I didn't mean they literally make no money but a $5k markup is way more than they're going to make off a sale at MSRP. In this market everyone is thanking their lucky star that they can get something at MSRP and every dealer knows they can make a killing right now. That's more what I was trying...

> who strides among us mere mortals like a god. The blazing light of his perfection dazzles us all. Don't look at it -- it will just make you regret your own pitiful life. This is always my favorite type of thing 😂

That is definitely possible.

Looking good, I do have to say though....

While I tend to agree that the dealer should be guiding the customer through this I don't know anything about the dealer and their situation. There could be a perfectly reasonable explanation for why you haven't been hand-held as much as you'd like. That said, if I'm your dealer I'm not going...

Depends on the car, if memory serves the Porsche I drove stayed in whatever mode you tell it to. Track mode tends to have the engine run a lot more aggressively with worse mpg and emissions, lower the suspension and/or stiffen it, open up the exhaust, and beyond that will depend on the car...

Welcome to the wait friend, FYI "full size spare" is apparently not entirely full size. You may want to search around for that. Also if you paid extra for keyless entry I believe that is all standard on the Lariat. EDIT: Also I have to mention if you somehow ordered a Hybrid you should know...

Some things to think about: XLT Fx4 (needs AWD) is $29,270 with 4k towing to close the gap with the SC There is no comparable Santa Cruz so you can either get the better performing SEL Premium, or undershoot the Mav with the SEL + AWD + tow hitch and get close to the price with $30,365...

I can't speak for the auto industry specifically but I work for a large marketing firm and these people don't even look at it like it is pay to play. Basically they look at it as a marketing expense, just like any other advertisement campaign. You pay money they find awards to give, with larger...

oh yes but even "track mode" in production cars that kill the mileage and turn off several safety features.

"I just want the process to be more efficient" > gets mad at the more efficient process Also I love getting upset at market forces. Hey guess what, there's good reasons used and new vehicles are going for insane prices. When used vehicles finally come down in price (and they will) then you...

My brother's old Dodge Ram had a teflon drop in, even standing in the back was slippery.

In my experience drop ins let stuff slide a lot and while they can be easily replaced, you have to replace it. They also promote rust by letting water stay places. If you have sand or salt near you then don't even think about it. spray in costs a similar amount but it's far superior in every...

I thought about that, but companies are allowed to do "insane mode" and stuff that kills range

Oh that's good, I was wondering if there's some really important reason not to use the OBD port like that or something. I haven't really shopped around so who knows maybe I'll hate the OBD ones or something. Mostly I just want one to avoid those nightmare scenarios so if it records...

Unbeknownst to me but should have been expected is just how much people hate that guy lol! I find it to range from meh to pretty good, either way I've learned a lot and appreciated it, I sometimes forget that the internet is either love something or burn it with fire.

Wanted to ask, why not go with an OBD style cam? Not complaining I'm just curious because that seems like the path of least resistance. sorry double post, didn't think you'd notice it if I just edited in.

Man the future is great, I remember perusing forums in the 90s where you had to download the pictures without knowing what it was first and the quality was impossibly terrible. Edit: Saw your video afterwards, classic example of a wreck that could be a coin toss for whatever officer shows up...

I'm just holding out for the good luck, maybe mine gets scheduled before someone in July who knows.

It would be neat to see something kindof like a Bronco Sport with different styling and more of a focus on lifestyle rather than offroading. Basically it'd be a Bronco Sport with the Mav hybrid powerplant and maybe some smart daily features, if you look at minivans they have all kinds of really...
