TBH I don’t think most ADV riders that actually do extended trips. They actually make great commuter bikes. The upright riding position is comfortable and great in traffic, and luggage options let you get groceries or run other miscellaneous errands.

At 70mph, 64 or 80 with the power tank

Why would you ever buy any piece of technology when you could wait a few years and have a better version for the same price?

That whole industry needs to die anyway.  Even without a pandemic those things are public health nightmares.  Notorious pollutors and tax dodgers to boot.

I am also hoping, but also my gut tells me that this will not be a peaceful transition of power. 

I am trying this for my kei truck.  Thanks so much for the tip!

Oh come on. You honestly gonna tell me that you think the Grand Tour is still as good as Top Gear ever was?

WILD INTERNET SPECULATION TIME:

Watch the driver die this time and the internet casually walk away whistling.

Seems like it’s about 10K more than the most direct competitors...is it worth it?

Is it me or do the proportions of the interior just look...off somehow?  Like the dash is either way too low or the armrests and center console are way too high?

I think it looks pretty decent. I’m more worried that it will be cost 1.5x as much as the competition with no discernable benefits.

Also completely ignores the fact that to be on a plane, you have to have gone through an airport.

How are you just gonna pass on Hot For Teacher, with that absolutely pedal-mashing intro?  FFS the opening drum riff sounds like a crotchety old muscle car getting warmed up.

How the fuck you gonna run a 1.5 BILLION dollar company selling some of the most expensive cars in the world and have to lay off a quarter of your staff after TWO FUCKING MONTHS of poor sales?

Will the CVT still shit itself at 100k miles?

A Wranger with a Hellcat seems like an absoulte recipe for disaster.

Two years old and 60% off?

Yeah, until the 2nd wave hits, which will be worse than the first.
