Good guy car dealer adds massive markup to keep these awful vehicles off our streets
This is one of the lowest quality vehicles you can buy and some dumbass will pay the price of a house for it and use it to run over school children.
Where can I find houses for this price? That’s like half of anything near me.
yeah but free car washes for 1 year 
And unlimited nitrogen refills
Just gotta get enough for it to be an expense to the company. Same attitude I have for all you can eat buffets
I mean extremely critical support to selling this garbage at an absolutely ridiculous price to fleece whatever dumbass thinks buying a ford raptor is a good idea
Just a measly $3000/month payment for the next 8 years and this monument of American fragility is yours!
I walked away from a purchase once because they wanted to charge me $1k for some anti theft thing that I didn't want, I can't imagine buying even one of these redundant warranties or memberships.
They charge you a grand for a LoJack under the implication that it's an anti-theft feature you can use.
It's actually there so they can locate the car at any time to decline service by saying it was your fault for using the car in a way they didn't approve, and to repo the car if your payment is late.
Luckily, unlike cummunist CHINA you have the freedom to chose between one of the other 4 heredity fiefs when purchasing a car.
having worked at a captive auto lender before, every single financial product add-on is a rip-off. The only exception is brand maintenance on leases (you have to do maintenance anyway, might as well pay upfront and get a bump to your Residual Value, it pays for itself). Don't buy any anti-theft shit, any GAP insurance, any service contracts (CARS COME WITH A WARRANTY FOR FREE), etc.
I did end up getting GAP on my new motorcycle, but I did that through my bank.
The nitrogen in the car tires thing should carry the death penalty. AIR IS MOSTLY NITROGEN, FUCK OFF.
Dr Avalanche sounds like the name of a generic brand of soda
Am I reading the nitrofill add on correctly? $600 for two years of air refills, something my local shop does for free, and $200 off tire replacement? Unless you’re pushing it hard I don’t think it’ll need new tires within two years.
watches a video on the externalities of car culture and doesn't quite get the point:
"Society is paying how much for each one of these damn things? Why am I not seeing any of that money?!"
why the fuck do you need a lojack and ford "theft protection"
It's there so they can deny warranty service by saying you went on a dirt road or so they can repo the car more easily.
insurance already is theft protection lmao, it's literally just paying for nothing. If you buy it, you're basically just gambling that your car WILL be stolen in the next 2-3 years (quite unlikely)
Planet Car Wash! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀No Charge
