Just like how automobiles themselves never caught on over horse and buggy, right?

As an added benefit, you won’t return to a car that has been absolutely baking in the sun and/or the majority of your walk in the rain/snow would be covered.

You’re not wrong.

Ooof, that rear end is not good.

Can we just have the boat get up a lot of speed and jump the continent?

That would be so much cooler.

He also had a bad habit of not cinching his seatbelts up because they were “uncomfortable”. But belts alone probably would not have saved him given the angle and speed of impact.

The Olds are absolutely terrified of roundabouts around here, too.

They will shout profanity at you and castigate you for attempting to follow their instructions.

You’re lucky it was just a loose connection rather than all of The Smoke being let out of the wiring.

I guess I lucked out with our two - a 20 footer and a 17 footer - when we moved 9 years back. I found them pretty easy to drive, obviously having to account for significantly more length, height and weight than vehicles I’ve driven in the past.

Interestingly, I tend to find the opposite is true - in that one will spawn somewhere ahead of me, going barely more than a crawl.

The amount of Optimas/K5s out there that drive like absolute dickheads is absolutely stunning.

Yeah, I think it’s not done so well after the “I’m really happy” redesign - it’s quite far behind other competitors in terms of sales in the segment.

The recent refresh helped to make it look considerably more appealing, but the interior still is a massive step down in quality/design from the previous generation.

It’s worth mentioning that the Escape outsells the Bronco Sport by about ~35k vehicles per year.

A solid plugin hybrid - especially one where the engine will not turn on without either A) telling it to via a specific mode or B) running out of electric range - is really quite ideal for many people.

God I miss F.E.A.R. What a wonderful game (with some incredibly smart AI for the enemies).

Forgot that I got a picture of it during the cruise:

Can we throw people like this away yet?

Yes - it was in wonderful shape!

When is the last time you saw one in the wild.
