Housekeeping: Happy Thanksgiving 2025!
Yup, it's American Thanksgiving, so we're taking off for the long weekend.
As always, if news breaks or something else pops up, we'll post about it. Otherwise expect a quiet few days until Monday.
Be safe, don't drink and drive, don't get high and drive, and enjoy your meals/football/Black Friday.
We'll see you Monday!

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- EBFlex No....you can find plenty of used "fun" cars that are very reasonable with low miles.What does give me pause is the outrageous insurance and yearly registration fees. I shouldn't have to pay for a full year of road use when I can't use the car for half the year. Another factor is interest rates. The dolt that runs the fed is keeping them high for purely political reasons. They need to come down ASAP.
- 1995 SC I actually really like these. I love the Busso V6. And I will continue to admire them in someone else's driveway like all Alfas. I really want a 4c, but I don't quite hate myself enough
- 1995 SC I actually know a guy with one of these. Coolest Tercel ever. I don't mean anything derogatory by that.
- 1995 SC A Miata can be had for under 30. GTIs are still reasonable as is the Jetta GLI. GR86 is reasonable. Plenty of choices out there. If you look at things like the Mustang now versus even back in the 90s sure, it costs more, but it's performance envelope is also vastly higher.
- 1995 SC No. It gets great gas mileage.

Look at that guy(?) at the top of the photo... they've cloned Harpo Marx!
I've been away most of the time. My uncle in indiana is in jail still so got my cousins and we tried to spend some time with him.
