This guy gets it

They sell like hotcakes. All because it fits the general population’s preference of “sitting up higher” and “AWD”

Actual conversation I had with my buddy’s wife:

Don’t get me wrong, we all like the G Wagen (I knew I botched that spelling in the OP), but it’s not the ultimate vehicle.

Their ideal beginner’s vehicle is a Chevy Trax.

99% of the people ripping on the Kia Soul on the interwebs aren’t car folks. They think the Mercedes G Wagon is the ultimate vehicle when we all know which car is always the answer

I can see how people wouldn’t like the look of it. My question is, then, what were you expecting? I thought they would look more like NASCAR stock cars with a lot less design from the windtunnel. I wasn’t expecting the giant wing or nose. Or maybe something like the most recent IROC series vehicles.

Building the new TC on an AWD capable platform would please so many consumers. Almost everyone on TC forums and facebook groups beg for an AWD variant. Me, on the other hand, simply request an LSD and a manual option. A Transit Connect ST would be the only vehicle I would buy brand new. 

As long as there’s decent dirt racing happening without several stops or cautions (aside from actual crashes for safety), I’m all in regardless. 

Mine.

I’ve honestly never cared for the overall design of the i8. The front isn’t awful, but doesn’t blow me away either. IMO, it tried to pull the futuristic look too much. A great example of a vehicle that captured style ahead of its time was the Audi R8.

Is CW the greatest shooter game of all time? Absolutely not, but it keeps me and my group of friends occupied for hours per day. By no means do I think your take is bad or inaccurate. Most modern games are cut and paste then add different colors and names(looking at you, Madden franchise). But in the end, most…

I get your frustration, but some folks (like me) will eat up anything zombie related in COD. I don’t care if they bring back Der Riese to a T and try to tie it in to MW’s story and theme. Give me rounds of zombies to mow down and I’ll be occupied for hours and hours. 

Races: 69

I think the rear of the i8 is ugly. A lot going on back there.

Now I can’t unsee it

no sliding doors; no dice

I think I’ve commented this on every FCA/Stellantis/whatever theyre called now post Jalopnik has wrote

Still waiting for them to put the 392 or the Hellcat engine in the minivan.

Working for FCA at the time, and wanting to cash in on my employee discount on a stupid cheap Challenger lease...
