Been trying to buy a Golf Alltrack.  

Tried dealers, but they're such greasy bastards that you'd rather pay Carvana a premium to avoid them.

But dealing with Carvana sucks...and they sent me a car with a cam shaft timing problem....

So I find one on Carmax, for $2 grand more...putting me about 5k over my original budget...

You have to pay Carmax to bring the car to a location near you...350 to bring it to NH from Md.  Took 2 weeks.

It is supposed to go through a state inspection and final quality check...

I get a call yesterday.

"We can't sell you the car. We've lost the title. It will take 4 weeks, or more, to replace it."

I ask
"You gotta find the original owner?"

"Yes. But when we get the assignment, we ask the customer to fill out a duplicate, in case we lose the original."

"Great. So where's the duplicate?"

 "It's in the packet with the original."

I take a moment to compose myself.

"Seriously?"

"Yea...we couldn't figure out a place to keep them."

Carmax has refunded my 3fitty, and will ship me another car of my choice...

The problem is that the price of Alltracks are up 3-5k in the past 6 months...the car I booked is probably worth a grand more than I'm paying.

Appreciate the offer...

Hope you get the car soon.  Americans will not be able to afford one in the near future.

Low Rent is coming alive like TrumpEpstein..

Thank you...

I'm hoping it is before the GTI (215k miles) leaves me stranded somewhere.

A Coworker had the seafood platter in Omaha once.  The food poisoning lasted for weeks.


We are running out of multiple choices in America fast.

I drive VWs because they're designed and engineered by people who prioritize the driving experience. 

I compromised on the manual so The Beast can drive it, but even with DSG it is fun...

I guess you need 4 doors so you can store your cane and wheelchair.  And a used car?  You, a self described successful and superior being buy someone else's problems?

And now the mania..

No....I don't want to drive an SUV. I would like space for my dog (s), golf clubs and skis....you know, things for which you don't have the T.

Because I BUY, I let someone else take the haircut...then I drive it til it is pronounced dead.

Go find me a 2025 Alltrack.

**** idiot.
