Back in late 2021, my husband Craig (M46) and I (F44) welcomed our fourth child into the world. As a result, we needed to upgrade one of our cars to something larger. We decided to trade in my super reliable Toyota RAV4 for something bigger since I was the one who drove the kids around most often.
I was open and ready to embrace minivan life and was planning to buy something reliable and safe, like a Honda or Kia. But Craig had his heart set on an SUV; in his mind, minivans were "too feminine." So, against my better judgment, we ended up purchasing a used 2018 Mercedes GLS 450, mainly due to his insistence. He argued that this car would offer similar space to the Kia/Honda minivans I wanted but with added luxury. Since it was priced like a loaded Honda van, we went ahead with it.
After two years, I can safely say we made the wrong choice. While the car does have good passenger space, it doesn’t seem to have as much cargo room as those minivans. The reliability has been junk. The car has had 8 recalls during our ownership. Even when not recalled, it spends too much time at the dealership because something always seems to be broken. Some repairs have been covered under warranty, but we've still shelled out over $9k (maintenance not included). The car hasn’t even racked up that many miles.
Below are just some of the annoyances:
-
The shifting can be rough. Sometimes, I press on the gas and the car barely moves, and when it does, it's jerky.

-
For the past few weeks, the check engine light has been turning on randomly.
-
Numerous electronic issues.
Since the car's problems have stepped up in the past few weeks, I'm beyond fed up. I don't feel safe driving it around with my kids and I've even started getting nightmares about it stranding us in the middle of nowhere. Craig always downplays this and claims that it's normal for the car to have some issues.
Making things worse somehow, Craig's sedan has started developing issues lately. It has begun to refuse to start some mornings and will sometimes shut itself off when it comes to a stop sign or red light.
On Saturday, I was supposed to drive our eldest to his soccer game and then take my younger kids to the doctor's office. When I turned on the Mercedes, it sounded very rough, the engine light was on, and the temperature reading was extremely wrong. I don't bother risking it and end up ubering with the kids.
I told Craig about it that night. He listened at first, but when I suggested selling it, he cut me off and said that he wasn’t getting a van just because I wanted that. It was so combative and defensive the way he said it, and because I was so tired from the day, I lashed out. We argued it got heated and I ended up saying "Your fragile masculinity is costing our family so much money". In retrospect, maybe my tone was harsh, but he was being needlessly difficult. We haven’t really spoken much since then. I'll also be ubering to work this week since I won't be touching that car.
AITA?
Edit - For those wondering about the car's condition, I've included the I took of it on Saturday when I started it up. The engine light is on and it was saying the temperature was -12°F when it was really something like 60°F
Context - For those wondering, this isn't the first instance of his masculinity being threatened by something minor. He also refuses lip balm and purple dress shirts among other things.

I believe this tipping for everything culture is going to end up hurting employees more than helping them. Yesterday I told my wife I am now refusing to tip for anything except to sit down meal and personal service like a haircut, and only if the restaurant does not charge service fee.
We went to a gas station yesterday and there was a tip option. I kept calm at the moment but in the car I told her I'm done with this.
Does this make me a Boomer?
We don't order delivery so we're not stuffing anyone there. I'm just sick of considering doing your job as something that should be tipped.

This was on the most recent episode of the Bill Simmons podcast when he made this as a throwaway comment. He speculates they're waiting until the playoffs are done for TNT to announce it. He also doesn't provide the $$ on this but Bill is plugged on on rich people things with the NBA.

An Unethical Life Pro Tip (or ULPT) is a tip that improves your life in a meaningful way, perhaps at the expense of others and/or with questionable legality. Due to their nature, do not actually follow any of these tips–they're just for fun. Share your best tips you've picked up throughout your life, and learn from others!
They're young, from an intolerant culture, smoking pot and listening to trash auto-tuned french rap all day, everyday, spew homophobic slurs at me constantly when I go out/in my apartment building. Worst part is I live on the ground floor, which used to be a big pro (I have a little terrace behind).
They're suspected to be part of a small drug-trafficking group but the police can't never seem to catch them with enough merchandise/proof/anything to stop them. So they always come back. I've asked nicely, less nicely, put security cameras, called the police dozens of times. But it's been months now and I'm done with the ethical path. I refuse to move out, can't afford it in this market anyway.
Please, shout me your best unethical ideas to make those assholes leave my window sills and not come back 👿
Edit: you're all a bunch of evil geniuses, thank you for all the good ideas!
