YouTube car shows.....I like just about all of them, with a few exceptions. I used to like The Fast Lane Car (TFLC) until one of the head presenters brought his son on board, who has proved to be a doofus and at best, argumentative without having any sort of vehicle reviewing cred. That one’s off my list.
The other is Raiti’s Rides....again, someone who has a GoPro but little, if any, knowledge of vehicles over all. He tried to be a design critic, but fails, miserably.
I do like the guy from the New York Times.....Tom Voelk’s “Driven” show. I like the other Canadians, on The Straight Pipes, Motormouth as well as the ones we talk about here....WatchJRGO, Hoovies Garage, mustie1.

Be interested in how you like the drive. Have fun!
Had my second Moderna shot 3+ weeks ago.
No issues beyond the same slight soreness at the vaccination site.

Great cars, but I didn’t fit. Not enough headroom.

It's kinda like cars, if you think about it... one person can get a lemon from Honda or Toyota while another can own a string of Chryslers and never have a problem. (C'mon, give me credit for that appropriate bridge!)
This price may or may not be catching up to the recent bump in wholesale, but I do find the 2-tone interior oddly appealing. https://www.carmax.com/car/20139152 Carmax is at $14,7 on the trade side, which after the tax credit is only ~800 shy of Carvana.
It's just a hard sell at home when there's nothing local to actually test drive.

It's more the selling price and lack of incentives.

If you like the Pilot I can’t see you not liking the Highlander. I’ve ridden in several and it’s typical Toyota. As was pointed out it’s a little smaller than the Pilot but not all that much.
When we transitioned from the Enclave to the XC my wife noticed it felt a little smaller (which it is) but in real world use that size difference hasn’t hurt our hauling ability at all. Maybe it’s the way it was designed. The Enclave’s third row may have been a touch better, but since the XC can fit three across in the middle we never use it.

too bad these are like Tacomas now, and silly prices even with major miles.

Maverick footprint still looks like the sweetspot. Just need them to release actual details!
Just looked up that Nissan 4 door. Seems to be about 72" wide and 193" long. So about the size of a Camry. Seems perfect to me!

It’s getting to the point where anything with wheels is going for $5k.

Kind of like even in my once-attainable area any crackshack with a roof and 4 walls in a demilitarized zone is worth 200K now, and anything one might actually want, well, if you have to ask.
And for fun, shop ~10 year old Tacoma 4x4s with 150K or more on the clock. It's a wild world out there.

Lots of factors I suppose...when supply is able to ramp back up (chip shortages), economy factors, gas prices, etc.

They do have 47 Santa Fe’s though.
Toyota dealer is down to 5 Tacoma’s, all 2wd SR models.
To borrow @fintail’s analogy...If you pulled a hunk out of the junkyard and slapped a lawn mower engine in it, Vroom would probably hit you at 10k.

If/when gas hits the pain point level (high 3’s or 4) that will kick V8 truck and SUV numbers down a bit.
Economy? Who knows...it looks to be doing pretty well. Things are open back up and I see help wanted signs all over the service industry places. A good economy is going to drive both new and used markets IMHO.
Don’t forget tax refunds are on the way eventually. That usually stimulates some sales along with some well timed incentives from the manufacturers.

The trade offer from Polestar for the X3 was higher than any other offer, and they're offering a $2,000 incentive when you trade in an ICE vehicle. With that $2k, it's pretty much what I paid for the X3, so I'm taking the opportunity for an easy "reset."
The plan (best laid plans and all) would be to just have the Polestar 2 for the summer (for me, the wife still has her MINI) and then fill the third garage space in the fall.

10 sets of what I need is $930 plus shipping and tax.
The shutters are manufactured locally, so I called manufacturer to see if I could buy locally.
They gave me the name of a local distributor, so I went up to see them.
$700 out the door and I can pick them up next week.
Definitely worth a phone call to find out where I could get them.

It served its purpose - allowed me to evaluate my interest in an EV, and even with the early term cost it was a fairly inexpensive way to do that.

I should have posted this on another thread, but I agree, it would have been too strange to order them from some place in CA, just to have them shipped back here.
seriously did you buy and sell so many cars?

I wish the "jutting tablet" design fad would wane, still looks bad IMO, things can be integrated better.
