How about the 2009 Kia Borrego. One year only, body on frame SUV, with a 4.6 V8 from KIA!!!  Never actually seen one in person, who knows how many are still on the road at this point.

they are in a container on their way to Dubai.

OUT! NOW!

A used BMW 1 series could also be a great budget sports car. Huge community of support and lots of upgrades available.

Said no one ever

I’ll throw the Civic Si out there. New is $30k ish and you can get a certifed used one for mid $20k range. Fun, great shifting, 4dr or 2dr options (2dr used only) and cheap to own. I think it’s a great option for a super fun sporty daily driver that won’t break the bank.

Any Jeep that is modified to the point that it’s useless for most things. Huge wheels that would be terrible offroad. Suspension so tall it would be a terrible daily driver. So ugly that it’s not a show car. Why did you spend $30k making your Jeep terrible and useless?

Diesel pickup are cool and have their place, but these assholes rolling coal in the faces of pedestrians and cyclists can fuck off.

How about getting a young FBI agent with blonde hair and a nice smile to go undercover to infiltrate the local scene of outlaw drivers? Maybe he gets a job at a parts store that sells NOS cylinders and intakes?

That happened to a guy in my state years ago who made the unfortunate decision to roll coal on an older guy in a convertible who happened to be the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles. It sent his wife into an asthmatic fit (fortunately she had an inhaler) but an hour or so later the state police showed up at the guy’s…

One of the few occasions where I think this should be a 1 strike you’re out rule. Get caught doing it, get your vehicle impounded. Then you have to pay impound to have it serviced to be put back to factory specs before you get it back.

Rolling Coal. This is just ignorant. Nobody wants to breathe in a cloud of diesel smoke.

Tesla Cybertruck, because the production model looks just like the concept.

“If anyone was stupid, it was the owner for making demands they knew they couldn’t enforce. The service writer knew what he was doing, I guarantee they were calling the customer an “asshole” and took the car out to spite him. They might not have even bothered if he didn’t say anything.”

One of the most broken minded…

Confession time: when I was 25 years-old, I briefly worked as a salesperson at a motorcycle dealership. One Saturday afternoon, the sales manager (probably about 30 years-old), asked if I wanted to go test out a customers Kawasaki Jet-Ski (yes, Jet-Ski) to see if the repairs had been successful. I thought, “Why not?”…

I see nothing in this article that makes me think the dealership did anything negligent or intentionally wrong, story is about a loser of a human being intentionally criminal. The service manager is a POS, make an example of him while attaching reasonable damages to the dealership as the entity with deep enough…

Power comes with range as a bigger battery can discharge more power or the same power with lower stress. For a car with a battery that supplies the range people want, it would essentially be intentionally hobbling the car to put a smaller motor in it for little savings in cost to the OEM at the loss of range from…

yeah i think any which way you slice it, electric is the way to go.... i have a stupid 100 mile round trip commute with traffic right now.... and when i get off the freeway, couple miles from my house... the last thing i wanna do is pay another $70 to stop at a gas station for gas and waste another 5 min just standing…

What Pontiac should have built was a production version of the Holden Coupe 60 concept:

Id think they would be considered a sub-brand of theirs at worst. Honestly I think this is overall a net good thing for Rivian. I think they were really needing the cash until the R2 comes out, that thing should really propel them forward rapidly (hope its good). I really want that company to succeed for some odd…
