$484 seems pretty high on a 4xe. Would have to be pretty loaded and/or have high mileage allotment (something I don't suggest) and/or you have brutal taxes, like in Texas. I'll be doing a one-pay 36/10 on my $61k build and expect it to come to just about $395 effective.

4! My son didn’t make it to 2.
Long story short I got stuck when moving out of our campground home (too much stuff) and my son had to ride in the front seat. I moved the front seat back as far as I could. He is 7, tall for his age and a solid 85 pounds. He loved it, but I was nervous.
I remember being younger than him in the front seat. How times have changed.
At 7 I remember riding in mom’s 1953 Ford standing on the seat or laying on the rear shelf looking up through the glass at the clouds. Seat belts? What were those?

of course, back in the early 60s, mothers still held their babies on their lap in the front seat. with no seatbelts. Doing the physics on a sudden stop in that situation, is not a pretty ending.

My sister, who was 4, rode on my mom's lap the whole way there, and back. The folks folded down the rear seat and made a small cubby for me (I was 7), and I was surrounded by luggage.
I'm not even sure the car had seatbelts, to be honest.

I am forever working on a Maserati or Porsche deal I can stomach. Aston and Ferrari will likely never be in reach.
Add to my wishlist: Renault, Citroen, Peugeot, Seat, Lancia, Skoda ….almost any forbidden fruit, really.

but quick recap, Ford discovered the off-site sub contractor that did the bed liners made a goof. They did not take the time to plug the drain holes before spraying. At least they realized the mistake and cleared them out. The problem is, they did it with a drill. and the gas tank is right below some of the holes. Meaning they drilled holes in some of the tanks. Plant (or dealer if already shipped) had to drop the tanks to inspect before they could sell the truck/
I had checked and mine was after the recall period. Though pretty much not an issue since I forgot to order it.
I did learn from the issue, and made sure to mention it to the place I am going to use. And will remind them a few times when it finally goes in. I did vet the place (I have used them before) and got referred to them by a high end installer of custom builds, that just does not do liners. They do work for a number of local car dealers too.

Two kinds of RX owners….one, they liked the looks and the high reving rotary, but had no clue how to care for it……two, those who knew the technology, the history, the mechanics and the maintenance required of a rotary (and also washed their car every week).
The former hated them. The latter loved them.
Finding one with a documented service history is important. At the very least, find one with receipts for an oil change religiously at 3K mile intervals.
Really fun cars that handled very well, very well balanced, great steering and shift action (stay away from the automatics). And, there’s nothing quite like wringing out a rotary to its 9K redline EVERY SINGLE GEAR (which the cars begged for).
TURO?

Or get one that just had a very expensive new engine installed!

Sorry if I don't take the Government at its word. Have you even read one supporting document for rear-facing?

One more. Great price. Impressive miles. Don’t blow it up, and can’t lose. Blow it up, still won’t lose much.

And resale has always been a safe bet on those, well before the current craziness.

I also picked up a set of lightly used all weather mats and cargo liner for the X5 off craigslist last night. So those were cheap, my snow tires off the Volvo fit the X5, and I don't have to buy all the gloss black trim pieces! What a deal!
Chatted with the seller of the X5 mats for quite awhile last night...he had a nice 3 car garage with a newer TRD Tundra, a Macan (that he bought to replace the X5) and a 911. I'm not nearly knowledgeable enough to say what year the 911 was (and I didn't ask), but I'd say it was a fairly recent model, and had a proper shifter.

At least most Hondas are priced well enough, that even pre craziness, sticker was not terrible deal. And CRVs alway hold value very well.

The price is getting a bit more palatable, especially considering the low miles. But still $6-8k higher than a year ago. Question is, will we even return to that pricing?
Personally, I think we will...perhaps evidenced by this M2 sitting so long.

I told her she is welcome to take over the X5 as her primary car if she wants, I'll use it as needed, and I'll take on her M340i. I'm nice that way.
