Halloween candy! omnomnomnom
 
Holy shit that's a good deal. If anyone happens on something like that and just doesn't happen to have 10 g's, drop me a line, because I might just jump on it for the hell of it. Now that I have my winter ride, next up is a summer toy.

Speaking of winter ride, turns out the Buick Enclave I was going to buy had a lien on it. Decided to go with something smaller and more reliable.

It cost much more than $9000 unfortunately.
 
Actually the Buick is pretty close to on par in terms of interior fit and finish, but yeah the Lexus is pretty nice, and it should last for however long I need it. Just did the credit app again so hope to get it tonight or tomorrow.
 
What the fuck ever. When I was considering the Enclave the buzzword was "what are you, 70 years old"? At this point apparently Jeep YJ's are for 20 year old girls. I will never understand why people are so eager to attach stereotypes to cars.

The thing is essentially a nicer, more upscale version of the Highlander. It has a tow package, a roof box, and blizzaks. Hence it will get me up to a ski hill in comfort and quiet and do it with reasonable gas mileage. Case closed.
 
J.D. knows his stuff.

It's a nice ride. I think with it being a luxury model of Toyota, it'll last you forever, if you plan on keeping it forever.

Beauty of a ski mobile
 
Actually I'm not sure I've ever met this mythical "soccer mom" creature (I don't live in the suburbs of course), but anyone I've ever met who could be remotely connected to that sterotype drove a minivan. Usually a toyota sienna or a dodge caravan.
 
They only come out between the hours of 3:30 till about 7 (or dusk). Usually in some sort of jeans and a sweatshirt stating their child's sports team or wearing sweats and said sweatshirt.

They're usually on their cell phones with God knows who, and driving around gnarly.

Sometimes spotted in McDonalds drive-thrus after the 7pm hour.
 
Good luck finding one in Kensington.

You'll have to head to south to pick one up.

You can bring her to Julio's on Saturday night.
 
I make more money then both your parents combined, I know my shit and know exactly what I bought so shut the fuck you you ugly ass goon
 
Actually, last time we were at Julio's for Freshtival Tanner's mom was partying with us, that was awesome.
 
Wait, you mean outside the fact that it's a great all around vehicle for all seasons and 99% of all road conditions, reliable, good on gas, comfy with a nice ride and good looks as well??? You're totally right- all that lame shit is, like, wicked stupid. JD should stop being such a bitch and buy a Lambo already so 15 year old boys would want to blow him. That would be the shit! PROPS FOR KEEPING IT SO REAL, BRO!

;)

 
The next time you drive down the highway count how many lexus suv's you see with 30-55 year old women driving them, its a stereotype because its true. The key demographic for these cars are well off mothers with young children

By no means am I saying its a bad car, or that it would make a bad ski vehicle...I was just puzzled by the idea of a (single/young?) guy buying a brand new rx350
 
What else would I get? BMW and Mercedes are more expensive and not at all reliable, and expensive to repair to boot. I liked the Lexus's ride better than the MDX, and it costs less. The FX35 is awesome but pretty small and very stiff to drive. The Edge is still a Ford and even with all the gadgetry they've added (which admittedly is pretty cool) the ride wasn't on par. Nothing else competes.
 
Oh and the CX9 Grand Touring, for all the hype the reviewers gave it, feels really cheap inside. Just not that great an environment.
 
I just looked it up...and found the exact same Porsche over here in the Netherlands for a mere 30,000 in euros so that's roughly 41,000 dollars......I pay like 4 and a half times as much....

DAMN EUROPEAN TAXES ON MOTORIZED VEHICLES!
 
God you're an asshole......litterally the only member of NS I would actually wish death on. I truly mean that.
 
Sure thing guy. Can't wait to see what happens after the first time it needs an oil change or brake job. what about the new transmission at 50,000?
 
Good deal. Unfortunately, it's still a Boxster. If you're gonna buy a Porsche, save the money until you can afford a real one.
 
Oh. When I lived in Ontario, there were like 9 or 10 of them in a city of 40,000 people. In the city I live in now there are like 3 that I know of and Kelowna has like 110,000 people.
 
There's at least two on every major campus in Calgary.

But that's calgary...

Golden has 1. with 3500 people.

I would be pumped to be in the states, and have a timbit or too
