Not just any maps. Motor Vehicle Use Maps. Nobody wants to be the reason a trail becomes permanently off limits because they were riding on it when it was marked closed on the MVUM but appeared open in person.

agree I have myself checking my bank account and figuring out how to fly across country to buy this and drive it back, on a trailer of course.

I think the author made the unfortunate mistake of confusing a locked 4wd system with locked differentials. I don’t think he means you need lockers, but rather a locked 4wd system.

I drive a 2013. I will drive it until it dies. Car prices are absurd. EV prices are worse.

i’m loving all these “expert” opinions. i have a good deal of experience in recovering vehicles here in the rockies and i can tell you that the vast majority of these awd vehicles can do 70-80 of the stuff out there, especially with a trained and capable driver. the problem i see is the way these vehicles are…

You suddenly went from “respected veteran” to asshole. Service is service. The people in combat don’t function without the rest of the military, active duty, reserves and National Guard. So: fuck you.

Oh look! Donald’s Bitch goes for a photo op while he’s not whining about Walz’s military service record—a man who put in 24 years with the National Guard and was mustered out due to hearing issues. Such “genius” on Vance’s part.

“Senator! Senator! You forgot your torches and robes!”

Man who flew a desk for four years whines about a 24-year national guardsman not being military enough. Vance is funny, in the same way RFK, Jr is funny.

Both are pogues. But one was a desk jockey PAO that sat in an air conditioned office in their one 6 month deployment, and one was frocked to CSM and retired as a MSG. Furthermore, it’s uncouth to attack a veteran for their service if you’re a veteran yourself, especially in politics. I do think the NG is lame, but if…

God these people are insufferable. My favorite is how they want every woman in America who is of birthing age to be a tradwife or dead.

99%, give or take a point.

If all this Tolerance keeps up, there won’t be any place left for assholes!

It was always a little upsetting how much the automotive press would crap on cars like this, and I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a contributing factor to automakers deciding to exit this space. These cars are perfectly competent transportation and serve a purpose, nothing wrong with them. 

Next year about this time the article will be “there arent any cars left under 30,000"

When the mafia lends money to someone and they can’t pay it back, so they load the person’s business up with debt, pull out all the possible money, and crater said business, it’s called crime. When a PE firm does it, it’s called capitalism.

I would love to see the books from the week before the PE firm took over, to…

It’s wild that we have this massive business market that literally consists of buying a company and then sucking as much money as possible from them until it dies. Pure vampire capitalism. 

Another bunch of greedy assholes ruin a company. Anyone else as sick of VC and hedge funds ruining great companies as I am?  Fucking VC. ARRRGGGH

We just are so much better than this.
