Help car value ?

[Fummins]

Completely agree.

Intending to not sell it so could care less about the resale value.

I am just saying the normies dont value these machines.

Only the latest and greatest in SUV computational technologies and driver tickling assistance is desired.

And dont forget all this belly aching about car theft and cat theft.

Mirage is theft proof because the locks are manual and the cats are protected, better profits are had at the next kia.

@Fummins is it really a money pit per km?

I did the calculations one day but mirage is cheaper than flying for me per km and cheaper than the bus in Toronto.

Makes me laugh when I hear of people avoiding road trips because of "depreciation" or "increase in car maintenance".

No I was making a funny.

Poooosh the button on this purchase sooner than later please. Friendly Tire Engineer pal reminder.

P.S. there is a Japanese tire manufacturer who builds and engineers tires much the same way Toyota does cars (Even sounds oddly similar) and just so happens to build a lot of them in your size just a few miles up I-75... seriously the best LT tires in the business.

I'll consider that. However, seems a little odd to think of my Ram running on Japanese tires. Course they've mostly ran on French tires. Ran on Bridgestones for a while, those things let me down.

Does that brand you speak of make good Load Range E tires?

Bambi bashers! Ha! Been lots of Bambi bashing going on all within a couple miles of my house.

It doesn’t look like it but Bambi basher truck had an 8” lift and 37” tires(18" wheels). Now I drive a mirage.

Now I drive a mirage.

Yeah, but they're nearly identical in every way!

My blue truck has never seen as much dirt collectively, as yours has in that picture!

They sure do. They even make some Load Range F in certain sizes...

However, seems a little odd to think of my Ram running on Japanese tires.

You like and appreciate how Japanese vehicles are engineered and manufactured... why not tires?

Course they've mostly ran on French tires.

At least you know they are French... I swear not a day goes by that I don't see someone say "Only 'Merican tires for me... Michelin!"

You sure makes a great point. You must be right smart. You do have a blue hatch. I'm down with trying a set ... course that's like a 10 year obligation for me. I wonder if there are any test tires about to be thrown out?

Either way, yes, I will try them. Now let me go tirerack (check) them and make sure the cost doesn't make me wanna throw-up. I'm broke busted splintered shattered scattered covered and chunked these days. Long story.

I can't see your post about the purge valve. Been trying since yesterday and keep getting the same error message. https://mirageforum.com/forum/showth...id-Purge-Valve
