This was not on my radar but I’m impressed at the price for what they give you. But I’m cheap, so I’ll probably still opt for that Kia Stinger GT when it comes out. Kinda look the same anyway, but at least the Kia has a longer warranty. I don’t care about names/badges.

Bravo!

Let’s go 3 weeks without Elon and see how much we need him as a CEO. Ready?

Actually, just watch this if you need any more convincing that a trip to Lanai with a rented Jeep is a must:

Do the Lanai off road. Just take a ferry from Maui over. Unfortunately there is only 1 rental car agency there, Dollar, and they know it so you will pay for that Jeep, but they know you are taking it off-road and provide you with a guide to all the best spots. Best Jeep adventure in Hawaii (sanctioned that is). As for…

I have rented Jeep Wranglers and Grand Cherokee’s in Hawaii. Now that may sound like a nice time to some but I have been to Hawaii over 16 times now and I have been on a LOT of back roads there. I have “rock climbed” on Kauai. Driven over cooling lava on The Big Island and did complete off-road adventures on Lana’i.…

THIS! I read the book myself but I knew the only way to get my wife into it so she’d be more inclined to watch the movie with me was by getting the audiobook.

Being 44 years old means I grew up in the 70's and 80's and lived all of the things that this book held in high regard. As a result I had so many friends tell me that I just HAD to read this book.

Or just do what my wife does... Put jalapeno cream cheese in the center of the burger so that every bite oozes wonderfully spicy cheese. You’re welcome!

Not a typo. But if I was told that I shouldn’t expect something before the end of 2018 and I still paid $1,000.00 then shame on me, right?

I liked it from the side but, yeah, when you look at it straight on it does look like a blob or something. Although I remember saying the Jeep Cherokee looked like a Rancor before it came out and now I actually like the look so maybe this is one of those cases where they somehow know what people will like before we…

I am unclear on one thing with bowing... do you “look eye”?

Great review! There is a yellow 308 GTSi sitting in the back yard of an elderly guy in my town and it has been there for well over a decade, just sitting, rotting. I have asked him several times if I could buy it but he has no interest in getting rid of it. I think he just likes looking at it but doesn’t want to put…

I have a ‘13 Hyundai Sonata now which has been surprisingly great at 48K miles in spite of many others having engine troubles so I guess a lot has to do with luck of the draw too. Also I think if you go with the first model year of anything you ask for trouble, I know the 2011 Sonatas were linked to many issues that…

Ugh... rethinking my subaru plans...

I have been considering Subaru for my next daily driver. First I’ve seen of an issue with their quality but please elaborate if you can. I’ll be searching the internets as well now for the ugly truth, if that is the case, but always helps to have first hand stories.

I remember when I was a kid I saw a concept car, late 80's, that did away with wipers altogether and had some kind of, well I guess you could say it was like a Dyson airblade technology. Still waiting for that one to come out. I never imagined we’d get smartphones and autonomous cars before someone would invent a…

Same. I was thinking hatchback or, as they like to call it now, sportback.

I tried the method of emailing and calling dealers ahead of time and working out some deals to TRY and save myself, and them, some hassle and wasted time. The first dealer I (thought I) had a potential deal with ended up registering me for the car before I even arrived on site only to tell me they actually could not…

Hey, pudding pops worked for Cosby... oh, wait.
