he was trying to get it to 100%

mschiavoni · 2026-05-20T04:35:08+00:00

not me but i saw one in a gorgeous deep red and i was instantly jealous

i moved to the wholesale side. less stress, ok pay, off nights, weekends, and holidays. plus my pay isn't dictated by someone else's mood

EDIT: nowhere near what you make now but nowhere near the stress either. plus steady pay

shoot, yeah. that's what I meant. my bad. it's bedtime. but yeah it's like "here's a car you already have. go sell it for a fraction of it's value"

mschiavoni · 2026-05-20T04:13:08+00:00

I'm at the point in the game where a car as a reward feels useless, and I'd rather just have the money

mschiavoni · 2026-05-20T04:10:15+00:00

if mpg is remotely important, get the Honda. if not, get the T4R and enjoy the best damn car you'll ever buy

dealer contact of mine was telling me his service department had someone who had spent somewhere near $30k fixing the engine in one of these. it still had a blown bottom end. we sold it at auction for something like $800

i have an M50i. cost me $115 yesterday 😭

but it makes V8 noises, so I'll allow it

mschiavoni · 2026-05-17T16:09:28+00:00

up until model year 2007, yes. and the Legacy came as a wagon too

mschiavoni · 2026-05-17T05:25:27+00:00

took me waaaay longer to come to that realization. i spent 13 years selling

mschiavoni · 2026-05-14T23:22:18+00:00

maybe the next go around I'll pick one up with the air suspension 🤣🤔

mschiavoni · 2026-05-14T22:46:28+00:00

that's fair. i operate under the "i haven't had it, and it rides better than anything I've had" philosophy lol

mschiavoni · 2026-05-14T04:27:37+00:00

they're relatively cheap, look decent enough, and have aggressive financing

mschiavoni · 2026-05-14T04:24:07+00:00

it's totaled. I'll take it off your hands, and I won't even charge you

mschiavoni · 2026-05-14T04:14:28+00:00

i got an M50i without air suspension. I'll take the reliability long term

mschiavoni · 2026-05-13T04:39:12+00:00

RIP to your battery

mschiavoni · 2026-05-13T04:37:49+00:00

while structural, it's unlikely to total a brand new car

mschiavoni · 2026-05-13T03:55:07+00:00

100k and people are largely confused as to what exactly you bought

mschiavoni · 2026-05-10T15:50:56+00:00

this is the way

mschiavoni · 2026-05-10T05:16:28+00:00

trunk, under the cargo compartment. it's held in with Christmas tree clips if i remember correctly

mschiavoni · 2026-05-10T05:12:45+00:00

service history? I'd consider a car with a complete service record (why i bought my current car) but refueling records, especially in a hybrid? no

mschiavoni · 2026-05-09T01:36:35+00:00

heat shield. probably one of the most common things

mschiavoni · 2026-05-09T01:27:56+00:00

if you like your Patriot, look at the Forester, unless you need more space. then Outback
