I’ve got a company car that’s well past the turn in point. Since new cars aren’t available, I’m just racking up the miles.

I’m guessing I’ll be able to buy it cheap in a while.

I often fill up at the Costco. It’s not much of a savings but every bit helps.

Got lucky with a new 2022 KIA Telluride SX. No “market adjustment” .....just MSRP which is bad enough. It’s a spectacular vehicle. Dealer that I purchased it from now adds $5000 as a “market adjustment” due to their demand. Takes months to get after a reservation. We got extremely lucky......

We got lucky, in early feb we bought. 2018 GMC Terrain with 11k miles. Bigger engine, sunroof, leather, AWD every option out the door with tax for 21k. Took in for oil change etc 6 months later and they offered me 29k,
Great deal but it would cost me 32 for the same car.

Yeah, my plan was to not buy anything for at least 2 more years, then a 17 y/o scatterbrain pulled out in front of my wife and both vehicles were totaled.

Well, thank God no one was severely injured, but, even with a better than expected settlement from State Farm, I’m gonna have to come up with at least $7000 more to get an equivalent replacement. That one really hurts...

I wind up using Shell a lot for ethanol free since I have some older stuff and a generator.

Instead of punishing/confronting the Chicoms for their pandemic crimes, our rat federal government and too many rat state governments punish Americans instead.

Huh?

And I’m regularly told at FR that an Article V Convention of the States is too dangerous.

Clearly. The bill curve is rear loaded. We are indeed in trouble.
