Came here to post something similar. CUV’s like the Macan give me hope that while all wagons and hatchbacks seem to be disappearing, we can still enjoy a similar experience with the purchase of a set of springs.

I know how this goes....Yawn. 

We’re making similar points but as an American I’m simply stating that the GOP USED to have pretty consistent and fundamental economic and social policy ideals that defined and guided the party that have mostly all gone to the wayside. Now all they care about is winning and have somehow fallen to a cycle where they…

That might have been true before he became President, but it’s clear that the GOP has fully shifted their platform to align with Trump. The GOP as it stands today IS Trump and they’ve walked away from traditional fiscal conservative values and free-market idealism for a new form of command and control economics that…

Yeah, I think Ford puts too much faith in their customer’s ability and/or willingness to adapt their driving style differently to the ecoboost.

An Ecoboost can and will beat a naturally aspirated engine for efficiency if someone consciously drives it in the manner needed to achieve that goal.

For everyone else who is…

Trucks just need to stop being so large. I said it in another post with tongue in cheek but now I’m going to call out some facts.

Look at the Silverado. It’s got a front air-dam that cuts the front approach and ground clearance down tremendously. It does not appear to be a separate piece of plastic but rather an…

Yup. I guess until the idea that having a truck so large and imposing makes the driver look small and puny makes it mainstream, the problem will continue.

But seriously, this guy looks like a dwarf next to the grilles of those Silverados. He looks to be at least around 6 feet tall on his own, but his shoulder is barely…

Here’s an idea, make these GD monstrosities smaller and more utilitarian. Anyone can take one look and realize the average pickup truck on the market is 50% larger than it has to be to get the job done.

I know weird subsidy regs incentivize the production of large trucks but those have existed for decades. The state of…

How about this, if a Cop is caught planting evidence they, by default are given an equivalent sentence of the maximum sentence whatever object’s possession charge would carry?

Meaning if they plant some drugs that could sentence someone up to 15 years in prison for carrying...then the cop gets 15 years in prison.

This…

interesting take. I don’t have a pilots license but I have a close circle of friends who are all Army helicopter pilots. They feel the opposite is true on the military front. Yes, there’s a big push for drone tech on the military side but the vast majority of the investment is going into manned aircraft tech.

I guess…

Very true, if you asked me 10 years ago when the Crossover trend started taking shape I predicted that eventually the acceptance for sport wagons would increase where folks wanting a car-like drive but more utility would buy a wagon/estate.

I was wrong and still can’t quite figure out why people would rather drive…

Grills are apparently considered frontal nudity these days and must all be blacked out entirely to avoid being flagged by the FCC who apparently regulates front Facia Content.

One of two F1 races I ever attended myself lol.  

Lancia already spent a good several years teasing a Ferrari-powered reboot of the Stratos which ended in disappointment in 2012.

I’m...having Deja-vu

I’m sure she could find a guest spot on Bill O’Reilly’s podcast, but she might want to bring a bodyguard to the studio. 

It’s annoying if your commute is ONLY traffic. Hence why I drive an outback automatic as a daily and my WRX stays at home most of the time.

Welcome to Top Gear America: British edition. 

Rory Reid was the most talented presenter of the recent line-ups. He was the most genuine and the funniest too IMO. Why they’d let him go makes no sense. Now we have another 1-2 seasons of faked buddy awkwardness to fuss through again.

Sad. 

Can we write an article on why it’s dumb for automakers to not offer models in the US based on proportionate sales figs is dumb?
