I agree, he seems really toxic, and pretty much brags about being toxic. I loved his response to you, he fell back on the stereotypical “say that to my face”, he can’t even muster up a anything original.

I’m wondering why parts store doesn’t get it’s own vehicle if their business is such it’s driver puts in 200k miles a year.

My main take away is the line “testing in the US” lol

Growing up my neighbor had one and he swore by it!

I don’t think the Regal is technically a captive import since GM controlled both Opel and Buick when it was planned out, it kind of morphed into being one with the sale to PSA but it’s still essentially a GM product . And do we consider the Opel Mokka to be a captive import? It’s still build in Bupyeong South Korea at …

It’s odd to think the Raptor width if half the length of my Vibe.

If you break it down by piece it’s only like $4 per key which is completely reasonab....wait what?

“I believe a lot the fascination”
“I still believe it’s a question of price a lot of the time.”
“Again, not talking in absolutes, but...”
I’m not painting anyone as cheap as frankly the prices of full size trucks is a bit out of control. I’m saying the fullsize buyer’s desire for a less expensive option is fueling the…

Muddling the matter even more is the racist view of Filipinos prevalent in a large segment of the Chinese population.

In the case of Toyota, Tacoma has always outsold Tundra, so Tundra’s will get the deals. Again, not talking in absolutes, but the buyers who covet smaller nimble trucks have tended to turn to Japanese brands for decades. US brand buyers tend to want the big experience which is why the S10/Colorado and Ranger died out…

While there’s a segment of people who buy them for that reason I still believe it’s a question of price a lot of the time.

I still think there’s room for smaller pickups, back when I was growing up my friend’s dad had a Chevy Luv that he swore by, he used it to haul stuff all the time. I believe a lot the fascination with the larger mid sized trucks now if from people who *want* a full size truck, but don’t want to pay for/ can’t afford…

It’s kind of sad because the 6th gen Grandeur/Azera that debuted for 2018 looks great. That sad I read last month that Hyundai has trademarked “Grandeur” in the US.

While it was discontinued here in 2009 and in South Korea, production only just ended a couple months ago as it had continued on in China and several other markets.

That’s the trouble with trying to protect idiots from themselves, you’ve go to do like 100 times the amount of thinking they do.

Sure, screw the environment, we need to get the idiots to stop any way we can!

I can think of a beloved cartoon character that takes to your choice of adjectives.

Go look at the area on Google Street view, note all the signage leading up to the bridge. The fact anyone could be so stupid as to pass through is mind boggling. You can’t counter that level of stupid ineptitude with anything short of eugenics.

Small hole in this plan, the temperature is actually below freezing (26 °F) in Durham NC as I type this.

A manual hatchback from Mazda with optional AWD that looks like an Alfa Romeo Brera.
Twerked that a bit to highlight the extra awesomeness of the Mazda 3
