Have you considered a similar aged 4Runner in the higher trim levels? Back in august i bought a 160k mile 2010 4runner for a work/winter vehicle. It’s base trim level but still a pleasant place to be.

Depends on the car. I bought a 160k mile 4runner for a winter/work car and have no qualms about it. The amount of examples significantly beyond 200k gives me confidence. 

I mean, it probably wasn’t a straight up payment. But this was definitely a product of some intense lobbying more than anything else.

At least in the modern era, yes. I’m pretty sure in the 60's you could get almost any engine a company made in any of their cars.

this is by far and away the best job the crew has ever done in responding. But there also really isn’t anything else out there that fits the description. Also, it’s a little curious that most ya’ll used press photos instead of actual photos of your recommendations. This winds up being another exercise in how expensive…

I can’t remember where I read this, but I thought the conception of this whole debacle was that Boeing hadn’t decided if they were doing a clean sheet design or just evolving the 737 to fit bigger pass-through engines, but either United or American placed an order for the evolved 737 anyway, forcing their hand.

Damn right. Anyone who has chickens knows you never have to throw food out once you have them. 

Agreed, although, I’d argue Hydrogen would makes sense as a replacement for diesel applications. At a certain point generating electrical energy on location is more economical than just lugging it around you all the time.

And even if you stuffed enough batteries in to match the ICE power specs, it would be so heavy it would take chunks out of the tow rating.

1st: this is gonna be interesting because in a sane world, this should stabilize their stock price. One thing that I think has been glossed in all the Tesla stock mania is that when you aren’t in the S&P, you are more vulnerable to speculative individuals and small investment firms. Being in the S&P balances things…

Yeah, can confirm as a 25 year old who grew up in the Chicago suburbs. Despite all my friends and I living in one of the nearest suburbs, (30 minute train ride from downtown) everyone was scrambling to move to the city neighborhoods as soon as they had steady income post-college. Even the ones like me who work in the…

That, or at the least it would give independent shops another simple service to provide. But general human aversion to change can really be a pain in the fanny.

Yeah, them repeating a round 2 hours was pretty suspect. I’d safely some it was at least 2h 10m.

Can you knock this shit off? Some of us have inflammatory narratives to propagate!

It’s relatively easy, but the ones that don’t already do it are going to be very mad and put up a huge fight.

Honda came out with the Insight 21 years ago and GM had the EV1 24 years ago so they both have 20+ years experience with batteries & electric motors with much greater resources so at the least they should be able to match Tesla’s base offerings, a company that didn’t even exist when those vehicles were introduced.

Kinda hilarious that a lot of it was the Big 3's doing, and Detroit wound up being the only place to have the people mover, outside of airports and theme parks.

Right, the one they show on a jobsite is a bit of stretch. 120 ain’t gonna cut it on the commercial construction level. Maybe it’d work in local residential applications if they can afford it.

You’re missing the point here. You are talking exclusively about the tech in cars that are on the market, not what is in development. The jump between L2, L3, and L4 is so tremendous, it’s hard to use success at one type of system as an indicator for an success on another. All that data is only as good as the people…
