  1. Dealership. However, Carvana allowed me to test drive the Avalanche and do my own inspection on it before I agreed to buy it. I could back out at any point up to 7 days after signing the papers and taking it home as long as I didn't put more than 1,000 miles on it. I also could have refused delivery at the time of pickup with no penalty to me. There is no way all dealerships will move online only, but many will. The profit margin increase for them is too high to not pursue it. For people who don't care about cars and just want to point and click on an Altima for $199 a month, online only will work just fine. The only reason I bought the truck I did was because it was the truck it was... but I'm picky like that.
  2. 620 new cases today in Allegheny County. We've been over 500 every day since Sunday with the exception of monday when not a lot of tests were processed. Today is the worst day on record. 110 deaths statewide in PA today. We're down to 82 ICU beds left for an area of 1.2 million and occupancy is going up on average of 10 per day, so our ICUs will be at or over capacity before Dec 1. UPMC and AHN, our two largest hospital networks, have ordered freezer trucks for the bodies.
  3. Same way I bought my Avalanche online. I went and test drove a local one to make sure my memory of what I had matched what I wanted.... basically, I made sure I still wanted one and then went and hunted one down. The one I test drove had been abused even though the mileage was low, that's why I didn't buy that one. Bought mine online from Carvana and they shipped it to me from Indianapolis in 4 days. I'd like a paintjob safe offroading trail to take the Avalanche on.
  4. This one plus the Park Avenue was a time when Buick was trying to be an American Jaguar at its top end. Look at a final Park Avenue and an XJ of the same year and tell me you don't see similar lines.
  5. Haha! I think you got the name wrong... but Game
  6. Not sure what browser you are using, but if you're on Firefox, you can either right click the link and open in an Incognito tab or change your security settings to Strict for those concerns (the second option might break certain websites like C&G where you log in). Edge and Chrome you can set InPrivate mode to be strict browsing as well.
  7. What link do you have saved? It looks like you might have saved a link to a specific post or stream.
  8. Can you provide some screenshots?
  9. If I could photocopy my best friend's dog and keep him as my own I would. He loves coming over to our place, it's like his second domain. I fold the seats down in the back of the avalanche and put blankets down and he rides around in the back with me.
  10. Thanks guys, I had a really nice birthday. I got some cash from my family to put towards my motorcycle fund and I got a pasta extruder so I can now make macaroni and other extruded past shapes. I made 8 eggs of pasta for dinner last night and it turned out great. Saturday night I had a small group of friends over for pizza, drinks, and cake and my best friend left his dog with us for the night so I had him all Sunday as my shadow. It was nice and calm and I got a nice birthday present from the State of PA too. :-)
  11. It’s that old? It was in great shape and most old mustangs around here are beat to hell
  12. Did I miss a Ford press release on mustang engines?
  13. No political discussion.
  14. French Alps for me. It's a bit warmer.
  15. I agree... I was simply stating step 1.
  16. I know I can lock my front axle and I have the G80 on my rear axle.... I don't know if my center transfer case locks though.... now I need to go find out. We need comprehensive election process reform. No other countries have these problems we have with counting votes. As I often say, you can have Eco or you can have Boost, but you can't have both at the same time.
  17. USA......?
  18. Happy Halloween
  19. I drove in the Bethel Park Halloween parade to hand out candy to kids instead of them having trick or treat. A nice selection of other classics.
  20. Easy fix. You should be flooring it until the transmission is hot.
  21. What's the weird 3-4 shift?
