In and out in 1 hour? That’s fantastic.

That’s exactly what he did last year

Pretty much every Toyota Hybrid looks like that under the hood.

I suspect a hypothetical emergency solar charging solution would be incredibly slow to charge and/or very bulky. The current Wrangler 4xe has a 17kWh battery which can deliver up to 22 miles of range (0.77kWh per mile). You’d need a pretty significant panel and several hours or even days of sunlight to regain any

Bimmer = BMW with 4 wheels

This car definitely has a presence that can’t be conveyed in pictures. It’s usually in my list of Lottery Cars as a road trip car or Sunday cruising machine.

Porsche ALSO continues to build progressively better versions of their sports cars.  If Porsche stopped building “trucks”, they would cease to exist. Sports cars alone aren’t enough to sustain business.

I don’t know about that. To me, one basic question is: How much is authenticity worth, and is it worth more than all the downsides that may come with it? Deliberately or not, that’s the bet that Trump made with Twitter. People LOVED the direct access they got with his multiple, unfiltered daily tweets. Did he dig many

Any time someone says Car X is “better than” Car Y, they usually mean it is superior in 1 or 2 ways and worse in 10 other ways.

The e-CVT Power Split transmission used in the Prius and other Toyota hybrids is a brilliant piece of automotive engineering. It’s amazing how much work it does in such a small package, with practically zero moving parts.

Nobody ever bought a Ferrari because it was the best performance value available.

The name of the business in the background is fitting.

Routine Maintenance means something completely different to the average driver than it means to a BMW Masochist Enthusiast.

Price is high. IMO the rarity of the manual still does not warrant such a high price.

They are probably getting paid to look the other way.

No. Frequent postcards sounds like a simple and effective strategy.

This is not a new recall. It says that “90k BMWs that have been part of ongoing airbag recalls since at least 2016 still haven’t had a free repair performed at a dealership.”

Base MSRP, minus destination

VW still calls it the Golf GTI here in the states.

I realize the XM generates clicks, but it is absolutely not a redesign.
