I am not sure this is what most folks had in mind when the directive was “increase torque in an S2000"

My wife has a 545i. Manual, RWD. That’s why we bought it. It had 120K miles on it, is up to 165K now.

Interest rates were historically low from 2008 to 2015, because of the recession, when the Fed kept the rate at 0%. Then in 2015 they finally started raising the interest rate, and if you look at this chart, the Fed raised rates THREE times in 2017, and FOUR times in 2018! And they have stated that they’re going to…

1st: What were average interest rates on car notes a year ago?  6% seems darn high (but it factors in those with both good and poor credit).

Not sure of the specific vehicle you owned but the Fusion Hybrid, Fusion, Energi Plug in Hybrid, and the Pacifica Hybrid I own or have owned over the years have all had electric heat/AC.  There are deep freeze scenarios where each of those would run the engine to get things up to temp, in normal driving the engines…

Too bad nobody buys Ford hybrids

It would have been REALLY nice if Ford had hybridized the Flex...

Really glad to see this. When the second (third if you count the Japan only model) Prius hit the US and people were really talking about the huge jump in fuel economy while still using regular gas, it was obvious that high mileage non-consumer vehicles really should go hybrid. Delivery trucks and taxis did because…

The Ferrari 212 from the same year had 150 bhp and a 10.5 time to 60.

“a base Insight is pretty expensive to own and operate as far as brand-new cars go”

I can do both, but I’d much rather drink the free coffee provided by my employer. 

Yet again, Boris Diaw is a trendsetter that goes underappreciated in his time

Most remarkable stat of the night: Harden only took 9 free throws (made 8).

As a Spurs fan, I’m not even mad Harden willed this one out. This is one fucking phenomenal display of basketball tonight. And he wasn’t chipping away to that 44 with undeserved free throws; dude turned a 20-point deficit against a dynastic team into goddamn NBA JAM catch up AI. What a goddamn game to watch tonight,…

Glad some one caught that. :)

The Highlander takes the top spot because obviously there can be only one.

I’m sorry, but are you comparing FCA reliability to Toyota and Honda reliability? Lol. 

Yes, other manufacturers have made reliable vehicles.  Going off of actual statistically sound research data from half a dozen resources that specialize in reliability studies, Honda and Toyota are at the top of the pack.  

Honda and Toyota build some of the most reliable vehicles on the road.

It’s a Cavalier, it’ll run poorly longer than most of those Toyotas will run.
