That’s the thing about Uber/Lyft- the rider is specifically looking for a certain make/model/color. I bet that girl asking if a Mustang was her Uber was juuuust bright enough not to bother asking a guy in a Miata, but not bright enough to differentiate between a white Ford Mustang and, say, a white Ford Fusion.

THAT’S a joke to you? Wow.

But they’re not supposed to give their address out to strangers.

And for obvious reasons.

Maybe it’s the way you ask :-O

Hence the quotation marks.

None of that is necessary and none of that would prevent idiots from getting into the wrong car.

I don’t think you get how “ride sharing” works.

I find in these situations, about half the time I’m so stunned by the other person’s ignorance that I can’t even gather myself enough to walk them through the logic. Fortunately, the other half I accept how stupid people can be so I am composed enough to say something like “Did Uber tell you a White Mustang was…

For one thing, being unfamiliar with the area has nothing to do with recognizing the car Uber/Lyft said was picking you up. For another, it is now more common for the signs to glow at night for even easier spotting.

A 5.0 in a BRZ would be great, but a tight squeeze in such a small car. A mustang would have to be a little bigger than that. But damn, Ford, at least strive for BRZ dimensions, not Explorer dimensions.

Yeah, basically closer to BRZ in size, but not limited to a NA 4 banger and low rent interior of the Toyobaru.

I always thought I’d like the Mustang a lot more if it were similar dimensions to the original. The modern car is too big. Same for the Camaro.

Those wheels aren’t chrome; they’re barely even polished. But they do have that cheap Pep Boys look to them. The sidewall ratio looks fine to me, so it must just be the wheel design.

I test drove one about 5-7 years ago when helping my grandma shop for a car. I almost didn’t see two pedestrians at two separate intersections and immediately removed the Fit from the list of considerations.

Terrible A-pillar blind spot, especially for a new, teen driver.

That’s only if you start out in Philly. If you start our in San Diego, you end up in the Altai mountains of Mongolia.

Yep! The time I rode my friend’s I kept thinking two things:

Nice article. It’s great to see a long-term test.
