Can’t say, unfortunately. Would this be your first time with one of these brands? I bought an Audi a couple years ago and even with some forewarning, fell victim to sticker shock with the first repair that wasn’t covered under warranty. I think it was like $1500 parts and labor to fix a headlight bulb that blew out the part next to it as well. Coming from the early 2000s Japanese car I had before where that was $15 at the parts store and 10 minutes with a screwdriver, that was...unpleasant.

Maybe I’m weird because sure, I *can* afford it, I just am second-guessing whether I care enough about “luxury” to buy another.

Yes it’s my first time with these brand

So...seems like shut downs are headed our ways. Why are schools requiring us to come in?

Not to mention- when I brought this to my principals attention he said I might have to take Covid leave. Covid leave only lasts so long- correct? The. What do I do?

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?

I have an ALP. It’s so much fun.

So the Audi dealer gave a quote of approx $900 for upcoming maintenance on my A4 (which is basically just an oil change and a bunch of dealer recommended "inspections"). I think the quote is outrageous but i don't know how to go about finding independent Audi mechanics. Thoughts/tips?

I was amused

I signed a car lease on 7/15. The car is ready but the dealer is still waiting for the plates to give me the car (in my state, he is not allowed to release the car with temporary plates). My first lease payment is almost due and I didn’t take possession of the car yet. is this normal? what should I do?

Looking for a used AWD SUV ~$20k price point, what would you recommend? Ideally 2012 or later with under 100k miles. Reliability and low lifetime maintenance costs are number 1 priority.

What things *can you negotiate when purchasing a new car? What things *should you negotiate always? Any differences in negotiation approach when buying used? Seems like I can afford considerably less, given the current interest rates 😭 Currently financing a car at 1.9% and it's killing me to buy, but I've had nothing but issues with the used car I bought.

How reliable is Lexus and is maintenance outrageously expensive? Considering an RXh at some point and I’m hesitant after being burned on crap reliability and expensive repairs with Audi
