100% The Udvar-Hazy Center is epic, but so is the one on the Mall. If you only have time on your trip to DC to see some monuments and some of the Smithsonian, make sure the Air and Space Museum downtown is on the list.

I’m not yet certain if Hyundai/Kia’s system is configured differently for the Telluride, but I think if I owned one of these I’d turn the lane-keeping feature off.

A few months ago there was a shootout at the grocery store we usually go to. Cops, hostages, robbers, etc. Last month our neighbor was assaulted in the hardware store parking lot. A couple of days ago a very strange person came to our door very intent on knowing if my wife was the only one home.

I’m a real estate broker - mostly land - so I do a whole lotta driving! Its a fantastic car for that sort of thing!

An Ioniq? You’ll definitely get the mileage! Now that it is summer I am averaging over 62MPG per tank. In the winter I get ~52 MPG.

I think the consensus is that generally the 2011+ models are much more reliable than the older models. Its still a VW though, so expect some gadget to break.

I have no idea what kinds of cars a 6'7" or 350lb person would fit inside other than the Town car Ron currently drives.

I find the name of a car irrelevant. If the kit it has is equal or better than the other cars in the segment, I’ll pay whatever seems fair.

Yeah, I remember those things. That and the Tercel are cars I don’t want to revisit.

I hate it when manufacturers bring foreign market cars over here and have to give them the ‘off-roady’ treatment. The Opel Insignia was ruined when it was turned into the TourX. This thing will be ruined when turned into a CorollaX.

If they would just trade out the Prius for this thing I would be pretty happy. It may make me consider a Toyota again.

I love my Ioniq! It does everything I need it to do and its good at it! Its quiet, civilized around town, makes highway driving a breeze with ACC and LKAS, gets 60+MPG.

I would buy a Corolla wagon hybrid like that in a heartbeat. 50+ MPG while looking like that would be sweet!

I have a Hyundai DCT in my Ioniq. It is almost invisible with the electric motor assisting in getting the car rolling.

You could enforce it. Read a VIN and know if the car is compliant. If you have interagency access to other state DMVs, you could read plate numbers.

Not talking you out of it, but I knew a guy with a V10 TDI Touareg. It spent ~1/3rd of its life in the shop getting something fixed.

I knew a guy who had one of these back in ‘07-10ish. It spent 1 out of 3 months in the shop getting something fixed. He finally traded it in for a ‘more reliable’ A7 when those first came out. Then he added a Cayman because, you know, reliability is definitely a concern.

My thoughts as well. They ‘sell’ a lot of product to an address and the profits are now clean ‘income’. 

As an owner of a car where the doors are a part of the roof, I appreciate this concept.

I immediately thought the same thing.
