently.
Man... I sure hope so.
reading comprehension yoMan... I sure hope so.
white socks and sandals, yes
yes, this is essentially correct
close. pretty sure I sold and bought back the Land Cruiser while I had the Tesla. (Sold it to and bought it back from my neighbor, if you all will recall.)Yes but same poop different pile.
Toshi already sold the Land Cruiser and purchased a Tesla.
Then sold the Tesla and purchased the Land Cruiser back.
i think I have the timeline correct.
This is the second one he's helped me build. It's mostly just fun to stand around and look at bikes while drinking beer, and he's quite handy with cable snips.
On top of that, I'll be blowing off a miserable eastern MA trail ride to go ride in a circle on said TT bike....
tell him i said hi.
We’ll see if it makes it out of the wildfire they are headed to
seems like demand > supply.Holy shit, I'd pack my bags and keep driving if I had to find the end of this line
time to charge a little extra.

there's a weds group ride he invited me to...they are headed to a place called breakheart reservation:
Dry conditions and wind fuel brush fire at Breakheart Reservation in Saugus
WBZ TV's Katrina Kincade reports.

Could be nothing at this point, but I feel like when there's a million horrible places to ride, why not choose a different one?
Going for a hike to see if my back can handle it. And if it can’t then I might just park myself in my camp chair out in the woods for a bit. Haven’t been out there in three weeks, damnit.
Especially since Breakheart isn't even that fun. Unless you poach, a lot of the fun trails in that network are foot traffic only. Kinda like the Fells.mfw

My FIL and MIL arrive in an hour or so. I'm cooking.
So. Diabetic diet. Not too much butter/oil/any other tasy cooking liquid. Not too spicy! LIke, one clove of garlic is HOT, so HOT! No this that and the other thing...(there is a whole list here...)
I shoulda just ordered pizza.

Garlic is hot? Wtf? How do you keep hope alive with such tyranny afoot?
I died. Actually my shifter died. Halfway through the time trial. So that was neat. Instead of perfect cadence and ideal power the entire time, I was standing out of the saddle. Derp
My company is having supply chain issues after an attempted increase in production rates. The problems are partly due to no one telling our suppliers that we were going to increase rates.
