I’m glad there’s a full time option, though I wish more people would check that box than what’ll actually happen. The number of JKs I see here in Colorado Ski country is immense, but I know most are being driven on dry pavement in 4WD or driven in deep snow still in 2WD, simply because we have so much combination…

Having owned and driven a MINI Cooper S convertible, I can say this is accurate, save one issue. When the top’s down, the studded winter tires are really loud.

That reminds me. The SVT Contour was a pretty good car.

Back in Windows 7 and 8 Land, I experienced exactly what you describe. In Windows 10, other than the initial install, I’ve never had an update take more than 7-8 minutes, including the reboot (and Windows 10 reboots are crazy fast in general).

So I’m destined to have a faraday future?

Fair point. Although the “New Stratos” appeared as a non-factory concept in 2009. If they had a plan to build it, there’s no reason it couldn’t have been debuted on the 2014-2015 car show circuit and launched concurrently with the Giulia in late 2015.

Two things:

Fiat missed a real opportunity to print cash when they didn’t build the new Stratos...

To be more accurate, they also bought the factory and offices, as well as a bunch of IP.

Really? I got a new key for my Viggen a couple months ago with no trouble at all.

I just bought two new Nissans, but because, apparently, my wife now wants a new car every two years, we’re going to be looking really closely at the 2019 or 2020 XC40 if this Volvo by Subscription thing works out for them. The idea of a single monthly price covering everything but gas is, for someone who’s OK with…

The configurator might be more simplistic than the actual buying experience, but if I’m spending crazy money, it seems odd I can’t customize the Urus as much as I can the (assumedly cheaper) Cayenne.

Tolls or taxes. Nobody rides for free.

There’s also this one (because one Ferrari V12 powered Wagoneer isn’t enough.

To be fair, every engine that was put in a Wagoneer at the factory was an OHV engine, so there didn’t need to be a lot of height.

Ah. Waggoner engine swaps are easy. I’ve seen:

Nissan reached a settlement with owners of. The Gen 1 CVTs (of which I was one). They modified the warranty terms, extending transmission coverage to 200,000 miles.

Seriously though, who is let down by Elio? It’s not like any sane or rational person ever thought they’d make it to market with a desirable product.
