If only there were a catchy, one-line, popular saying to help in this situation.
Let me try.

“Also, usually when efficiency goes up, so does usage.”

I had one as a rental years ago. I have to admit, I didn’t hate it.

I’m betting F1 ownership wanted a dramatic finish, not a parade under yellow. Masi is just the fall guy.

Hindsight being 20/20, I agree this would’ve been the best decision (except ban any car adjustments/tire changes under a red flag). But it likely would’ve resulted in another boring Hamilton win, 8th title yada yada yada.

1st gear.

Agreed. Can you imagine how much BS will be thrown around in the resale market?

They have to leave the edgy and exciting market for the Integra.

The race is over...?

I have to disagree. I treated my ‘99 Passat wagon well, but it was definitely insolent. I bought it 3 yrs. oldfrom a VW dealer, thankfully with CPO warranty, which saved me a lot of pain in the first 2 years. Things that broke are not a result of abuse.

That was like my initial thought on the Honda HR-V and it’s place in the market.

Please tell me where I can find a house for $600K with a 4 car garage. In my city, $1 Mill gets you 2 bedroom bungalow with no garage.

Came here to comment on the steering wheel too.

Well, the i-whatever has been done to death, yet still persists.

Does anybody write songs about Cadillacs anymore? Beside the Escalade, I mean. That seems to be its own brand.
