I was unaware that anybody still stopped to help you in a car breakdown regardless of what you’re driving.

As a husband and father that daily drives a Miata, no, it’s not a ‘forever alone’ vehicle. ;)

Yeah, I added the “/RvBjoke” tag since I figured a lot of younger readers wouldn’t get it. 

Looks more like a warthog to me...

As a man, I’d say an Aston Martin CUV is kind of appealing to me. At least that headline image looks pretty good.

This was a relevant argument five years ago, but at this point, who cares? The STI still exists, Subaru’s growth has exploded and the brand is more popular than ever. Meanwhile, Mitsubishi is barely hanging on in the US market with a couple of forgettable economy cars, CUVs. The only mildly interesting they sell these…

Yeah, but fake-AWD Haldex bruh...

Well Jensen had it first, so...

I always thought the Ssangyong Musso (means “rhino” in Korean) was a cool name for a pretty capable and tough Mercedes-powered SUV:

The Terras are only about $160/ea. Not bad. 

I would guess it’s probably a few thousand, if not ten thousand (or more)cheaper.

Sparco? OZ?

We paid a total of $58 for two nights, with the required Michigan state “recreation passport” which any resident should just fork over the $11 annual fee for.

I present my Subaru Outback 3.0R. It’s not particularly fast, it’s (really) not cool, but...

Truck chassis aside, I suppose the AWD PT Cruiser with a lift kit and some AT tires wouldn’t be horrible offroad. I never realized they had basically zero overhangs until this thing threw that into sharp relief.

I find one of the most satisfying aspects of a project car is finding the little hidden gems of genius the original engineers put into the car. In the midst of cursing Mazda for burying my Miata’s factory amp behind every possible console control, I found the extremely handy passthrough that runs underneath the…

The pretty decent Grand Tour game, for one. For a game based off an automotive entertainment TV show, it’s pretty good. 

Eh, that’s not necessarily true. On the the gen 1 EVs with only about 80 miles of range, you can probably get by with 110V only (I know plenty of people at my work that are fine with occasionally charging at work, and topping off with 110V at home), but for newer EVs with 150+ miles of range, fully charging a car on…

And with a DC fast charger, it’s pretty much exactly the same in an EV. Sure, you could wait the 30-40 minutes for an 80% charge, but if you just need to get home, the ~30 miles of range you’d get from a 10min fast charge would be plenty. 

Even if by some miracle it did come to the US, you can be sure we’d only get the 260hp version and MAYBE the plug-in hybrid. They haven’t offered the hot version of the 3-series wagon in the US for ages.
