wackyteen 07/13/22 11:22:01 AM #101:	omniryu posted... I just saw a video on that.... that is Hella tough to do. Design wise it make sense but you have people who travel... alot. It's only feasible in smaller size countries anyways or countries that have fast, consistent well-funded and well-maintained public transportation. Its basically an impossibility in America because outside of the Major cities, public transit is barely existent. It's why flying is a top way to get around the country. Also, not for nothing, but there's nothing quite like having a car and the freedom to go wherever you want, whenever you want, doing whatever you want, for however long you want, only limited by the money in your bank account or the amount of debt you're willing to assume. --- The name is wackyteen for a reason.

Blade_Trinity 07/14/22 1:19:49 AM #106:	I'm not seeing the problem here. If you don't want the optional extras then don't pay for them. That's how it's always been lmao. If you get one of these cars through a company car scheme, the tax you pay on it will be lower, then you could upgrade the car yourself while still paying the same amount of tax. --- Foxtrot Oscar <cite>Blade_Trinity posted [p:966559918] in BMW now ch...
