I’m aware of at least two events, so it isn’t a single occurrence.

Yeah. A few times this year I got something like “Need access code,” or some other reason why they couldn’t deliver it. Our address, and location, is as basic as possible, and both times I was actually home all day, sitting in the living room, with an EXCELLENT view of the street just outside and nobody came by. It…
I’d imagine they actually look UP at them.
You must be fun at parties...
To be fair, headgaskets were really the only issue. And not that those were a minor repair, but the vehicles were essentially bulletproof apart from that one (fixable) issue.
Did something change for 2018 with the QX80? I drove one of the pre-facelift versions, and the LAST thing I would call it was “underpowered.” The thing was an absolute riot in terms of how fast it was considering the 6,000+ lb curb weight. I actually caught a Camaro off guard and it took him up to 100 MPH to slowly…
The chase scene in the new Mission Impossible movie was fucking GLORIOUS.
As someone in the import/drifting community, if I see a modified car, in any capacity and the ad says “never raced, drifted and always babied” that person is lying. A normal person doesn’t just LS swap an S13 because they need a replacement engine. I’ve even seen ads with FULLY CAGED CARS that said this. Are these…
Can you elaborate for those of us who were looking to try following this series for the first time this year, and don't really know anything about it?
FWIW, it looks like it’ll be available for me via YouTube TV here in Chicago. I already have the whole series added to my “Digital DVR.”
I hope the second half of that sentence was sarcasm...
They all look to be the size of a Miata...
It isn’t about making the mirrors easier to use. It’s about eliminating the blind spot they create when they are mounted on the “window area.” I’m all for form following function, but when designed intelligently (i.e. NOT the way these Chevy idiots designed these) they don’t look bad, and then you get the added…
Why?
Well if you always signal, then you won't have any issues :)
I dunno. I assume you're doing something wrong if those systems are always nagging you. I've driven a 2018 Subaru with the latest suite of everything and the only time it bothered me was when I intentionally did something dumb.
That still doesn’t explain why they decided to keep that section solid plastic instead of glass, though. Even if they did move it for a different reason.
The biggest offender in this design is that they relocated the mirrors to the door body, but then just filled that triangular area of the window in with BLACK FUCKING PLASTIC!!! The whole fucking point of door-mounted mirrors is to allow you to make that area out of stuff you can see through, like glass, and reduce…
Hence why I’m not funding it. But there are plenty of people capable of funding this project, and still paying rent!
To know that you funded a project that has captivated so many people around the globe, and been the passion project of a great many students and engineers for years. To know that you helped a team breach the land speed record in a big way.
Not everything needs a material “return on investment!” People don’t donate to…
