It’s hilarious that you think a mass production line $20k Journey has the same build quality as a $120k hand-built sports car.

Dude owns a Triumph TR7, he clearly has no interest in build quality.

They were hand built at their own plant. Not rolling off the same assembly line as the “buzzy drivetrain” Renegade.

What, exactly, is wrong with the build quality on the Viper?

OK, two things:

I like cars, I read this site daily as well as a few others in order to stay away from the real news. I honestly don’t know if you will be able to test drive a Tesla once the “dealerships” close. Your comments says one thing, I thought Elon said I should just return it after a few days if I don’t like it. I’m going to

Why would anyone buy the bolt or leaf?

And with a Tesla, you...can’t test drive it, might have trouble getting a refund even if you do return it in the 7-day window, might not have a service center in your state, and could have to wait MONTHS for repair parts to come in.

Jeezus... an 80 mile commute? Buy nothing. Rent a house closer to work.

As usual, I’m not going to offer car advice, but rather life advice. Either find a job closer to home or find a home closer to work. Not only will you save money on your commute, but you’ll also free up a lot of time you’d otherwise spend sitting in traffic. 

When someone is asking for honest advice on what car to buy, yes, I DO in fact, take their criteria seriously and come up with a legit suggestion.

Oh god these are such horrible suggestions. A juke? Kill me, first.

Move.

At least half the answers to these are fucking stupid.

Oh Gawd...remember when Trump blew through $6 billion amassing troops at the border because Congress wouldn’t approve $5.7 billion in funding for his “wall?” All the while touting his massive defense spending as a pay raise for the military while witholding paychecks from the Coast Guard that protects the US against

As an engineer, engineering does work that way. When an electronics unit’s fan is designed to turn on at 50 ºC, it turns on when the sensor reads 50 ºC. It doesn’t turn on at some random number. When an emergency braking system is designed to be turned off at 37.5 mph, it turns off when the appropriate sensor reads

Well, shoot, I don’t see what the big deal is. I’ve got a Saturn motor out in the back forty. And the tranny. And some glass and the bumpers. The seats are kinda shot though. But, ain’t nobody ever made a big deal about MY Saturn motor...

Maximum weight and towing capacity are not even remotely the same thing as a set speed at which an active system turns on or off . Those are upper boundary limits to a physical point of failure, a test-weight so to speak, and they better damn well be labeled conservatively to accommodate for defects and unexpected

Drivers DO see pedestrians the vast majority of the time (let’s say 99% of the time)

If that’s the case—and I have no reason to doubt it—BMW has even less excuse to accomplish something that the Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, Toyota RAV4, and Volvo XC40 all achieved withthe highest ratings in IIHS’s testing”, while 2019 Chevrolet Equinox, the 2018–19 Hyundai Kona, the 2019 Kia Sportage, the 2018–19
