Not for nothing either but I see 15+ year old F150's every day, but a gen 1 Tundra still on the road is way less common even adjusting for the smaller sales figures of the Tundra at the time.

The consumer pickup market in general just confuses me. $50k is a ton of money for something that, yes, it will probably run forever and be great for around the house chores...but a Highlander or even a Rav4 hybrid + a utility trailer can do that too and save major cash doing so, rides nicer, is easier to park, and

You’re right about that. They stopped looking elegant (from the outside) after the C5 was phased out. The interiors...well I know what everyone else thinks of them. I’m weird and kind of loved the C5's interior styling. The materials were shit but the layout was familiar and basic to me.

Fifty grand+ after taxes for a 10 year old platform truck without even heated seats is an awfully hard sell. Toyota doesn’t seem to play the rebate game like the domestic brands do either, so no help there. It’ll last forever, yes, but it’ll cost you now upfront and as you own it with that horrific fuel economy.

What other mid engined, pushrod V8 powered vehicle has there been other than the Detomaso Pantera? GM has done wonders with the old small block for the last 60 years (generally), it’s worth giving them the benefit of the doubt.

I’m in my mid 20's and drive an Impala, but everyone else in my company (all 45+ years old, ~30 coworkers) drives a medium-large sedan except for 2 people who have crossovers and 3+ kids. We have to do lots and lots of travel, so it might be a generational/fuel mileage thing.

If you didn’t waste $100 a year on unnecessarily premium gas on your Dodge, maybe you could afford to get the wheel well rust repaired.

Leave it to a guy with an SS icon to be corrected by a Mopar guy on Ram stuff.

91 is 10-20 cents more than 89 and isn’t necessary.

Hemis require 89

Just pop it in the oven on self-clean. It’s telling you right there that it’ll clean itself!

Brenthon sounds like the name of a car “manufacturer” in the Burnout games or a GTA farm vehicle

Fortunately for us, looks like the Model 3's interior, and maybe even the exterior, is both!

minimalism, brooooooo

Had to change a battery on a 98 Monte Carlo Z34 in a 15 degree snowstorm one night. Changing the battery on a W-body is a big enough pain in the ass, but with the added fun of below freezing temperatures and 15 years of New England weight reduction, I learned just how quickly human blood can freeze to GM rustasteel.

I need some help from people that know Uber better than I do.

Is Wikipedia speaking the truth when it says the XC40 is not made in Sweden or China, but Belgium?

Fucking preach. The damn things are in taxis now too. I got forced to go to NYC last week unexpectedly for work and had to take taxis everywhere. The little yellow & green fuckers have TAXI TV in them now. The friggin touch screens in them didn’t work until it was time to select cash or credit, conveniently, and I was

Follow all FAA regulations and don’t go above the flight ceiling and crash it into a Blackhawk like that chucklefuck on Staten Island did a few weeks back. Do it by the book or just watch drone racing on The Ocho with the rest of us.

The Stumpjumper is infinitely more fun than the turbo, sorry.
