Hertz really did get shafted by Tesla lowering the prices.

The sad thing is, I think the majority of rental car customers would get by just fine with an EV. In fact, since most rental car companies don’t make you recharge before returning the car, dropping it off is easier than ICE cars because you don’t have to worry…

Only on models that did not get the Navigation add-on. I have a fully loaded 2016 CR-V Touring with Navigation and I am not able to do this.

Ever driven one for any length of time? My wife loves ours and the seats are pretty comfortable and supportive. The interior looks about the same as everyone else’s interiors. 

Depending on the car and its radio layout, you can upgrade to a Carplay/Android auto unit for not a ton of money. I am cheap, so I haven’t done it yet. But I am eventually going to get one for my ‘07 Highlander.

Holy crap it took them long enough.

About damn time. They are going to sell like hotcakes but I fear dealer markups already

If you outlaw driving slowly in the left lane, only outlaws will drive slowly in the left lane. 

Good. Bring this to CT now too.

I don’t often agree with Republican lawmakers (especially in AZ), but in this case, bravo. And please talk to your colleagues in FL.

Weren’t you listening? Gas prices will go down because we’re going to drill for more oil. And I think Canada is going to pay for it, or something like that. Don’t get hung up to much on the details.

Hey Red-Hat dipshits! Know what would be a great way to keep costs for working folks down?

Really curious, what do you hate so much about the CVT - or CVTs in general?

I had a ‘24 Wilderness Crosstrek as a lender for 2 weeks, and....I dug it. But that may only be in comparison to my own super-basic ‘13 Crosstrek that was in for a bunch of work. Much quieter interior, smoothER ride, materials look and feel pretty nice. And the roof rails were rated to something insane, like 700 Lbs.…

Love my ‘23 Impreza, and $600 until it’s all mine.

No, I’m pretty sure this is still the case.  Maybe it’s not “advanced” anymore, but it’s still distracting and can be very confusing depending on who felt like writing the software that day.

I remember when he came home with a Riviera with this tech when I was a kid...I spent a long time in that car going through every button and function. My mom had a 1974 Buick Regal at the time.
