Things winding down for me at the place that has been my HQ since before 1970. Kind of got a mild sentimental case of the blues. Well not really, did you know that with prices going up so bad on even used vehicles that for $2k more than I was thinking of having to spend I could get a Mercedes M class? I'm looking at <80k miles. Yea that's without taxes though. then the upkeep, nope won't be happening for me!

So taking a break and found this on the tv, sounds like crap but I can hear the potential of the LP.

Thanks @Dave1291

Used cars have taken a huge rise lately.  Way more so than what most people need to spend on.  I had a neighbor sell out and go to their retirement place recently.  Could have bought  his car for a sweet price in great shape and flipped it for more, but I am not the flipping type, and I really didn't need another car.

@oldtimer it was something I read then looked into. Domestic and Oriental SUVs went way up. Apparently the ones that were $$ already did not so the Audis, BMWs the Mercedes GLC class also look to be within reach if only considering the purchase price!

This was a Mazda.  Sweet deal but I really just didn't want another car.  If I knew anyone here was in the market I would have done something about it.  Low miles, the works.  Their small crossover or suv, whatever people label these things.

Will two Forte's fit in the back of a BMW (2002?), asking for a friend of mine.

Song reminds me of bipolar ex-girlfriend. My experience: the hotter-the crazier.

Would you look into (not at) the dark lacquer on that little gem!

 

The book in the glove-box of our old Impala said it was Mirror-Magic Lacquer that chevy used back then.

@CWOReilly The pair? At once? @grasshopper pulled a similar feat with a small vehicle that had an alarming amount of square footage inside a couple years ago! For what I have to work with I'll probably rent a van for the haul.

Yea, the large package I can understand it's just finding a ride that can handle it...  :)

Easier to haul the pair of La Scala than the Polk SDA SRS.
