Great, a big screen that still only has a single row of allowed apps at the bottom. Looks like the new screen doesn’t offer any more capability, just more real estate for maps and play lists. I’ve been using Uconnect for a couple years now and it is faaaaar less capable than even the cheapest android phone or tablet.

Man, the center stack in the interior looks like it’s from 2001. When are they going to up their game and get rid of that Sony branding shit?

In the past, the Explorer was the Jeep GC competitor. Then Ford gave it a third row and made it too huge. Edge is 188" long, GC is 191", Explorer is 198".

Agree, been saying it for years. I’d love to have an Msport X3 or SQ5, but just can’t swing the mid 60k cost with the good options. Jeep has done it, but the SRT is even more pricey than the Germans. If Ford made a fast, sporty mid size SUV (but not the edge...) I’d trade in my Grand Cherokee tomorrow.

And my supercharged 98 Cobra that didn’t get much street time during that storm.

DC Blizzard back in 2010. It was a blast driving around usually packed Northern VA with nobody else on the roads.

I dont understand what problems everyone has with the recent BMW styling. A friend of mine has a 340i and absolutely loves it, even with the auto. I’d be all over one if my wife would let go of her Accord.

My old Cobra. 18x9/10 BBS RKs are highly coveted by the Mustang community.

At this point, probably nothing. Now that I have my own house, I have a 65" 4K TV with more than decent surround sound, Blu-Ray, and Roku. I can just wait to see any movie in the comfort of my own home with cheap food/booze, and my dog laying on my lap.

I’ve been to two movies in the last week. First, my wife’s boss

You’re honestly comparing strong dudes riding single speed steel bikes over mountains on dirt roads carrying their own spare tubes and tires to insanely trained athletes riding modern carbon 22 speed bikes with doctors and full replacement wheels and bikes hanging off team cars following them every step of the way. So

That commercial ruined me forever. Now all I see are faces in steering wheels, even my own Grand Cherokee.

Thank the auto gods for this blessing! I can finally recommend a Cherokee for my mom’s next vehicle. Her friend bought an ugly-face Cherokee and she liked it, but I would not allow her to get one with that hideous front end. It looks soooooo much better now.

I’d argue that people wouldn’t have to tailgate if drivers would pay the f*#% attention and get out of the fast lane.

Also, people on cell phones are 1000x worse than tailgaters when it comes to not being able to react quick enough to sudden speed drops.

Yup, we were heading north on Rt 5 out of SoMD.

We are just south of Joint Base Andrews and recently saw a C5 Galaxy in the air just after takeoff. That thing is so big, it looked like it was just hanging in the air about 500 feet up. Unreal that it’s able to get off the ground.

I know they’ve improved it quite a bit since the one I had, but go sit in a Golf R with it’s new digital gauge cluster and tell me it doesn’t look more upscale.
But you are right, it’s really about the old, problematic engine. And for me, the fact that they won’t build a hatchback.

I’d agree with everything but the Golf R. You can get one of those for high 30s and it has all the luxury and safety features as my $52k Jeep. The fact that Subaru wants to charge 10k more for a super old engine and spartan interior with zero modern amenities? Subaru has completely jumped the shark, and that comes

I’m going through something similar right now. My mom has a 2008 E90 335i with the sport package and a manual. She’s owned it since new and just turned over 59k miles. She also has written down every single bit of maintenance she’s done in that time period and has followed the BMW recommendations to a T.

I was

If I remember correctly, he said 250 thousand pounds. Which is actually $333k.

Must be nice to get a doorbell ring or a knock. We don’t get alerted anymore when we get packages. Items sit on our porch, ripe for the stealing unless we check every once in a while. I almost ran over a couple boxes last week because they left them in front of my garage door at 730am.
