90% of my threads are shitposting. Especially compared to the content gods of Melon and the Hound.

When we went to WFH, they locked down our laptops. I'm only posting here because I was given admin rights for a day to install some plugins, and I went and installed Chrome, so I can bypass the "message board" block on Edge.

Officially down to just the Cucktrek now. CT Ram is gone.
Still really like the Cucktrek, and it manages to impress everyone that gets in it. Even my old man, who HATES Japanese cars for no real reason admitted that it was a pretty ideal little thing for us.

I liked the idea of the CT a lot, it even looked the part. I guess that the engine and FD gearing combo turned out to not be the best combo
Would love to follow the poor truck's fate. Who knows how many owners will be left before it's left to rust in a field somewhere?

Right, in ten or more years of course, but I'm curious to see what fate lies for this CT and how many times it getsmax225 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 5:05 pmAin't nobody leaving a 40k in the field for another decade.Tarspin wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 5:04 pm

The Pentastar was supposed to make it reasonable/economical to run, but when it sucked as much gas as a Hemi...................

For fun I checked what they wanted to buy it (which was an option). $37k When I took it to the I mentioned to the guy that they should have no problem selling it and he said "the greedy bastards won't let us have it, they think they can get more for it in their own". The dude was DOWN on the company when I told him I was corp and resigned he said "I'm jealous". THIS DUDE WORKS FOR AN INDEPENDENT DEALER. They've got new Grand Cherokee 3 rows (a vehicle I was responsible for) stacking up, and I asked him how they're selling and he said "they're too fucking expensive, nobody wants a base Jeep that costs the same as a BMW."

JGC-L is pretty can't say whether it'll work because there is just so much noise in the market right now... and customers are willing to pay 26k for a mirage.... Paying 62k for jeep with a nice interior and a 20 y/o engine doesn't seem that off-putting. Because it competes with minivans that sticker for about 50-55 but sell with 20k markups.
