Car Talk 6: Best of times and Worst of Times

that's a pretty crazy car to house ratio. What always shocks me here, you'll have a 4-6M house and the person is driving a 2006 Odyssey I mean... not that I would buy an Urus, but I sort of get it here. A mill gets you a pretty damn dece pad in Charlotte, you could be in just about any neighborhood...

OT 21: DFD Giveth and DFD Taketh Away

My parents rode that one out in their bungalow @ Ormond Beach. They don't have any internet so I haven't heard from them, but things never got too bad on that end. Apparently one person died from a tree falling onto their house. ☹️ East Coast was generally ok this time. Sad for anyone that had to d...

No one said that. I said Ohio Bentley ownership is odd. So yes you're reaching. Ohio Bentley ownership is odd....based on average income ranking of the state? :wat: Whether the average income of a state is $70k or $65k doesn't matter. It has zero to do with how easy it is to live with and service a...

Wow driving a Bentley in Ohio takes same balls Quoting to fact check... Why does this take balls? And you've never been to the state of OH.

Why are you reaching here? You mentioned something like OH is the 7th most populous state. The comment in return was that it was something not quite aspirational. That doesn't really sell it as anything special. Like finishing 7th in a race. As mentioned I am sure parts of Ohio are cool, but that d...

Clearly they haven't... Everyone acts like Ohio is basically like Idaho but with corn instead of potatoes.

Guys, have y'all been to OH? It is the 7th most populous state in the US... Is 7th place supposed to mean something :lolgasm: I was curious about it, as I wanted to see if it was truly bad or if places were kind of alright. But I don’t have friends or fam there and never had the need/desire to go.

Final selling price is prob around 72,350 for the person buying it. I don't think the 5% fee is invisible... to the seller/buyer and the middle man takes quite a huge cut. Once you add taxes you're up 15% above selling price in cali... you add in shipping it could be 20%... :disgust: I still don't u...

C&B asked him to lower the reserve so that he sells the car, don't think it has anything to do with "drawing interest", if they don't meet the reserve no one makes money so they are enticed to set it as low as possible. Market is clearly soft for a 5+ year old 45k mile Bentley badged ...
