I’m curious to see if this will force Aston Martin to change their warranty policies like CarMax did with Range Rovers.

I think they look good though. I feel like the Escalade has become slightly less ostentatious and more classy.

I cannot wait. You’re truly a skilled writer for making me laugh as much as you do.

If I remember right from your book it had more rust than urban Detriot. Any idea when the next book is out? I have a 9 hour flight in October with someone who hasn’t ever flown before, maybe never even been out of this state.

...but most Range Rover people I talk to (including myself) think the G-Wagen goes a little too far down the “asshole” scale for serious consideration.

Which is probably why Ford builds the Fusion there.

I think the more important question is, why is Jaguar calling their SUV the F-Pace? It reminds me of the F-Type. I don’t want a sporty SUV. I want something that I can sit high over other, lesser motorists with my Starbucks in one hand, my iPhone in the other, and on occasion look at the road.

And then there’s the handling, which I call ponderous: essentially, you turn the wheel, and the Murano CrossCabriolet ponders where to go.

That was the day I got to drive an overpriced convertible SUV that looks like an angry clothing iron.

She bought it new. She’s just a little crazy. But she brings the mail in when I travel and doesn’t steal anything, so she’s not too bad. She does like to give us interior design recommendations though.

Not in the slightest. I even sent a picture to my mom and asked her what it looked like. General consesus at her office is angry penis.

My neighbor assaults Honda’s reliability because her CR-V had so many things go wrong with it right after she bought it. I told her to get a lawyer consult on the Lemon Law. She told me there was no such thing and that I was crazy. Ah, gotta love her.

I call it the worst piece of design since the one-eyed London Olympic mascot that looked like an angry penis.

Am I mean for pointing out it looked as though your friend had a hickey? I suppose it could’ve just been something with the camera. But you can really see something on his neck between 3:15-3:20.

Other automotive journalists should take note of your varied rating system. I believe you need to create your own rating, or something like “The DeMuro Seal of Approval” which would consist of a Cheeto (or Dorito!) stained fingerprint. Obviously it should first be awarded to MaxCare from CarMax.

Tell me Doug, how conspicuous did you feel trying to jump start your Hummer with your Range Rover? That had to lead to some judgement from pedestrians.

Because it’s absolutley gorgeous.

Not going to read, but I’ll type my guess first and see if I’m right. Because it’s Doug, I’m going to guess Volkswagen. Who make great vehicles such at the Eos and the Routan that sell in droves.

Is the next car going to be a Porsche then? Maybe a classic one, or maybe PCNA will give their former President some kind of loaner vehicle for a couple of months for a long term test drive? Provided he doesn’t crash it into a downed tree...I loved that story.

This would make another great video, Doug!
