what makes the Jeep Wrangler so successful is that it is in all respect a capable off-road car you can drive everyday. They are reliable and endlessly modifiable and can be had new for $30,000. Now if the new defender can follow this recipe then they will be successful in the states. If however this is slightly bigger…

Held is another brand worth looking into. They make nice gloves and have some options for ya.

Yippee, they shot down an RC plane. Some 12 year-old is going to be mad.

He pretty much stated that he basically went 70 mph and had a couple breaks and even a nap thrown in there.

The thing is, they get great gas mileage for an AWD car. my Impeza gets 37mpg with AWD. Who else does this at the price point of $21K

The aerodynamic engineer in me just had a massive heart attack.

You could, it just requires about $81 million in taxes.

Will it be offered online without a cable subscription? If so, great! If not, then meh.

Yeah... seems to me like if it was AWD they would have made the back end stick a bit better around corners.

I wonder if someone could build an OBD2 emulator that they could leave at home with the Progressive device connected. It could tell the device what a great/safe driver you are without actually moving. Now I'm picturing a basement filled with dongles connected to a computer feeding BS data to Progressive, for a…

The hatch is dead. :( Long live the hatch!
