I think he will pocket the profit from the Supra and survey the field. I'm starting to notice more, er, maturity in his car buying process. Notice he didn't jump right into either of the M2's he was stalking? A few years ago, he'd have pulled the trigger pretty quickly.

Other route for you is Turo or just regular rentals. Gotta find the high end stuff, of course. Drive your Leaf to where renting from and leave it there. Haha.

Of course you can really load them up. Some of the higher trim levels topped out close to $45k. I suppose if that was your only vehicle and drove it to the club with your rich friends that might make sense but if, like me, you’d be hauling junk to the dump it just wouldn’t fly.
In fact, I don’t even like the idea of a “new” truck. I see a truck as purely utilitarian and it should have some dings and blemishes along with a lower price. The trouble is, there are no cheap trucks any more. Even the junkers go for obscene prices.

But I agree with RB, there has to be a better name...

Now I know that I’m a low mile fanatic but how would you know that at 129k miles that car wasn’t all used up and waiting to slap you with expensive repairs? I mean, my cargo van has about the same mileage and it’s a wreck.
