I drove west on the pike today and a lot of the leaves are almost peak there. I drive 495 during the week and it is not very impressive because there are a lot of evergreens along that route. There are noticeably less to get in the way on 90 heading to the Berkshires.

Wow, Spag and Duddie, I thought I was the only old timer on Worc Reddit. Found a packed away Spag's canvas tote in a closet and got all teared up. I had family that worked there and worked there to the bitter end. The pay was not much better than anywhere else but he took care of his employees, there are so many stories of his generosity and many kindnesses.

If it’s too good to be true then assume that.. unless you have money to burn don’t take the risk. I mean you’re on Reddit asking about a car dealerships, you’re already reaching. Don’t do it if you don’t feel like it’s right. Trust your gut.

Let the buyer beware, cheap cars are cheap for a reason. Small dealers generally buy cars at auction or a wholesaler. These are often problem cars that the dealers slap a band aid on the problem, wash and detail the car and put it on the lot. The large dealerships generally deal in trade ins and lease returns that are also a roll of the dice but to a lesser extent and some dealerships will offer a three day no questions asked return. The large dealership also knows that if they treat you right with a used car you're more likely to buy from them if you buy brand new. Cheap cars are buying someone else's problems and unless you're a mechanic I'd avoid them.

Got my first car from here almost 5 years ago now with 150k miles on it and i expected it to last for 1 year max. Still have it today with 250k miles on it. I got the car superrrr cheap and i’m surprised it lasted this long. It’s probably just luck it lasted but I just wanted to share my experience with them

I just went up to brattlefield vermont and it is definitely not peaking this weekend. Did see more towards the coast. I would suggest going to Brattleboro and go back through Route 9 >12>140> and route 2 back to Worcester. Took me 3 hrs round trip so not much driving.
