Not a sofa, but I did fit a loveseat in mine. I miss that little car.

We've had a nine drawer dresser in ours. We've had enough stuff to travel thousands of miles in ours too...and we have taken multiple 5k trips.

It does come down to how many people are being carried. The Fit (I’m definitely not objective) will carry 4 and their weekend luggage, or 2 and enough for at 5k trip.

Welcome to our flying taxi future!

Define “better”

To your speed limit point: fines should be double if caught speeding with a trailer.

I think the Buick Cascada looks quite nice. And it has the best top-up appearance of any soft top convertible on the road today.

Towing more than 5,000 lbs should require a special license endorsement. 

The US should require behind the wheel driving tests every 10 years. With a written test every 5.

Ill throw out another opinion: this car makes sense for a hobbyist who is doing ok financially. Rather than buy a Corvette like everybody else, buy something that stands out and is a conversation starter. It will need parts from time to time, and they will be expensive and hard to find. It might take some creative

Minivans make people uncomfortable because they are the real sign of actual virility instead of a small car for two people or a truck that kids would need a ladder to get into. It just rubs your ability to reproduce in everyone else’s face and not everyone is secure enough to handle that.

The 25 year rule doesn’t exist for safety or emissions, it’s because importing “grey market” cars from Europe was so lucrative a business in the 70s and 80s that the dealership lobby paid off Washington to make it illegal. 

This looks great, but hard disagree with all the “black out the chrome” people. If anything, the mirror caps should be the same silver as the D pillars. If you black it all out, it just looks like a Chevy Tahoe, not the upscale look they’re going for.

Cohesiveness is overrated IMO, but I do think that trim ties into the silver roof rails, bumper and side skirt accents, and it works with the overall design of the car and the lights. This one does seem to be the top-end Calligraphy model, so maybe on lesser trims it won’t be silver

If Hyundai had released any photos of the bench seat I would have included it, but they didn’t so I didn’t. The photos in this article are the only ones released so far

The length of the loan is forever, because the customer is going to do the same thing again long before it’s paid off.

The guy is trying to buy a ~$90k car while being $29k underwater and only has $7500 to put down. Assuming a 6.5% car tax (this is a guess) and a 10% interest rate (no way this guy is in single digits), you hit that $2500 with 60 months of payments.

Coming from a guy who doesn’t much care for SUVs, The GV80 is a very good looking vehicle, better than any BMW and Mercedes SUV in the looks department imo. A concept, but wow I could be seen in this:

You do not, under any circumstances, “gotta hand it to” AI

Sounds like the right answer is better public transit, not half-assed attempts to make car-culture work for people who can’t drive.
