It used to be every time I saw a cloud of blue smoke chugging down the roadway it was an Intrepid. But now I don’t think I’ve seen an Intrepid in a decade.

You’re right, the Korean cars are much faster than the bubble-era stuff, and for a fraction of the price.

Is this related to my Costco taquitos getting recalled?

The whole article doesn’t make sense because they’re comparing the average price of an EV, a PHEV, or a normal Hybrid. They’re not actually listing out the premium automakers charge for the same model in a PHEV version, which is much more relevant. For example, the base Prius Prime lists at $5k more than the base…

The local Fleet Farm has an employee that drives a Ford EcoSport with a license plate that says “DJTMAGA” on it.

AI wrote the article? No one with a brain did a sanity check on the numbers? There’s a KBB article that makes the same mistake, quoting current used car values as original MSRP.
