Sam's got it covered....Brodozer engage!

I think we already have 4" and it's still coming down hard. Definitely going 4WD today.
No way, I don't identify with the brodozer gang. I roll with the jeepbros.
The golf is parked for the next week before I can get the tires swapped out. Made an appointment for Monday.

Wife gets a new car first. The Flex is around 120k, but both are paid off, so it's nice not having a car note.

Just get the passport.
It has the best off roading and towing "range". It is a superior "performance" SUV.

4Runner if you're a poor. Land Cruiser if you're not.

I'm sure the flavor of the week will change by then, but thinking JGC or T4R right now.

Never have had a trip ODO reset with the battery, in the 3 I've had with digital ODOs (04 Civic, 00 TL, 13 Flex).

Looks like used market did go up as discussed due to COVID. I was seeing '17 TLX's going for $15-17K a month ago. Now I can't find any for less than $18K

Here's a good new-ish youtube channel that delves into some industry insider data. First time in months that wholesale prices are starting to decline:

The Evo X also has 4 doors, like the Accord and TLX. Since we're repeating suggestions.

That's greater than the Pagani Zonda, Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1...you name it. THE epitome of carness.

I am realistic though. The RLX with upgraded tires still can't beat the McLaren F1. So, you can't accuse me of over-exaggeration.

Coincidentally, the McLaren F1 is still the fastest car in the world, with a N/A engine. All the subsequent records have used FI to get there.
