I agree, I had one for 5 years. Sporty and fun, 40 mpg on regular gas, surprisingly practical despite being a coupe

Not sure it qualifies for a car the no one thinks about but the 2004 era Honda Civic coupe was a great fun little car and the last of the small civics with simple lines before they started ballooning in size and baroque styling

i just received my tesla at the beginning of october and so far my electric bill is up $30-40 per month and I probably drive 18,000 miles per year. more than I thought it would be but considering i was paying around $40-50 per fill up in my previous vehicle its still a significant savings. not to mention all the time…

in a car clearly not made for that

it also needs to accelerate, de accelerate and turn properly

all those subarus had a fairly inferior gearbox. I had a 2009 outback 2.5XT manual and it was easily the weakest part of the car even though I loved it.

isn’t there a euro regulation that turn signals must have a 3rd blinking amber light on the side (like in the side mirror), while that is absent from US regulations. I guess that is different from side marker lights although they could serve the same purpose maybe?

Cars were definitely more interesting when they worked less often and were more likely to kill you. Humans are weird. 

most home inspectors will write up electric service to homes with only 100 amps in 2018.

lincolns not named the navigator depreciate more in the first 1-2 years than just about any other vehicle

whiskey stones sounds like a physical ailment

a dangerous game of being sweaty and going out in frigid temps. Nothing worse than that feeling.

The used Lincoln car market is pretty brutal

Just pointing out the possibility that the driver of the Range Rover blooming with confidence or panic may have been driving too fast or entered the water too fast and gave his engine a bath

You didn’t even mention how she burys the lede that all salad is bad because....wait for it....because it’s like eating sandwich vegetables which are also bad? Like what? Should we even listen to someone that obviously doesn’t even know what a salad is?

I realized the 1.4 is the one thats supposed to get 40 mpg, see later posts.

I’ll try again when its above 25 degrees, I’m thinking that was probably a factor, but thats good to know.

i thought they redid the EPA mileage ratings a few years ago to be more realistic with 70mph speed limits. either way, I actually was wrong about the epa ratings, they are 40 mpg for the 1.4L and 35mpg for the 1.8L so my 32 was much closer than I thought.
