I’m a little confused who the demo is supposed to be for this. I’ll be 30 soon, have no student debt, own a home and have a great job that includes a company car, so I feel like Harley should try to appeal to people like me. Except I cannot justify spending as much on a motorcycle as we did on my wife’s new crossover…

We took a trip to Indianapolis for a funeral 2 weeks ago. Took us 11 hours to travel roughly 700 miles, including stopping for gas twice and a few bathroom breaks. EV range of 300-350 miles would have meant at least 2 additional hours added which I find too long. Get to the point where I’m able to travel 800-900 miles…

I’m in agreement with you on the longer range. I’d want at least 300 miles of range just to touch an EV, but 400-500 miles on a charge would be great even if it took upwards of an hour to charge. My wife and I love taking road trips for a weekend vs a longer vacation we have to take off a week for and fly to, but…

I’m 6ft and look at the roof, so the car isn’t low and I thought I’d have seen more than the antenna sticking up and then sky behind me. A small car I expect to disappear, but not midsize CUV. Apparently I learned the camera angle is adjustable, but I doubt many drivers are changing it, especially the guys buying them…

I’m hoping we get something akin to this as well. I’d love to see more road courses and short tracks. A few of the tracks that’s provide real good racing should have two dates, but it’s time to start changing up the schedule. I see no reason for Cup not to race in Canada or Mexico if Xfinity/Nationwide/Busch/whatever…

Agreed. Was riding behind a new Sierra Denali with the camera rear view and my wife got so close I could see fine into the truck to see what that driver saw. Yes the camera eliminated the “blind spots” created by the rear of the cab, but the camera was fixed on the tailgate, so the angle would change depending on the…

I agree, the more electrical components we keep adding the more issues were having. Actual mechanical systems seem to only be doomed to failure by poor maintenance or the OEM skimping on quality on a particular part, but almost every new car I’ve dealt with at work since 2012 has had some kind of weird electrical…

Other than the additional space, my wife’s favorite feature of her 19 Santa Fe is the audio controls. We previously had a 17 Civic with the slide and while she didn’t mind, I hated it.

Not only that, but the long term quality of the interiors isn’t pretty bad too. I sat in a 2017 Model S last week, leather on the seats was cracked and headliner sagging in areas. Really looked like a car from 20 years of wear, not 2.

After Hurricane Harvey hit Houston I went out there for insurance claims, then got voluntold to drive to Florida after 2 weeks to work Hurricane Irma. My company got me a hotel on the western side of Tampa and I was given claims in Okeechobee, about 150 miles away. I’d leave the hotel at 7am, go write like 4 or 5…

It’s a silly complaint. For everyday livability, a Highlander should be better than a 4Runner, or a Traverse better than a Tahoe, but for me I like the handling of BOF SUVs. I’m biased because I learned to drive in an 04 Z71 Suburban, but I really like the way big trucks handle. I’m not a fan of the 4Runner/Tacoma…

My first car, 1989 Prelude Si has no cup holders, but the seat boosters were the perfect distance from the emergency brake lever to stick a large cup from Taco Bell on each side. I could go around cloverleaf on ramps at normal speed and those cups would stay in place. 

Question, if you were to scrape along a car like that, would you realistically feel it in the cab? In investigate insurance claims, and the amount of cars I see that were legitimately hit by a much larger vehicle while unoccupied makes me think that some of these rigs are so heavy they have no idea they made contact…

This happened to my parents years ago. They won a raffle at a Relay For Life, like a $5 buy in ticket for a new car. My mom and dad both bought tickets to help the cause, but my dads ticket won a brand new Camry. He promptly turned around and sold it since we didn’t really need it and the $5kish tax bill on it really…

Is there a list out somewhere with everything? I’d love to see how poorly The Mighty Ducks cartoon has aged.

It’s no different than when BMW started to introduce M-Sport to slot between the pedestrian models and actual M badged cars. Where Cadillac went wrong was releasing this before the top spec V series. Had they released a CT5-V Blackwing or whatever first, I think people would understand this move better.

You’re correct on the last point. People don’t get rid of their newer Tahoe for a Tesla X when gas goes up. They sell it to Carmax and get a more fuel efficient used car so they’re still spending the same or less each month even after prices keep going up.

It’s definitely a taste you don’t realize you like until you’ve had a food multiple times only to find out it’s Greek/middle eastern. I swore I hate Greek food after trying hummus as a 10 year old at a fair, now I use what would be considered Greek spice profiles at least 1-2 times per week for dinner. What I will say…

As someone who was a Raiders fan as a kid (because my cousin gave me a hand me down Raiders T-shirt) and a Steelers fan as an adult (because my father in law pays for me my ticket to multiple games per year) I’m loving this move. 

I worked claims during in Houston after Harvey back in 2017. I can’t count how many customers I had that claimed floodwater damage and I couldn’t find evidence of it. I literally had one customer tell me that she had water up to the dash, car didn’t have a lick of rust on it. Turns out it was running rough because of…
