I dunno. I had a Mystique with the regular 2.5 V6 and the 5-speed, and that car was actually a lot of fun to drive. I can imagine with more horses and torques and a tighter suspension it’d be an absolute riot.

TGAC(Top Gear After Clarkson) is horrible. It has nothing to do with the hosts although the Screaming Guy does suck pretty bad. It’s more the producing and writing. I bet you could take an old script and run the Joey and Screaming Guy through it and it would be a decent show. Obviously that won’t work as we’ve seen…

“Granted I am a horrible evil parent, I dont have back seat entertainment, they are not allowed to have ipads, and I will tell them to stop it when they are doing things to each other and making them whine. I am the scourge of parents everywhere.. I’m a monster....”

I easily fit 3 busy kids in a BMW X3. you really don’t need a canyonero sized vehicle. Honestly why is it that everyone thinks that each child needs at least 4 square feet of space around them? They don’t. All three sit in back safely, and their crap fits in back. No johnny does not need 6 soccer balls to bring with…

Amercian buffalo is an acceptable common term. Don’t get your PC panties in a bunch.

The fact that your avatar is no longer yellow is really throwing me off in the comments.

The real limiting factor of the new Titan XD is not its rated tow capacity. Its the cargo carrying capacity. It just doesn’t have enough. You *MAY* get close to towing 13k lbs, but only in the 2 door with half a tank of fuel and a “vertically-challenged” driver. I am in the market for a 5th wheel trailer for the…

Agreed on the Centerlines! Terrible choice ... Rally wheels are the right answer for this car.

Worst thing I’ve forgotten in the backseat? A pound of bacon that slipped out of the grocery bag and sat under my driver's seat for...a few weeks. A few 90-degree days to get the interior temp up to 130+ and I found the source pretty quickly. Worst thing I've found in the backseat, forgotten by someone else? Uh....it…

Then how will the hookers breathe??

Me, reading your comment:

”..and it’s something you only use in very vigorous driving...”

I feel like out of the 3 “American” automakers right now... Ford is the only one doing things right. Dodge and Chevy just don’t get it.

Doesn’t seem like a bad car at all. Could make for a fun project, winter beater, or gas-sipping daily driver.

Particularly the engine, which holds explosions.

1st Gear: This demonstrates the fundamental problem with CAFE. Forcing the manufacturers to make small, fuel efficient cars doesn’t change what people want to buy. To quote Bob Lutz, “reducing fuel consumption by forcing automakers to sell smaller and more frugal vehicles is like fighting the nation’s obesity epidemic…

Ah, that’s the inevitable signal gas prices are gonna skyrocket in six months. Everybody get ready for it.

This truck surge is going to blow up in our faces when gas prices inevitably go back up. I look forward to picking up a gas guzzler on the cheap when that time comes.

Honda Accord. You can get it with 3-pedals and it is a damn enjoyable daily driver. You can have it as a hybrid or a powerful V6. It is comfy, affordable, reliable. You can fit real adults in the back seat and it also has a sizable trunk. It’s not a 3-series, but it’s also not a total bore to drive.
