The most common question in our Slack is: “Should I buy this?” Usually, it’s David, but we all have our weaknesses. David is obviously obsessed with balancing out his fleet of new-to-him cars with some old rusted iron. Jason somehow manages to find increasingly obscure Volkswagens that the average car person wouldn’t even recognize (“Oh, a Courier!“). Mercedes seems to want to purchase a motorcycle every week and Thomas, as we’ll find out, has a soft spot for German cars. For my part, I have about as hard a time resisting European Fords as The Bishop has resisting the siren call of the ponies. I realize the last bit there isn’t a car thing but, please, don’t talk about horse racing around The Bishop. With the exception of SWG, who is constantly flipping cars, we talk about buying cars way more than we actually buy cars. That changed this week.

I’ll reveal the first car today because it’s safely purchased and titled. I’ll let you guess at the other two because one is still semi-theoretical and the other one, though we’ve agreed on a price, hasn’t been technically purchased yet. Let’s start with the one that happened.

Mazel Tov Thomas!

The ruckus was “The Detroit Auto Show.” Also, Thomas did not, for the record, kill a guy. He’s innocent! (Tommy Lee Jones voice “I don’t care“).

That’s a good ass dibs.

I love those Crossfires so much. SWG has the best, and worst, taste.

Here’s a slightly easier one and this is the one that, technically, David has not purchased yet. He hasn’t even agreed to purchase it yet:

That should be pretty easy to figure out. There are a lot of clues there.

This final one is a car that we’ve worked out a deal for, but we really don’t want to reveal it until it’s safely in our hands.

Any guesses?
