My all time favorite car has been my Chevy Tahoe.  Big Red has over 200,000 miles and outside of needing a new trans at about 50,000 (Chevy's are infamous for needing new trans) and routine maintenance, she has been a wonderful car.  She's now been retired and sits with a big plow on her front end and does a fine job of keeping my 800 foot steep driveway free and clear of snow and ice.  I now drive  Big Good Gray ( named by my wee one)...a GMC Yukon.  Bought used from our mechanic with about 75,000 miles on him.  So far I love him, but he rides just like the Tahoe so it's all good.  I plan on getting well over 200,000 out of him too.

Griswold, you got a link to this? (Repo's are up 4 times the 5 year average, and in luxury cars, it's currently close to 10 times the average).  I'd like to read it. TY.

Popeye, I saw a car advertised recently {I think it was a Volvo}, that alerts you
that you are close enough to hit someone, it alerts you when someone is about to hit you.
 
Mine does that too.  It's the most amazing damndest thing....it has some kind of sensor or something in it....within seconds of hitting another car....my car makes a very distinctive "crunch-like" sound.
 
I tested it out a few months ago....sure as shit, it made that noise...I stepped out of my car....right as rain....easily $4,500.00 worth of damage.
 
(I swear I don't know how they do it?!)

it even has a detector that lets you know if someone is hiding next to your car at night.
 
Mine does THAT as well!!!!
 
The sensor is like some kind of amazing robotic thing.  You walk up to your car and if there's someone hiding by your car....seconds later your wallet is gone (who fucking THINKS of this stuff????).

 
I have seen so many new features, I would not be surprised if there are cars that will
help you locate a hot submissive using the gps.
 
There are....I have that in mine as well!!!!  Here's how it works:  You walk up to my car, you tap on the window and say these words (you have to say these words...it's like some kind of software / voice recognition type of a thing I'm guessing) "I'm a Domme....are you a 49 year old submissive?".
 
It works best though if there's a 49 year old submissive inside.

 
I want my next car to have all the bells and whistles.
 
I want my car to fold my socks.

However you dress it up popeye, Japanese cars consistently come out as the most reliable cars in the world, even in America. That is why no matter where you go in the world you see Japanese cars and not American cars or European cars. There'll always be the odd lemon that the anti-Japanese will latch onto but that doesn't nullify the experience of most owners of Japanese cars.

As for cars I like, I have a little nostalgia for the Citroen 2CV, they just don't make cars so fun to own and drive anymore. It was a design of genius. http://www.pbase.com/erichmangl/2cv

I'm looking for a Citroen H van to renovate, again something of a genius design.

Meat, I'm not "dressing it up."
I'm just reporting what I see.
Don't shoot the(reporter) messenger.
