I got one of these my chance as a rental on Vancouver Island, where there are windy roads. I couldn’t believe that it was ... still can’t believe I’m saying this .... come on say it .... it was .... it was fun. It was fun to drive. And I turned around a a couple of times to look at it after getting out. That one was…

I owned one of these (well, a v70 T5, but quite similar) and I miss it. The price is fair. Main issues came from electronic gremlins and suspension challenges. That said they are nice to drive, extremely spacious, I personally think they look great. But at this age it will smell like crayons (old Volvo thing), trim…

The ugliest cars of the road: BMW. Nice to drive, hit or miss on reliability, too many models and trims at once, and hands down the absolutely worst looking cars at the moment, somehow. It was a miraculous achievement, given how consistently good they’ve looked over the decades. Until now, when, seemingly just for the…

He didn’t mention either of these things in his article. 

This whole thing stinks for everyone involved. Obviously if sexual misconduct is the issue, for the victim. Imagine standing up to someone as powerful as Horner. Second, for RB and the team, who pour their hearts into their roles there (I’m not an RB fan but you have to respect their excellence). For the drivers, who…

Nah, I’m not getting mad about this one. The Escalade has never been affordable and is not going to be a commonly-owned car for most folks - this car is beautifully designed and an EV, just leagues beyond the previous generations. Sure I can’t afford it and will be in a Kia or something but by the time this hits…

Whew the variances in this search open up too many options. Long term = 10-40 years, and budget is $50k - $125K depending on how “special” it is. There is an ocean between these boundaries. But the focus on snow, the need for four doors, and presumed need to fit 3+ ppls boots and bags for a ski trip (assuming a ski…

Every now and then F1 shows has an issue like this and a modern race ever so briefly feels the way early Grands Prix may have - tinged with danger.

Go to Mexico City. Its a lovely place with unmatched food and history, plus because the city is so large, it easily absorbs a race weekend without lodging and transportation costs spiking. There are direct flights from most major cities. It’s close, and there’s no jet lag. See the race by day and eat the greatest…

Every slide could also have been BMW, BMW, BMW, BMW, BMW

It is hard to agree with some of these takes as they mostly 1. represent a much needed improvement (fresh designs from Hyundai/Kia) 2. a car the market needed, like the refreshingly small and relatively fuel efficient Maverick in an ocean of brodozers, or 3. cars that are the last of their beloved breed (the Miata,…

Time for a Checo mug: “It shows who he really is.” 

Comment section is just a bunch of keyboard warriors making “I” statements and criticizing young people. It makes me feel sad to read the tone on here when this article is about the situation young people find themselves in. Zero sympathy for the market factors at play that have led to this. Just a bunch of people…

Nice list, like the rest of the rogues gallery I will chime in:

Brilliantly said, I wish this was a widely circulated op-ed
