villages my rule of tens go used cars

“This was the fully loaded model,” except FWD and 4-cylinder. Are you using the same “fully loaded” concept as the rest of us?

Crosstour is not a bad car, but it just makes me sad that it isn’t an Accord wagon. So close.

Quit opening the windows. I have the aircon on to keep us cool, having the windows open just leads to increased road noise, poor gas mileage, and a breeze running across the back of my neck which will give me a sore neck the next morning. So quit it. Also, stop trying to tell me if there is traffic coming when I come…

Don’t lose hope, there are still plenty of wagons being offered in the US from other manufacturers like Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Subaru, Porsche, and Mini.

Winter? Thats pretty optimistic. Labor day is more accurate. 

Oh, and if you, the reader, are thinking Jalopnik is about to become a little bit less left-leaning in her absence, I promise you, it’s going to get much worse. Not because Erin was a voice of restraint, but because she’d want it that way.

I usually say I’m going to miss the person or whatever, but yano, I think it speaks to the general caliber of the staff here that they leave and get good jobs at large established media companies. Except Raph, who just restores shit-bicycles for column inches and farts around in Brooklyn or wherever.

Once again, you seem to forget that there’s an entire country between I-5 and I-95. Where, yes, many millenials DO have buying power. Because instead of getting graphic design degrees with $50K in student loans, yet refusing to leave their podunk town of 3,000, they went straight to work for their dad’s electrical…

Every SUV is a fucking shit SUV. Fuck those abominations on wheels.

Theoretics is right. The answer will be a GTI or a Mazda 3 of some sort.
Go to Y****s on 33 and drive both.
NOTE: the 2019 GTI had a 6 year warranty, so if you find a nice low miles model 2019, you get a warranty through 2025 - just in time to buy an EV on your original timetable.

If Subaru made an electric Outback it would STILL be a rolling traffic jam. 

Wow!  Did a Dodge molest you as a child?

Not every brand can be Subaru so if this is what it takes to get the other half of the population into more efficient cars I’m fine with it

I can’t picture too many reasons a quick 4xe rollout can’t happen really fast on anything that has the ZF8HP, since the only major difference in hardware besides battery pack and ancillaries is the torque converter is swapped out for an electric motor.  The hardware is pretty common, the calibration base maps should…

I realized maybe it was blocked for him for some reason. It’s also tucked under an ad for me, so I can see someone missing it. 

“and it is a mystery to me who, exactly, wants a PHEV Jeep in America.”

Feather pillow = mild concussion 

Found the guy that was never in a truly earnest pillow fight.
