I get Buick and Mitsubishi as a matter of guys NOT buying it, but I’m surprised as ‘women flock to it’ brands.

A lot of people are complaining about safety features, monitors, cameras, and what not. I’ll take all of the assists you can throw at me, although maybe it’s just experience. I got the full package in my Ram and so far it hasn’t been so bad.

As amazing as I thought that would be after hearing the first video, it simply sounds like the Tesla has some major mechanical problem happening in the second video.

Florida has become one of the cheapest, and one of the most popular. I have a saying “Just because it’s a Florida plate doesn’t mean they live in Florida.”

Depends on the type of person you are.

Depends on the model. I have a small GoWise air fryer at work and a Ninja Foodie 11 in 1 at home.

I mean it’s a good business move outsourcing the manufacturing process in TX. LOTS of cheap, available land, low cost of living, bunch of dumb non-union ‘bootstraps’ kinda workers who would sit around and watch paint dry if you ask ‘em to. The kind of people who think back-breaking manual labor is the path to riches.

Honestly, any of the small pickups on the list. S10, Oroch (sold as a small Nissan), Amarok, BT-50. All of them are missed opportunities that Ford is cashing in on.

Taxes aren’t and shouldn’t a tool for enforcing equality like you’re initimating with your 20x examples

Electronic parking brakes are generally dedicated to that piece of hardware. Electronic parking brakes work on a rotating worm gear that pushes the piston closed. You need electricity to activate, you need electricity to de-activate.

For $40-50,000+, it should.

I think you got that backward. I would take a Model 3 any day over a BMW or Mercedes. BMW generally has shitty long-term quality and durability... same for Mercedes.

It amazes me how many (mostly Nissan) drivers are blinding themselves with their daytime gauges and driving around without headlamps or tail lights. You would think something’s amiss when your gauges are giving you a tan. My wife would do this, too, in her Mazda. She’d crank up the gauge brightness because the moment…

GTA has taught me you’re supposed to ditch your car, stand out in the street until people stop, pull the driver from their car, and then drive the car up into the hills with no regard for terrain.

I’d say they’d all do just fine in the US, as evidenced by demand for the Maverick. De-rate the towing capacity (like the maverick’s 2/4,000lb), add a hybrid drive for a little more grunt, and adjust the tires/suspension to be more street-worthy.

It really depends on the previous owner(s). Yes, cars do last a bit longer, today, but when you’re buying a car for 164,000mi, there’s a lot of trust in that the previous owner(s) did their due-diligence to keep the car properly maintained and make sure it will last another 164,000mi without any major repair work.

I think you’re a little caught up in the “dismantling” part. Dismantling an entire law or policy just to replace it with a new one is incredibly wasteful when you can just amend or update an old one. If Cali wants to “add” a gas-guzzler or heavy-vehicle tax, it’s going to be amended onto your registration fees.

My wife sometimes does that sh*t.  Granted, most people trust my driving, my wife has a habit of either scaring the crap out of me for no reason OR saying nothing at all, often causing me to miss a turn.

Not really the worst, but kinda funny.

My E46 and E60 had auto-tilt mirrors, which were great for curb parking. The feature could be enabled/disabled by flipping the mirror switch from left to right.
