Which can be overcome with teflon coated rounds, right?

Have you driven an F150? rip hand skin

Maybe its different in the SUV’s, but in my TDI it’s one of the better leathers i’ve dealt with. Coming from an autocross background and driving a lot of different cars.

I’ve taken my last 2 golfs offroad and beat on them pretty hard and never had them do this “VW thang” you speak of. YMMV

You don’t like leather steering wheels?

edit: Holy hell I didn’t realize VW was selling the Touareg for 42k+ Retract that one, my bad. And it looks like they don’t even offer the TDI anymore?

Most things that are sold with the intent to tow do. It’s all electronic anyway.

You know you can buy an air jack system. I think they’re like, 1k per corner, plus air lines. Use a smaller tank to supply pressure and refill at home.

It seems like you’re comparing VW’s to BMWs?

What did you think about the golf’s and passats and jettas? Compared to their counterparts in mazda, honda, toyota, etc.?

Does nobody take into account the simple fact that we will at some point in the probably near-ish future, run out of the oil capacity we currently have?

Does future proofing your industry with slight losses now, not make sense in the long run? Or should industry act like there isn’t an impending end date to oil…

I feel like the whole point of a bus/microbus, is to be able to go out of town and live in your bus. With an electric, don’t you just kill any opportunity to road trip with its reduced range?

I know TONS of “car people” who have never driven competitively in any sort of sanctioned racing event. They street race like hell, and have absolutely no car control skills.

I’d wager, pound for pound, those people are more dangerous than people who are timid behind the wheel. For the simple reason that these guys…

Say this with me folks “A Locked wheel will not stop or turn a car”

All he needed to do, besides have actual experience driving a car anywhere near the limits in a safe environment, are: 1: Not just stab the brake pedal and hope for the best, and 2: counter steer and power out - AWD does a pretty damn good job of going…

Is the Federal Government suing them?

It’s not a hybrid setup, the gas motor is just a generator to charge the battery.

I’m having trouble finding any resource that says he actually said this.

I found that Obama said roughly this a few years ago, but not Bernie.

He must not get small fancy cars often. Legs first! ALWAYS LEGS FIRST.

You do realize those are called bumpers for a reason, right?
