@chris_pointon @hjwakerley I found it astounding that they didn't take credit cards when I went. Cash or nothing so....nothing. On a business trip with an expense account but if they don't take cc you are screwed.

@Everythingscoo1 We are in a horrible color constrained period right now. It's like the colorblind are making the palette. Every shade of gray is well represented.

@the_autopian Just left Hilton Head/Savannah area and the best price was $3.08/gal at Sam’s. Not great but it’s what it is.

2022 Dodge Charger R/T with 5.7 Hemi from Hertz for the week. Rented a Mazda3 and got this. Very cool car but interior and seats suck. No way near a $50K vehicle. Still sounds cool though. 18mpg…..I’m okay with that for a week though.

@ajtonge40 @TamerlaneBlog Yeah Mustang or Corvette for me also. We had a 2005 Mustang and now I think I want a 2016 Shelby GT350 or 2006-ish Z06. Nothing new.

@cargueone Went to the first dealer opening in OKC for Infinity. The Q45 was awesome but the M30 hardtop was cooler. The Lexus GS300 is what I would have bought if i had money to blow back then.

@Mike_M_Klotz @BBell73 Strut masters setup. Sad but I am sure someone would have bought it.

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@Mike_M_Klotz Cheaper to just buy the car from them for whatever the agreed value is and then give it to the son and sell his car. Done.

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@TamerlaneBlog Hard no. 😉 The euro 1986 535is manual with manual seats is the greatest sedan ever built. Balance and reliability.

@JoeLigo The Cuda is so nice. The AMC was never as sexy. All AMC cars were blunt objects. Never sexy.

@BrixActual @thedisturbed007 Ah got it. Yeah our 2005 V6 Auto was okay but just okay. I bought it from my friend who upgraded to a 2015 GT performance pack manual which was a whole different world.

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@BrixActual @thedisturbed007 The 2011-2014 came with the Coyote. 1st Gen Coyote engine

@thedisturbed007 This was our v6 version. It wasn't oerfect but it was good for the years we owned it. Sold it for $5,500 in 2021. I replaced basically the whole suspension in the 3 years we owned it with Koni and Steeda parts so it was solid but the automatic wasn't great. Shelby GT350 next

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@yepronsaidit @Lambothirteen So sad Ron. Parts are probably a bear to get now. Still a very cool car. They cost too much when I entered the USAF so I bought a 1987 Ninja600 instead. Old times.

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@timoldland The 5 spoke give it a very Mustang feel. Not as elegant as the Vanquish though.

[GithyankiPhil @flyingvengeance]

@Noonz How much do insurance companies lose on these kinds of crashes? What would a premium be on something like this?
