Depends on the year. That was definitely an issue on earlier ones. Later models got a redesigned water pump; I’m not sure which year they changed it exactly. It’s hard to say if the newer ones are definitely more reliable or not, since most aren’t old enough to run into problems yet.

Two months ago I picked up a 14k mile, one year old 2018 model...awd ecoboost and every other option except the tow package...for ~30k. With the way their value seems to crater in just a couple years off the lot, it probably wouldn’t take much more than 20k to get a three year old one here.

Mine definitely has DRLs. Decided to look into it a little bit before I posted though and...apparently US models come with the DRLs deactivated (but can be turned on if you ask a dealer), Canadian models (mine came across the border where I bought it in update NY) come with them turned on? That seems utterly

The Flex is a bit better than that. With all seats up you still have more than 20 cubic feet behind it; that’s as much as your average mid-full size car. The squared off rear end and the well below the rear seats give it a fair bit more room back there than most three row vehicles.

That’s still the case, though it’s /much/ more tolerable with Sync 3.  Still drives me crazy that I have to change pages on the touchscreen to turn my set heaters on, but as that’s probably my single biggest issue with the car...I can’t really complain too much.

As one of those owners, I can certainly confirm the satisfaction part. It is the /best/ road trip car you can buy. There’s nothing I could possibly need mine to do that it won’t do, and better than almost anything on the road (except possibly go a little easier on the fuel budget, but...nothing’s perfect). As someone

I really want to agree that they should have updated it, but people still don’t want to buy it, and an updated version likely wouldn’t sell much better if any at all. In a perfect world there’d always be a modern version of the Flex, but it just doesn’t make business sense for them to either keep trying to sell it

Almost definitely a good thing.  Maybe this one won’t need a massive community patch just to be playable.

That was my thought too...and I have a Flex, so...

They’re not capable of doing better, so this is what they settle for, and tell themselves it matters.

They’ve long since figured out that they’ll never do anything positive for the world, so they’ve conditioned themselves to think that having SOME effect on people around them is better than nothing.

So far.  Switch and PS4 versions are coming.

It’s mostly made by a single developer, and he’s said he can’t personally handle VR.  Since he can’t use it, he doesn’t feel that he could make it work well.

Power management.  Dump power into your engines and you can get away from almost any fight.

This is, basically, Privateer III. None of the reviews I’ve seen yet really attempt to go into exactly how much it really is a spiritual sequel. “The tone feels like-” doesn’t come close; everything down to the designs of the stations, the guilds, the ship equipment, and the used-ship salesman speeches are Privateer

Started this last night and it’s all I can think about now.  Time is crawling by while I wait to get out of work and get back into it.  I should have taken the day off...

I was going to be picking this up no matter what the reviews looked like; it’s Remedy and that’s all I need to know. Alan Wake is one of my all time favorites, Quantum Break was fantastic too. Still, it’s great to see so many good reviews coming in; I can’t wait to dive into this one.

Had a 240sx with the same problem, ended up being related to a bad vacuum leak caused by the previous owner’s half-assed attempt at an EGR delete.

It’s been a long time since I had a bad rental, really; mostly because the Alamo I rent from lets me choose my car. Going way back though...a completely thrashed rental spec 2000-ish Dodge Neon. I never knew a car that small could roll so much in a turn; I don’t know if they were all that way, or if the suspension was

It’s not a new battery, or at least not just. It’s a more efficient NVIDIA chipset that uses less power.
