I have no experience with the new Prius, but holy smokes did Consumer Reports dis on it. Lousy visibility, super low seating position, mediocre handling.. it was a shocking bloodbath of a review, considering what we think CR typically favors. But then again, they don’t like the Polestar 2 much either.

Seriously, that 4-skin/4-douches/4-skipper NEEEEEEDS a good pink paint job. And a license plate frame that says “World’s Best Grandma.” THEN it would be cool.

How odd to think these “new” 2023, accessible, affordable cars will soon be only MONTHS old and already listed on auction sites as “the rarest of rare,” production cars. They’re right up there with Lamborg— no .... Jaguar wagons!

GREAT idea. He is trying so hard to cheat her out of child support. What a sick, demonic, vile man he is. 

As I’ve said since it got renamed (in the US) to Carnival, nobody wants to drive something named after a place with barf-inducing food, or worse, a Covid infected ocean hell. Now the Carnival IS the death ride itself. I love vans but no bueno.

Purists, correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the Prelude, at least in the US, <always> have a standard glass moonroof ? (It was the first Honda to offer one.) SO if we’re getting all fussy about it being true to the Prelude concept, that ridged roof suggests this won’t have an opening moonroof. As an opening roof fan,

I think you’re being too kind about Musk. He’s also anti worker, anti woman, turned off Starlink for Ukrainians, supports an accused rapist, lied about ending world hunger, accused one of the heros who saved the Thai soccer team from the cave, as being a “pedo,” for no reason, but you get the point. I’ll never give

I’d forgotten all about car bras. Thank you. As a gay dude, that was the only kind of bra I was thinking about in the 80s and 90s.

If Honda could “make it simple” and bring back the Element with an emphasis on “elemental,” it could be the smart, sexier alt to the 4Runner. Plug in, super efficient, wipe it out, bidirectional charging, total versatility, like a van, without being in the same sandbox as the ID Buzz or Sienna (and 4Runner), it could

Yeah, yeah, Element, Element etc.. BUT I’m not skipping past that fact that you have an XF Sportbrake. Utter unicorn. You’re of 250 in the entire country. Tell more! Such a beautiful vehicle.

These are rad. I’ve got another. Comuta-Car in Marin County, Ca. IMAGINE how fast SIX horses are?

Even aReal Housewife of New York” ( albeit, the chic-est ,definitively tasteful Jenna Lyons) is calling out over-logo use. The point is, no. No, this is NOT cool. Logos are ok. Respected ones like Rolex are in .5 point type on a watch. Discreet. That’s not un-classy.

I love that idea but Toyota is too much of a Trump supporter to really jump ahead in the EV world, at least for now. 

Like when someone says a movie is SO bad, and you want to watch, to see HOW bad it is, I really wish VinFast would offer 24 hr test drives (or 36 or whatever) just so some of us could experience what a modern, lousy vehicle is. It would be interesting.

What a botched lead up. I’ve never EVER planned to get a Chevy. Like, I’ve had Volvos, a Datsun, Saabs.. Chevy isn’t my trajectory yet the Blazer had some appeal. But they doubled the price (I’m not your accountant, calm down if I got the math a little wrong) and suddenly, I’m STILL never going to get a Chevy, I

Wagons are cool, but let’s get real, even if you call the Toyota Corolla Cross a wagon, they aren’t fun unless you spend $75k on a Volvo XC60 plug-in or an MB.

Lucid is the SAAB of EVs. If you know, you know. Otherwise, it’s an odd duck with an un-sexy, sedan form, no SUV (maybe they need a Trailblazer Lucid to = the SAAB 9-7?), debatable prestige ROI when there’s an EQS that’s leasable at Ford Fusion rates... and living in a VERY pro EV, affluent area, I’ve seen TWO Lucids,

There are two things keeping me out of a Y. No rear wiper and Elon. I don’t buy stuff from a guy that hates women, lies about vaccines, complains about government subsidies but takes millions in them, pays less taxes than you and me, cares nothing about worker rights, lies like a rug... nope. Not for me. I also don’t

I have no beef with the Tesla vehicles. They look great, whichever model. The power, efficiency, safety are outstanding. Now the value is there too.

Just one of the many reasons we’ve had and greatly enjoyed four minivans (and no kids)
