You stated a $15k disparity in them w/ 1 at dealership, & 1 private party. I'm droppin you a link below to a "lite" version of 'Blackbook'. You can use it to evaluate ea cars price vs their 3yr disparity. B/B was "da chit" for many yrs, before 'Manheim' came along. Or if you find yet another...

Posted these screen grabs elsewhere. 1st is from 'Bureau of Labor Statistics'. Seemed appropriate on this thread as well.

Ironically, I found drivers in California to be considerably better than most of the other places/states I've lived in. At least thats how we saw it, when living in Southern Cali, & San Diego. Somethin else may be awry in California. 🤔

The state I lived in for ~17yrs, let's one segment of the population go after a traffic incident, without any punishment or tickets/fines. Usually when they are involved in an accidentvor violation, of no seriousinjuries, as they have no drivers license or insurance to put into actionable...

Bureau of Statistics data below was aggregated to create this chart, for a youhoo news article. So if insurance providers are not canceling pple to mitigate risk, than they're hitting them by up/over 20%, on paid premiums. 👇 chart is for the #'s from past 12 months. Y over Y is why it looks...

Normally I'd hav very little faith in outlets like Yahoo news, but the wife sent me this, & it looks like the big picture may be legit. The article is supported by data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, & aligns wuth what I am seeing in my own auto insurance. Theres another component...

My favorite thing about electric vehs is that they do not share in the burden of maintaining the roads, streets, highways & bridges. Yeah! :sarcasm ☝ for the humor impaired: Btw OP, IMPAIRED DRIVER legislation coming in 2026 (disguised as Drunk drivin law, to keep pple from complaining about...

We used to clean them on our race engines that ran leaded fuel w/ a 4 wire O2 sensor thats were not designed for lead additive to begin with. Its not a very long lasting endeavor, but those Bosch brand sensors were spendy. This may be of little help, but you might decide to try. We used a...

The 2 best performing cars in ~60yr history of the Ford Mustang legacy, at there time of production, are called Shelby. What other options would you suggest? Its not braggin, or arrogant, to say the truth about the capabilities of any vehicles, including these last 2 Shelby branded cars...

Getting your full 3/36 - 5/60 & the owners kit is certainly a perk, vs buyin same yr car w/~1000mi on it, thats only has a ~1yr/2 left on the B2B warranty. You did well negotiating, & it will be pretty exciting to drive that baby off the lot in a few days!

@MAGS1 Didn't read everything above, but as stated earlier. It's easy to pulley a '20 w/o tune, vs '21-'22.. Look for that. Check date codes on tires for match, to grasp any replacement, unless they are already documented elsewhere. Look at the lower coolers up front for excessive fin lay...

Most visual minded pple look at 2021, 2022, & 2023, & then judge the numbers, from energy to auto insurance cost. Then they cast blame based on what they see. Not on what they're Told. Im told by leadership, "Americans are doing GREAT!" Perhaps we should go bk to ~1789, to start the blame...

"Americans are doing Great👍!!" :Quote: Taterhead, past ~2yrs

Its hardly even about insurance companies gleaning thru your driving data, cell info, texts, facial features, personal data - which is all clearly growing quite rapidly. It's likely even more about selling your life inside your vehicle to marketing companies that want to know everything, from...

Sam Walton did this in the early 1990s at the few locations he tested out, called 'Hyper Marts'. The H/M in Topeka Kansas was several acres under roof, & had car dealers inside. Clearly didn't work out, as Walmart didn't build more than 1 or 2 of these mega stores as I recall.

Speaking of tracking. For those who called or are thinking of calling Ford Pass to cancel the data reaping. Once they claim to have closed your account, there is a caveat that one should be aware of. F/P tells you in a follow up email that you must do a Master Reset on your Sync screen, to...

Asking if Ford made 2 identical cars, & 1 has the Shelby name.?? tf? This is as silly as asking, if you could live on the moon, would you? Nobody is living on the Moon for very long, because the radiation in space degrades your mitochondria in the bodys cells, at a very rapid rate. Space...

Blackbook (paywall subscription service- updated monthly-or was in past) & Manheim Auction (updated ea week, from auctions around the USA, & is also an expensive paywall subscription service) Most dealers I've dealt w/that sell higher end stuff, tend to use this one nowadays. These 2 ☝️...
