It appears that you made this decision carefully and that you are happy with the purchase. That's all that counts when all is said and done.

I thought I was proficient in math until I tried to make you Jeep 10 years older than it is.  :-[

Yes, this tread is epic, much like most all of your threads. Keep up the good work.


Nope, it was a 3 second decision.  That's a car auction, think too much and it's already sold....same way the stock market works.

Called the junkyard today...going to get a winch for the front for 50 bucks.  Once it's in black and cleaned up, motherfuckers will be jumping off the road hearing that 4.0 coming down the road
I had a Warn 9000 on my Wrangler.  Thing was so much fun to mess around with and got me out of some sticky situations.  That 4.0 can easily be made into a beast.

The ubiquitous Chrysler 4.0L inline-six was (and is) perhaps one of the best engines ever offered in a 4x4.



This will get you started and all are not expensive at all.  First thing though, get a K&N Air Filter.  That 4.0 breathes well and with the K&N it breathes really well and is a huge difference right off the bat.

I mostly live in a city during the week so there is no need for a car. Virtually everyone in my building leases their cars and we are all way more successful than you will ever be. We could buy up all the property in your shitty town for what one of our places costs


You live next to a massage parlor and a teahouse from the way it sounds...you prob wear flannel and boots but never chipped any wood or skin an animal.

I bet he won't even leave the house without dousing himself in something faggy like Aqua Di Gio.  He is on here literally bragging about pretending to be a metrosexual.  Something tells me he probably has a Grindr account that he logs into while eating Kale Chips.

True Adonis, what is the best way to make vegetables? I usually make them in a pot with a little olive oil.

Deep Fried.

Depends though which vegetable and what you want.  Which vegetable?

My favorite vegetables to cook are peppers, mushrooms, onions and squash.

An all-time high 31 percent of new vehicles financed in the first quarter were leased.

The average new auto loan also reached a record high $29,551 and the average length is 67 months.  Among subprime borrowers, the average new-car loan is for 72 months.

Top leased brands:
BMW (70% Leased)
Land Rover (68% Leased)
Mercedes-Benz (67% Leased)
Audi (64% Leased)

Every 6 months it seems. Odd loophole in CA law that someone with a new car had a maximum of six months to affix the issued number plate to the vehicle.

That is correct. DMV paperwork takes a long time, so if you have a new car every 6 months, you never get a plate.

But I will never drive a car that is older than 2 years, you buy a car and you could be stuck with a heap of shit.
Even buying a car outright if something goes wrong, sure a new car has a warranty but the will kick and scream and try and offload the cost to you if something goes wrong
Mine goes wrong, they dispute anything, I chuck them the keys and walk.

Most states have lemon laws to handle those situations.

I dare you to throw them the keys and walk. Your credit will be ruined and you will never lease anything ever again.

This is interesting information. I paid right around $30,000 for the compact Mazda CX3 I recently purchased. 75% of the purchase price is financed because the interest rate my credit union offered me was 1.67% for 60 months. I did consider leasing it because it's likely the car will outlive me. I generally keep a car for around 10 years.

Where I live there are a lot of the vehicles you mentioned. I suspect some of them are leased. Lately, I noticed quite a few Tesla's on the road and in parking lots nearby. Can they be leased?

We live in a time where there is a strong 'throwaway' mentality. If someone plans to keep a vehicle for only a year or two, leasing might be a good option.

In Oregon, the plates arrive in about 2 months.

This has surprising turned into one of Vince's better threads.  No thanks to him though.  Credit to TA, SF and Prime for saving this one.

I'm happy you got a good deal Vince but calm down, you got the car for under $1200, obviously there wasn't a huge demand for it that a 30 second breather would have left you vehicleless.

You're funny though.

How we feel/talk about our ride is mostly a manly endeavor. There aren't a lot of these left. Getbig is no place for twinks and girly-boys. Ugh, ugh, ugh! My car has 18" alloy wheels.... chew on that!  :D :D :D

Think about this. Driver-less vehicles are coming soon. This is bound to take all the fun out of owning a car.

Car Auctions are for profit..that's where used car dealers go to get their stuff.  There's always a fight for a vehicle that can make money.  So yes, I did have to fight for this
