The Canadian MyMcDonald’s program is different, with different point tiers (2000/4000/6000/10000/14000 points), and different tier rewards.

Tires can make a huge difference, but if you’re just using the car for commuting and aren’t doing any auto-cross or track driving, the OEM tires are probably fine.

My dad watched this movie so many times that he wore out the DVD.

Let’s not forget that all those leftover 2020 model year Journeys were powered exclusively by a 173 hp 4-cylinder engine, strapped to a 4 speed slushbox with roots back into the ‘80s, all pushed through the two front wheels. FCA couldn’t have been bothered to federalize the V6/6sp auto/AWD for its final year of…

“You expect me to pay more money for less wheel?”

There’s a non-zero chance that Toyota told Subaru to kill their rally legend or else they wouldn’t get access to anymore of Toyota’s upcoming EVs

Your recommendation of a Prius V is good, but the Mazda 5 is also a fine alternative, especially if they would rather stick with a conventional drivetrain or have any interest in driving a manual transmission.

I agree, but they might decide to include it on luxury vehicles, or to improve service survey scores.

Is Jalopnik really exhuming articles from almost 10 years ago for content?

It depends on how many amps of service your house currently gets, what kind of loads you already have (electric stove, water heater, base board heating, air conditioning etc.) and how quickly you want to charge the car.

From what I’ve heard, yes. If a dealership wants to get allocations of new electric vehicles (and potentially even for PHEVs), they have to have a certain level of charging capability.

CX-70 is going to compete (size wise) with the Ford Edge/Nissan Murano/Chevy Blazer etc., while the CX-5/CX-50 are meant to compete with the Ford Escape/Nissan Rogue/Chevy Equinox etc.

Time based oil change intervals are less important with current engines. They were worthwhile decades ago when engines were more open to the environment and petroleum oil was common and prone to oxidation.

It absolutely is true. Insurance companies aren’t charities, they post huge profits every year.

The guy that jumped the Tesla is an asshole, but this guy seems to be trying to capitalize on his 15 minutes of fame.

He plead guilty to ~$15,000 worth of fraudulent charges, but who’s to say there wasn’t thousands more that they just couldn’t build a good enough case for? Also, AAA had to pay lawyers to build a case and represent them, and unless they’re also getting paid for legal fees, they will still be out some amount of money.

Except that insurance companies don’t lose money, they just pass the cost on to policy holders by raising rates. If you screw insurance companies, you’re really just screwing every other insured driver. Why should our rates go up because an idiot got his RZR stuck?

Those inspections for out of province vehicles can be a nightmare if you’re bringing a car from a province that does use salt on their roads to a province that does not use salt on their roads (eg, Ontario car into B.C.)

Chevy offered a colour called Oakwood Metallic on a few cars a couple years back and it was awful. I nicknamed it ‘Caucausin Metallic’, because on a sunny day it looks like glistening flesh. Also Chevy killed their nice metallic deep green, so f*** ‘em.

2006-2007 Mazdaspeed6 also did 0-60 in 5.8s. While that was and is respectably fast, the race of 0-60 in 0s over the past decade has made any time that doesn’t start with a 4, or even a 3, sound slow.
