Yup. My 2013 5spd Sport has had zero issues at 70k. ~5 of those k even include a lady renting it from me on Turo and - I’m absolutely in no way joking - using it to run contraband to and/or from Mexico.

Unless it’s his startup’s terrible two-wheeled egg thing. He can crash as many of those abominations as he likes.

I don’t buy it. I spoke with someone from AoA marketing who they said they keep telling the Germans and they just won’t believe that Americans claim to want these things.

The fact that this isn’t a mountain bike is a huge missed opportunity.

Thanks Tom! Went for it and the girlfriend loves it! Already getting it dirty with my mountain bike in the back. Now we just need a dog and for our teenage child to call us saying that the car’s totaled and they’re shaken but uninjured, then we’ll be living the Sooby dream.

Hey Tom. My girlfriend is shopping for a new Forester (that’s where she landed after driving several crossovers and being tremendously let down by the CX-5 which she was all but sure she wanted). She wants a white one with the Black edition package and our local dealer actually grabbed one from the next state over for…

Awww yeah

Yep. Learned this one the hard way with a friend when I sold my 240. It was easier to sell it to him at the time with 50% down and an installment agreement instead of doing the whole Craigslist thing because I was in a rush to empty the garage and move house... 2 years later he still owed me like $4k on it after doing…

Dude, chill. Sorry my idle half-joking internet comment wasn’t thoughtful enough for you. Also where did I say that all dog lovers are good people? I will say 100% seriously though that I’ve never met a person who disliked dogs that I’ve ever wound up trusting or liking. Your mileage may vary.

Came here to say this as well, but then I actually read the article and found a shred of sympathy for the asker of this question.

Prototypes are typically hot garbage, with the sole exception of (but also sometimes including) the one thing they were built to test, i.e. drivetrain, infotainment, connectivity, etc. If a bad running light was the only issue we had with a technical mule at my job we’d have a party. No joke.

Whoa whoa, what’s wrong with sweatpants? If I’m not flying for business or any other purpose that requires me to look professional when I hit the ground I’m gonna go ahead and wear comfy pants that don’t require a belt which I have to remove at security. Slip-on shoes too (not sandals though because I know my feet are…

So, better just buy a car whose only means of propulsion is to burn stuff, rather than one that can potentially be powered by clean energy? What about distributed energy production? Several of my neighbors with EVs have solar and even some wind turbine installations. At least some of the energy is clean. The car is as…

I love the blonde lady holding the camera like, “are you seeimg this shit?”

4 years ago I bought my first brand new car; a shiny new Fit Sport with a 5 speed. I had been dailying my fuel-hungry and impractical project car, so I was really looking forward to owning something I could take camping and on road trips without breaking the bank (or anything else). People on the FitFreak said they’d…

Reverse: How is parking far away dumb advice? If you do this at work, out for lunch and back and during your day-to-day errands you’ve burned a couple beers’ worth of calories throughout a week and helped offset some of your sedentary time. Not to mention saving yourself the frustration of hunting for a “good spot”…

That’s the thing. We don’t know what the “evidence” actually is. It could just be a single page document referencing the export of a single vehicle that mistakenly mentions a massive quantity of cars. Doesn’t even have to be official customs documentation. It could be a random e-mail or a spreadsheet made for…

Knowing what a clusterfuck of paperwork and confusion it can be sending components and stuff between countries for development/testing purposes, it’s also entirely possible that the evidence they discovered is just an electronic record or piece of paper that someone lazily or incorrectly filled out. Granted, when it…

Man, fuck all the haters here. Yes it’s clumsy and has numerous exposed weaknesses; yes, there are about a zillion more effective weapons systems in existence... But who the hell cares? It’s a first step. Can’t we just appreciate that it’s happening and that whoever does it next will improve upon it, as will the next…

If you participate in a business whose purpose is to provide your house to people in exchange for money, have already entered into an agreement and then try to void said agreement solely because of racism/discrimination, then yes. This lady also could have just not said any of that prejudiced ignorant shit, simply…
