This article got me excited to buy one of these as my son is looking for his first car and I would like it to be something fun to drive (well, not boring) and more or less done depreciating. Then I remembered what company built this and made it a hard pass. I owned this era Durango and it was a massive pile of…

Uber paid its top five executives $143 million in total compensation last year.

“what do we call Toyota’s ever-deepening ties with Mazda?”  My guess is eventually it will be called Toyota.

My statement was meant to apply to all auto makers not just Hyundai. It was more of a “they show us something fantastic in a concept then use the same playskool plastic interiors on production.”

They show us this:

Hello, and thanks for coming to our seminar on time share investing...

Investors are the guys who put up money pre IPO.  The people who bought after the IPO are called suckers.

So the companies are ripping off drivers and still losing a metric shit ton of cash.  It seems nobody is making any money in this scheme except the investors and executives, ohhhhhhhhhh.

“the company’s talk about being a force for good in the world.” I can’t believe how often I hear this phrase (or market disrupter) in the valley.  How the fuck is selling solar panels equate to being a force for good?  Stop talking about being the nice guy leaders (Brin and Schmidt from Google seem to be pretty…

I do love this. My work used to have a vendor called “Bay Internet” that was actually a sheetmetal shop. Someone from my work would call them up just about every day asking for help with our email just to screw with them. Ironically, they went out of business because the owner leveraged everything in 1999 to put in…

“you could make a Zamboni road legal in Sweden if you add blinkers and a horn”  That sounds like Xanadu.

When we bought our Cmax I sat in a Taurus and was shocked how something so big could feel so small and cramped.

The DB-9 is getting seriously cheap. This one sold on BAT for $37,000. Not a manual, but it does have the V12. My dream would be attainable if it wasn’t for my meddling kids. 

“bloated on the outside, cramped inside, not particularly nice to drive”

Are you talking about yourself? Haha, just kidding.  I didn’t intend for my initial reply to sound so snarky.  You do have to admit what she is looking for is pretty tough to find, mainly the size of a RAV4 with more scoot. Just about everything mentioned here is larger.

Just buy this instead and don’t worry quite as much about repairs (but still worry).

Tom, I think you put up the wrong image for the E63, here is the correct one.

How’s this? She’s asking for an extremely specific car that has not been built ever.  A smaller version of a RAV4 with more power with AWD under $25,000.  Good luck.

Are we just going to ignore the helicopter on the overpass in the title pic?

“build a much more expensive car, that is far less safe and doesn’t work as well”  Huh?  How does emissions and safety relate?  Is the higher compression smaller engine some how attached to the crumple zones and airbags?  And, why would he care if the car companies used a more strict set of rules than the fed…
