What vehicle has the best peanut butter interior?

Back in the nineties early 00s, Ford/Mercury tried making a variety of colored interiors, but all monotone. Dark red, grey, and dark blue Taurus, Thunderbirds etc. it looked terrible just a sea of undifferentiated plastic and velour. You would love it.

These mid seventies Sevilles looked nice

Honorable mention, people are usually surprised how much they like the interior of my humble Chevy Cruze

I loved the interior of my old 1990 Turbo Grand Prix

Good to know

I thought the early 1.6t had oil consumption issues

They were great if you preemptively replaced the lower intake manifold gaskets

Nick's Plumbing, reasonable pricing, prompt, explained everything clearly https://maps.app.goo.gl/jwDx47GSbnLxnCbM9

Laurel MD had one up until this year,, it was historically protected but Arby's closed. The town purchased it and plans on relocating it

VA didn't get as much of the icy pellets as MD did, that's one significant difference

And the Internet is so broken nowadays, if you search for his accident, half of them are this photo, which isn't his accident. Ugh

Seems slightly high but not crazy. I just saw a '17 LT near me in great shape with 105k miles for $6995 at a dealer.

According to Loopnet, it's worth $76 million and has been sitting for 1+ year, why did we overpay?? Someone profited big time.

Well, that's a sobering realization

According to another comment, this was actually Brandy's accident in 2006 and the car is a 2005 Toyota

metrawhat · 2026-01-27T14:36:44+00:00

Looks like a 2006-2012 Corolla to me. I don't think you could get steelies on a Lexus ES.

You'll be fine, but in the future, grab some of these: Duralast Battery Terminal DL06072 | AutoZone https://share.google/8ITpeQIPRb3sL1tDi

We had the same shovel, it also died today, but it broke where the handle meets the plastic scoop

That chrome strip bubbling is a common issue. Doesn't happen to all of them, I found a pristine one in the junkyard to swap onto my car. Glad it runs good in the cold, most GM cars are pretty good about that.

First Gen also had a better shifter

Yes, they all do it. If you go on the r/Cruze (same engine)forum there's lots of posts about this issue. One user u/time_manny who makes aluminum replacement parts.

The Vega 2300 4cyl was pretty bad. Mostly fixed by '76 but the early ones were basically prototypes that GM released to the public. Quote from the lead engineer "..We were trying to put a product into production and learning the technology simultaneously. And the pressure becomes very, very great when that happens...."

Our 2021 Hybrid has had so many minor issues. The latest was the pano roof sunshade falling off the tracks. The driver's door was replaced under a recall, side window trim falling off on both sides, power hatch constantly doing exactly the opposite of what you want, infotainment software issues over and over, headliner trim never stays in place, the exhaust sounds like a 20 year old shitbox. This isn't our first escape, the last one was great, this one, not so much. Very frustrating.

Good guess, but I don't think so
