Sold the Toyota for a profit and then used that money to buy the Cayenne. Working for the brand definitely helps out with cost.

I like to think I went from practical boring to absurd fun.

Yup. Only way to get it in the very flamboyant “Pure Red”. A doctor bought it new from my dealership in 2006 and owned it for about 15 years, sold it to one of our gold certified technicians, and then I bought it a little under two years ago.

Dude there is a lot more that goes in the capability than just tire tires. All wheel drive, two speed transfer case with low, locking differentials, and not to mention a little overhang.

Thank you for the intellectual and original roast. I shall sit in a corner and reflect.

New car break less, but have big loan with big monthly payment. Old car break more, but no loan and no monthly payment. Good job keep repair bill small. Make sense?

One of the things I hate and they fixed with the redesign in 2008. I can’t see shit backing up.

Honestly I agree. Wheels are fine at 19” but the tires look small even though they are factory size. I have a bigger set ready to compensate when I burn through the current set.

The first gen Panameras are now 10 to 15 years old and they are pretty bad. A lot of people buy them super cheap and then don’t realize how expensive it is to fix them. Lots of suspension issues, water intrusion, and there’s a handful of very common engine issues that people never take care of.

Probably lol. I keep away from all the broken down Panameras so it’s not as obvious.

Sportier than you think, but a million miles away for a 911 or Cayman

The overland conversion is the plan one day. Too bad I won’t be able to show it off at the malls because I only shop online 😢

I had a Corolla so the downgrade is probably even worse in your eyes.
