You're a **** full-of-**** troll. You eat **** here every day from what I see.
So you drive a beater. Good for you.
I have a 1948 8N. The upholstery is still as good as new.
saw this video awhile back to see if my old 560 IH made the list...can't save everyone...

Let me guess - you love tickets and backaches?
The sportiest car I ever drove - briefly - was a Ford Maverick.
My goal was always to be the invisible man - the guy the cops didn't even see. My favorite cars back in the day were a 72 Ford Custom with police package that I got second hand in 77 from the Water Department, and a 76 Ford Gran Torino I bought second hand in 1980. It had muscle, but the cops definitely looked past it as a family car. I drove that thing all over the country - loved the ride.
"sportiest"? 
you need to get out more...

I've never been one to spend a lot of money on vehicles, the depreciation makes me cringe a bit.
My current Grandpa grocery getter is a 2022 Buick Enclave Avenir. Optional AWD and too many buttons. Had it a year now and pretty happy, nice comfortable ride. Just took it down to Durango over 3 passes and 10 mph switchbacks. It performed well and got 28 mpg. We paid about $50k with taxes and registration and it had just under 10k miles, has 15k now.
I mostly drive the old clunker, 2006 Acura TSX with 165,000 miles. It's getting a little tired but gets the dogs to the dog park.
It's good to see some forum members have a little cash to throw around. Trump must not be hurting you too bad.

That was my point, dumb ***. The Maverick was not very sporty.
I never **** with sports cars because they stand out. My rides were as invisible as I could manage them to be - no bumper stickers, nothing to stand out and catch attention from poh leece.
It didn't START that way. But I learnt quick.

I had to laugh, cuz my roommate had a '70 maverick, "heavy on the ick" which I bought from her...to this day I think she ripped me off...(which I'll have to bring up, again!)
It ran like a clock, but the front doors were rusted through, so I stuff old long underwear, etc, to stop the drafts...
the most memorable drive was the 70 miles from her mom's to our place...late evening, -20F, she's wrapped in a sleeping bag while I froze my *** off...**** that was a long way home...

I’m not saying tariffs are ruining marriages, but I am saying I now have to park next to her car and feel inadequate.
Anyway, just wanted to warn the rest of you. If you’re thinking of buying a car, beware: Tariffs will force you to upgrade to the trim with the massage seats.
Stay strong out there.

Stick with the "Base Model" crank windows and 5 speed..
Sure ya got shift gears and clutch smooth but a "Stick-Shift" they cant put all that computer crap on em ..
Thats the problem with America..
Back in the day Stick shift crank windows off dealership lot put half down in Ca$h float a note afew years the rest make payments..
Ya cant even buy them anymore they dont even make em anymore..
Uh Excuse me a "Info-Tainment" Center the dashboad a Computer Screen..
Ya supposed to be "Driving" and be watching around become "One" with the Road too..
Stick shift also saves ya Brakes because ya rev up Downshift let the "Engine Braking" slow ya down too

If gas gets any lower, (4 year low now), I will be buying a new vehicle. I just know I will. These tariffs are killing me. 
So, let's recap the Ignorance here...shall we.

Then, there is the sugar sand, boat ramps, and unpaved trails. AWD keeps you from getting stuck like a tourist in flip-flops. AWD Lock mode (like in the Palisade) can force 50/50 torque split for max traction. AWD in Florida isn’t just for snowbirds—it’s for rain warriors, ramp bosses, and beach cruisers. Subaru and Audi have the AWD system in all their cars. I know Subaru does.
All-wheel drive (AWD) has no bearing on a vehicle's resistance to the onset of hydroplaning. Hydroplaning is primarily influenced by factors related to the tires and driving conditions, not which wheels are being driven.Huey » 20 Oct 2025, 1:40 pm » wrote: ↑ Don't get too technical and real with him.
