This vehicle never had cruise control anyway.

Just a kill switch?

15 years she's got me where I needed to be. Most of the time.

I don't know if 2018 is realistic but there will be some self driving cars for sale by 2020 is my guess.

Probably, but in very limited numbers and useful in very limited situations.

I think I read that the autonomous mode for a Tesla S is something like a $10k software upgrade. That kinda limits it's acceptance for now.

Told the wife two days ago it was time to start shopping.


$100 a month that's what I'm willing to spend.

I found your car. Only $100 a month. And clean too.

For real my formula is 25k miles a year plan on getting 200k miles out of the vehicle. I'm willing to spend $100 a month on a daily driver so 100k miles on the car I'll spend about 5k on it.

You couldn't even buy half the crap I take to the wholesale auction for that.

Mazda's are nice. I don't really know about reliability since I traded my 1988 B-2200. I only traded it due to rust.

Jetta? Run away quickly. They have all kinds of electrical problems.

Suck it up and get a Forester. AWD, lots of room to haul crap and they'll run forever. Just stay away from 2011-2014's. And make sure you replace the timing belt on earlier years.

Our mazda 6 hasn't had any serious issues. Over 210k. I'm familiar with the engine too is why I'm looking.


Now that I'm looking I'm finding lots of civics in my price range.

Dang Nashville isn't too far for me.

You're talking about robots doing maintenance and repair on each other. That's a ways away.

But I do agree it's a reality my grandkids will almost certainly face.

I agree it is a ways away. It won't happen in 20 years, but it will happen long before 200 years.

Lol @ all these people thinking for some reason having a driver behind the wheel is safer

Self driving cars are already drastically safer, and we are in the early phases so it will only get safer.

I think I read that those Google Earth robot cars have logged about a million and a half miles and they have only had 5 minor accidents. Google says only one was its cars fault. That brings up a good point. Who is UPS going to blame if the truck don't have a driver? It's ALWAYS the drivers fault.
