Good point but those actually aren’t that bad anymore. Even costco carries tires for the i3 now. Thankfully, I didn’t buy it new so I’ve only had to experience the problems that weren’t solved over the first 8 years of the car’s life. On the other hand, nothing can help the AC compressor that likes to eat itself and co…

This has been proven to be very inaccurate. Most of the electric cars that condition the batteries in extreme weather are lasting much longer than anyone anticipated. 10-12 years and the batteries aren’t even close to dying. Most are maintaining 90% of their original ratings at that point. Remember when all those…

Would it help if I told you I have a bmw I3 that I paid too much for and it has tons of stupid little problems because cutting edge tech is pretty awful 10 years into its existence so now I have to drive it until it dies...all while it spends its time telling me the back doors are open...which isn’t possible while the…

Lol. Well, looks are subjective of course, but I was in the market for an ADV and the 890 Adventure is the one I liked the best. The flat headlight look of the Ducati and Kawasaki were a big turn off, and while I liked the Suzuki’s balance and refinement more, it lacked the creature comforts I wanted like cruise…

I was shopping for a new bike last year and KTM was on the list of options. Hell it was the best looking one in the segment as far as I’m concerned...except review after review of awful software issues and things just not working.

Counter:  My wife’s Sienna has a...thing...that is a gauge I guess...that says eco and power and you have no idea what the engine is doing at any time really because the hybrid system turns it on and off at will.  The needle moves but it doesn’t really tell you anything.

My wife’s car will start chiming once it is put in drive, even if the car doesn’t move. My driveway is all of 30 feet long.

Driver’s licenses should have real world tests. Back that F-350 around a corner into a parallel space. Oh you cant? Too bad then.

A single warning is fine. I cant stand my wife’s car that will chime more and more incessantly the longer time goes on and never stop. I’m just moving it in the driveway ffs!! Or at least shut the F up if I don’t go over 5mph.

That’s only partially true. We wanted the XSE, AWD, cement color, entertainment package. The sport model is built in the lowest numbers and dealerships during the pandemic (and still to a lesser extent) were simply getting allocations of whatever Toyota wanted to send them. Lots of the higher trim stuff but my wife…

Gotta know the market on what you want.

“Carburetors is better then all that fancy computer controlled nonsense.”

I owned a Syclone back in the 90s and it was very quick...but it wasn’t fast. 120...maybe...? And it really didn’t like anything over 90.   

That’s not what most people want though. Any state can vote and move to permanent standard time without federal approval. The issue here is congress must be involved to institute permanent DST as the standard time for states. People, by and large, want the adjusted time.

As the owner of a 2015 I3 with very similar miles and range, yup. Although I only lose about 30% when it’s really cold. (it will cycle the heater to maintain the battery above a certain temp) My heater has an eco mode...the defroster however, is full send or nothing, and that can be harsh with kids talking non-stop in…

They are the price of a car with none of the safety features. I’m not sure if that says more about the car industry or the side by side...

You’d think right? I tried that about 6 months ago and the car is still there.

The irony here is many subdivisions are built by one company and then the roads themselves are sold off to the county and the HOA has zero jurisdiction.

I’m so sorry.  Isn’t that against the Geneva Convention?  At the very least, it is a war crime.

“It should’ve been the modern Chrysler Sebring...” Why? Why would you wish that on anything ever? Those were awful awful vehicles. All the quality control of Chrysler in a convertible that ran sometimes...maybe...and was the ultimate penalty box rental car.
