Yes, people are very judgey about how people who have nothing to lose - a condition people are convinced has nothing to do with them and they shouldn’t have to care about - actually act like they have nothing to lose. But America is really quite enamored with the falsehood that everyone is directly responsible for…

That’s always been my confusion...why AREN’T there more competitors?

I have a 2008 Toyota Prado with a 4 cyl diesel engine and 5 sp manual.

Perhaps anything with the words “VW” and “Westfalia” associated should have been included.  

I love it that you don’t do a public consult “because the public doesn’t have anything to add to the process.” That sums it up. Let experts and people that rely on science make the decision and it if screws up someone’s “fun”, tough.

I work in environmental science and land reclamation. I manage a federally-protected wildlife sanctuary. I agree that this sucks for the off-road community.

I always wanted one of these. But the longer I waited, the rustier they got to the point that an intact one here in Canada is worthy of parking in a collector’s garage.

I prefer the “chain their rear axle to a telephone poll” gag.

Excellent user name.

Most of these will be polluting shit boxes that aren’t fit to be on the road.

How exactly do you know that said cars were “polluting shit boxes that aren’t fit to be on the road”???

Still more effective than goggles.

Not really. Volvo is not controlled by Geely. No more than when they were partnered with Ford.

They kept designing and building their own products with Geely financial backing, but this is a 100% Geely creation with a Volvo badge on it.

$36K, 275 mile range, 268 horsepower EV compact? With Volvo’s seats and peerless safety?

Raddest camper of all time, not even the raddest of Citroen H vans.

A conversion van with multi-coloured stripes called a Transtar?  Quick, buy it before Republicans ban it.

Aaaaaand the Civic is already sold 

I have seen Antarctica 1.

Particularly the SR5 version. As long as you didn’t need more ground clearance they would go anywhere. They even came with standard inclinometer.
