    My Poor, Innocent Jetta. Totaled or Not? You Be the Judge.

    I suppose I could sentence the police but that would probably be counterproductive for me. Stay tuned sports fans.

    My Poor, Innocent Jetta. Totaled or Not? You Be the Judge.

    Thanks for this. That was my thinking. I'm curious what sort of labor and efforts to correct. It's not a simple 'rear end' or front bumper etc. Heading over for lighted pictures in a few minutes.

    My Poor, Innocent Jetta. Totaled or Not? You Be the Judge.

    Yes, it was late at night and dark. Better pictures likely forthcoming. I'm thinking about what else to look for and ask in the repair process that one couldn't tell from a simple look. But maybe too hard to do from just these pictures. I appreciate your deep wisdom, insight, and the thought...

    Thoughts on this high mileage 2020 MAZDA CX-9

    For the right purpose, an interesting find. I wouldn't do it - but wouldn't be purposed for what I do.

    Recommend a Used Pickup Truck

    Wife and I buying a project house. We'll either turn it into our new place, or flip it, but it's going to be a fun year ahead. Probably going to add a truck to help in the effort. A midsize with decent bed is the starting point but fairly open to ideas, suggestions, and recommendations. Not...

    Time for new tires

    Beautiful new Nokians! The "Ones" are on my shortlist to replace the Entyres currently on the Jetta. Would love an update on them as you break them in.
