“After we got home and pulled the twins out of the car; I drove it straight to a Dodge dealer and traded it in on a 2012 Charger SRT8.”

So the article shows the perfect car fpr his needs and then your experts go on to suggest four entirely different cars... Uhhhh uhmkay.

It’s a Korean copy of a Chinese knock off of a unreliable British SUV

The first dozen or so times I heard “Scotiabank Arena”, my brain went “ the fuck are they playing in Ottawa for?"

You know what? CD players are good. I miss being able to go to a show, buy a band’s album, and then listen to it on the way home.

If it doesn’t depreciate by 40% in the first three years, and replacement parts don’t cost three times the price of normal parts, then it’s not a luxury car.

Sorry to hear that your wife makes car buying desisions for you. The only way to retaliate is to just by a mono and make her walk places.

When do we give Purdue Pharma an award for their continued support of the opioid crisis?

2 years ago I thought the Ascent was going to basically print money. I wanted one but the spouse didn’t think it was big enough (she has now hit the trash cans twice and the garage door once). Read some stuff last year about how it was essentially cannibalizing their other models, but I’m not so sure now.

Next Mazda will tease us by putting this amazing sounding engine in their jaw droppingly beautiful 6 wagon, and dangling it like a carrot in front of our faces, never to be had.

That is fairly easy :

Neutral: I would turn to Mary Barra and say: “We need to make the wheel arches on our trucks more square. That’s what the people want.” Then I would clatter my bug arms and fly away.

Sorry; I’m not buying a car that was built non-union in the U.S. 

Yes. You most definitely want a Lincoln. I have owned 2 continentals so far (RIP my first 2018, totaled with 29k miles at 10 months old.) And I’m on my second black label. I had the choice to buy a LOT of cars for $82,000 but this Conti won it. Its fast. Like, beats 5.7 Hemis, STis and GT mustang’s ALL DAY type fast…

I mean, if they were going for “murderous street sweeper,” then they nailed it. 

The 2.5 turbo CX5 drives extremely well too. Cross shopped one vs a Honda CRV. The CRV is bigger, but the Mazda drives a ton better. 

How easy is it to drive one handed while holding a cell phone Pizza style? Because 99% of Rave-4s drivers I see do that, so that is a key feature for the vehicle.

I have a 2018 3.6R Touring and it fucking sucks. 

I have a friend who literally bought a Suburban for “that week when mom comes and she brings her dog.”
