The problem with your analysis is the fact that while the car may be equipped with Active Drive I or II, it can't really handle the kind of conditions where you'd need either system, as should be clear from the number of times it ended up on three wheels in the above review.

Agreed, but I thought we'd hit the peak of muscle-car mania quite a few years ago? (and prices had at least re-entered the realm of sanity)

I've seen a car with 6 miles on the odometer - and it was a rental. Unbeknownst to me prior to pickup, Hertz had slotted me in for a *literally* brand-new, never-driven (minus the six miles) Toyota Highlander. I'm not sure how I lucked out — back then I was traveling a lot and a frequent user of their #1 Club Gold

Agreed. And honestly, it wasn't that bad a crash. Surprising though it may sound, it's actually pretty difficult to injure yourself in an automobile wreck if you haven't collided with either a large stationary object or, worse, an oncoming vehicle. This car admittedly hit the wall, but not until after they'd started

Some of you must really hate your friends and family. Either that or you've never owned a truly reliable car (e.g. Lexus or Honda).

"Anybody got any tips for me?"

"For a new car, the Grand Cherokee ticks almost every box for almost every person."

Please. At least half of Porsche's American drop-top sales are in California, Texas and Florida. November is perfect convertible weather here in Texas.

True story: 20 years ago I convinced my (now dearly departed) grandmother to trade in her barge-like Coupe de Ville for the then-brand-new Lexus ES 300. She freakin' LOVED it, and moreover, she felt much safer driving a smaller car that had at least *some* driver feedback (in contrast to an '85 Caddy, at least). She

On our drive we got to sample the Range Rover Sport on the Northern California highways along the Pacific coastline as well as off road on a ranch owned by a hardcore Land Rover owner and enthusiast who volunteered his property for our test. Like the Range Rover, the Sport can handle literally anything and everything

A few comments, from a gay guy who manages to speak candidly about sex to friends consisting of (in addition to gays, of course) both straight guys and straight women (and wishes y'all could be more communicative with each *other*, but that's another story):

Sorry, but I seem to be missing the part about this being a "public scolding." Not one name is listed here - and this all transpired in Sydney, a major city. How is this "slut-shaming," unless one of the involved parties names names in private?

Any of the exits along the Lower Deck of I35 through Austin. First, they're all INSANELY short. You might have 15 feet to move over, then decelerate from 65 MPH to 35 MPH. They are also either within 50 feet of the intersection, meaning if you're trying to go right you have to cross three or four lanes of traffic on

"1. You say a classic must be recognizable as a classic when you see it. That's BS. There are a lot of beautiful and noteworthy cars out there that the masses don't know about."

Fourth: Fast & Furious.

I wouldn't call this a "mystery for the ages." In the past couple of years I've seen a bunch of people driving the somewhat random offering of a Mitsubishi Galant, a car that by no rational reason still exists. And yet, it does. When I finally started looking closely, I figured out the truth: without a single

Apparently you missed my point for the fourth or fifth time. Let me just spell it out:

I live in Houston and have yet to see a Tesla here (not even one - honestly - and I live in Montrose near River Oaks, where one could reasonably expect to see them), and yet I spent the summer in Austin and encountered several a week. Then I visited the North County part of San Diego for a week afterwards, and my

"Nowhere in that description does it say that it has to be pretty or good to drive."

Your logical fallacy here is your assumption that ALL cars between 20 and 45 years old are "classic." They're not, regardless of the fact that the word is heinously misused nowadays; they may be deemed "classic," which is not even remotely the same thing as "will be deemed 'classic.'" Most older cars are merely old,
