I’m not even a huge porsche fan and I need a new pair of pants ASAP.

The off-the-line torque is surprisingly hilarious in that car. We always lit tires up moving them around the lot or taking them for dealer trades.

We did the math last year on the LEAF S after all incentives, and it was like $12k. Things might have changed but the Chery may not be that much cheaper than a LEAF.

Um, no. CVT’s are worse in every possible measurable way. The current 8+ speed transmissions don’t shift sequentially through all available gears, they skip gears when it needs to. The cvt has no other choice but to go through it’s full range to get to where it needs to be. CVT’s also have no other option but to

One of our pugs in our ‘63 Midget, just chillin.

Funny enough, Nissan is incredibly anti-union here in the US. But their inspectors seem to not give a flying fffffff

Nissan is hilariously bad. Their paint quality has to be some of the worst in the industry as well. I’m talking new cars with paint flaking off when techs are trying to wash them for delivery. Probably every other new body style Titan we received had some sort of major cosmetic and mechanical defect.

They’re really not bad in the Maxima and actually I’m not upset about the one in my wife’s juke. I hate the Rogue’s and the Altima’s transmissions though. The real issue I have with it is the lack of durability with them. You get any real heat introduced into the system, the fluid starts to bubble, the metal belt

Seriously. Stop trying to make CVT’s happen! When I worked at Nissan (in Colorado, at a store at the base of the mountains) I saw customer after customer with their Rogues in service because they blew their CVT’s up running up and down the hills.

Yes, Rhino is back for now, and they are doing Gobi as a replacement to Mojave Sand. Both are great, a buddy of mine bought a Gobi Willy’s a little while back and loves it.

The Willy’s Wheeler is probably my favorite of the special editions (besides the off-road beast that is the Rubicon Recon). But here in Colorado at least, every other Wrangler seems to be white on white on white with black wheels and a lightbar. It looks good, but everyone has it. I personally like the Winter Edition

They do Rhino now, which I like quite a bit.

Can’t wait to pick one of these up in 8-10 years and off-road it. After adding bumpers with better approach and departure angles....

I love driving the current JK manual. It’s very “truck-y”. Also, 1 out of 3 wranglers anymore seem to be white, with white matching fenders and hardtop, and black wheels. Please don’t be basic! Get one in Firecracker Red or Xtreme Purple, for the love of everything.

I won’t consider Harley simply because they use mostly old technology shoved into old, heavy bikes. The exhaust note isn’t “cool” either, it’s just irritating going “potato potato potato”. They are built simply for looks, which makes them non-competitive because other manufacturers make prettier, better performing

OH MY GOD WHY DID NOBODY SUGGEST A VOLVO POLESTAR. Buy a new one for $60k and remove polestar badges. It’s fast, and because it’s a Volvo, nobody will have the slightest clue except the most hardcore car nerds.

The T5 on the S90 isn’t the most common engine option for a reason. Adding that supercharger when you go the the T6 really smoothes it out.

The Rubicon Recon is magnificent. But mostly driven by dentists or their wives on-road, unfortunately. Definitely only needed a 2" lift and 35's to be about as capable as you would ever need an off roader to really be.

Ahem...

When I worked at Nissan, the best we could do was hope to god we got allocated a car that was close or find one at another dealership. I could occasionally build out NV van orders but that wasn’t always reliable either.
