The difference between Tribeca and Ascent would be cabin dimension, I think.

We also have a Portly Cat!

Apple Carplay? But that means new Subaru owners will not get the pleasure of spending hours trying to understand the PTY/CAT button on the audio system!

That’s not its nose. That is its lips. Note angry eyes and pursed mouth.

Swoopy! Personally I like cars that are ugly and weird but Nissan has that covered. This is a classy design that should age well.

I want this. Looking for a replacement for my aging Subaru Outback, a car that I love but that is facing its expensive shop time years. And I love Buicks, for family reasons and because they are heavily padded luxo-mobiles.

I miss my TDI, but diesel exhaust has been classified as a Class 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organization. Let’s not miss it too, too much. It will be a while before electrification is everywhere, but in the meantime there’s the ethanol-blended dino juice to keep the internal combustion combusting.

They also have a 10 year warranty. I don’t wish them ill, and if the Outlander is a good car, great. But what is their halo car? What are they known for? Mazda is “zoom zoom,” Chevy is Americana (and rental fleets), Subaru is for bad weather and/or lesbians with dogs (not a diss, that is why we bought…

I see what you did there

Hard to disagree with your choice and reasoning (although I cringe at jibes taken at Buicks, for family/emotional reasons), but I’ll throw in another name: Mitsubishi.

I agree, but the Forester is uggles. My wife and I love our Outback, but it is aging (leaking, getting a little busted) and we are thinking of shopping for a new one. I can tell you that the Forester is too uggles - I appreciate it but there is a whiff of AMC Pacer and not in a good way.

What a Rush!

2011 Golf TDI. Had good memories of our old Jetta wagon TDI, which had great power, great sight lines, and unexpected lux, so when the need arose for a secondary vehicle to supplement the trusty Outback, I was happy to return to VW, getting what I thought was a reasonable deal on a lightly used Golf.

Do you mean future *President* Dwayne The Rock Johnson?

I thought that Nissan stood for wackadoo styling. The cargo van is remarkably snouty. The Juke looks like a frog on a skateboard. The Quest minivan is covered with metallic geegaws that give it a faintly Victorian architectural effect, like the Cygnus in The Black Hole. The Murano was one of the first cars to embrace…

Musk could be reading this and thinking, “Exosuits...”

If cost is no object, I would want to get a Mad Max version with 35 inch tires, a Beetle welded on top as a turret, and spikes to repel boarders.

Cue the Ramones!

I like BMWs, but I wouldn’t want to be associated with the people that drive them.

Love the Enclave. It is like a comfortably squishy, bolstered settee from an English mansion, that you can drive.
