To be fair, EPA stated mileage and real world mileage does vary. Real world the Sienna has returned less than the stated 36 mpg, and the Pacifica hybrid has returned better than the stated 22 mpg. You can see real world user data at Fuelly.com (admittedly it is self reported data, so not entirely flawless).

And truthfully even with all that fancy leather, trim, and features, the luxury trucks just don’t ride as well as something like an S class.

I think on of Nissans biggest problems, not just for the new Z but more generally, is their dealers. It was actually a deterrent for me when I was considering purchasing a GT-R. I wasn’t going to plunk down that kind of money for the Nissan dealer experience.

I’ll agree that the Hummer EV is too big, too fast, and way too heavy. But let’s not lump it in with the Cybertruck, it doesn’t deserve that. 

Not just big, but also so angry looking. Why is it so angry? 

The Lincoln Continental was discontinued in 2020; you are 4 years too late to call for its cancellation, it’s already dead. The Mazda MX-30 was discontinued in 2023 (they only sold 100 that year); you are only a year too late to call for its cancellation, it is also already dead.

The Pacifica is still the only minivan that offers the completely flat folding seats that don’t need to be removed from the vehicle to switch between people or cargo on the fly. That’s a level of practicality that I wish other vans had; and I’m honestly surprised that nobody else has come up with a competing offering. 

More like $70,500 these days, as the manual transmission is only available on the Z4 M40i with the optional $3,500 “Edition Handschalter” package.

And to think that BMW cancelled their M1 revival effort in order to prioritize the monstrosity that is the XM.

I think the whole “left” vs “right” debate is actually kind of pointless. Everyone is “liberal” about some things and “conservative” about others. The more time we continue to waste arguing about our differences, the less opportunities there will be for us to make meaningful compromises that can improve the lives of…

Infinite growth baby! Printer go brrrrr!

Also I don’t know how they ever thought 500 miles would be achievable

Sometimes I think StalePhish is really Elon showing up here to twist himself into a pretzel to defend Tesla whatever the cost. But then I’m reminded that Elon doesn’t have time for things like Jalopnik with all his “xit” posting on Xitter. 

Let’s revisit this federal EV tax incentive topic after January 21st, shall we?

Hopefully you get the chance to drive one and report back to us. Some of the initial feedback I’ve seen about the new QX80 is that Infiniti/Nissan did a good job addressing the luxury aspects, but that the ride quality is poor and the engine is merely “adequate”. 

I think Luigi is a bit different than say Manson or the other well known serial killers who attracted a following of enamored individuals. I don’t think it’s so much a personal infatuation with Luigi, as it is a general sentiment amongst the populace that we are getting screwed by health insurance companies. 

Unfortunately he hasn’t faced any consequences for being a pedophile drug addict, so why wouldn’t he keep his name in the news to keep is grift going? 

My guess is that the uncle is projecting a lot of his own beliefs in that statement. The uncle thinks he was a “supersoldier” the uncle thinks he was a “patriot”. Clearly the uncle is full of shit. 

You should write a book about the evolution of the Chad, Kyle, Stacey, Karen, and Kyle.
