I just bought the Ridgeline, and I love it. I’ve been a Subaru guy for decades at this point, but treating my Outback like a truck and hauling stuff was getting more and more tricky. The Ridgeline rides the line between Baja and full size truck nicely with damn good gas mileage (about the same if not slightly better…

I recently  bought a Ridgeline, coming from Subaru, and was really disappointed in Honda’s conservative color selection for anything outside of their hot hatch category. 

Gattaca remains my favorite movie and is the movie I always recommend to folks, as most people didn’t see it. 

I’m 6'5" and my father is nearly 6"7"...I remember car shopping with him as a teen (roughly early 90s) and for giggles, he wanted to try and sit in a Miata.

Except for them Aussie boys, who will push this thing further than anyone intended. Have you seen those videos?

Here’s the thing, as I see it - Carvana and any other online car retailers are leading into this unknown territory/broad opportunity. Buying a car online is a huge leap of faith on the consumer’s part. If Carvana screws that up, by selling a lemon, car not accurately described, provides poor service, etc. then that…

I just want someone to buy this Figaro near me and take me for a ride occasionally.

How exactly are they celebrating the Cherokee people? 

So Jeep just gets to profit off of the name of a historically oppressed tribe, while giving them nothing? 

Exactly. RH also closed out people’s positions at the lowest possible price, thereby further driving the price down. 

it seems the problem is that social media doesn’t help us connect beyond our tribes, it boils our tribalism down into a self-fulfilling noxious stew as you can always find someone that shares your worst beliefs...sigh

I drive by the Portland, Maine location most days as you can see it from the highway. It’s beautiful.
