Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 19hI haven’t interacted with physical cash in so long I almost thought we had a $25 bill for a second It kind of makes more sense, like the dollar is divided into quarters why not divide $100 by 4? 000
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 22hApparently it’s just completely possible and common some dumbass customer service rep or w/e issues you car insurance based off a generic template that doesn’t comply with your state’s laws, and that’s why some states are so picky about the formatting of their insurance cards? I hate this country 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 29/09/2026States where the bill of sale on a lease has to list the lessor as the buyer AND the trade in has to be listed make no sense. The leasing company isn’t trading the car in! If you’re going to be that autistic about ownership, fucking commit to it 000

Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Every day I learn something like the legal term for farm trucks registered for off road usage (at least in Florida) is “goat” Washing my goat (harvest season is over) 010
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 28/09/2026God I kinda wish Apple would play hardball and tell GM like no digital key support, no native Apple Music for their infotainment, regular Bluetooth connectivity to iPhones is going to be hobbled in weird ways, etc, unless they support CarPlay. 120
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 27/09/2026[not upset at all] I’m not a numbnuts! My nuts are actually very sensitive. One of the lowest pain tolerances of any man ever even. 140
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Wait what, are there no plug in hybrid sedans or hatchbacks besides the Prius left? I figured I should do my due diligence and research those since they also qualify for CO’s EV tax credits. But I think there’s actually fewer options than pure EVs?? 100
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Honestly why the hell is Colorado so generous with EV incentives when my impression is that it’s just hard to do things because of the balanced budget requirement? They’re actually increasing the innovative vehicle tax credit next year and increasing the MSRP threshold so more vehicles are eligible 210
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026If I successfully extract $12k in government rebates towards a new car by buying an old beater to trade in and stacking two tax credits, it will be my proudest accomplishment as a “churner” but also kinda make me want to quit since I’m def being nudged lol 010
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It’s crazy how much free money from the government to buy a car is making me hate the government because of all the cliffs in the programs 😩 The VXC program has to be administered through a qualified CO dealer and Slate doesn’t seem like they’ll have any so I basically can’t consider one. 120
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Fucking dealers. I know that new vehicles with more than 1500 miles have to be titled (to the dealer) in Colorado before they can be sold. There’s a dealer with a few Bolts used as loaners with a bigger discount. I asked them if they all have less than 1500 miles OR if there’s an exception to the 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026What is with all these posts about a lesbian bar. I don’t care if lesbian lawyers want their own association. They can do whatever they want. 020
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026You ever want to cry thinking about how you have absolutely no personality 130
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Yellow is NOT my color but I would 100% drive a yellow Chevy bolt because it kinda looks like a pikachu 010
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 25/09/2026God I need a job that can let me completely take my brain off cars. I’m too sucked into car world. I just watched a YouTube short from an Ohio dealer and they made an offhand comment about a plate transfer reducing the feed on a deal that 100% isn’t allowed under OH’s plate transfer rules and now 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Friendly reminder that DMV clerks are basically the most Hitler of them all. Literally maintaining the central record of who owns what private property AND issuing the IDs the government uses to track us. It’s THE nexus of capitalism and fascism. 260
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Louisiana has the most insane car titles. If you have a co buyer, you have to share the one line. But we got space for TWO witnesses, a notary, then ANOTHER notary FOR THE WITNESSES. Notaries are already professional witnesses basically!! What is this nonsense for 001
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 24/09/2026🎶it’s my pimped out no loads refused cum dump and I’ll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry if I want to You’d cry if your load was refused too 🎶 000
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 23/09/2026I think if I ever got a white Chevrolet I'd have to refer to it as the "Uzbek special" ever since I learned that reddit factoid that GM has a partnership with the Uzbek government that granted them a monopoly so 90% of cars are white Chevrolets. 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 21/09/2026There are cheaper cartridges (with less ink) but lmfao. Ink costs about as much as my printer. I hate the razor and blades model!! 020
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 18/09/2026I’m crashing out at how hard it is to find this fucking plastic bolt the dealership lost on my car. Fucking these fucking incompetent fucking assholes. I have so far only been able to find a delisted UK EBay listing for a bundle of belly pan hardware for a different car that also has what I need 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I don’t think I’ve ever seen even the worst, most forgetful dealers forget the VIN of the trade in on the bill of sale. Except it happens ALL THE TIME with RV/trailer dealers. I don’t get it. Is it just less intuitive those have VINs and titles? But it’s the title clerks doing the paperwork… 000
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 17/09/2026It’s helped me way more than it hurt me but I do NOT get why authorized user accounts impact your credit. I’m just bitter I have to wait a month for it to finally report that my parents took me off after they ran up a big balance that impacts my credit when I might need to use my credit but 100
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 17/09/2026I hate how many cars I see these days I’m like “ugh why do they have to give EVs such fugly “futuristic” styling” and then I notice the tailpipe. I swear cars just keep getting uglier and uglier 110
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I wish CO had even just like a $1000 used EV tax credit. Stupid fucking gas prices driving up used EV prices while GM is highly incentivizing the Bolt and CO has an EV tax credit, it's genuinely only like $3-$4k between the used EVs I would actually buy. I need someone to smack me upside the head 100
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Cheap, modular/customizable, repairable, to you think the Slate truck will be able to chip away at Toyota’s market share 040
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Fist pumping in the air I am glad to see the New England DMV weirdness shouted out. But I’m also curious exactly what is going on. He says MA dealers suck because of a reduced ability to buy “in or out of state”. I second that, MA is superrrrrr annoying if you’re a resident youtu.be/Yb6ivpA32Uw?... 100

Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Why did he decide on $73 specifically. That feels like an oddly specific number. $70 or $75 I'd assume he just thought that felt right as a nominal sum. $73 feels like there's a story behind it. 020
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 10/09/2026California is so woke even the Republicans do the “abolish X” thing where “abolish” means “reform and supporting something that implies the existence of something like X” Who is issuing the $73 registrations if not the DMV!! 020
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I can’t take it. The dealer I took my car into for the recall said I needed an alignment and quoted me SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS for one. So obviously I took it to a third party shop. My alignment is fine they couldn’t adjust anything if they wanted. The dealer didn’t measure it at best. 100
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Level of autism: pulling out my phone at the dealership when they ask for my VIN to pretend I don’t have it memorized 031
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 07/09/2026If I paid ~$500 in travel expenses to make a weekend out of traveling to Minnesota to buy a Chevy Bolt, I would still save ~$900-1000 compared to buying from a CO dealer 💀 I think the tax credit probably causes this? 220
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 06/09/2026-please somebody shoot me I really shouldn’t be dissatisfied enough with my car to start researching financing pre approvals 💀 -is this a joke 😭 I know compounding is powerful but if you have $150k at Chase I feel like 0.25% is insulting?? You’d do better shopping around?? 010

Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 05/09/2026I’m lazy. What’s the actual steelman argument that Flock is more dangerous/harmful/etc than the generic concept of license plate readers being posted at various intervals? 000
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Is it a pretty safe bet that federal EV tax credits will come back next time there’s a Dem government? More stupid fucking bullshit with my car pushing me back towards trading it for an EV again but idk, if I can wait 2 years and get $7500 I might have to consider that. 230
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Electronic parking brakes need to be banned in the same way that those stupid fucking flush electronic pop out door handles need to be. The car industry delights in death though so 000
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I’m so mad. Every fucking body shop was like “we can’t really do estimates through just pictures please bring it in” and then I get here and the guy spends 2 seconds taking pictures before going back inside to a computer 010
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 04/09/2026How much of this is because of the fallout to Dieselgate specifically Especially since this is NO2 120
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 03/09/2026I'm crying at including fire truck makers next to Google. Big Fire Truck has earned the ire of everyday Americans on the same scale as Silicon Valley giants and we desperately need a populist movement that recognizes this. 010
Peanut 🌻 @pnut.bsky.social · 03/09/2026It's kinda weird to me that not even the strictest states care that if you sign a lease agreement that says it will be assigned to X and Y specific lessor/lienholder, but the manufacturer uses different entities in the registration state, they just go w/that and don't require a new lease agreement 100
