They better call it the Taco Jr. Or Taquito would be acceptable as well.

No that will be a Maverick with a new high capacity gas tank in the back.

What comes next for the Maverick?

A lot of people are afraid to ride in a Nissan Versa, too.

We could see something like the Chevy S-10 or Dodge Dakota again.

Though I was going to see a little hidden line at the end of the article saying is was originally posted in 2018, since they’re padding things out lately with that shit. And don’t get me started on the click though shit.

I think the secret to the Maverick’s success also lies in the fact it looks like a truck. Many buyers go for pickup trucks as much for image as utility. 

The roof of my car is about the same height as the hood/belt line of a modern pickup - try safely seeing around that when making a right into traffic.

Don’t even 2WD trucks now sit as high as 4x4 ones do?

The Soul/Forte would be decent comparisons because they both basically start at 20k... (which means theyre likely optioned north of 23k.... and id guess that would be similar for the mav).

I mean, of course it did. People have been clamoring for a small, cheap truck for ages. This is a small, (possibly) cheap truck. It also offers genuine advantages over full or mid-size trucks. Mid sizers are still a bit large and cumbersome when it comes time to navigate a parking garage. They don’t deliver enough of…

The price is fine for what you get. By all accounts Honda is perfectly happy with how many they sell. They don’t want to move downmarket, hence no 4 cylinder, no stripper version, etc. 

I did a 72-month loan with Honda, at 0.9%. I could have easily done a 36-month loan, but I elected instead to put the balance into my 401k.

While that 84-month term may make that payment on an Si look appealing, it’s not a good idea in the long run. For one, the vehicle will lose value faster than you can repay the loan, and the long term means a person will be paying more interest, especially if a buyer doesn’t have a Tier 1 (scores of 700 or above)…

Volvo sells replacement wiper blade inserts as well. Less wasted material and money. 

Agree on the blade inserts. Cheap, they install them, and refuse a tip.

this is the correct take - see Porsche. No one wants any longer a stripped down model, they want a loaded cheaper one, so you just have to have older ones to choose from - but it has to sound special because people feel like used = junk and that hasn’t been true for a long while. 

Maybe it’s just me, but I’ve never seen a warranty on a 10 year old car with 300K miles offered at a used car dealership.

PLEASE TELL AWESOM-O MORE SECRETS!

Okay, umm, how about this: Adam Sandler is in love with a girl, but umm it turns out she’s a golden retriever or something.
