"By the way, the G6 is a car, not a plane."

1st gen (and possibly others) Ford Expeditions had similar issues. Granted, it wasn't the GEM module being defective that required it's eventual replacement, but rather poorly sealed windshields, allowing water to trickle in, run down wire loom, and splashing directly onto GEM... Caused various side effects, often…

I'd take a Lexus LX or GX over a BMW X5/6, GS over 5-series, and an LS over the 7-series.

Lexus FTW.

S/C and only 160bhp? What is the attraction for the Previas, especially over a Sienna with a 280hp 2GR-FE (also shared with the ALMS Lotus Evora GTE), and years of safety improvements?

Stock on Lexus LS430 as well...

I was wondering if anyone was gonna mention PlastiDip

Lexus LS430 here, other than a timing belt change that can get pricey every 90-100K miles (~$900-1200, not too insane), it's as smooth as day 1. Luxury, plenty of power, decent mpg, and none of the high ownership expenses typically seen with the Euro counterparts. It's easy to see why the LS has been considered THE…

I've heard the Raptor has to be shoehorned into normal spots with it's larger footprint. With that thought, I suppose an H1/H2 would also qualify...

Stupid E85... Only places to get true gas anymore seems to be at rural gas stations. And those are sketchy at best usually, with good chance tanks are rusty, and full of contamination & water...

Why don't we all move to Chicago? Well if we've learned anything, the weather SUCKS there! You apparently would have to be a glutton for punishment to move there and endure all that snow, 100% humidity, hellish heat, and tornadoes!

Lived in both AB (Edmonton) & BC (Surrey/Vancouver)...but whatever

You do realize the orange represents Sweden, and a visual aid for the person from Sweden wondering about the southern US, right?

Chill man, and not everyone down south hasn't seen snow and finds it impossible to drive in. This started as a joke, no need to get your feelings hurt. We all get that it can get warm and occasionally windy up north, and likewise it can get a little chilly down here. TX gets hit by an average 139 tornadoes per year,…

you win, ND sounds awful...

They also get all uppity when they come to visit and a tornado siren goes off :)

Minnesota & New York? That's practically Canada to us... :)

"100 degrees in Chicago is far worse then 100 in TX-OK-AR-LA as the humidity is significantly higher in Chicago."

OKC is northern? It's just up the street from Dallas! And they are far from dry heat, my friend! I've lived in Tucson, where 100 degrees is much, much different than 100-degrees in TX-OK-AR-LA!! Come visit some time, we're very friendly down here, and I think you'll like our air conditioning!

You are stuck on one city in the south, just like you are stuck with comparing just one from the north. If you must always use Chicago, try comparing then to DFW, Houston, Austin, OKC, Tulsa, Little Rock, etc. Now take your average conditions north of 40 degrees latitude, compare to southern midwest & southeast (we'll…
