It’s not giving them away, it’s getting them into a Mustang if they still want a small car, and they are re-releasing the Ranger for a reason. The market is already trending in their favor towards their higher margin vehicles. There is no sane business person who would see a ~9% decline per year in car sales for the…

Of course. To be clear: Ram ECM hot mess braking fiasco < GM’s eaton locker that takes a little wheel spin to engage < a full mechanical locker that is driver-selectable

You “Resist” types used to be against the shadowy CIA that topples foreign governments and the FBI that bugged MLK and had blackmail files on almost every semi-famous person on Earth...and now you think that they’re suddenly the good guys and Trump, the outsider is the villain. You watch multi-millionaire late-night…

2009 GM Exec: Only pussies need a tailgate step

Let’s not forget that Chevy’s Howie Long ads orginally branded the Ford version by trying to poke fun at it. Ford Marketing basically said, “Thanks we couldn’t think of a great name for it, but ‘Man Step’ certainly sticks,” and went on their way.

That’s the one feature missing on my current car that I wish it had, and I don’t even think it’s offered as an option. Hyundai, Kia and Ford seem to make it relatively easy to option ventilated seats, while a lot of the traditional “luxury” brands I’ve looked at (Acura, Mercedes, Jag, Audi) make it nearly impossible…

I have a rollup cover on mine. I roll it up when I haul things like my ATV, dirt, rocks, etc and roll it down when I want to keep my bicycle out of the rain or putting luggage in the back. Why does everyone hate on truck owners so much? If you drive a Mustang slowly are you an idiot because you’re not using it for…

Aha. Challenge accepted :) I’m probably the only person to ever take a RR Evoque off road.... :)

Since it’s a TRD Pro, it get’s a locking rear diff, crawl control, skid plates, Fox suspension, I think terrain management, and some other goodies I can’t remember off the top of my head.

Are those Raptor dealer markups or just MSRP for more loaded Raptors?

There are few things that I find more frustrating to transport than a bike. Or, god help you, multiple bikes.

I’ve had cars of all sorts of colors, from boring silver to bright yellow and currently bright VW red.

I like color, but I like a variety of colors and like to change them often. That’s why my living room furniture and floor are neutral colors, so I can change the paint on the walls for $50 and a weekend’s work.

So where I think he is trying to go with this is that the “Venture Capitalist”/ Shark Tank mindset is what is killing America. It used to be that shareholders were in it for the long game, and businesses could spend money that would take away from quarterly profits if it meant developing products that would be an…

One of the best ideas-that-went-nowhere to come out of the 2008 crash was a penny-a-share stock transaction tax. That alone would be a big help in getting a return to a “buy to hold” mentality where shareholders would prioritize the long term health of the company over immediate returns; microtransactions are killing…

You’re not stating any facts at all. What do you even mean by the front wheels spinning at the same speed? What do you think happens with a 2WD car? They spin slower somehow?

You better go tell Audi all their cars are dangerous on the road. I had no idea I was so close to death in my Allroad or my old XJ w/ AWD.

Um gee... Id hate to contradict your experiences with my 20 years and over 250000 miles of driving full time 4wds in Utah but im with my friend Garrett down below... What are you talking about?

Uh yeah.... Me too

“Full time 4wd is terrible and not even safe at highway speeds.”
