I’m astonished they’re taking those wheels to production. It’s an ugly, no, really ugly Suburban with awkward looking seats, especially the blocky second row. Genuinely looks like the interior came out of the 80s. Try as they might, Ford can’t match GM when it comes to full size SUVs and probably never will. Diesel…

The answer to the question: “How much money can Ford get gullible people to spend on a dolled-up truck?” Corollary: “How many gullible customers can Ford steal from Cadillac?”

The grill is a tiny Millennium Falcon jumping to hyperspace!

Looks like a Range Rover mated with BB-8

And in the US:

It seems like a good time to buy the rights to the Canyonero. I’d produce something like that, but less reliable. I’m saying I’m FCA.

There are two major factors driving the crazy-quilt path of electric vehicles and hybrids in general, one internal, one external:

Neutral: Let’s say you’re the head of a major carmaker (congrats!) would you be doubling down on EV development now, or staying true to what works with traditional crossovers?

What seems to totally escape VW’s grasp is yes, they were the people’s car, mass produced, but here there was much more to it than that. Here in the US they were the quirky choice that said something about its owner, someone who thought differently, was more practical, more thoughtful, and didn’t mind standing out a…

Phaeton.

Conspiracy theory: the driver of the MKIV Golf (which appears at 0:14 and 1:06; coincidence? I think not!) was fed up with its vomit-inducing unreliability and thus had been eyeing the near-perfect, California-weather Civic in the same neighborhood. The Golf driver tails the family everywhere and even figures out that…

You might want to go to a different site if you’re scared of “the f word”

Is this the fucking Wall Street Journal?

This is a terrible ad. They do a great job of getting you to care about the Civic, and a terrible job of getting you to care about the vehicle they are actually trying to sell. They establish an emotional connection, and then bring in a usurper. They don’t tell us why it’s better, or even that it’s better.

Plot twist. The riced out Honda she loses her V card in was her parents.

She’s far from the only writer around these parts who does this.

They can afford to buy a new CR-V, which they would pay pretty close to the full price for because that EF is worthless on trade-in no matter how clean it is, but they can’t afford to own two cars? Two Honda’s no less? Which means maintence costs are pretty much 0? I mean, that looked like a two car driveway to me.…

Honda has small SUVs sitting on the lots and not moving so they’re targeting current Honda owners to trade in their small Honda cars for roomier Honda SUVs. Who cares that it’s beige? This isn’t a family that builds memories with its cars anyways.

Couldn’t they have at the very least havegot another bright red CR-V?
