The general rule is you can’t go under 1,000' in a populated area, 500' in rural spots or over water. I’m not sure if it’s a hard and fast law, though. Read more

I tried to buy a car in GA last year and the tax was a big consideration — hundreds of dollars more for the same vehicle compared to in AL. The dealer isn’t profiting from it, they explained that state laws dictate this, but that consumers can take their bill of sale to the local DMV to have the difference refunded. I… Read more

But you have to get the cars in front of people — test drives, critical mass of inventory, things like that. Read more

Exactly that. While Tesla is doing amazing right now, it’s shooting fish in a barrel — a barrel chosen and curated by Tesla. I’d say 80%+ of the general population wouldn’t consider one without a showroom and/or support nearby. VW’s dealer network is pretty thin, but it’s far more encouraging than Tesla. Read more

Same deal with my 01 Passat. I drive it about once a week, but when I need it, I really need it. It gives us so much scheduling flexibility, and the bills are miniscule ($30 registration, about $500 in insurance, zero depreciation and almost no maintenance). Plus it’s an AWD wagon so in a pinch it can do all the… Read more

These short-lived bubbles are really only good for trading DOWN, not up (all else being equal). Read more

I thought people bought black and gray rims so they’d never have to clean them again... Read more

Of all the vintage/collector car segments, I know by far the least about old Japanese cars. Apart from West Coast, I’ve just never seen them in any real numbers, even at car shows. Meanwhile, every piece of obscure European or American steel can be found almost anywhere. Read more
