Naw the new dampers and square 255 setup was a huge improvement. It's been dead reliable. Analog gauges bro!

My dream 2024 landscape involves not spending a dime on home improvement or cars. Wife wants a Defender

Yeah. Cool truck. BUT, as has been thoroughly sliced and diced by Max, the straight 6 is overly complex in a brand known for its LACK of reliability, and the V8 is preposterously expensive. Fuck everything is expensive. A Brostang with a Tremec transmission is 62 thousand dollars. What a time to be alive.

The Defender is a looker though. I may be able to put it off until 2025. See above.

Last i check a mustang gt is a blue collar sports car, $62k grand is not a reasonable blue collar price to me.

The 6 is "ok" technically a straight 6 is basically the most reliable engine type one can buy... but unfortunately that one comes with an electric supercharger and a turbocharger... so far they are holding up...

The cost of operating a cheap defender (75k msrp) is $1800 a month for the first 4 years... and that to me is just insane. They are starting to show up used for reasonable pricing... for ex you can get a V8 for about 20k less than new... which is

nearly 6 figures still...

Also I hear that the V8 is not that much noticeably faster to drive than the i6.. however it makes all the noises so... yea.. that's worth something.

I'm just OVER spending money right now. I just want to lie low in my Kirkland Signature gear and enjoy my life in 2024.

December is a BAD month......every mother's son wants their money. Insurance premiums, RE taxes, on and on and on. I feel like I'm crawling out of the laundry at Shawshank.
