The transmission is pretty decent, and it’s pretty good for a porky car in the twisties. When driving one, my issue was traction. It has a ton of power at low RPM but no ability to actually put it down. I liked it in the same way I liked 4th gen Nissan Maximas - it was pretty comfortable, and was great at being a…

I like Carplay, but I don’t want this. In fact, I don’t think the infotainment system should relate to vehicle controls at all - a failed touchscreen now locks you out of a ton of vehicle functionality and there’s no way for the aftermarket to fill in. Unless this became a common standard so any Carplay head…

It’s been a long time... but didn’t the Maxx have something weird about the rear seats that made them extra roomy or something?

That sounds dangerously close to regulations - not in my murica!

They’re just so... passionless and uninteresting to drive. With a car that boring, I guess mission accomplished because you might as well just ride in an autonomous car if the experience is that un-engaging :|

5 years in prison if caught purchasing a catalytic converter. Value of used cat = gone.

This whole article is excuses for being slow and having shitty range.

Yeah those panic moments when you’re sawing at the wheel are what came to mind. I used to love going to manufacturer track day schools, those were so fun. The Dodge SRT ones were always a hoot (an instructor helping you autocross an SRT-10 truck? WHY NOT?) but the subaru one, where they showed us pictures of *why* you…

Yeah but it’s a street car, that’s what I don’t like. I get that there is a standard hand position and know what it is, but I like to have the option if needed. After a couple arm surgeries I’ve got a grip like a wet paper towel (no more motorcycle riding, track days, or shooting range for me!) so I need to shift my…

Jumping to whatever they think absolves them of guilt and secures a win so... yeah kinda.

I was half hoping it was due to that stupid steering yoke. You just can’t shift hands to reposition your grip, that’s really uncomfortable.

Since it’s texas, and they’ve confirmed that rolling coal on someone is classified as assault - doesn’t that mean you can shoot them if they roll coal on you?

I think the dodge razor was supposed to be a miata style lightweight rear drive with an srt4 power plant.

I forget that some people get hung up on the show and not the go.

Can’t you just... not use the back ones?

There are a bunch of tells (cluster of antennas on the rear top, all-number license plates (in CA), the steel wheels with chrome caps) but silhouette recognition was always the best. It’s hard now.

Exactly! There are so many possible names, but they wanted to kick the hornets nest by calling it mustang. I think what they were really doing is ripping the bandaid off quickly so the sting of the new generation of “mustangs” being lame electric SUV’s is done and over with, then when electric yawnwagons are the only…

If they’d called it anything but a mustang I’d kinda dig it, but they slap the nameplate and the horse on a porky SUV and act surprised that people take umbrage with it :|
