Thanks to @nyccarguy for letting me know that running it in 4WD auto increases the max regeneration effect. So far I'm averaging 40 mpg.

Hmmmmm… from what I read, it is quicker than the 5.3.
What I really need to do is go check out a 5.7 Ram.

I think the Silverado is nice enough looking and I’ve been in one and the interior is pretty good. Even for a GM product which was always their downfall in my opinion.

Problem is, it is very tough to justify one when you are seeing comparisons like this on the market. Although it probably tells me a new Colorado is a far smarter buy than a new full-size. But a USED full-size is a pretty good bargain, relatively speaking.

Anyway, my BIL gets contacted by a headhunter for a new position, with a substantial pay bump (20% or so). But, it would require him to be in the office daily for a while, before reverting to a hybrid position. They are also tired of paying $6/gal for gas.
Their first thought is to trade the XC40 for an XC60 PHEV. I explain to her that unless their total cost of ownership goes down (payment + gas costs + insurance), it doesn't make sense to trade. I tried to talk her into something less expensive (Camry or Accord hybrid, for example), but they aren't having any of it - my BIL is a bit of a brand snob. "We like the utility of our SUV!" - fine, but on those rare occasions where they need to haul something, use their son's 4Runner. Long talk about use cases and how most people buy a car for a purpose they'll need about 5% of the time.
Then, my BIL gets the idea that he should get his own car - and starts looking at BMW's and Audi's that are in the $15K range. My sister doesn't need me to shoot down this idea before it gets any traction.
If he gets the job, and if he has to go into the office daily (which is further away, also), he can take the Volvo, and my sister will take the Hyundai on those two days a week where she commutes.
I know, it's heresy to make those kinds of suggestions in this thread, but sometimes people need to be saved from themselves.

I don't know what the market is for well-used electrics, but that might be the way to go, if the economics work on fuel. I know electricity is a pretty penny in those parts, too.

They have solar at their new house, so I suspect that getting a charger installed wouldn't be too difficult, if it comes to that.

The last bout with the vertigo happened last March and I was down two weeks recovering. Seems it takes a couple of weeks for it to stop completely and this has been the pattern...this is the fourth time I've suffered from it in the last fourteen months. I've been taking the meds on a daily basis but it still came back last week without any warning. Really does suck as my life basically stops and I'm house bound. Spend my time either in bed or in the recliner and have to walk with a walker since I tend to fall more when it occurs. It really is horrible!

They make patch sections for the wrangler frame since it is pretty common.

Not sure that you would fly to Germany, but thought I'd mention it since it's happened to you so much recently.

I did some internet searching for vertigo and lightheadedness a few months back. If the vertigo
is caused by particles in the inner ear, there are specific exercises for the head where the movement of the head helps move the granules away from the sensory cells inside the inner ear.

Thanks, I watched SOME of that. No wonder some states don’t allow frame repair. If I was somehow that bad off financially, I’d opt for shooting myself. That’s got to be less painful than having a car crumble around you after hitting a few potholes.
That video should be the poster child for banning YouTube videos for that type of repair.

If he listed it on CL and did what you suggested he’d be fielding calls asking about trades and financing.

Maybe he can do a quick flip.
I should have asked at least a grand more.

It's sold for about what you asked and it was quick, so not too bad.

I was thinking something very similar.
I think this happened back in the ‘80s:
A secretary at work asked me about a car one of her relatives had and gave me a few particulars about it and I didn’t like what I heard so I told her to stay away from it and even gave her some reasons why. She tells me a few of her relatives told her it was too good of a deal to pass by, so she bought it. Everything was fine for a few months then the tranny crapped out. She tells me about this and didn’t blame me but said, “you should have screamed at me not to buy it but thanks anyway”.
That didn’t make me feel much better but other than telling folks you don’t want to get involved, I don’t know what more you can do sometimes.

So, I think my advice worked.

Galena, KS - replica of Tow Mater and a repurposed service station which now sells souvenirs. I probably should have stopped at the Mining & Historical Museum, but didn’t realize it was there. Downtown looked dead on a weekday, with an overabundance of angled, pull-in parking spaces.
100% guarantee you that won't happen.
Although it does make sense, even though the Volvo will likely get better MPG than the Hyundai.

Mrs. j really liked all the angled parking spots in the original part of the town we lived in when we lived in SC. She wouldn’t even drive there if it weren’t for those spots right on the main street of that town. There is no way she’d parallel park on a side street.

I figured what the heck…doesn’t hurt to ask, and started a dialogue with the Audi dealer. At the end of the day, I’m cutting a check for $2,000 to upgrade to a Premium Plus trim level and keep the same lease payment.
I really wanted the upgraded stereo and surround camera, but am also getting nice features like ventilated seats, heated rear seats, and ambient lighting. And I got a more colorful option (mine is at the port and due at the dealer in a couple weeks, but this is exactly like the one I’ll be getting)…

Correct. I’m swapping Q8’s for a better trim.
