The MSRP doesn’t really matter. Only the lease payment does.

A lot of lazy dealerships let their internet info auto fill based on the VIN when they post their cars online, and don’t know enough to correct it for the actual equipment, so once you search for heated steering wheel, you’ll need to scrutinize the photos to try and find the actual button for it. It’s a pain.

Every car I’ve ever seen with this problem has been a late 90s early 2000s Honda/Acura. Is this s common problem in old Hondas?

I will attempt to decode his concerns: Low flow toilets and faucets are causing people to flush more than once to get everything to go down, and causing them to keep the faucet running longer than if they just had an old fashioned faucet. Am I right?

If I recall correctly, Mazda was selling $24k Mazda3s way back then, loaded with leather and navigation. They’ve been trying to be premium since the early 90s.

So Ford is putting EV development money into it’s best selling, highest customer loyalty vehicles instead of creating $40k EVs that look like $15k econoboxes. Makes sense to me. Tesla showed all the automakers a blueprint for successfully selling electric vehicles: make them DESIRABLE to regular drivers, not just to

So the use case is advertising and even quicker notifications (most of which are advertising anyway). That’s the real problem. No one is going to shell out for a pair of glasses (that they might not even need for vision) just to see text advertisements in their face and occasionally see some AR advertisement from a

I’m still trying to figure out 9 generations. The chronological photo shows 6 vehicles, but really there are only 4 different platforms there:1991-2001, 2002-2009, 2010-2019, 2020+

If lack of role models for black students is not a problem, why is there such an effort to desegregate schools? In Hartford CT, the city has spent billions building magnet schools to try and convince suburban whites to bus their kids INTO Hartford, with the express goal to have black kids sit next to white kids in the

You have to go with crake pipe, because that’s the street this Maserati is going to be parked on next. 

The real correct answer is to not buy a flashy car at all. If you’re even vaguely not ugly you can get laid using any dating app, so why waste the money? Buy a duplex and move out of your parent’s house. Live in 1/2 of the duplex and rent the other. Now you live for free. Save up and buy another duplex. Keep

The Mach E was almost a boring FWD EV. Just shows that making low effort boring cars is a CHOICE automakers make. 

GM has a long history of being first with innovative tech, but also a long history of building the wrong car for the moment.

I wish they had carried the Mustang theme to the interior. Would really have been too hard to have the double cowl with the giant screen in the middle?

There is a huge difference between what Ford has done with the Mach E and what Chevy did with the Blazer. The Blazer is a 10 years late generic crossover - there is literally no unique selling buying for the Blazer to make anyone buy it vs the Edge, Murano, etc. The Mach E is at least a RWD/AWD EV crossover. The

I get that most ride share drivers have to work with what they’ve got, but a 15mpg CTS-V is making every trip a money loser for this guy.

The problem with the design from a “Mustang” perspective is that the rear window line doesn’t mimic the real Mustang. And the rear should have a little bit of a trunk lid look to it. Of course, then it would just look like an X6

Driver’s cancellations rates are tracked, and drivers could get deactivated for doing it too much.

You’re assuming that the app is showing you accurate information. As a driver, I frequently pull up on people who say “the app says you’re still 5 minutes away.” It’s 2019, but the internet still works like 1999.

Like you, many drivers run Uber and Lyft at the same time. You may be waiting extra while your driver drops off a passenger from the other app, or you might just get ignored if the other app offers your driver a better trip than you are taking. Zero loyalty works both ways.
