Comparison to what? There’s no comparison here. It’s not Uber’s problem—look at the people dying because of this on a national level because contractors aren’t given access to healthcare. Uber isn’t required to give a shit until the laws change. What they’re doing is completely legal. Should it be? No. Is anything…

It’s not an Uber problem though. Look at the people dying because of this on a national level because contractors aren’t given access to healthcare. Uber isn’t required to give a shit until the laws change. What they’re doing is completely legal. Should it be? No. Is anything going to change by people bitching and…

Wow, it would have made them a whole $35,000 based on the rest of the Detroit market!

Rendering aside, it does not say it has a flappy paddle gearbox, it has a sequential manual transmission. This thing is a basically a Riley Daytona Prototype underneath, so it has a clutch pedal—the difference is, with a racing sequential box, you only use it at low speeds, not to shift.

Every year, drivers receive 1099 forms for their taxes instead of W-2s from Uber, revealing the ultimate have-your-cake-and-eat-it-too logic to Uber’s driver classification. 

Lmao, you might want to cut back on those bitter greens—they’re turning you a little angry my dude.

The answer to “would I own one” is the same answer as the following questions:

Ah, yes, Nissan, well-known for their modern, contemporary trucks

Damn, your life sucks, huh?

Welcome to dealers in Southern California and Instagram influencers who like the color blue and being unoriginal. New SUVs haven’t been cheap for 15 years.

Yeah, I bought this one sight unseen from Florida (I was in VT at the time) about two hours after it was listed, and for an ungodly low price, already built cosmetically but with some top side rust issues. I fixed the rust (some expensive areas that required sourcing cut-out replacement sections), and then ended up…

Ha. I registered it there before I relocated it to South Carolina, but this thing has not seen and will not see a grain of salt, lest it disintegrate. I have driven the piss out of it though (11k in about 8 months, despite it being a third vehicle). It’s been from Florida to Maine to South Carolina, to Texas, to…

I’ll stick with mine but sure, the fifth gen is okay. The problem is, these are not cheap—you can’t touch one for under $30k, and they’re definitely not worth the $70k that some dealers are asking for black wheels and blue paint.

Have you followed WRC recently? DJI had (has?) a sponsorship for that specifically, and has done a recap of every stage in every competition for the last couple years. WRC caught onto the drone game years ago, before it was possible to easily stream from a drone.

What you did is now called overlanding, it just didn’t have a name. Most people are still doing it in $2500 Subarus, but middle managers with 9-5 desk jobs who don’t have time to drive around for weeks on end want to have the overlanding “look” for their Instagrams, and companies (myself included) are more than happy…

That is very obviously what’s happened, yeah.

The door’s not fully closed.

could maintain some degree of perceived exclusivity and exoticism that brands like Volkswagen or Kia or Honda or Volvo lack.

Lol slow news day? There are about a dozen of these for sale at any given time. Plenty with low miles, too. Not a hard car to find.
