You can’t put picture of Fulvias like that without a NSFW warning dammit.

I don’t really like aftermarket radio. They look tacky as fuck usually. I had one in one on a Mazda Protege, It worked fine and even better than the stock stereo ( which was giving up the ghost) but it looked like absolute shit

They do break. Sometime the marking get erased, sometime it physically break ( like lever and things) or they just stop working. It’s like everything mechanical, bad design do exist in switches. They normally take decades to wear out though. Most switches however, they are going to be fine for a long time.

Well Mazda could certainly help design a better platform with FCA without using the GJ platform. Mazda is almost more Alfa Romeo than Alfa itself (I’m not talking about rust here but driving pleasure) With that said, we have to see if the mid-size sedan is still a big thing or not. Because Let’s face it, crossover are…

But I have to say that I think it is more likely that Toyota take control than FCA.

I did a little research on the matter. Ford still own about 2.1% in Mazda. Appart for the shared platform of olde and a few little technical exchange, they are as independent to each other as it gets. Toyota doesn’t have any stock in Mazda as of today. They are just “long-term strategic partner”.

The simple answer to that is: Murica !

No the Avalanche was a suburban with the back half hacked off. THis is a silverado with plastic thing in the bed. It is WAAAYYYYYY cheap to make.

I though you were about to talk about that kind of car/truck. I want one so bad.

Mmmm. interesting.

Ouccchhhh no good. How many millions do you think Nissan offered for that URL ?

Yeah I forgot about Prince. I don’t totally agree with you. Ss said in the article, Mitsubishi as as stronger brand recognition than Nissan in some market. I think one of the reason Mitsubishi is still on the market in the US is Canada. While it isn’t incredible, they are stronger here than in the US. But still,…

Fuji isn’t totally independent. Toyota as 16.5% share in it. Daihatsu was under Toyota influence since a long time ago, there is nothing new here. I don’t see ho they all could merge into 2 company. They are probably going to be 3 or 4 company a some point. But 2 entity in a 4 years span ? It is not happening. My bet…

Kawasaki and Yamaha doesn’t make car. You named honda twice. Mitsuoka is way smaller and more boutique than the others. They just make “Pimped” version of other cars and you missed Subaru.

Not that much. A few grand top for now at least.

It is available in Canada I think. Maybe not the Isuzu idk but the Mitsubishi Fuso are available in 4x4

Matt said in the Smoking Tire podcast that he want it to go to the Toyota Museum in Torrance. When he told them about it they were open to the idea if I remember correctly.

You should definitively check out World War II in colour if you haven’t already. The images are fantastic.

Obvious question is obvious.
