And here I am as a base truck guy....though the engines are nice for towing!! ?

LOUD

Not going to lie, it’s funky, kinda like it....

Looks much better!

Even though the Camry has a face only a mother would love, I still like the car over the Accord.....

You’re talking to someone who until recently had a 17, 16 and 14 year old car. I’m as cheap as they come...brought up that way, and forced to be cheap as well.... Even my current “newies ” (20 Trax, 19 Nox) are base models. The LS models have just enough of what I need, but still cheap enough to keep after the lease. Besides, I’d rather to enjoy other stuff in life, and throw in a classic ride too. Being cheap is good. ?

Agreed! I think if cars were really going away, the Accord and Camry would be in trouble. While sales are down-they are just adjusting production. The only reason we see other auto makers dumping them is that they were never really in the game to begin with. (granted the Fusion was getting there) The easy way to fix cars is to price them sensibly- just simply have more lower models...there are still folks who do not want it all, or simply want it on price. Keep the Luxury (and prices) on the SUVs/trucks...

We’ll have to see. I would think they would need some base trucks for places like auto part stores and such. They would be silly to have no work trucks........

Well, I was going to say that I liked the K5 better....the Sonata is just too odd looking to me......

Believe it or not, I do not see the sedan/coupe dying just yet. With the price of the CUVs/SUVs and trucks going sky high, people will eventually want cheaper, more basic stuff again. I think that Ford may have a hit with the Maverick on their hands if they can price it right. Small businesses alone will love it.... I am already seeing a start, as a few of my friends got cars for their kids that they wanted- a Ford Fusion and a Kia Forte. Neither wanted anything huge and clunky. I expect automakers to switch gears to cheaper rides rather the risk the loss in sales.......

Just noticed that the Word Association Thread was trimmed down....remember it being over 1000 pages. Must have been taking up some room....

A Vette is a very fun go cart though... ?

Any pictures of a clean truck? ?

Crime

Have a fire truck down my street this morning....

NBC

Yeah, she literally went in to grab some milk, and parked out deep in the parking lot. Not sure why the dude was so angry, sounds like he did it to others as well. Wife just hurried and got the heck out of there.... Good news is that I can’t feel the scratch. I threw some cleaning wax on, and seems to have gotten some of it off. Think I will try some compound by Meg’s to see if I can get most all o the scratch out ( I hope) It’s why my Nox is not driven much to the stores any more. Between the hit to my Cobalt and then this- people are simply out to break stuff.......

Well, getting back ON topic- I hope they can get it fixed and back to you for some happy motoring......

Worried about my friends on the West Coast..... Boy the Facebook folk are really pushing the conspiracy theories right now.....I hear the next up is a year long power outage.... Spent the weekend working on the cars.....sadly someone who was pissed off slammed a shopping cart into her Trax and yelled at her, for no reason at all..... ? Big scratches on the side now....
