“Thinking man’s full-size truck”? Meh...
With that grill, it looks more Hyundai than Toyota.
Can we get a Tourist Trophy out of this?
All DLC for GT Sport was free, except that weird Lewis Hamilton time trial thingy. They released something like 100 cars post-launch, plus a number of tracks, and didn’t charge a cent for them. I’m not too worried about microtransactions.
Jalopnik, can we please get an expose on Lit Motors as well?
Ford Flex. It wasn’t a flop, but selling a little over 300,000 units during a run of 12 model years wasn’t enough for the blue oval. Selling a CUV alternative is tough when your customers overwhelmingly prefer a regular old CUV. The cool and funky wagon-ish vehicle lost out bigly to the generic blobs. Sad!
Only 35k ever made over a 4 year run. Partially because GM killed the brand (along with Pontiac), and partially because it filled a niche between the Corvette and Miata (and the base level competed directly with the Miata)...an answer to a question few really asked.

If the iQ had been available with stick I might have considered one.
The answer is Suzuki Kizashi, right?
78 Dodge Challenger, made by Mitsubishi, it was actually the best generation Dodge Challenger :o)
Man, I lost all desire for these kinds of machines a while ago. I’m not sure when it happened, exactly, but at some point I discovered that ‘serious’ performance cars just don’t interest me. They’re too intellectually heavy. There’s no figurative lightness to them. They do what they do - and they do it exceptionally…
Does BMW really NEED an X1-X9 ???
Crossovers.
