I don’t really have much sympathy for the C40 owner. The second guy yes, because most people in poor financial situations would probably not opt for the additional payoff coverage or GAP coverages for auto insurance. But the C40 owner could have researched this first, none of the issues are unknown, as I’m currently…

I personally don’t disagree with you. I don’t insist people call me “doctor” even in my professional setting; I also encourage students and trainees to just use my first name. But that’s a personal choice; many people with a doctorate, including many of my own colleagues, feel differently. Yes, ultimately much of that…

As an MD doctor, I don’t really get what the fuss is about. If I am at work, seeing patients and performing my task as a physician, I have no issue introducing myself as Doctor. But outside of this exact context, I don’t feel that it is necessary nor do I need to have my ego stroked outside of this exact context. If I…

so the flipper zero, which is used in the headline to generate clicks, is almost completely irrelevant to the story but

Sounds like the poster here has 1 kid, which I think the GTI would work great for, when you get up to 2 + a dog, I completely agree that you would need a larger vehicle. I think of the GTI like a Swiss army knife or a Leatherman tool, It does alot of things great and is good enough for most things in a pinch. But…

At the risk of sounding repetetive, VW GTI is a great car for this. I still look back fondly at my MK6.

This bodes well for GM and their custom system that is supposed to be better than Carplay and Android Auto.

Talk about ripe for an ambush. I can just imagine Robin Hood’s band of merry men hiding within inches of the path ;)

Bad Excuse, as GPS has gotten much better, and only something out of date or set as foot traffic would do it... But in their defense, many of the small back roads in the UK look like walking paths to me.

It can easily make alot of sense depending on how you structure it and how you do things.

This one will have all the advantages of Fiat’s legendary Reliability.

I learned all this the hard way in my first month of PHEV ownership in Dec. I have no less than 7 apps for charging the car, and I’ve gone to “phantom” charging stations that aren’t up yet. This isn’t ready for prime time yet, because there’s Zero chance my mom would know what to do, how to charge or find alternative…

It can still be fun lol.

Large rims and Low profile tires. Somehow it always is part of higher trim packages. After dealing with 5 replacement tires on my GTI, I vowed to have the largest tire and smallest rim as possible on all my future cars.

I agree that it’s not “Dangerously Slow” lol. That’s just pure hyperbolic nonsense, but I do have to say that if you drove the car before and it behaved a certain way, and a software update drastically changed the way it behaved, then it could cause issues or accident because the same car behaves in a drastically…

I think the issue is how Tesla functions as compared to traditional car companies. Once a model is fixed for production for traditional automakers, they don’t make any significant changes until a new model, and some minor ones for a refresh. They will churn out a bunch of parts for repairs, and retain the tooling to…

Or some people like me, I purchased a PHEV 3 months ago, and now I have a level 2 charger installed. But I’m A. Not sure about a Hyundai and B. not sure about a pure EV either. But I’d be up for trying it for a month.

The belt parkway in Brooklyn going towards Manhattan. Near Exit 26 Hamilton parkway. I have never encountered a time without traffic, even 2 am. And it’s 4 lanes of traffic merging into 2 with all the great driving skill of people in New York. The FDR is a joy by comparison.

This is something I have discovered in the past 2 months with my PHEV. I have no less than 6-7 apps on my phone just to charge at the local chargers I go to in the NYC/Jersey area. On top of that, sometimes the chargers are just broken, and sometimes. I have seen Teslas just parked in the public charging spots, not…

I always hated the way they played games with it. How about show me how much something costs, and I can figure out any savings myself? I don’t mind if you want to show me what rebates etc I am eligible for based on location, but the “cost post savings” is like a slap in the face for anyone remotely intelligent. It…
