It’s a Jeep thing, you wouldn’t understand. 

My experience with Jeeps is that it’s a coin flip. You can get one that is flawlessly reliable, or get one that is always in the shop.

Jeeps and rangerovers all over this list.

I had a 2012 Cruze with the same thing.

the center door lock on my BMW. it is infuriating!

1990-2010 plastic parts in the engine bay. I’m looking at you BMW and VAG and your crappy plastic dipstick tubes, plastic water pump impellers, plastic EVERYTHING.

This is make/model agnostic, but a true summertime classic. Aluminum inlays on the top of shift knobs. Although a common bugbear in many cars, the one in my C30 gets ridiculously toasty after a few hours in the sun unless I remember to use a sunshade.

As a child of the 80s, when a quick stock street car did the 1/4 in 13s, I am absolutely flabbergasted that the SLOWEST 911 will happily run 12s all day long.

What’s more concerning is that the Cybertruk and well many electric cars, are stupid fast.  Like absurdly fast.  Dangerously fast.  Especially considering the types of folks that will often be driving them (dingbat tech bros).  If you see one of these things on the street, give it a wide berth. 

“Our simulations showed the full 1/4 mi race would be close but with the same net result, so no need to risk it.”

What’s crazy to me is they could have claimed that the Cybertruck can do a 13s quarter mile while towing a car and that would still be extremely impressive. But it’s on-brand for them to cherry pick numbers and misrepresent what their products can actually do.

I have had every rental car you can imagine over the years, but there was only one that I had to return because it was so bad: the Chevy HHR. Visibility was so bad, I did not feel safe driving it. 

Back in 2014 I was stuck with a Jeep Compass rental as a complimentary “upgrade” from the original subcompact I booked at National. To this day I have never driven a more miserable machine.

The Veyron is a very nice somebody else’s car, and I would love to meet and greet one from a reasonable distance one day. 

Glacier National Park, just before dawn, some time in late April 2003.

BMWs are overpriced but not as much as others. Every time when a new BMW comes out, I can tell they actually really tried to make a better one. Each generation they are more powerful and more efficient and new techs too. I think BMW is the least overpriced German luxury brand.

Especially if they share a platform with a non-luxury brand.

Hopefully the Teslavangelists won’t freak out too much given pretty much every other make was also included on this list... 

Any entry-level BMW, Mercedes, or Audi.
