Only 5% of buyers want wagons - kill the wagon

For now, I would suggest a lightly used Panther car, probably a Grand Marquis. You can get a like-new 2005-2011 MGM with less than 50k miles on it for around $5k-$6k, maybe less. There are plenty of them around (old people bought them new, hardly drove them, and they end up at estate sales). They’re dead cheap to…

Neutral: Trucks are just a substitute for land yachts. The family sedan of yore used to have a 20+ cuft trunk, seating for 6, and come priced well enough that you didn’t feel bad using and abusing it. Modern sedans just aren’t a good value compared to trucks, especially once you factor in resale value. A full size…

90% of who? Small truck sales are repeatedly blown out of the water by full sized trucks. 

Think what you will and jump on the trend if you want but try and be realistic. If the oceans were going to rise and flood the earth in 10 or 20 years would banks really be financing beachfront developments? No they wouldn’t.

Neutral: No its not a problem. “Global warming” is a money transfer, nothing more.

Skyactiv-G = gasonline
Skyactiv-D = diesel (compression ignition)
Skyactiv-X = cross (X, get it?) between gasoline and compression ignition.

Hey manufacturers:

I think I’ve figured out why we are at odds. its a matter of markets. here in the US there is no “optioning up” a Land Cruiser. They all come the same way:

Man, this whole post is nail on the head.

No- you are wasting money. Once a year even seems crazy to me.

If the Police get rid of their Chargers for Tesla’s, how will they refill the battery?  Seems shortsighted to me. Typical government...

Are you blaming Republicans for possibly not meeting your birth mother and her extended family? It seems like unnecessary detail you went out of your way to write.

Trump supporter here (from a general policy perspective, not personal). You’re full of shit. We certainly don't like this situation or take pleasure in other people getting screwed.

I just recently learned the etymology of the phrase “pig in a poke” which apparently references how livestock was sold in Ye Olden Days. A poke was in fact a bag that was used to carry young pigs to market. A derivative of the word poke is the small bag sewn into clothing which eventually became known as a  “pocket.”

I sooo wish Honda would get off their damn high horse and make the AWD one already. Here in upstate NY you actually do get the use the benefits of AWD and Sienna is the only game in town.

“You can get an AWD Tahoe LS for $50k. Granted, that’s base level, but the Tahoe is a significantly more luxurious car”

Q: Right. Now pay attention, 007. First, your new car - BMW Agile 54 with gears. Scraped bumpers. Peeling clearcoat. And, naturally, all the usual refinements. Now, this I’m particularly proud of - clouded headlights, and an unidentified electrical gremlin!

There’s this space to the right, and sometimes to the left, of the driving lane. It’s called a “shoulder” or a “breakdown lane”. It’s for pulling over in an emergency situation. Not being able to see out your fucking windshield is an emergency so pull the fuck over! 

So, Toyota’s US car lineup includes a Mazda sedan, a Subaru coupe, and a BMW coupe. Separately, Toyota appears to be pouring money into their bread and butter trucks, SUVs (both large and baby), and hybrids.
