Automakers shouldn’t be allowed to tell customers what they can and cannot do with their cars after they’ve sold them to said customer.

My brother had a 2002 Diamante that had a particularly problematic automatic transmission and lots of oil leaks. It was also falling apart and rusting a lot more than most cars the same age and mileage that it was. My neighbors had a mid 2000's Galant that was seemingly in the shop for one thing or another more often…

They say it’s still coming but they’ve been saying that year after year now. At this point I’m waiting for them to say they’ve given up. It’s starting to sound a lot like Baltia Airlines ever having their first flight if you know what I mean.

I mean, you’re not wrong. 

Alissa Walker.

Not yet. 

In all seriousness it’s an awesome city to visit but I don’t think I’d ever live there. Jalopnik slams NYC a lot because it’s a hard city to be a car enthusiast in. 

I only use Uber if I’m drunk or if I have to drop off or pick up my car at the repair shop and no one can take me. Other than that it’s a hard pass for me. Still, Uber is leaps and bounds better than a cab where I live. 

True. 

Yeah, you overqualified try-hard. They can’t afford you.

Do you think this would cannibalize some of their sales though?

I will. Thanks! 

Yup and I’m still pretty salty about not getting the SkyActiv diesel they promised us. 

I’d have to live in NYC? Thanks, but no thanks.

No I’m serious. Torch and David consistently add nothing of value to this series. I’d rather they both start taking this more seriously or not participate at all.

Is the Accord at least a manual? I can forgive a beige Accord if it’s a manual.

I’m not too bothered by it considering this is study is how “desirable” cars are which is entirely subjective. A lot of people overlook Mazda because it lacks the brand awareness of larger brands. That’s probably what’s hurting Mazda in this study even though they have a great lineup right now.

It is a very nice car for the money. Love my 2015 6 but the refreshed 2018 ones are way nicer. 

I hope not. His suggestions are almost as bat shit as Torch’s. Torch and David should be barred from even suggesting anything in this series. I like to see this taken seriously.

$46k? Ouch.
