The inflated pandemic-era used car market was not going to last forever.

I've only briefly driven and ridden in a GT350, and it wasn't at the limits, but based on what I've read and heard time and time again on YouTube as well as from owners at the track, the main advantage the Shelby's (esp 350s, I think) have on the DH is steering feel and feedback. The GT350 is...

So calling an opinion irrational is now considered "name calling"? You know what I would call that idea? 100% irrational. Great book, BTW. I will strongly second your recommendation... though some people make the advice harder to follow than others. :wink:

Edited in a more thorough reply after realizing I somewhat misread your reply... either way, yeah, this horse wasn't worth keeping alive about 10 posts ago lulz.

... I think you're connecting some of the wrong dots, brotein. I'm not saying people are rednecks because they don't like start/stop. I'm saying that some people are rednecks, and because of that, they have an irrational disdain for start/stop. And I'm also not saying it in a way that was ever...

Brotato, I was making a tongue-in-cheek jab at people who are afraid of technology and/or think climate change is a hoax. I obviously don't think even the people I'm describing are literally rednecks by the Webster definition.

Check again, brolka dot. I said I don't hate the feature as much as many of the rednecks here. That does not imply either that everyone here is a redneck nor that everyone who dislikes the feature is a redneck. All it means is that there are some rednecks/Luddites here, and they blindly and...

Again, I never said everyone who hates the feature is a redneck, brometheus. I think you need to re-read my original post, which, BTW, we're taking far too seriously at this point in any case lol. I suppose I had a feeling that comment would strike a nerve for some people.

Where did I say I think that? Was it before or after I said I don't want the feature in my car?

I think you guys are deflecting a bit if you're assuming my post meant I think everyone who has ever disliked this feature is a redneck. As I was getting at in my earlier messages, even I myself am not a fan of this feature in sporty cars, especially with a manual, although based on somewhat...

Good to know it works that well. I'm not nearly as opposed to the feature as many of the rednecks on forums like this, and similarly I acknowledge the fact that climate change is a real problem, but I've heard enough about slight lag in the start-up of some vehicles with start/stop that I...

I would assume the manual doesn't have this feature, which makes buying it the simple solution, heh.

Assuming you're going to actually drive the car, nicks, scratches, and small dents will be inevitable, no matter how careful you are. Why sweat it? Just use it as leverage for a better deal if possible. At some point in the future, if you still have the car and enough papercuts add up to...

Bit of a shameless plug here, but I think I get more attention in my Mustang than I do in my Cayman, and I suspect it's for a similar reason as your wife -- better color and decals, hah. ... Though a lot of that is unwanted attention from people trying to race me.

Yeah, that is a reasonable real world number under many conditions... But it's not slow, and technically the presenter in that video never called it slow, either. Real world conditions are never ideal. You can call it slow once you put a couple cars that should be slower up against it on the...
