It is. It's why dealers hate it when you focus on the price and tell them you don't care about the payments. People who have the assets to slide a credit card to the dealer and say put it on this, knowing they can pay it all off before the bill comes due, focus on the price.

Damn. That's ridiculous. Good for you for making the financially smart decision. Let someone else be the sucker that's born every minute.

I know people who were c-level execs at S&P 500 companies or who sold their companies to those firms. They'll spend a lot of money but they do it wisely. That's how they stay wealthy. Yes, they could easily piss away six, ten, twenty, even 100 grand. But they don't. They want any purchase they...

The whole point of a Maverick is that it's inexpensive and provides good value. Add six grand to the price and it's neither.

I think (I can't track my car because it's a convertible even though it would run circles around some of the cars I've seen at track days) that we're talking going from 32 to 30. So not a huge reduction. Just a few PSI. I really would like to track my car a few times to see what it can really...

I've heard of people deflating PS4s or SC2s a few pounds when they take them to the track and by the end of the day, they're running close to the 50 PSI max. Of course, highway driving is not a track day so I kind of doubt it would happen.

One of my employees saw one this weekend. Seeing how San Diego was used for a lot of the shots of the Maverick (I literally walk by the townhome that's in the background when the Maverick parallel parks and the actor takes things out of it every day) I was wondering if Ford is doing another...

Actually, I was wrong. Here is a real world test that Popular Mechanics did. Now, if we want to be pedantic about it, we could say it's one test and that we need more data points to draw a definitive conclusion. And that would be correct. But as a proof of concept test, the negligible...

Maybe five percent would be more accurate? Even if it were true, you can buy a lot of gas for the two grand it cost to buy the PS4s on my Mustang. I'll go with the already stiff ride at the posted 32 PSI, slightly lower MPG and longer lasting tires. I plan on doing the same for my Maverick...

It's been difficult to complete our orders with the wholesalers so if we're having problems that's not a surprise.

Who gets this one? In a hybrid truck. Kind of ironic, too.

Don't forget rubber bar mats. They make a great option if you're willing to buy a couple and trim them down. And those things are damn near indestructible.

Bad idea. You don't just eat the depreciation. You also eat the taxes and fees. And the used car market will cool down, with many experts saying it will happen this year. Pay for the repairs and keep your current car going until you get your truck.

Take care of your truck and it will take care of you. Follow the maintenance directions. When that change oil light comes on, change it. If you take care of your truck there is absolutely no reason it won't last you for more than a decade.

You forgot the part about me paying a small transfer fee to get half the 3.8 million in your bank account.

This might help. https://www.motorbiscuit.com/how-many-miles-can-a-car-go-on-empty/ I have taken my Mustang down to two miles to empty. It took a little over 14 gallons to fill it up at that point. With a 15 gallon tank, I probably had another 15 miles before I really ran out of gas. I might...

be grateful that you aren't in Japan waiting for a Toyota Land Cruiser. Those folks will have to wait four years. That is ridiculous! https://www.bbc.com/news/business-60078594 Toyota Land Cruiser customers in Japan face four-year wait Motor industry giant Toyota has warned customers in Japan...

You know, I wasn't expecting mine so it was more like, oh, cool. Kind of like finding a $20 on the sidewalk. I ordered in mid-August and got scheduled today. And that's for a hybrid with a spray in bed liner.

They would have to offer a number with at least two digits before the comma before I thought about it. This is a work truck. I'd be giving up at least 10K in depreciation expenses that I can use to offset income. So unless they're willing to offset that, the answer is no. I think saying "well...

I've never been a fan of any license plate frame. I paid you tens of thousands for a vehicle and you want me to do your marketing for free?
