My first actual new car ever, pretty sad rofl:

2013 Dodge Dart SXT

Nothing sad about that. I was looking at those.

Sure, I could roll in a BMW, but why? I could drive my Elantra instead and retire early. lol

Okay. My Dad bought this car in 1974 for $375. He drove it as his daily driver for years and I grew up riding around in this. He spent ten years restoring it himself but then never really drove it

Because the Elantra is lame and unexciting, you only live once and life is too short to be driving that car :) just giving you crap. Spend the money you save on golf!

To the bold: Trust me, I have. My monthly golf has cost me almost double my car payment. Scary thought...lol

Only the engine is the same. the cars look nothing alike.

Or...

Only the look (bodywork and cabin cosmetics) differ, mechanically the cars are one and the same.

In other words the unibody is the same. The VW minivan, it's made by Chrysler, it is just a town and country. I drive a pimped out 2010 Toyota Corolla, I say pimped because a wheel cover fell off and I am yet to replace it. :)

I remember being pretty exited when Saab and Subaru were collaborating on a car. I was less excited when they basically just came out with another impreza with a Saab logo and inflated price tag.

The size and shape are pretty significantly different. Though the engine is the same for sure, most of the other drivetrain components are not interchangeable. Saying that they are the same car rebranded is a big stretch.

I don't think that is the right Alfa, I think this is the model they turned into the NA Dart: I could be wrong about all of this. Just making conversation.

You may be right about that model, I apologize about the wrong picture rofl. I can say those two are at least a bit more similar. The reason say they aren't the same car is I was doing a lot of research about possible upgrades and whatnot for my car and found nothing that was interchangeable between the two for performance.

Yeah, only that was 2x the price and out of my range.... I'm actually looking at possibly trading up to the dart srt-4 when it comes out. Small car with 300ish horsepower and good gas mileage, yes please

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
