Those Peugeot 3008's are hugely popular in Europe and for good reason. They are good looking, have really nice interiors and drive really well.

And you will invest another 5K a year keeping it running.

The Mitsubishi PHEV has been on sale in Europe for over 213 years and sold like hot cakes. They have a reputation of being very reliable and have more PHEV experience than any other manufacturer.

Sorry about the Cavalier...

My wife at the time had the same car only in the metallic sand color. Great fun to drive with the V6 and the manual and the kids loved the oscillating vents. People used to ask if it was a Lexus. The 95 was before they lumped up the exterior, too. I have always thought the coupe was beautiful and wished we had owned…

What an awesome backstory you’ve created out of two people you don’t know! You should be a writer.

I bet you would, you would classify it as a “micro aggression” or some such shit.

He was giving out a ticket and was giving a response to the complaining he was getting. No threat veiled or otherwise, has never fired his gun while an officer and before you start telling me he’s a racist as well (since you know so much about him even though you’ve never met him) he happens to be black. What other…

He left the force after 6 years, didn’t care for it and he’s a peaceful guy.

I don’t think he or the person he stopped took this so damn literal.

Not bad and I would give it a wary NP, but what I would really like is the Contour SVT. I had one when they were new and loved it, wish I had kept that one.

I have a friend who is ex-LAPD and he says this is how he addressed drivers who he had pulled over for a rolling stop. They would say, “Well I slowed down, what’s the difference?” and he would reply, “See this night stick? If I start hitting you on the head with it, would you rather I stop or slowed down?” and then he…

People poo poo the Outlander, but their PHEV technology is superb, they have been producing PHEV’s for over ten years now and they sold a ton of them in Europe where gas is very expensive. As for reliability, they are considered up there with Toyota over here. I bought a 2019 Outlander PHEV recently here in France and…

I agree with the Mazda 6, but would also recommend a used Lexus GS 350. Great comfort, quick, good handling, reliable and good resale down the road.

I always liked the way these looked. When they first came out they really did look like spaceships and the interiors were way more modern and attractive than Ford or GM’s offerings. so a sentimental NP based on memory and the very nice condition this is in. Also, the tweaked renault platform it was based on makes for…

A few years ago when the TNG platform came out, I rented one while my 2013 Fusion was in the shop. The Camry was brand new, I was the first renter, and I was surprised by how disappointed I was by the noise and ride. When I got my Fusion back a few days later I was amazed that even with 85K miles on it, it rode…

Quite nice, but no AC makes it ND.

I bought a first generation Lincoln Aviator at the end of the run in 2005 and it came with an $11,000 mark down. I loved that thing, fast, comfortable and it was not just a tarted up Explorer. I still have a soft spot for Lincolns and I like the fact that they are just going after the luxury market, if I didn’t live…

I did 35K miles a year for many years and my last and best car was the Lexus GS 350. Super comfortable, reliable and more sporting than the barges. One thing that make Lexus the best over long term is the interior is made to last 300K miles. After 150K miles the leather on my GS was still in excellent shape as were…

I live in France and recently bought a 2019 Outlander PHEV. These have been very popular here and have a reputation for reliability. What surprised me most is how solid a vehicle this is, it’s also rather large especially by European standards. I am getting 40 kilometers on electric, more than I usually use in a day…
