So, basically, instead of just putting a heating element under the wipers like Subaru they’ve made the most frequently replaced part on the car significantly more expensive?

I have a friend who is a time traveler. His name is Jim Spanfeller, and he is determined to bring the usability of websites from the late 1990s to the modern internet.

You can’t take the sky from me.

It looks like a catfish someone stepped on. Also $33k is dangerously close to “just get an EV” territory for me.

That's the one, right there!

You have chosen your object of desire wisely. I’ve driven 430s on a track. They are lively, usable, fantastic cars.

I actually have something important to add that will change entirely how you feel about my comment... I won’t say it here though, it’ll be mentioned in one of my later comments 😛

Now we're talking. Handsome and fast... And depreciating. 

“If your not ....”. So they want to charge EXTRA for their crappy grammar?

“This is typical jalopnik commenters, you have no idea what is safe anymore, and what kind of equipment you need for children to be safe in a car accident.”

Is anyone else having a problem with the links in Notifications? Like they don’t take you to the comment someone has responded to or liked anymore.

Pretty sure he means forward facing car seat. You go rearward->forward-> booster seat. The current recommendation for booster seats is until they are 4ft9in which is often 10-12yrs old. I was riding shotgun in the 1990's long before that age. This is a forward facing car seat:

Families also use to lap sit the kids. Back in my day, we didn’t have all these fancy rear facing car seats and booster seats and this and that.

Back then, you didn’t have car seats. Now car seats take up tons of space. My parents put 5 kids in a Ford Granada, a car which only had 6 seatbelts. One person sat on the bench between mom and dad, and then 4 in the backseat. And we never used the seat belts back then. Nowadays, there is no bench in the front, and if…

Car seats are absurdly huge and aren’t getting any smaller. A rearward facing one can prevent the front seat from sliding backward on things smaller than full sized vehicles. I can’t imagine one would fit in my mazda with my seat back all the way.

I’m in traffic everyday with one of these and no matter how good it is I still cant get past the red accents. Like why do the “sports” accents when 1. you are in a SUV. and 2. it would be a drivers race between you and a prius. 

If family hauling is your goal, the Ascent is a better choice in everything except cost.

Perfect family car? Maybe if you only have one kid.

My boss’s ‘17 F350 has been having screen issues. It’ll randomly lock up leaving it useless. At least it still has regular buttons for important stuff. You can reset it but you have to pull over somewhere and do it

She mentioned it.
