I picked the copypasta out of an older version of the Riseup thing. Someone's either going to have to undo the changes to it or stick the proper thing on a Pastebin somewhere.

Also Kia wants to make a name for itself in Oz by giving the coppers a fleet of Stinger GTs. Probably for highway duties or something. I'm looking forward to seeing them eat the maintenance costs that come with the TTV6 and whatever else blows up since they're being sold pretty cheap.

I don't actually mind how it looks though it's absolutely heretical to suggest that it's going to be a replacement for the Falcodore. It almost has a knock-off European feel to it, like someone wanted an Alfa Giulia Quadrifoglio but didn't want to pay the premium for the brand.

Just rolled into the store here. Salesman said there's 100 of them in the US. They weren't told when they would show up either. MSRP is $77,920, with dealer markup, total is $92,920

Driving Cross Country Anonymous 2017-01-13 06:56:16 Post No. 16482086 [Report] [View this topic]

Hello /o/

I'm a cityfag who's never owned a car but has plenty of driving experience. I want to spend 4-6 weeks driving cross country this summer. The route will be something along the lines of pic related. My budget for the car and trip is $8000, I'll probably sell the car shortly after the trip.

After some research I've decided I want a Mustang GT from model years 2001-2003, coupe, manual transmission. Can any Mustang owners or cross country drivers give me some tips? Should I go clockwise instead of counterclockwise around the country? Is a Mustang a bad idea? I am open to any ideas.

I've got a question for you guys. How many of you insure your shitboxes? I'm 21 and I currently pay $224 a month for my 90s pickup with collision and all that, and after shopping around even the most basic law-required liability insurance is still a little over $100 a month. Do you guys think it's worth it to have collision on a car that's valued at roughly $3,000 by my insurance company? I crashed it once and it was nearly totaled anyway just to repair some damage to the left front end (Broken light, bent hood, bent bumper, etc.). $224 is quite a lot for me with my other bills factored in, and I'm debating on dropping the collision entirely.

I feel like you're paying too much. I wouldn't pay that much. You're paying them nearly the value of the car in a bit more than a year. $100 a month is still pretty fucking expensive for bare minimum but you'd be $1200 better off after a year and you could probably pick up some kind of a car for that money if your current car was totalled without
- having to put in a claim
- waiting for them to process your claim
- insurance co raising your premiums
- insurance co charging you an excess
