That sounds about right, I used to get 1k USD + insurance.
Tolls and gas weren't included.

we used to get insurance.. i was able to even claim snow tires before, but not anymore. and they havent increased this company car amount for 5+ years now. lame!!!
CN was the best. not only did i get a company car, but i got a fuel card (i wouldnt wanna pay for gas on a ford exploader) and they had fleet insurance for the car so i didnt even need to bother with insurance.... and since it was a CN car, any tickets you got went directly towards CN. I used to park it all over the place, didnt give a shit about tickets and it was all taken care of.

Rather stick with odyssey. Plus the sienna the seats dont go into the floor cause of the battery no?

The 2nd row never did, but you could take them out easy enough.
Best seats for utility are those pacifica/caravan stow and go seats. you could fold them all into the floor but they were paper thin and uncomfortable for passengers.

That's no longer the case now... when even a Camry drives pretty sporty. | Those old Civics were so much fun to drive! EG / EK, and by extension Integras as well.
And something new cars can't hold a candle to against the old cars are -- the old cars are so light, and that makes them super agile. Never mind the fact that they are tin can death traps if you ever get into an accident, but new cars can't really replicate that.

well I spec'd one out to the tits and somehow built a 200K Cadillac wtf. I accidentally spec'd it with auto, but I somehow imagine you'd want a 10-speed auto over a manual anyway, with the 6.2L SC V8.    
Anyway.. a stripper spec is only.. $982 biweekly..

Keep in mind, it's a taxable benefit. 1200/m most likely means it's less than 600/m after deductions. I don't know if Hobz can write it off on his taxes, I'm going to guess no.
The Hitler box is realisitcally how much he can do without it coming out of pocket.

^correcto. at 500-600 bucks i dont have to pay squat. The rest is an extravagance i dont need or want.
I mean if i wanted speed, comfort and convertible the LC does that.
If i want novacane on wheels and have my soul ripped out of me while commuting, the camry does that very well.
That leaves an empty hole for shitboxes, weird things, and useless voids that really do not require filling. A minivan does it. Will I move things? fuck no. its just like i installed a $1200 trailer hitch for my wifes RX and havent used it a single time... i had the intention of towing a trailer, or a little crabbing boat... never happened.. dont think it'll happen now either. I wont carry people either because i hate fucking people. all these old geezers can go die, they arent coming in my MAXI VAN.
Im gonna fold down the rear seats, replace 2nd row with aliexpress sofa's, install a TV with and my firestick, and then game in the back of my van with my refrigerator filled with cool drinks and that vacuum attached to my dick.
So if you got a weird suggestion, something quirky, retarded, and insane. post it up.
I had looked even stranger things today.
F150 lightning (meh, not that cheap to lease, but also not that expensive... might be fun for 10 minutes but then hard to park in my downtown office)
Fiat500e - its so cheap why not buy 3 and crash 2 of them into biffanys house? whos biffany? A FUCKING REAL CUNTBAG thats who. Quote:

Honda: Civic, Integra, Prelude, RSX
Toyota: Celica
Nissan: Sentra SE-R, 240SX
Mazda: 323 / Protege, Miata
Subaru: 2.5RS
Even the domestics had some fun stuff:
Ford: Escort GT (shared platform with 323 / Protege), Probe, Mustang
Chrysler: Neon
Chevrolet: Camaro
VW: Golf, Corrado
Bimmers start to get expensive, so I won't count them in.
Nowadays, the only affordable fun car I can think of are the GR86 / BRZ and Miata. Almost everything else became boring to drive.

Yup. You are right.
I thought about picking up a cheap Neon SRT-4 back then. Cheap fun with tons of potential. Always remembered the WRX vs SRT-4 commerical haha
Also 2001-2005 Nissan Sentra SER Spec V was also a fun little car that not many ppl knew about.

RIP V90 wagon. There's one T6 R-design locally in bursting blue metallic that's absolutely gorgeous.
They've also depreciated like rocks, if you want the looks of the RS6 for less than half the price.

I've always thought V90 was a tad big. I think V60 is the perfect long roof! Like this: 
but then my bias is obvious ... white v70r
