damn, did this thread ever take a hard left turn (no pun intended)

Man I hate driving the wife's elantra even though I know it's a decent car. My last four vehicles are Ram, Grand Caravan, Highlander, Highlander 4cyl. My favourite to be honest is prob that 2005 Highlander. The wife's are Elantra, Sportwagen, Aveo. She chooses to make payments on those vehicles but always wants to drive mine.

my wife has an elantra also, because it's an inexpensive car.......but she insists we drive my Sierra everywhere. my monthly gas is more than her car payments

Ouch!

I'm thinking about the Rav4 Prime, plugin hybrid as my next car. 300 hp, 0-60 in under 6 seconds and like 50-60km electrical only range.

Cars are so (frank)ing expensive.

I would love to go electric, but I live in Halifax and while there are a few charge stations here, there are exactly zero between here and Quebec city (other than peoples personal ones).....and I drive back and forth to Ottawa a lot. they're useless to me except as a commuter to and from work...........so I kind of went the other way with the GMC 1500 V8 truck

Yeah, I think it is a long time away when cars are all electric.

That is what is so intriguing about this car, that range is actually useful for commuting and running around town on electric if I plug it in at home and at work. There is no
range problem with the hybrid. Seems like the best of both worlds

i am thinking about going to a 1 hybrid / 1 gas car household in the next year or so.

seems like the way to go at the moment.

I was gonna put in the deposit on the cybertruck but you gotta think about installing a home charger and all don't you?

When I lived out West I really wanted a hybrid Highlander but they were around $60K. Maybe the next small car my wife wants will be a prius or something.

enjoy the prius it when she pawns it off on you.

i bit the bullet and stop fooling around when the wife took over the 4runner ('for the kids') and stuck me with her jetta. she got a highlander she actually likes driving. i got a tacoma.

i like the tacoma. what a good looking truck. but i'm afraid people would constantly be asking me to help them move or to take them to pick up their new TV or furniture and i am very lazy.

it's actually much more entertainting than the thread used to be, you gotta admit.

it's really caused me to avoid having friends.



but really, i got a stick. nobody can borrow it. works as a great anti-theft device for millennials as well.

just go by the rule of 400 bhp minimum for your car and you'll be happy

soon manuals will be gone completely and not too long after that we probably won't even be able to get kids to understand how they worked when we try to tell them about it.

i'll die if it helps me get out of helping people move.

i don't even move mydamnself. i pay movers.

matter of fact, i told the last person who asked me to help them move that i'd help them pay for movers before i'd do that.

once you make over a certain amount of money there's really no excuse not to get movers. makes moving almost completely stress free and your back doesn't feel like it's falling off for a week after.
