Michigan’s foremost reductive metals investor.

The 360 fixed what was stylistically wrong about the 355, but still doesn’t look as well executed as the 348. All of them will likely leave you broken and poor due to absurd timing belt services.

S2k or Miata. Just like an ALFA Romeo, you haven’t lived a full automotive life unless you’ve owned one, or both.

Fast depreciation, but handsomely.

Asked a question above, but you answered it here. Blizzaks.

Holy shit, I’ve been trying to find this post for several days now. What tires were you running for winter mode?

My Triumph motorcycle had 180 miles of range per tank, and that is about perfect.

I love the designs of their socks, but they are too thin for me. I'm all about those squishy/fluffy cotton socks, like the Hanes classic, or Timberlands.

Mazda needs to make the 2.5T a standard option through the lineup. I can accept no manual due to how unpopular the option is, but you can’t keep claiming you are a serious option against peers that have twice the horsepower as an option.

I’ve found the 9 and 10-speed transmissions are a pain to live with due to how indecisive they are with stock calibrations (I know the Ford 10-speed responds well to reprogramming, but that is hardly a consideration for most buyers). 6 and 8-speed options seem okay. I like the gear spacing of 6 speed gearboxes. The ZF…

I drove a current model JCW while waiting for my brother’s 500 Abarth to go through PDI. It was absolutely lovely in all ways except the following:

The Tesla hype machine is ruining the car industry, where I initially had hoped it would revolutionize it.

“The gasoline version of the 2020 F-250 has a maximum payload of 4,260 lbs. and a maximum tow rating of 19,500 lbs., while the diesel variant has a maximum payload of 3,940 lbs. and maximum towing of 22,800 lbs. Both figures beat the Cybertruck’s expected payload of up to 3,500 lbs. and towing capacity of more than…

CT5 is the KIA translation of the Escala. Attractive enough, decent performer, on a good platform, that falls miles short of the cohesive design of the original and undercuts the luxury and capability defined by the Escala.

Tell that to BMW, Audi, and Mercedes. Sedans sell if you make good ones with some level of consistency that customers can rely upon. Cadillac is like the herion-addicted son that is creative, and you love, but just can’t support any longer because as soon as you think he’s clean, he falls off the wagon again and makes…

CT5 is new for 2019 and half-heartedly influenced by the Escala. The CTS left us in 2018 on the Alpha platform, while CT5 rides on a heavily-revised Alpha-2 design.

The Escala was based on the Omega platform, the CT5 is built on the Alpha-2 platform. While Omega was fantastic, Alpha-2 could easily support the proportions and quality expectations inferred in the design of the Escala.
