We drove our 2003 Murano until it seemed to constantly need something. The engine and transmission were fine though. I actually liked the CVT in that car. This was also the year without the stupid fake gears.

So maybe their pension fund is buying up stock in preparation for Michigan changes the rules to allow tesla to sell in Michigan without franchises which will in turn increase Tesla's stock. 🤔

The manuals I’ve read of all of the radar based frontal collision avoidance systems seem to indicate that these systems have a challenging time detecting parked vehicles and other stationary objects. I think this is why that new E-class and Subaru’s EyeSight have dual cameras. I know EyeSight can detect stationary…

I'm going to claim it's because my great grandparents are from Yugoslavia.

I just really want a Yugo for no logical reason... Don't judge me!

I misunderstood back in 2009 when they shut down after filing bankruptcy, but you’re right, they did not close after bankruptcy and then reopen. They shut down production due to a two and half month long strike which occurred after the bankruptcy and the reopened production. I’d rather have a Yugo than a SsangYong (or…

I should have been more specific and said older Honda Civic. They're are still plenty of the late 90s one around. Those were pretty easy to steal.

The key fob proximity is more concerning, but unless they can clone your fob (I haven’t heard of that yet), they can only open your car and maybe start it once. I can think of reasons for both, but I think those are edge cases and they’d still just steal the Honda Civic they can hot wire if they want a car or break a…

Downplaying it is smart with how many people won’t get that this hack as is really isn’t a threat to anyone.

Thought that was a shop of it in yellow with a Pontiac badge at first.

Everyday. I would rather walk. Most people in Korea would rather walk or use public transit than buy one. Must be why they went out of business.

It’s actually Korean.

I hate the style of these cars soooooo much. It was made much worse by one being the hearse used for my father-in-law’s funeral. He deserved better than that.

I noticed the same thing. Then I was told you’re not supposed to walk and eat or walk and drink. That’s why you’ll also see benches by many vending machines apparently.

I can’t fault them for putting trash by over stuffed trash cans. In Korea they set up lots of large trash bins for popular locations to reduce these problems. Japan probably does the same but needs to adjust to the unexpected new foot traffic.

Why didn't the car effectively shut off after the crash like many gas powered cars do? After a crash, it shouldn't creep forward anymore until it's somehow reset...

It’s not irrational. Have you ever tried Xbox matchmaking where one or more of your friends has strict NAT? It can cause some incredibly frustrating problems.

I generally describe the look as an aerodynamic Pontiac Aztek.

Chevy is one of the only companies to get this right. Every Chevy I’ve rented lately has auto headlights which cannot be permanently set to off like pretty much any other car I can think of. You can have the headlights in auto, parking light, or on modes from the selector, but off is a momentary switch. If you select…

I have. It's kind of a relief when they finally get divorced.
