The trunk is actually huge. In great Volvo 240 tradition, it’s pretty shallow but goes way, way back. On less-than-perfect roads it’s actually super smooth and easy, not jiggly at all, but I would definitely opt for something smaller than the 20" wheels my tester car had. I don’t have a kid just yet, so I can’t say…

No auto dealer would benefit from a price war, so in that regard, they operate more like cartels. They all have their own territories and they often share inventories.

LOL okay dude.

Stripes of Glory Down Under. Perfect!

Driving blows. There, I said it. I used to love it, now I hate it. Too many stop lights, too many idiots. It’s nothing but a frustration. No one is heading down twisty mountain roads on their way to work every day. I’m all for self-driving cars.

It’s for the same reason as why they don’t say how much was taken during a bank robbery. So that no one knows it was a lot of money, and they want to do the same. If someone else gets hurt they will ask what they and their legal counsel come up with, not what this guy got. Protecting your business from…

They are popular especially in convertible form, but they are usually V6 base models. Although these days since that has 300hp it can get you in trouble.

I thought all Cherokees were excluded from NPOCP to save David Tracy’s wallet and overfilled driveway.

All I gotta say is Justin be safe.

This is why I don’t bitch about cars unless they are close to my tax bracket affordability.

They threw a torque converter in the S4; I’d take a manual over it regardless of performance. DCT > Manual > Torque Converter.

Unpopular opinion: shoeys are absurd and gross. That needs to diaf along with the Indy 500 milk chug.

That, unfortunately, does make the most business sense. Let’s be honest, most of the rich dudes who can afford these, ain’t interested in shifting manually. However, a manual trans could have been the thing that separates the Vette from those it seeks to compete against. That could’ve been the thing that convinces the…

I remember reading a car-mag review of the new Audi A3 back in the mid 2000's, that was the first time I had seen a reasonably priced car that had an automatic transmission (VW’s DSG) do a faster quarter-mile time than their manual. It was at that point that I knew the manual was dead.

Why don’t they split the series into two races? Can still use the same venue, just different days.

I have been watching Volt’s for awhile. Would love to own one, but I only commute 2x a week and it doesn’t fit in our needs to replace a primary vehicle so it would be an extra car.

Its still relevant. I can stop anywhere (including the side of the road if need be) for a bathroom break. If I need food, I can go through the drive through and keep going. If i need a charging station, even a supercharger, I’m going to be in one place for 30+ minutes. And while my car is charging, I am going to be on…

I feel as if FCA is like three steps away from falling into a pit.

A BMW badge?

CP. There are cheaper A310s without the ruinous bodykit.
