why does that sorta remind me of a Bizarro World Porsche Carrera GT?

I was looking at new cars last year, and I had briefly considered the G70. The two things that had me cross it off the list were the reviews that said the manual wasn’t that great of a drive, and the fact that there wasn’t one within 200 miles available that I could drive and verify for myself. Clutch pedal and…

If Jeep actually starts throwing Hemis into Wranglers, Ford will change their tune.

It is your prerogative to buy what you want and to justify the purchase however you see fit, but I would think simply nixing the TDI stuff from consideration would be appropriate.

Now, if only they could fit a manual in the thing.

It would be cool if Nissan also brought out a RWD sedan that shared the Z platform and eliminated one of their FWD bloated yawners.

The C4 always gets blasted for having a long production run, but the C3's was even longer running from 1968 to 1982.

Seat belt compliance rose when people didn’t want to get fined for not wearing one. Mask compliance will rise when people realize their “freedom” isn’t worth $100-$200 in fines and/or jail time. It’s a simple fix, but it requires people with spines to implement and enforce.

We had a similar issue with Lufthansa. We had our honeymoon booked for June, and then the pandemic happened. We wound up cancelling the trip to Germany back in March for obvious reasons, and Lufthansa tried giving us the runaround. It was damn-near impossible to get a hold of someone, and when we finally got through,…

I like it, but without the manual option, I’m not interested.

So, in other words, you intend to use them if you have to.

The problem is that wages have been stagnant for the lower/middle classes for decades, so vehicles have gotten prohibitively expensive even though their prices may fall inline with inflation.

I’m excited to see what the Bronco brings to the table. For me, it is more appealing than the Wrangler because it has an independent front suspension and a turbo 4 that you can actually get with a manual transmission. The driving factor is going to be price, of course. If this thing is priced as stupidly as the JL is,…

If I recall, there was nothing proactive about Ford’s bailout. They were just in dire straits before shit hit the fan.

On the east coast, it has gotten to an $.80 disparity between premium and regular. That’s an extra $12 per tank assuming a typical fill-up of 15 gallons. With every daily driver I’ve owned, I tend to fill up once a week, which puts me at an extra $624 per year.
If I had a Ranger as my only vehicle, I’d probably go for…

Did anyone really think that dealers were going to order a bunch of base Corvettes?

My dad’s 64 Impala was a complete rust bucket. We spent about 5 years on it.

You need to get off your high horse and stop pointing fingers at the deceived instead of the ones knowingly performing the trickery.

The Gladiator suffers from the same ailment as the JK Wrangler: it is overpriced and every dealer has a better vehicle on their lot for the same money. At the $40,000+ sticker that these things list for, you can pick up a Ram that has much nicer interior appointments, V8 engine options, a larger bed, superior truck…
