Sorta. There are only 2 trims and no individual options. You either get the base model with 18" wheels, cloth seats, smaller touchscreen, etc. etc., or you get the Performance model, with all the luxury/tech doodads plus 19s, bigger brakes, and LSD. One assumes Nissan did this to get a model in under $40,000 while…

The “FAKE TAXI” sticker on the back tells me everything I need to know.

Around here you see folks running around with magnetic dealership plates slapped onto the backs of their cars. You could rack up some serious miles on dealer plates without being bothered by police.

Oh I’d so LOVE to write that article.

Man, if regressives could read, they’d be pissed at that shirt!

“A little tacky” just means they didn’t go Full Miami.

<$8500 USD.

I say just get the best Prius you can for $8,500. Your wallet will thank you.

My close friend, who was in his early 20's at the time, put a $2000 stereo system with a subwoofer in a company car. Yes, he returned the car with the system still installed.

I installed a LeBra on my ‘86 MR2. I thought car bras looked so cool. In less than a year, the trapped moisture, pine needles, and grime meant that while the fascia remained chip-free, it was now scratched and dull with bubbling rust at the contact points of the wheel arches.

Tried to explain this to my friend’s 20 year-old son. Just because a car is older it doesn’t mean it’s cool/good/classic. 

What makes it a classic? The terrible handling? The uncomfortable seats? The lack of survivability in an accident?

Ho-hum. Just your basic (very) work truck, with many miles of accumulated dust, dirt and dents . . . and an owner who is taking advantage of the alternate reality of used car pricing.

People donate money. They use those donations to pay themselves to drive around and be public douchebags. They don’t ever want this to end.

We are done listening to your lies. We bought them for a little bit. We thought you guys actually believed in what we were standing for and we actually believed you were going to do what we asked you to do as our representatives.

Mid-pandemic I moved to 30 wooded acres in Appalachia. I thought a SxS would be great for tooling around and maybe gathering firewood.

Then I had a tree fall across my driveway. Processing that gave me a real hankering for a tractor. 4x4 Subcompact or utility tractors with a loader and backhoe come in cheaper than a…

After I read past the slightly clickbait headline I realised that I couldn’t prove you wrong, because your actual theory - that side by sides occupy the same role in most owner’s lives as boats do - is correct.

They used to be cheap. Like six grand for the top tier one. Then Polaris realized they could make a shitton of money off of insecure people who wanted to play redneck and actual rednecks who had gotten too old and frail to ride ATVs anymore. Yamaha kicked in with theirs, and then that started a war about horsepower,…

Grayed forever, but what the fuck. I live in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, and those assholes tear the shit out of everything. Trails, dunes, forest, everywhere they go. Everyone I know that has one is a backwards hat bro-jerk. Cool thing with SXS’s is you can drive them drunk. Just stomp on the gas, and no…

For the experiences you’ve had with them, yeah I can see it. Access to vast amounts of land that are available to the pursuit is kind of prerequisite #1 though.
