Thank you! I was reading this while waking up this morning after going to bed with a headache. I was wondering if I has a stroke in the night and it fucked up my ability to see color.

Honestly. At this point my ideal infotainment system would just have a button where I could mirror my phone’s screen. However, amount of times I’ve gotten behind a minivan with porn playing on the flipdown screen tells me that is a bad idea to go public.

Really? I liked the way it drove. It was pretty nimble and drove like a much smaller car around town. It was pretty underpowered on the hwy, but I would drive it over 100 miles up hill to a ski resort without much issue. Just stick to the left lane and you’ll get there. 

I’m a big proponent of synthetic fuels. They will probably be costly, and maybe not even carbon neutral. But with everyone moving too  hybrids and electrics a little carbon isn’t too bad. 

I know that isn’t a popular option, but hydrogen is a pain in the ass at every step. There is a reason why after having this technology in its current form since the 60's we don’t really use it.

It take lots of power to make it, then you have to compress it and store it, then distribute it. At every one of these steps…

The Toyota Mirai weighs over 4000 lbs so I don’t really think it saves that much on weight.

As long as you understand what you are getting into this is NP all day long. The 4-pot has enough performance to make a fun daily or even a weekend car. Yeah you will have to be into wrenching and doing maintenance, but that is just the nature of the beast.

Now if you think you are just going to buy this turn and key…

The Aveo and the sonic are 2 very different cars. The first gen Aveos aren’t even chevys. The are Daewoos with a chevy badge. I owned one, it was the worst car I ever owned. Slow, heavy, cheap, and tiny with terrible gas mileage. The only thing good was the damn thing wouldn’t die. It just kept on groaning and tipping …

Lived in a few places so I have a few.

California Camper: Camping in the left lane for hundreds of miles no matter what. Left lane camping is so bad in California the right lane is normally used like a passing/fast lane.

Carolina Cutter: Taking blind corners in the inside lane, no matter what lane you are in. Small…

Idk, it seemed much worse when I live in the southwest instead of the southeast. At the same time when I was on a 2 lane twisty back road and a dude pulled off to let me past and I was baffled, turns out it is common in California. Never saw that in Georgia.

Ok maybe I’m missing the point of this but I’m going to say the Mustang.

When you turn to your readers for a good chunk of your content, you aren’t doing well.

I get’cha, but these things are not those. It would be like someone trading in their Miata cus it is small and loud vs realizing the seating position hurts your back. Some things are just immediately obvious.

Yeah, with them gone this site is going going to be a collection of articles of rabid Elon hate, general car hate, and the once daily terrible take on something in the news totally unrelated to transport.

If MIR taught us anything you don’t want to keep these things up forever. They are kind of like space trailers, they are prefab so they don’t repair very well. 

Yeah, it has never had great mpg, even with the CVT 2.0t. When you have 3 diffs for all time AWD, that doesn’t make fore great efficiency.

I’m not sure if Subaru just had some data that showed it was a good idea to get rid of it, it seems really puzzling. I think they sold about 50/50, and with SUV exploding in popularity it would seem that it would have been an upward trend.

I get it though. The amount of times I’m in my BRZ and a truck rolls up and completely blocks my view is about once a day. I was trying to merge from a stopped lane into a moving one yesterday, and because one of these houses on wheels was in behind of me I couldn’t see anything. but his grill. I had to wave him to go…

Yeah I know it is part of their identity, but between going electric and haldex cars that get 30+ mpg is it still worth it. I feel like if I ran Subaru I would have just dumped a bunch of R&D to make the best Haldex system possible. Also I would have put that hybrid cvt they made into everything and made it standard.  

With the auto and stock tires I got 42mpg driving cross country in my 2015 brz. Now with some stickier tires my mpg has gone down, but it still averages 30 mpg with a lot of in city driving.
