? Way better than the All Road IMO. If you really wanted to jump down to one car, this kinda hits the nail on the head with the utilitarian + uniqueness + some fun + some quickness.
I feel like you're far too bent on this rotor thing... I don't remember ever needing to replace rotors on any car I've owned other than the , which was only due to track use. Also, there's no NAPA/Rock Auto option?
They're 2-piece rotors, specifically made for the Polestar. No cheaper aftermarket options exist - OE rotors are $530 each from FCP Euro. And due to the pad compound, they do wear.
I still bet you wouldn't own long enough to need a set.[user not found] wrote: ↑Fri Aug 30, 2019 12:17 pmGo ahead, google it.D Griff wrote: ↑Fri Aug 30, 2019 11:47 am

Agreed on the black. I'll never ever own another black vehicle again.

This thread makes my head hurt. The Move has any potential purchases paused, and Griff already knows my feels, but it’s these.

Well now that your daily commute will be a dragon run during lunch and nothing more, may as well get an ND2.

Truthfully, I'm not sure what he car situation will end up looking like us. Might try the 1-car lyfe for a little while. A fun car that she can drive on occasion, and maybe an upgraded SUV thing that can tow. If she could/would learn the ways of it would certainly open up lots of options.

Plus, I like the quirk of the Chubman.
Ultimately I won't do anything. All pipedreamz at this point. Jeep is sticking around for a while.

He's super interested in the new JCW clubbie instead of an outback, just not $40k+ interested.
Think he's banging sl00ts

No clue. Still hasn't been built yet, so I think I'm getting screwed. I'm thinking I'll be lucky to have it before Halloween at this point. Program says to expect the vehicle in 8-12 weeks, which 8 weeks is Sept 30 and 12 is October 31.

Oh, totally. That was a huge motivator in picking it up. We won't miss any camping trips now.
But I'm not taking it wheeling...at least not without She won't even let me drive it on the street because it's "her baby".
whatever. At least she loves it more than any other vehicle she's had since we've been together.
