The 97-99 Maxima SE w/ Leather was a sleeper. The 02-03 Infinity I35 was as well. Even J30 Maximas from 89-94 were ballsier then the V20 Camry’s, and even the 91 V30 Camry (although the V30 Camry was much more refined).

Ford Edsel.

Are they going to call it Speed?

That headline about Rivian seems bias, no? Would it be prudent for any start up with the current headwinds of economic uncertainty not try and tighten its belt to weather the storm. JP Morgan’s Jamie Dimon also reiterated something similar. Don’t rely on another capital raise in a down round evaluation when you can…

It is supposed to be the EV take on a Land/Range Rover.  At its price point, does it compete?

Time to find a donor C63 and get to building: https://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/40257/building-a-mercedes-190e-evo-on-a-modern-amg-c63-chassis-took-8-years-and-more-money-than-god

PS I had a w201 93 190E 2.6 that I wanted to upgrade to the 3.0l-24v with a 2.3-16v 5-speed getrag tranny to have my own sleeper w201. I…

Thanks Steve. Curiosity bit me. Search FB Marketplace. Came across this super clean Ford Ranger for $1,000: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/576934457397773/

Now I’m getting a Geico quote. FML.

I’ve loved mid-size trucks. Dakotas because they can do it all primarily (I had to plow small lots but carry a full-size plow blade.) I will say everyone I know that had a Ridgeline loved it. And their second vehicle happened to be a minivan, usually a Sienna AWD or Odyssey. I know a family down the street that…

Aston Martin Cygnet. Would need to remove the floor for Fred Flintstone to fit in.

Considering they were going to canoodle and then split... Makes sense: https://www.motortrend.com/news/canoo-electric-skateboard-platform-hyundai-kia/

So my dreams of an 8-passenger EV for $60k are still on hold. Can I at least get the 6-passenger EV Pickup version while I wait?

I am really curious to see how a box becomes aerodynamic. Can it still have a snorkel though?

How about a well maintained Asian Hybrid that is loaded with leather, heated seats, etc: https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/69998aa5-25ed-4a36-b873-7b47d094606c/

Just curious. In this scenario, you would assume your car is charged up and has ~250-300 miles of range and in the future could be used to actually power your home ie Ford Lightning.

Most gas stations have lines for hours which is about the same as Rapid Chargers which usually tend to be up and running, but have…

I once went to purchase a car the minute I got notice of its availability. Completed the online information and everything. Later it is removed without any background and pops up a little bit later showing pending. Yup, they doctored it so someone else got it. I asked them about it, and they still have no response. VIN…

Power Ranger.
Maverick Thriftpower

R2T = Truck

I think the key word is change. Anyone saying jobloss due to the EV transition is shortsighted. It will take more techies to keep these batteries and motors serviceable and on the road safely. They still have brakes and wipers and tires... you know, typical routine maintenance items. And you’ll still have…

I lean the other way. I think the Maverick proves you can have a compact, mid size, and full size truck. Except the Mid-Size could also be unibody and reserve the Full-Size for Ladder Frames. Ford will fix what Honda couldn’t and make a better Ridgeline with the next Ranger.

That is how I see thing evolving. Because…

Eva should pay $22k and pocket the rest. How about a pre-owned 2016 Acura TLX SH-AWD with about 55k miles: https://www.lexusofbrooklyn.com/used/Acura/2016-Acura-TLX-25274db30a0e09716bd5de495158dd7d.htm
