I simply don’t understand the Tesla-Stans. Yes, the cars are cool, good looking, and perform (for the most part). But, that is used to gloss over: deceptive/fraudulent marketing practices about its self-driving capabilities, blatant manufacturing safety issues, build quality issues, anti-labor efforts, and Musk’s own…

I have only been watching F1 for three years, so I don’t have a large base of knowledge and maybe I falsely feel like I just “want a good race.” That being said, I actually am just kind of in the middle about Max. He’s obviously really good and fun to watch; but sometimes over aggressive and maybe toes a line there he…

Stereo certainly increases the enjoyment factor immensely. Better tires, brakes, or shocks can make an unsafe car safe again. 

He’s not the only one:

Anything Mitsubishi has sold in the US in the last 10 years, including the Eclipse Cross.

First, the Aztec (though deserving of derision in many ways) was ahead of its time (essentially being a crossover) and definately 100X cooler than a “Nissan Cross Cabriolet” in terms of being a risk. The Nissan is just, “hey, what if we put all the bad ideas together.”

I am a big fan (and have owned) both the XJ Cherokee and the Mk.V based GLI, so really happy to see both of those mentioned in the article.

As is suited to one of the ultimate sleeper sedans, Ronin also includes one of the most subtle performance car references ever:

Wasn’t there an attempt in the 80s to stop speeding by just mandating that Speedometers couldn’t go above 85mph? I feel like there are some last C3 or early C4 Vettes with 85mph speedos?

Honest take: most cars on American roads are probably mechanically unsafe above 100 mph due to poor maintenance, too long life on the road, and poor condition of roads in general.

So, maybe these are my own pre-conceived biases and very likely completely unfounded, but here I go anyways: we know that a lot of people who have purchased Teslas, including the incredibly high performing versions of those vehicles, are not traditional “car enthusiasts. And, we know that the ability to buy…

The only Routan I have ever seen up close was a VW service center shuttle vehicle when I had my Jetta.

This video really made my day!!!! Luigi’s excitement is awesome.

Seriously, that’s your take away from this? 

I’ve got a 2014 Cherokee with a 3.2 V6 making about the same power as the Telluride (275-ish). Two-row and physically much smaller, but I’m still only getting about 20/26 mpg (22-24 combined). I don’t want something as big as the Telluride, but it’s not because I’m seeking huge efficiency benefits in the smaller…

I thought the Venza was dead? 

Every review of the Telluride makes me wish I had more kids so I could justify a three row.

So, the 2021 study just explains how a supply and demand graph works, I guess?

My first thought was driver under the influence/not paying attention. But, upon further review, it seems entirely intentional, if only because the driver doesn’t apply the brakes when he hits the traffic gate. Instead, waiting until after he’s cleared (or almost cleared) the jump. That seems pre-meditated to me.

How, in all of the world of Action Adventure, do you not have Sigourney Weaver in this (Alien, Aliens, Alien 3, Alien Resurrection)?
