Wait, I thought Tesla said it could tow ‘near infinite mass’?

We just got a 2025 Honda Passport on Tom’s recommendation. We had been shopping for a 4Runner, but availability and price were not great. It has a ton of storage space, lots of amenities (and even more in the Black Edition for around $50k) and isn’t super duper massive. AWD is standard and it can tow 5000 lb. We ended…

Why do do make people think they need a dump truck-sized 4x4 just because they have a kid and occasionally buy groceries?

If someone is rejecting the current Bronco because it’s not child seat enough, the designers probably hit their actual target.

“We need more space (us, kid, dog, and assorted life type stuff), want something that is FUN to drive, and has the ability to tow.”

IRS is probably having a field day with “Influencer” Audits.  I mean, they are probably trying to wrap up as many audits of millionaires and billionaires as they can before January in case of a Trump win...you know when the GOP will stop all audits on the wealthy and the IRS will have to go back to auditing little…

It doesn’t work

Lawless YouTubers would just make more content out of getting audited and write the accountancy and legal bills off too. Ultimate content cycle!

They are either super desperate, or super stupid. You don’t retreat from major matured markets like this if you have any hope or any sense, because once you’ve got out of them you’ll never get back in.

I don’t know. I think in this market, something that sells for north of $250k might be the right answer.  Today’s market is crazier than A Trump Rally on Meth Mountain.

“Youtuber” = zero sympathy.

I have a real hard time caring for someone who can afford a $140K vehicle that’s depreciated that much 🤷‍♂️🤣

This seems relevant right now:

I LOVES me some OEM takeoffs.

Bar none, Lincoln has the best model names in the industry right now:

Firestone Destination LE3 is a good choice too.  Good all-season, we have them on our Odyssey.  Ride and handles great, even in wet weather.  Very comparable to the OEM Michelin set that came with the car. 

Take this Outlander Sport Ralliart edition:

Have you seen the Mirage R5 from about 10 years ago?

Since we’re dreaming, just give the Accord the full Type-R treatment. Give it all the same Type-R goodies that the Civic Type-R has - engine, suspension, shifter, seats, differential, styling.

Ya’ll, the answer is simple. Mazdaspeed5
