Agree! It must be Subaru, and it must be a 2+2 configuration with removable jump seats in the bed. BRAT is the answer!

I was thinking more along these lines
I’d like to see them abuse some interns. Not the whole show mind you, but start rotating some young blood through and see if any new characters get traction. I’m getting tired of Jezza’s neck, May’s back and Hammond’s goofy “I’m quite fit for my advanced age” whitened grin. Too much pain and geritol mixed in the…
Cute, but when is it going to be available in the US? For that matter, when is Elio going to be available? Won’t somebody please shut up and take my money already???
I get that this is a technology demonstrator for Sikorsky, and they don’t need to be asking for more problems to solve - but wouldn’t it make more sense to put a jet engine back there? There is room in the tail section for a big one, and a big enough jet could potentially power the rotors as well as giving rearward…
As a proud Caravan owner, I hate to say it - but a Suburban is way more ‘murican. If it doesn't have a V8...you know the rest...
As someone who is without a fun car for now, but has sensible cars: Lending it to a friend. Here, let me show you the under-floor compartment in my ‘08 Grand Caravan - yes, the whole seat flips in to there to give a flat and low load floor! You taking two families on a road trip? Wish I could go - but here’s the keys.…
I understand why SpaceX is doing it this way, and why a normal parachute wouldn’t work... but how about a steerable parachute? HALO this bitch Elon!
I’m going to go with power steering. Try parking any but the smallest and lightest car without it, then remember that before power steering American cars were anything but small and light.
I think you hit the nail on the head by pointing out how much pain Clarkson must be in on a day to day basis. Neck, back and hip problems. Pain will change a person (coming from someone who's knee is trying to slowly murder him). It may be time for Clarkson to focus on writing and behind the camera work...
2016 looks cheap, plastic and friendly. Can you do a slider with the 2016 and this?
Shouldn't you be including torques in the equation? All the engine downsizing of the last couple years is being made up for with diesel, forced induction and/or hybrid systems, all of which add more torque than HP - arguably a wonderful thing.
I disagree completely. Going from 1HP to 2HP is 100% increase, but not all that difficult. Going from 700HP to 800HP, while not a large percentage increase (or even a large performance increase) is a much tougher engineering feat, no? Isn't HP like top speed? The higher you go the more physics you need to overcome,…
AWD Durango offers low range when you get the V8 - not saying it will do better than a cherokee - unless you need to take 7 people off-roading.
I agree with the small truck talk - BUT: The Elio-gap is bigger. We all drive alone most of the time. A tandem two-seater that: does freeway speed, gets 80 MPG, costs less than $10K, is fully enclosed and can survive a crash like a car is possible (Elio may not be able to do it - but someone else could), and you…
Win for navy-blue Grand Caravan owners! Yeahhh!!!
Bought a 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan SE in late 2007 for $18,980 (with stow-and-go and rear air!) - best bang-for-the-buck anywhere.
Chev SS starts at $45K, which makes your G8 look like the deal of the century!
The pony car was traditionally hooning on a budget. I see Ford starting the 6MT at over $25K and offering no performance or comfort options for it as class warfare. Ford is essentially saying "if you want performance for less than $30K you must go FWD or look elsewhere". I think they are missing the opportunity to…
I saw an Alfa Romeo or two - but not for the reason I'd pick: Prove Top Gear UK right or wrong about their premise: "You are not a true petrol head until you have owned an Alfa"
