When my wife passed three months after leasing a Kia Stinger GT1 I contacted Kia to inform them the leaser passed. They straight up told me that if I turned in the lease early they would auction it off (to themselves no less) and I would owe the balance from the sale. No sympathy and no program if the owner dies.

I was thinking that the wood is worth more than the car...

YOU’RE the reason they DON’T call you guys IQ-Anon...

Lemme fix that title for you:

Agreed. When I first saw this I was like “Oh cool, it’s a retro styled pickup tru...WTF?”   It’s a shitty SUV/Hatch mashup that everyone will forget about in 10 seconds.

Any modern BMW...

I have a 2001 New Beetle TDI with an automatic with 268,000 miles. Which doesn’t sound too high until you find out that the transmissions used in this car had a tendency to implode at about 90K miles. This was one of cars built south of the border. It’s so common when the local guru changed the timing belt on it,…

I’m sure it’s some kind of android offshoot without the Google ecosystem (using it’s own play store for legal reasons) like Harmony OS. Possibly a Linux variant like Tizen (Samsung’s version of Android)...

MEH...BMW has been making removable cup holders for YEARS...

Cops are taught to establish compliance at all costs. So no matter if it’s a 5 year old having a tantrum, an elderly woman with dementia or a pregnant woman -they need to exert compliance.

It’s not an article it’s sponsored content, if that even matters...

You are technically correct.

So the M is slower and smaller than the Kia EV6 GT. And with one of the ugliest fronts on a BMW.

Well, the rebels *did* take the airports during the Revolutionary War...

Actually in Europe I believe the KIA cousin clocks in at just slightly HIGHER than the EV from Audi...

That’s because his goal was to sell off the IP or even the entire company at one point.

Don’t forget fourth - where you state you didn’t watch the video of CR running the tests over and over again at faster and faster speeds until it finally fails (including threats to fire staff if it doesn’t flip).

Yes I did, because I stopped reading at that point. Blanket statements like now that I have solar *then noting electric costs money to use* - should be amended to “Now that I paid a shite-ton of money for solar, I can begin to offset that huge outlay of cash with charging my vehicle with it...”

Thank you. At least you agree that it’s not “free to drive” as quoted in the article. And thanks for recognizing that to get those solar panels costs a bunch of money to get that “free” electricity.  So he paid to charge the car, just paid for it upfront for that “free” charging.

Meh - Not jealous. I myself have a pretty large solar array, but then again I have a pretty big home (6 bedrooms!). I don’t go around telling my friends that my electricity is free because of solar, as they are all smart enough to know that solar means that I either had a large expense I paid for it upfront or I’m…
