Oh yeah. A car shows your social status and you want to impress others. If you drive an expensive car, of course women will want to be your girlfriend.
I wonder what his father drives? Did he also give his mother cookies because he didn’t have the correct car to impress?

I got my girlfriend partially because I drove a 91 Accord in almost mint shape, not in spite of. She realized I value and take care of things and don’t just throw them away because I’m bored or “they’re old, I want new”. Green flag.

my ‘new’ car is four years newer than my older car
I’ve had my older car for like seven years now
the jump from ~2012 to whatever my next car is will either be an even bigger relative step backwards in age, or be huge because of how many years of vehicles are simply not an option due to shitty tech, touchscreens, bad UI design, and LED headlights

I’m trying to fix up my parents old 01 Toyota sequoia. Gonna use it as our family vacation vehicle. 14mpg, but seats 8 with trunk space and a hitch cargo thingy. Split the gas between 6 ppl and plenty of room for everyone.
Plus there’s actually room to work on the vehicle and no proprietary computer stuff that needs to be done at the dealer.

How fuck is it possible? I drive not that old Kawasaki Vulcan S from 2014 and I just can’t keep up with the repairs.
