Geesh. For the life of me, I can’t recall you getting an e-class.

It's a wagon, right?

Not that it matters. It probably won't even make it home from the shop.

Eh, don’t judge so quickly. Single young guy who has a 9-5 consulting job and decided to uber the weekends for extra money. He financed the tesla.
I’m not necessarily judging but just wondering based on experience how he would make any money. I’ve looked at several people who have done ride share with new vehicles and when they considered the depreciation costs they found they were losing money.
One coworker tried it for a year with her new Honda CRV. She put an extra 30k miles on it in addition to the 12k miles of personal driving. When she looked at the value of her car with 42k miles vs 12k miles she decided that she was making less than minimum wage. I’m assuming the depreciation hit on a Tesla would be even worse. That dynamic would be true for miles accrued on the way home from other business or on the weekends or whatever. Perhaps someone who already used their car for business could plow some of their Uber costs into a separate business deduction but I’m not that good of an accountant.
My conclusion was that to maximize profit with Uber you have to have the cheapest suitable vehicle that will qualify. That’s why my son got a low mile 10 year old Fusion. It cost 25% of a new one but still had 5 years of eligibility left. The cost of depreciation is insignificant compared to a Tesla. If he puts 100k on his car over five years it might have cost him $6,000. How much would the value drop on any new car after driving similar miles?

I can't comprehend how anyone manages to get commercial insurance. For weeks, I have been unsuccessfully trying to obtain quotes. All of these companies refer me to each other. So you reach out to 1234 Insurance, and they respond "we've passed you onto our partner 5678 insurance," who then reaches out and says "we passed you onto our partner 9XY Insurance," who then reaches out and says "we passed you to 1234 Insurance," and the cycle starts again. I've simplified it in my example, but that is what it comes down to. Even when I've reached out to big companies, like Progressive and Geico, they refer me to one of these online brokers who is supposed to get me multiple quotes from other companies, but they wind up sending me a link to another broker who then tells me to go to Progressive or Geico. Say what now?!

if it was local and I could have it inspected I would buy it for that.

Ford Motor Co. said it is recalling 634,000 crossovers worldwide over fire risks from possible cracked fuel injectors and will urge owners to have their cars inspected.
Ford on Thursday said the recall covers 2020-23 model year Bronco Sport and Escape crossovers with 3 cylinder, 1.5 liter engines, including many also recalled in April because an oil separator housing could crack and develop a leak that could cause an engine fire.
The recall covers about 520,000 vehicles in the U.S. and about 114,000 in other countries.

Is that the same location where there were thousands and thousands of Ford trucks stacked up last year? And what happened to the story people keep telling about the chip shortage being over?
The area near the old munitions plant in Charlestown, IN still has a lot of Super Duties.
They are followed by a salesperson-of course!-and they get into the car and drive away.
I've missed a car by a day or so, but this is the first time that I missed one by 15 minutes and to Todd and Lisa no less.

A real [non-permissible content removed] getting older when one isn't healthy, makes many day to day things really hard to do. Am still seriously considering going down to a two day a week work schedule as am having more bad then good days. Luckily that vertigo is being dealt with and hoping it'll never come back. Besides making one super miserable, lying in bed or in the recliner is not a fun way to spend one's "golden years"!

Hopefully, we'll reach some kind of solution before another bunch of years go by. Just looking for justice here after all these years. Their actions changed our lives at the time & led to a period of severe depression for me. They even stripped us of my health insurance before my union and Congress representative had it completely restored a couple of weeks later. I hit bottom but finally was able to make lemonade out of lemons once I got into the rental car business in January of 2013...and I've never looked back! Took my civil service pension as I had the age & enough years of service to qualify. Working part time almost 10 years now has been a great thing for me & am very blessed I feel. Once this lawsuit is settled and I finally get some closure for their wrong done to me, I'll be a very happy camper. Just want this albatross done away with already!!

12 years?! How does it get dragged out that long? They are obviously hoping you’ll kick off before they pay, but how is that allowed? What do they do to keep putting it off? Would be good to know in case I ever get sued.

But how does it work? If I’m the plaintiff, I’m pushing for things to move. What does the defendant do to bring it to a halt?

That sounds like the lawyers are milking the case for all it’s worth and racking up the billable hours.

Why would the judge not want a trial? Isn’t that their job? And I thought there was a limit to continuances? Not to mention needing a reason??

Well, I’ll just say I’ve told my wife she can’t buy any more GLCs.
Wednesday she decided she’d like an EV of her own, so she drove a Model Y and Mach E and loved the Ford.
Black Friday shopping ended with this…
