What an outlandish yet oddly homespun dialect! California truly is a land of wonders.

I've notice this way of disseminating information in American media. A UK presenter will say something once with perhaps illustrative examples to make the point. American presenters will endlessly repeat the same points over and over again, as a cow chews the cud.
It's as if they don't think their audience are bright enough to get the point immediately.

I would be more interested in knowing why a 2014 has less than 400 miles on it.

I asked that question to a northern VA, DC area, Harley Davidson salesman about why are there so many low mileage Harleys. He said it's unique to this area. Lot's of guys making money. They buy it and then don't bother to keep riding. They can afford it. Apparently, there's a similar mess in SFO.

The hot bikes in the SF Bay Area this year are the newest, biggest and most expensive KTM models. No one wants a lowly Royal Enfield - or a car that costs less than $100K, either.  ::)
