Just be aware of where you live. Carvana docked us -$858 for living in NY due to COVID (not us, but I guess people aren't looking to buy from the state itself).

Now if they would just get in a 2017/2018 lariat with 2.7lt. Hell, I’ll take an XLT if I have to. |

However it does run out of steam in the mid to upper gears when punching it on the freeway but I’ve never had issues. The 3.5lt non high output is a lagwagon but probably more optimal for towing the 20ft trailer. |

The 3.5 I drove was b2b with the 2.7. No load, just me test driving, that 3.5 was faster in a straight line. Both were impressive, wasn't expecting that kind of acceleration out of a full size truck but the 3.5 definitely was faster. I drove them in the exact same place and when I hit it in the 3.5 I was like got damn, this thing is fast. The seats were ridic, lazy-boy chairs. It's just the BOF handling which got me to walk. Like you I think the 2.7 EB is sufficient but if the price delta between the 3.5L is minimal I'd take the additional power. MPG? In a truck, like this, irrelevant to me. I get 20 in my Honduh the way I drive it and I don't care but it's not my DD. |

I’m half tempted to just pick up a bare bones XL 4 door with 3.5lt and max tow and call it good if the price is good enough. Having AC seats in my raptor will be hard to part with hence wanting a lariat. There is a low mileage platinum for $46k but don’t see the value. The massage seats are stupid |

This deal is going to just keep going on. High case count will continue until flu season then gas will be poured on the fire. Just be hardcore patient. Eventually, the pause button on these payments are going to end, and you'll see repos flood the market. It'll be the people who shouldn't have bought the vehicle in the first place, overbought, etc. That has all been on hold for months but the chickens always come home to roost. The repo men are ready to roll and will.

Wouldn’t feel bad about repo’ing all the over leveraged buyers and there expensive cars, trucks, boats, and UTV’s though. |

Stock split any one 5:1 coming up in the end August
And a stock Model 3 Performance non track package can keep up with a Porsche GT3 RS around the Nürburgring He didn't like the stock brake pads |

For reference, a stock GT3 RS does 6:56.4 around the Nürburgring. The fastest recorded model 3 time I can find is 9 minutes... Last edited by nikau; 08-14-2020 at 12:06 AM. |

I didn't say that the Model 3 can keep up with the GT3 RS the guy that has a youtube channel about driving/racing cars around the Nürburgring said that at the 12:28 mark "today we learn that the model 3 can definitely keep with the GT3 RS and can definitely go beyond that with better brakes." He has videos of him driving a Bugatti Chiron and a McLaren Senna around the ring so I would assume that he knows what he is talking about. He also has company about taxi driving people around the ring. The guy doesn't even like Tesla he was trash talking Tesla when the Model S Plaid was testing around the Nürburgring. Go complain to that funboi for his comments.

Oh my goodness this again? The ring? Some people will go to any lengths to justify their automobile purchases.

Without a doubt it's impressive to an extent that it will beat a gt3rs on a single lap on some tracks. The use of electronics to provide ultimate performance instead of a assitance / nannies full off kind of seem unfair and takes away from actual racing but thats whatever. |

the Tesla performance is only significant because it is the equiv of the Jetta from the other side of VAG. We have not seen the Tesla sports car in anything other than prototype form. Compare apples to apples when it arrives.
