    EV discussion - hate or love?

    One thing I liked about the Cayenne, and Q7 - not sure if X5 has it - was the rear seats could slide forward or back for more cargo space. I would disagree on performance. The Cayenne S is still sub 4 0-60. putting it pretty close to a M60.

    EV discussion - hate or love?

    New car wise ( can't speak to older gens) We found the Cayenne larger in the right areas over the Q7 and X5. Cayenne sits lower than X5 but backseat feels much larger (I think it is wider). We tested them all with a car seat. We don't need a third row so it was kinda useless in the Q7. Tech is a...

    No different than the Q7. Based on my research, they are quite a bit more reliable. (especially compared to the non SQ7 engine). Take it to a certified independent. I use one for my 911, dealer wanted 1k for oil and brake fluid. They charged me $400.

    Have you looked at Cayenne's? A bit pricier but we both loved the new Cayenne compared to the SQ7. I had a pretty base one for a few days as a rental and I preferred that over the loaded SQ7.

    While riding it I was already thinking about putting matte ppf over the gloss black lol… that would help a lot with the glare.

    Agreed on SQ7. We got sorta close to buying one. I didn’t like all the piano black touch screen stuff everywhere. Hated the screen for AC controls. At 110k it didn’t feel anything worth that. Also felt slow to me but everything feels slow these days lol

    Get the manual. The car is built for a stick, and feels like it should have one... even though the PDK is great.

    Boat 2017 AR210 - Tampa Bay, FL - $27,000

    Bump! Let's get this thing gone!

    For his requirements he may have to do some work. He can add brakes for under 1k. The car is well under his 100k threshold. Side note, I never knew they published tow rating for brake or no brake trailers.

    Should handle 19-21' boats no problem. I believe 2kwik has a 19'

    Even if you get the tow rating, how far do you have to tow? Anything further than 100 miles round trip - good luck. What about a Kia EV9?

    EV discussion - hate or love?

    The way EVs are depreciating - I wouldn't even consider buying one. Lease is the way to go, they are giving them away. I've seen some stupid deals. I saw a Nissan Leaf for $50/month yesterday. Tacans were getting 30k off, Lyrics were like $299 a month. "I really like the idea of not standing...

    I wouldn't say the H2 sucked anymore than the 1/2 tons trucks of the time did. The expectations were too high for it. It was simply a Silverado marketed wrong.

    You leave out quality. The Hyundai's are decent on the surface but the Audi is a whole another tier. I have no data to back this up, but while both will depreciate like a boulder in the ocean, I would think the Hyundai depreciates faster. Also subjective the Audi looks 100x better.

    Boating Weather for the intercoastal FL

    Honestly just test your limits. There are parts of our ICW that aren’t even phased by 20+ mph winds. Wind direction is a big factor as well. West winds down in Miami are favorable.

    1.8l motor cost?

    I'm trying to sell a boat - I see what's out there. The market is in the tank compared to 18 months ago. And yes on the 20k off, according to the mailer I just got.

    1.8l motor cost?

    There is a problem if a county tax worker has a boat worth 90k more than XXX. Those guys don't make that kind of money. Anyways that is BS, the boat market is in the tank. I just a letter 10 minutes ago my local dealer offering 20k off new boats. Can you register in Montana like the luxury car...
