$85k!


Definitely trying to capitalize on the excitement the new Bronco is bringing to the retro-styled 4x4 segment. 

It is very pretty, and in almost perfect condition, though.

Yeah, even the door trim is misaligned, just like it came from the factory!

$85k is pure madness for one of those. I can't fathom that.

You can have a decent one, with some much needed upgrades for 1/2 that.

Underneath that Dodge is an Alfa Giulietta (except the Tigershark engine is worse than the Fiat 1.4T). Take that how you like, I see it as a positive  :rofl2:
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

Those Darts sell dirt cheap at auction. I've been tempted a few times to buy one, but too concerned it will be near impossible to resell (likely scenario).

Yeah, it is an addictive thing to look online. When I do, I'm surfing into this category:
https://www.autotrader.ca/expert/20150827/used-vehicle-review-chevrolet-volt-2011-2015/

I found Volt #4 to replace Volt #3 :brkhrt: since I took the decision  :nono:  to make this move.
Volt #4 still visible on Autotrader.ca but the deal is done.
Gone but not forgotten in chronological order: 2019 Volt, 2013 Volt, 2014 Spark EV, 2012 Volt and many others before...

I'm referring to the same 2014, I don't have it yet.
I'm expecting the aspheric mirrors (I want these) to be in this week & installed before I take possession of it.
