Great little trucks, but absolutely deadly for winter driving. Even with winter tires and weight in the back end it took very little to send it spinning.

One of my pet peeves, seems like 95% of the time it's a Honda.

Wow, I may actually be part of the very small demographic that would be perfect for. I need a small(ish) 4wd vehicle for beekeeping. You don’t want to go too fast with a load of bees on board anyways, and the vibrations from a diesel keep them calm...

So is it Monsanto or Syngenta paying you to spout thier talking points?

Wow. Your clear, dispassionate, and well-reasoned arguement has convinced me (What I might say if you actually presented an arguement instead trying to attack me as well with the ‘anti-science rhetoric).

No. GMO is the acronym for a very specific set of techniques used to cut and paste genetic material from one organism to another. It tells me a lot.

Capitalist markets rely on consumers making INFORMED decisions.

I want to know all of those things, including whether the genome of the organisms I am eating were modified through artificial means.

Conflating selective breeding with direct genetic modification (cutting and pasting genes from one organism to another) serves no purpose other than obfuscation. The FDA may be sticking with thier ‘substantial equivalence’ position, but in reality these are fundamentally different means of modifying DNA.

Yep, if you want comfortable seats, be average sized. 6'3 + almost every seat ever made= no lower back support (and seats with adjustable lumbar support do nothing either, because they still do not align with the part of my back needing support.

So what do you think of Catholic church’s track record then?

Money really. After the wars of the last 15 years only 3 countries are left with independent central banks (not controlled by the Rothchild family). They are N. Korea, Iran, and Cuba.

Not currently, but Christianity doesn't have a great track record historically.

Really? I think he’d be horrified that his warning was not heeded, and appalled at the consequences.

ok, obviously the person they called was a an exterminator, not a beekeeper as stated. A real beekeeper could have had those bees hived and out of there in an hour.

So I'm guessing we can say goodbye to most manuals now? Can't see most manufacturers spending more to add this option to manual models with low sales volumes (which is most of them in North America really).

The dealership and my insurance company both classify it as a sub-compact CUV, Which is why I asked. It does have the ground clearance and seating position to qualify (being able to sit upright rather than in ‘race car recliner’ mode was a big part of the reason I bought one being 6'4). Of course the great cargo…

No Kia Soul? Or did the lack of awd disqualify it?

Yeah, looks fine from the windscreen back. That front end though? Hideous. The flat-top fender is awful, and those headlights make everything else about the front end look even worse.
