It was half. Are you mother fucking Richard Nixon? :dat: it was $23,xxx brand new. Sure there has been inflation, but not 100%. To put it into perspective, the average price of a gallon of gas in 2011 was $3.52. It is now $4.20. ok, to do this for this environment you really have to compare MSRP to...

Built-in speakers don't necessarily add value, but buyers can certainly get :fuckyeah: about them so I don't think they'll hurt anything either.

Ram drivers tend to be the worst here.
Fun fact: Ram drivers have the highest % DUI conviction of any vehicle by quite a margin. I think it's something like 5% of RAM owners carry a conviction for DUI :lolol:
this surprises no one.

If you're talking about the base 981 Boxster like the one Dan posted it's not faster. They weigh the same and the 911 has only about 20-30hp more but a full 60lbs ft more. I loved everything about the Boxster I had for a week but it desperately needed shorter gearing . I'd have to drive a 996 to se...

they are having to euthanize cattle. WHY pray tell with beef still nearly 2x from a year ago? The processors are not or cannot take them.

That sounds absolutely awful. Good luck. I hope you used a credit card; if they continue to jerk you around use the cards consumer protections. Another annoying part.

Amazing share, very cool stuff.

Have you thought about submitting to the national archives? IDK how much of this kind of detailed photographic accounts they have from WW1, but I would think this would be a good addition in any case.
