Buy expensive things that you don’t need to impress people you don’t even like is the American way.

It’s for the rating, not the real world. They feather-foot during the EPA test and the 4-cyl never uses the turbo yielding a good EPA number. Real customers actually use the turbo resulting in the same or worse mileage than a V6 or even V8. Example: Eco-boost F150.

I am 100% in favor of public transit...

Best vehicles I ever owned: 1990 Mazda Miata, 2003 Toyota Tundra, 2009 Infiniti G37. Common denominator = Japanese. And yes I have owned American, German, Italian, French, and British. 

Incredible build quality for something so useless. Now build another one with 2 thinner side-by-side tracks so it can turn.

I can’t believe no one mentioned its best feature - a floating roof!!!

I think they extend from the inner wheel well liners to help keep them from getting dislodged during trail driving. Odd styling though.
