I think they have to be pretty technical, to make sure you can unlock the doors from only the outside, can only start the car when the keys are inside and can't lock them in there. Otherwise I would understand the loathing of them. The convenience it adds is totally worth the complexity to me. Having the battery…

For some reason, I have seen a lot of Luddite-ish hate for smart keys here, even though the reasons weren't really objectively good ones. I'll take all my future cars with smart keys and push button ignition thank you very much, because in my experience it is that good. I am just fine with zero chances of locking my…

Exactly, he should have just turned it in at the end and washed his hands of it. This dude is clearly an attention whore. I feel sorry for whomever ends up with this car when BMW resells it.

Back when we did some major renovations on our home, I drove an altima coupe. I spent a good couple grand on supplies at home depot, enough to load up one of those flat hand carts they have there to use. When it came time to load up the car, the person helping us took one look at it and just laughed. I folded the…

That was your stability control, which is different from traction control in that it uses the brakes on selective wheels to correct your slide.

It does work as a submarine, however it is the "wet" type, meaning it fills with water and the occupants must have scuba gear.

I've had that same limit (200mb) for over 2 years, and have never gone over. I got up to 150 mb last month because we went for a Labor day getaway at a place with no wifi. I have wifi at home and work, so I rarely even go over 100mb per month. I was of the same opinion, I don't want a data plan when I already pay…

Technically, the EX35 (QX50) is a small wagon with ample ground clearance. This Q30 is definitely more of a hatch/wagon than the EX was, which is why it doesn't get an X after the Q in its name.

In the bayou, they refer to marshmallows as "gator crack" because they LOVE them and can't get enough. Somebody was definitely smoking crack when they came up with this concept. I can't even see why anyone would want any part of this car. Maybe someone who is really really hardcore into alligators?

Pure genius! I'd never heard of this company before this, and now you are helping them advertise . Not everyone who sees this will be quite as mortified as most of the comments here. If you are so opposed, perhaps you shouldn't be helping them achieve their goal.

The sender would not only have to know the recipient was driving, but would have to have knowledge that the driver would read the text that was sent while driving to share in the responsibility. EG: Sender: wut you doing?

I would imagine they are considering the power train from the Emerge -E concept. Supposedly it has 400+ hp and over 700 ft/lb of torque. If you can have all that and better gas mileage, why not?

When did people start using the word "literally" when they meant "figuratively"?

No, they are hard at work protecting the interest of big business and those in power rather than the bulk of their constituents.

These are cars that until lately may have been assigned to specific employees. In my state, recent trends toward transparency have caused large changes in policy regarding cars assigned to government employees. Specifically, employees who put mileage on cars assigned to them for personal use must now reimburse their…

Wait, votes were counted? The QOTD I saw had just as many people arguing against the inclusion of the nissan as for it. I'd like to see the vote count please....

That's just like, your opinion man... Please give an objective reason why it is impractical. NHTSA says it is roadworthy, and I'll take their word over that of a bunch of hipsters who can't keep their hands off their stick while driving and prefer wagons.

This car doesn't belong on this list. If anything, the MIATA should be on here instead. Any car with 2 or fewer seats is less practical than the Murano. Desirable? No, it isn't. Pretty to look at? No it's not that either. Expensive? yes it is. Those weren't what the question was. It's not a subjective…

The questions isn't which is the least desirable car, but which is the most impractical. Ugly as it may be, it is still more practical than anything with only 2 seats.
