Yes, they are increasing. Do you think this increase would be the same if automakers hadn’t slashed prices to significantly unprofitable levels? Something’s gotta give. 

Classic case of no one knowing what the words “sports car” and “entry level” mean. The Miata and GR86 are the only new cars that fit the bill. BMW 4 series? Go home internet, you’re drunk.

This company and Rivian are at the forefront of EV excellence in this country. Brilliantly engineered vehicles that also look incredible. Unfortunately both are losing money hand over fist. It’s a shame. Lucid makes a great EV sedan but people want EV sedans even less than they want EV SUVs and trucks.

This “high revving small engine” concern is an old wive’s tale these days. My Bronco Sport and previous Escape had 1.5L 3 cylinder engines with 8 speed transmissions. On the highway that drivetrain is supremely quiet. Like turbine smooth. And returns high 30's and even low 40's in mpgs depending on conditions. It…

I’m over here just laughing at the notion that those wanting “more luxury” can “step up” from a 2016 Mazda CX-9 to a Buick Envision of the same vintage. Mazda’s interiors have historically punched above their weight class, even back in 2016. Like, it ain’t even close. I remember the Mazda being dinged at the time for…

Well, Chick-Fil-A also uses actual chicken chunks, so there’s that too, lol.

I used to be in the Wendy’s camp. But I had a few batches of hot and fresh McNuggets and I was converted. But a hot and fresh spicy Wendy’s nugget is pretty great. I just don’t get them hot end fresh very often. Plus they closed the two…

The best chicken nuggets are the OG. McNuggets. Having a fresh one is an experience. The crispy breading is actually a separate entity from the chicken. And they are fresh more often than the competitors. Wendy’s spicy nuggets aren’t bad. BK’s are abyssmal.

This is the Fusion refresh you are referring to. And it was much better.

I’d agree in most cases, except for the Daimlerberus era Chrysler interiors. There wer all one or two steps below their competitors in every metric. Materials were terrible but they were also actively trying to be ugly and misshapen.

I love that show. Not a lot of shows make me laugh out loud multiple times these days. This is one of them.

I ate an entirely vegetarian meal. Except for the hot dog. And the bacon.

A beautiful and supremely luxurious interior all wrapped up in a decidedly underwhelming exterior that looks like someone put paper cutouts of Bentley details and taped them to last gen Audi Q7.

Hot take incoming.

I think they might need a nap, so this should be perfect, really.

The relaxation modes are for stationary use, not while driving.

In high school I learned about propaganda. I wish those lessons had been taught to or understood by everyone, because we are in the thick of it now. One of the cornerstones of democracy is a free press, and ours has been undermined and/or co-opted by one political party in particular. And I’m sorry, the degree of…

You very likely may be correct about the damage to the subframe.. However, I’d also like to point out that the F-150 didn’t make it to the end of that row of cement culverts because it has the longer wheelbase (and bed) of a normal truck and therefore got high centered.

Nah, you just picked the wrong day to regurgitate Fox News talking points on a forum populated by people connected to reality.  Have you read Harris’s Wikipedia page?  Doubt it.  Her actual record as AG of both San Francisco and CA is very impressive.  She also not a decrepit windbag with a combover and a supperating…

For the most part I would agree. Saying inflation is only about corporate greed is simplistic. It plays a part, for sure, but it’s a very complex issue. I don’t like it when politicians try to boil complex issues down to fiery talking points. But you know what I don’t like even more? Weird, egomaniacal clown babies…

Good point. Things happen I guess. But a lot of people purposely “lapse” their insurance as well. I guess I shouldn’t pass judgment on which case this is.
