That was GREAT raw video with no marketing BS, no music. Thank you for that. Thank you. 1000x.

Wrangler is still straight axle front and rear. Regardless of the size as others have mentioned, there is nothing that can be modded like a Wrangler, with pretty basic bolt-on parts (suspension mostly), and be a serious off-roader. Rock crawling & desert. The JK is far and away the most scalable off-road vehicle on…
Neutral: Do You Know Which Airbag Is In Your Car?
Everyone first go google image search "NORRA Mexican 1000", then try to get anything important done. This is actually a very under-appreciated event. Tons of classic iron, and weird shit, racing on the same old Baja race courses (read: not for the faint of heart). I've actually been dyign to go spectate at this race…
If the rear is ever powered, it's AWD. If they don't use it, then maybe they can call it FWD. It seems pretty straightforward unless they don't reveal the facts of what they use during the race. Personally, I think if the rear wheels have a driveshaft connected to a diff connected to stub axles, it's AWD. Whether…
Oh definitely, we benefit from the fad. I have no problem with it, but can't deny it's silly. I also think it's silly that organizations that support certain groups can't take a very light joke, that was clearly directed at those who are gluten free "just because".
I'm reading this article, my stomach literally in pain from accidentally eating gluten yesterday, and I'm still laughing my ass off. Have a sense of humor, people!
This is roughly the equivalent to me off-roading with my kids in the back of our jeep, securely strapped in. Similar emotional response as well :-)
So wait, you can get a manual diesel, but not AWD? That would be okay with me. But any other combinations are possible? A gas, manual AWD ? And an AWD diesel, but auto? And a and and a a a uhhh...is that right???
Oh my god...that's just horrible. I did not realize this as a child of the 80's. No wonder the posters only ever showed the exterior...
Cost of raising a child with Autism: $1,400,000 - $2,400,000.
I actually like this. I would enjoy commuting in this...but I feel like it just can't be worth quite that much. If this was a CA car, and a bit cheaper, I would rock it. Needs rear wheel bearings, and all the BS associated with smogging it out here would suck.
I'm a SoCal guy, so pretty much don't drive in snow unless on vacation to the mountains. I've only ever driven 4wd trucks/SUVs in the snow, with chains and without. So I really have no idea about FWD in those conditions. I will say that the Flex feels lighter than it is in the handling department, in general. Might be…
I got to ride in a premier Class 1 SCORE off-road race buggy (shit, probably 15 years ago), but this was probably the exact same faces I was making. I definitely remember laughing out loud into the intercom. If only GoPros and selfies existed back then...
Question: is there any temperature "control" in the car? Looks very cold to my SoCal eyes. Like, all that white stuff on the ground - is that white mud? Seriously though, are the racing suits adequate? Racecars are usually so much hotter inside than ambient outside temp, so I'm curious if there is any actual method…
We came from an Expedition into a Flex. It's exactly as you describe. It never even really feels smaller than the Expedition when you need the space, but it feels waaaay smaller when your're in it, and drives like a proper car. I can't praise it enough, and my wife freakin loves the thing. My DD is a sporty E46, 5spd,…
We have a '13, so I have no idea what headrest thing your describing, but otherwise I have to say that I completely agree.
I don't disagree with the "people wanting minivans" statement, but as such, we bought a Flex exactly because we wanted to good things about a minivan (cargo capacity, efficient use of it's size/shape, car-like dynamics and economy) without looking like a minivan (i.e. sliding doors, swoopy curvy rounded everything,…
This was me 2 years ago. We love ours, and the 2-tone really does look sweet (ours is like brown-gray with black top). It feels much bigger than it is, in that it's an efficient use of space, but drives like a much smaller sporty car. My only dislikes: FWD torque steer is bad, and the steering is too light for me. But…
