Obligatory joke about Toyota/Lexus grills.

A fitter, happier, more productive paranoid android.

More popular than you think...every time I see it I think over-wrought toddler whose had too much sugar not enough sleep that just needs to throw up and pass out already.

“Lien Out!”

I’m glad I’m not the only person who thinks the inter..i...or...zzzzz...zzzzz...zzzz

I hate to perpetuate the Steve Jobs comparison, so I’ll raise it up to a more abstract level. If Musk is on the hero’s journey his promoters say he is, then he absolutely has to be cast out from the company he built and go off to learn a valuable lesson. Only then can he return and be the triumphant savior.

Actually I don’t hate this car, and would’ve voted NP...but rebuilt title = instant cp for me. I know this doesn’t have to be a deal breaker, but it is for this car at that price.

Does Tracy’s planned Moab run in that rust bucket he calls a Jeep have anything to do with this decision to leave?

I am extremely curious as to why a Miata is not the answer for this couple. Like distractedly curious. I don’t really care if they want something else...but how can you be that categorically against the most obvious choice and not explain your reasoning. I mean, did someone they know die in one? Did one of their exes…

You are correct, sir.

Unfortunately, I’m in Texas and can’t offer much more than the cliched “thoughts and prayers”. Nevertheless, good luck! I don’t get why you do what you do, but you do it with passion; and that I understand.

First: Is it possible that one factor driving the drop in Model 3 demand is the announcement of the Model Y?

Exactly...at $5k, it's an easy NP. But a $10k budget opens up a lot of much better/cooler options. 

How was the learning curve with the infotainment? With all the negative press it’s gotten, I was thinking it would test the limits of my wife’s patience (which is minimal with when it comes to technology). However, she got the chance to play around with it last weekend and was pretty nonplussed. Is the criticism…

On the Infotainment...is it just a mild refresh of what Acura has been doing in their vehicles? Or is what the RDX has plus a second screen? I guess I’m just confused as to why they’ve taken different approaches with the two vehicles.

LOL...my wife took one look at the Telluride and declared she hated the grill (she’s very judgy about grills). The interior is pretty slick though for a non-luxury brand. They also aren’t as big as I thought they’d be.

The heart wants what the heart wants.

Agreed.

I do like the Tuscon as well as the Santa Fe...Hyundai is making some good stuff. I’m stoked about the 2020 Sonata. I’ve heard rumors off a N performance version and AWD. If those turned out to be true (probably won’t), it would go to the top of my next car list.

I really can’t find fault with any decently spec’d sedan that has a manual option.
