These things didn’t do the quality part very well, but objectively speaking this was a tin can with four wheels and a V8 attached. That means light and fast of the stupid variety. They became pretty awesome bargains later on so you were running with newer model 5.0s and SRTs a decade later, though I can’t find a…

Eh I accept it. It’s like people calling wheels “rims.” We know it’s the wrong term but we also know what people are referring to.

Oh darn. I thought too wishfully. :/

I’m just glad that a bunch of billionaires and corrupt politicians now have these private cruise ships that became virtually useless overnight.

IDK if it’s the low credit score tendencies in me suggesting this, but $55k for this isn’t a bad deal at all. Especially considering a Red Sport 400 without AWD starts at around $56k here, you get tons more goodies like more power and Recaros (even though most bits are kinda ricey).

Good point, but let me ask. Where’s the part of your analysis where the beltline of these cars is so tall that people barely 5 feet tall walking right in front are basically invisible?

So we can respond in minutes to a janky submarine and do nothing for a community of thousands because the collective net worth of that submarine was more than that of a town.

If only those railway companies and transportation orgs could dip into their record profits/budgeting just a bit more to actually make it a feasible job, but how dare you cut into that 8-figure yearly compensation package, they’re BARELY scraping by!

That’s the problem. The government is no longer in control of the current transportation system, telling us that “the free market decided cars are best.” Hell, I looked on Google regarding the most efficient form of transportation and some totally unbiased institute had their research study highlighting that cars are…

I wonder if that growing trend for CUVs and SUVs is thanks to the North American-born trend for larger vehicles. So many places in Europe wouldn’t normally have the capacity to keep such large vehicles and yet the companies that sell there are making the express decision to not build anything that’s considered…

Amazing how corporations can start making excuses about raising prices and bleeding people dry. Everyone knows what’s happening but nobody can act on it. What a joke.

As much as I am not an advocate for big stupid trucks (especially in cities), I actually wouldn’t mind this big stupid truck.

Oh no, now that you mention it I literally cannot unsee it.

Wow, that was very insightful. Did you also wanna tell that to the manager?

This is the kind of thing that prevents people from getting into trains and supporting mass transit. It’s sad that our infrastructure is literally the worst in the world and nobody wants to see that change, not even the people who are supposedly making money off all this.

And for those instances, I think that’s perfectly fine. It’s not like public transportation is actually feasible in every corner of the world because there’s the cost of running the system (acquiring vehicles, building infrastructure, maintaining it). But for a good majority of the population (those living at the…

Suggesting there isn’t a climate crisis is like saying you can pull yourself up by your bootstraps, get a minimum wage job to pay for college, and work that same burger flipping place to get you a car, a house, and a feasible salary for you and your family of 4 plus pension.

It’s already hard enough to find a small car when everyone’s starting to abandon them in the US, now all of a sudden Europe wants to take a page out of America’s book and turn their driving experiences into SUV hellscapes.

Those damn things don’t need to get any bigger than they already are, and they are already too damn big.

Honestly I think it’s just easy to rhyme “RAV4" with other words. You can probably do the same for Sentra, Civic, Accord, or Corolla, but I think nothing drives the point home that you’re driving a “lame soccer mom car” more than rapping about the RAV4.
