I think the Miata NC is the most refined looking. Like a mini Jaaaag.

I don’t know why Hyundai haven’t brought the Staria to the US. They have them in Australia amongst other places -

I think that would be good, but VW aren’t exactly flush with cash (relatively) so I expect it will launch with 300 mile range, then v2.0 might have more.

The hype for this has been so long, and it’s still likely two years away from actually getting one. Hard to think something else won’t come along and tempt buyers. But there aren’t many genuine comparable cars.

The hoops to jump through to get that iphone ‘deal’ are horrendous.

I agree, but compared to all the other ones it’s a drop in the polluted ocean. Once the data is in and the savings are clear we might hopefully see a big take up on this. I’ve seen this wind turbines used on a small scale - I’m not an engineer so I don’t know if they’d scale up

Every little helps I suppose.

CORRECT

Any Land Rover product beats everyone else combined.

Same people that need to be reminded not to iron their clothes when wearing them.

Understood. The comment was “pick-ups aren’t safe”. This was disproving that.

Jesus. That’s a total nightmare. The $50 is almost irrelevant that sounds like hours of phone calls and email.

Agreed. But I think anything beyond a basic location tracker to prevent theft/disappearance is unreasonable.

I rented a Boxster on Turo and I’d had it 15 minutes and the owner rang me telling me he’d noted I’d broken the speed limit several times and I should keep the car under the speed limit where possible (I’d gone from LAX to the 405 and hadn’t gone over 40mph). I told him I’d return the car as this was unreasonable. He…

Ah - not intentional, wasn’t trying to make a point other than they are safe.

It’s for the *Content*

I mean it did just get washed pretty thoroughly...

Rollover score is the weak factor it would appear on this type of vehicle.

How does it compare to other vehicles at the time? If they’re all within an acceptable tolerance I don’t see an issue (legally). If it was known to be a terrible weak spot compared to e.g. Chevy then there’s a case to be heard.
