Tacoma too expensive to drive?

With current global events, I'm slowly starting to recognize the place for EV..
In the trash; send it!!!!

 

Meh, when the prices go up, I just bring out the econobeater (94 Corolla). When they go back down I bring out the land cruiser and Tacoma... Gotta be flexible these days.

 

NorthStar System?

 

2008 was a magical year. Gas prices skyrocketed, housing bubble fucked everyone over, and nobody wanted a pickup. I bought a 2008 Dodge for 15k right before Chrysler decided to fold half the dealerships in town. I walked away with it after plunking 11k cash and a beat to shit Frontier as my trade. 90 dollar fill-ups didn't hurt so bad then.


2022 is a magical year too. Gas is skyrocketing, housing is skyrocketing again, property tax is about to fuck everyone over, and you can't find a pickup anywhere in town that's going for MSRP.



Maybe 2023 will be a good time to buy.

 

If it was possible, I'd ride mine year-round, but where I'm located, I only get about 4-5 months of ridable weather a year... as I'm typing this, it has snowed 5 inches in the last 4 hours...

 

One of the biggest issues is many people don't have a place to plug in at home or work. Plus, you really need 220V since 120V will take all day to fully charge.

 

lol careful around here talking like that. These pseudo-intellectual discount Dave Ramseys are going to tell you those trucking companies should have budgeted for this! Oh a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic? Housing crisis? Historic inflation? Skyrocketing fuel costs? Potential WW3? You’ve got to budget for these everyday things!

 

check your quote above

 

We import oil, not gasoline. Nearly all gasoline sold in the US is refined here.

 

That's it. And he's 91 years old and won't give up the car, so we only let him wash it. Gets incredible mpg now.

 

David Ramsey is a freakin' hypocrite and a flippin' idiot to boot. Follow his teachings and be poor for the rest of your life.

 

So being prepared or educated is a bad thing?
Who is David Ramsey? I'm not even gonna look it up.

 

I've already had to pick up a second job to curb the effects of high fuel costs. You guys go subscribe to my OnlyFans, new content daily:

 

The two smoker stink. Not a lot better in this world than the smell of that at 6am on a powder day!! If my girl wouldn't hate me forever, I'd bottle it and use it as literal cologne!

 

I honestly think my 99 Vmax 600sx triple might just get worst MPG than my truck lol.

 

That's exactly what they are hoping you will think.

 

I don't know if everyone here is younger than I expected or just has short term memory. We're going to be alright guys!

 

Still a big issue. Soon to be resolved. Many incentives and rebates for Condos, apartments, and Townhomes from the state of NJ to install chargers but they just aren't doing it yet.

 

Sorry, false.

 

I have an 02 Civic and get 30mpg. The LandCruiser....9-10 mpg
