Your spouse/sibling/BFF bought a raffle ticket at a New Car Expo in your name, and unbelievably, you are the grand prize winner! As such, you can have any new vehicle up to around $50,000 MSRP (can go over a little if you’re talking about optional features that they happen to have in stock). Taxes are buffered into the prize as well, as they’re not total jerks. The practical downsides are that you have to make it your daily driver (60% or more), pay for the insurance yourself, you can’t remove the dealer/manufacturer’s license plate holder (where legal), and you have to keep it for at least 5 years, after which it’s yours free and clear with no further requirements. Sorry, it’s a car expo, so only 4 wheeled, street legal vehicles.

What do you get?

  • A new 2-door coupe.
  • A new 4-door sedan.
  • A new hatchback (either 3 or 5 door)
  • A new Small SUV/Crossover
  • A new Larger SUV/Crossover
  • A new small scale Pickup
  • A new larger scale Pickup
  • Something else entirely.
  • None of the above, I don’t want/don’t need a new vehicle, give it to the 2nd place winner.

Is it a…

  • ICE, some sort of “standard” gasoline engine.
  • ICE, some sort of diesel engine.
  • Full Hybrid engine (ICE only, with regenerative braking, etc.)
  • PHEV (Plug in hybrid vehicle, with EV drive + ICE engine)
  • BEV (All electric drivetrain)
  • Something else?
  • I told you, I don’t take your new car, 'tis a silly question!
0 voters

And is it…

  • Nearly the Maximum value allowed?
  • Middle range of the value (around $30k)
  • Low end of the value ($20k or below)
  • None of the above, because I refused the deal (don’t drive, no place to park, don’t want insurance, stick it to the maaaaan!)

If you voted that you have a landline, what kind is it?

  • A traditional landline, an old fashioned copper phone line connects your house to the phone company’s switching office.
  • A phone that connects to the internet. It’s plugged into the wall, but it’s plugged into something like an Ethernet jack, not an old fashioned phone jack.
  • A “landline” that actually connects to the cellular network via an antenna on your house.
  • Hell if I know. All I know is I’ve got a phone that’s plugged into the wall.
  • Some other kind of phone that could be described as a landline that I didn’t think of
  • I actually don’t have a landline. I’m just voting to see the results.
