I like the look of the Civic over the Accord, actually. Or are you suggesting I shoot for a lower model Accord? Either way saves me money. I like the way you think.

JJkizak Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 My truck is 20 years old. I would not mind something new for the farm. That truck is just broke in. Why would you want to get a new one? JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just recently had the occasion to rent a new model Accord...hated it. Very small interior (for me), minimal headroom, terrible sightlines. JMHO of course.

Quiet_Hollow Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 minimal headroom, terrible sightlines. Totally agree. This is a problem with all recent sedans and coupes. Stupid really, making a car that the driver can't physically see out of. It's a real eye-opener just how ineffective DOT and NHTSA have been in the last two decades at establishing safer cars for the drivers (instead of the occupants or pedestrians). One would think by now the insurance companies would be all over that, like they were on sport cars & bikes in the 90's. The statistical data are clearly there.

Marvel Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 After I build the new house, open the Swiss bank account, change all of our phone numbers, e-mail addresses and my identity I'll put in my order for the Pagani and maybe get it delivered before I die. You don't want to do that... Or might not be able to do it if you don't already have one. Our gov'mint has put pressure on/threatened the Swiss to release all kinds of info about foreign bank accounts. Meaning you can't hide it or squirrel it away somewhere else, especially Switzerland.

jimjimbo Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 After all of the taxes have been deducted, why bother to move the money anywhere other than a few different US banks with a good return? Get a few unlimited credit cards, a couple of debit cards, and you're good to go. Unfortunately there are many states that require you to divulge your name if you are a winner, which I've never understood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Sorry, the Chinese already own that county Nah, those guys have bigger fish to fry. We have no major manufacturing centers around here that I know of. We do have a 17,000 acre lake. How bout that Chinese persuasion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
