1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

You say that like it can't be repaired. Drop in a new motor and keep going. If you only look at the spontaneous costs you are missing the bigger picture of your costs. My preference is to buy cars at the bottom of their depreciation curve. For example we bought a 2017 Tacoma brand new, sold it 3 years later for $10k less. I bought the Range Rover for $11k, dropped $6k into it already. When I go to sell it in a couple years I'm sure I can get $10k for it, so it's a $7k loss, still not as bad as a brand new car with a warranty, and that is the worst one in my history yet. The best car I had was my leased Corolla. Sold it for more than the lease+buyout, only ever put a tire on it the day I sold it. Basically drove that car for free for a couple years.

 

Not with that attitude. You can make $300 an hour if you open up some new locations

Yea someone should’ve gone around buying up all those $1000 Land Cruisers back in 2010 when you couldn’t give them away.

I wish I could pull off the whole Deuce Bigelow routine haha

 

My worst one was my 2004 BMW 325xi CPO I bought for like $32k OTD. Bought with 36K miles on it and sold it for like $4k at 195k miles several years later. Through I must say the only thing that car needed was tie rods, tires, oil and a fuel pump once. But I also knew if the trans ever went it would be worthless basically.

 

Yeah and those were the years with a general motors trans too, so the chances of it going out were pretty high haha

 

The perfect compliment to my trypophobe protection racket

 

He sleeps so well in his stroller when we're out; thinking I should start using it when we're inside the house

 

Now that's rough! The Range Rover has depreciated $5k, every year, since it was new. Thankfully the owners before us too that in the chin.

 

Is that movie any good? I haven't seen it

 

It's like any other Rob Schneider movie, not very good, predictable, but worth a few laughs.

 

Sounds like perfect background noise for a slow code monkey day

I have spiderman 2002 on in the background right now
