Seriously great photos. The CRV is a nice looking SUV.. but these pictures set it up to look much more interesting than I ever would have expected. Great work! Also, thanks for trying to do something different with the layout.

This CR-V just leap-frogged ahead all compact crossovers in terms of cargo space, efficiency and overall refinement. I’ll be driving the 2017 RAV4 next week, with a full review on Clavey’s Corner, so stay tuned.

So here’s a thing. Some people—wait for it—some people don’t live in New York City.

Dumb shit

America has an addiciton: an addition to buying Subarus.

Oh please. The term “SUV” has become the “Kleenex” of the auto universe. Nobody says “oh that CUV is good looking!” Or “I bought a CUV!” They say SUV. At some point you’re gonna have to stop fighting it, the fight is lost. CUV = SUV to a vast majority of the population.

Isn’t the whole party trick of the BRZ/86 that it is a “rwd drift machine”? I mean if you want AWD you just buy a WRX instead, no?

Imagine using the “build your own” feature on a manufacturer’s web site, and on the summary page there’s an Amazon-like “buy now” button. After arranging financing (which you…

Holy shit - this is just a straight forward informative post explaining the answer to an interesting question. Well done.

I had no choice but to valet a ‘99 Corolla at a fancy hotel (conference center was hosting a work function). Pulled up next to a Ferrari, and was behind a Bentley and a 911. Didn’t bother to take a ticket, just literally tossed the valet the key and went inside, knowing that “the Corolla” would be the only…

So, you know, don’t expect to run a fuel line to it and get anything other than a mound of melted and possibly smoldering plastic.

I would love to see a breakdown on the car vs regulatory and union costs.

Great write-up! I have guided a few friends through the car buying process and a lot of what is listed here is extremely common. I did have a few comments though:
