Having driven both an S-Class and a luxo-truck I can tell you that the only difference in ride quality comes when you run into something. The truck wins. Before that, they’re pretty much identical. Don’t assume F-450 means rock hard suspension. This Limited will be softer than a toasted marshmallow.

Yes...by 23. And 920 is 409 more than 516. Aggregate concepts.

That’s amazing that on the internet you’d immediately assume I’m an American. Only an American assumes he’s only dealing with Americans online.

$100,000. The F-450 vs Merc S-Class comparison.

Would own. Would turbo. Would bag. Would spinner. Would pimp. Would have mo’ money. Would have mo’ problems. Would release comeback album. Would title it “LLV-R≠H8R”.

Welcome to the Garaged World, Will. I, like yourself am of the 6'+ group and I find that my issue isn’t so much the headroom, as it is the low seating position of most “conventionally” sporty cars. I make that “sound” when I get into and out of my wife’s car. It’s sort of a grunt squeezed out when I am forced to use…

Observation 1: You live in Alaska, shit’s tough. This shouldn’t be a surprise.

It’s like Mike Oldfield and Mother Nature teamed up for Amarok Vol 2.

No, I imagine a base Mazda6 with an inline 4 does not compare to your V6 top trim Accord. It shouldn’t. That being said the Mazda6 (and Mazda as a brand in general) has often been hailed as more of a pure driving experience than other brands. Mazda6 feels like a car. Honda Accord feels like a really smooth, fast,…

Does it Honda Accord? By which I mean, “Feel responsible, responsive and smart while immediately being forgettable the second you turn off the ignition and step out?”

Neutral: There is nothing that is produced en masse that is ethical. Whether it’s the metal for the batteries, the materials for the seats, the rubber for the tires or the cars themselves. At some point you go far enough down to realize every major purchasing decision had to be constructed on the jumbled forms of…

En garde!

That’s a lot of money for a GM. #tongueincheek

Yup, that’s what I’d pay for it, too. Can’t help but feel the “...for a Kia” and “...but it’s a Kia” is just lazy thinking. Watch, I’ll do it too.

I’m convinced that design feature is so that every designer can claim to have given their car a pearl necklace.

Granted, the ones I posted were exaggerated. I was thinking more of the factory options that Ford put on the F-150 Sport.

Now I know you might be thinking it’s that mistake of a bumper on the back, and you’re not wrong. It is terrible. But look down....way down. Low profile tires on trucks make me angry in a way best reserved for Netflix Original season finale cliff hangers. Ok, cool you bought a truck. I respect that. Hey, you use it as…

Sedona, Sorento, Sportage, Cadenza, K900 and Optima Hybrid all hit $40k with various trims and they seem to sell just fine. Well, not the Cadenza and K900. There’s no shortage of top trim Sorento’s, Sedonas and Optima Hybrids out there, that’s for sure. I’d rather spend $40k on a Kia and know that they worked their…

I can’t think of much else I’d spend just shy of $200k on. Shoes for children in Africa comes a close second, as does a lifetime supply of Pez, but man...a Porsche turbo PHEV, or should I say “PHEW” (Plug-In Hybrid Wagon) does feel like the future.
