I need to write this down and remember it.

The interiors on these were embarrassing, even new.

I looked it up and you are correct. The 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 4.7 had 235 HP. There was a H.O. version of this engine in the works, but it came out after the Prowler was canceled and only added about 30 HP.

I haven’t seen this anywhere. If it’s true, it’s great news!

Not being arrested just for rolling coal is bad enough, but getting away with attempted murder or manslaughter charges? That GoFundMe better include money for a lawyer.

I had an NC that I adored and wish I still had, but the ND is a major increase in quality and fuel economy. However, I’m not a large person and being the passenger in an ND is torture. The driver’s seat is the place to be.

Could you get all your Press friends to ask the same Ford reps over and over why the Hybrid isn’t available in AWD? I would have a reservation in now if it was an option.

If the online form doesn’t work, spray painting a penis around it will.

I think he meant that it only took two days to fix it, and his city is much smaller than Chicago.

This is a bad take. You did read his complaint, right? Any Lincoln that bottoms out on a speedbump means the bump is too high and/or too sharp of an angle. Just because he bottomed out doesn’t mean he’s a shitty driver.

I think they are making a mistake not including a regular EX model. Forcing leather on people who also want the turbo is going to annoy Honda fans. Also, no colors for manual cars that cost $30k??? It’s almost like they don’t want us to buy them so that when they drop the manual they can turn around and blame us for…

My 1976 Datsun 260Z has these too. I think the air comes from the fenders or wheel wells.

I wish every sedan/hatchback had a fold-flat front seat. Putting in long objects would be way easier.

Came here to ask the same: why does it look like that?

I’m in the same boat as you. I would love an EV to commute with, but for $11k (I think there is a federal rebate, up to $2500?) I start thinking about Miatas and Boxsters. If they released something around $8,000, that changes things. 

I came here to mention this too. I had to squint at the screen to make sure I was really reading something this stupid on a car enthusiasts blog. I couldn’t really pay attention to the rest of the article after that... just looked at the pictures. Beautiful car! I wish more of them existed in the wild.

My parents had one of these and absolutely loved it. It was fairly reliable, other than almost every interior feature eventually not working. The only reason they traded it was because it couldn’t tow enough for their RV needs. Also it required premium fuel and used a lot of it.

In college I worked at an auto auction and drove a bunch of cars. I drove a nice MR2 Spider around the lot to get it washed and whatnot, and I honestly liked my mom’s NB Miata more. Sure, the MR2 was technically faster (because of weight), but I didn’t like the interior layout, and it had zero trunk space. For someone…

I don’t think the price plummeted enough, though. They settled around $35k which was still a lot for the powertrain and hit to practicality.

Came here to say this. Yuck.
