I like what you did with the C pillar, makes the profile look cleaner. I’ve always wanted to be an automotive designer and the one thing I can never figure out is why they compromise design on the lower cost vehicles. I know the bean counters/crash regs play a big role but that doesn’t excuse them for crappy design.

As someone who is not the target audience for this car and stops caring when a vehicle weight begins with a “3" I feel like my opinion is valuable and useful here.

Those wheels need to be an inch larger.

meh... over here in europeland every car/van is apparently car/van of the year or best in class..... its completely meaningless... (for that matter every book is a new york times bestseller... hows that work? )

I used to have a co-worker who I said nothing but Top Gun quotes to in a 2 month period. That guy eventually went to work for Frontier Communications and then got laid off.

Don’t forget the VTOL configuration.

The Warthog is armed with a seven-barrel GAU-8 Avenger cannon

One more aspect, which you don’t hear brought up enough because it tends to sound too dire: When a Warthog is lost, you lose a relatively cheap, essentially single-purpose piece of equipment. When you lose an F-15, F-18, or F-35 in a CAS role, you lose a LOT more money and a LOT broader capability. There is still a

It’s just a measurement for comparison now. Kind of like horsepower. Last I checked I didn’t see 485 stallions under my hood.

0-60 is a stupid, meaningless measurement that has absolutely NO RELEVANCE AT ALL in the 21st century! There, I said it. Tom McCahill, considered by most of us to be the father of the magazine road test invented it in the very early 50s when he was testing cars for Popular Science and Mechanix Illustrated. The

Right. Have you priced a new Suburban recently? Do you realize many of your neighbors are driving Suburbans that cost north of $70,000? (!!!!)

I can’t imagine that anyone who has lost a child would not find this hurtful. I have 3 boys, I don’t even want to imagine what that would be like.

So in a commercial featuring a magic wish-granting man and a father who trades away his kid’s life what really, truly, breaks the suspension of goddamn disbelief is the transmission availability on a particular model?

Can I get the two minutes back that I spent watching this? To dark, not that funny and for a car I’m not that into...

Auto insurance guy here. Turo should not and would not be involved in the valuation process outside of possibly verifying the value. The adjuster will assess the car “conservatively” and will view the terms of the policy to see if coverage is in place.

They were renting it for $350 a day (for 100 miles) or $2327.50 a week for 750 miles. If you are using the car as an investment, (and didn’t realize the insurance would eff you) this could be a great investment.

An $80,000 loan, 5 years at 3% is $1437 a month. You only have to rent it out a few days a month to have

You could go the Ebay route, but keep in mind, the Police Package cars that are formally dept owned are used and abused. Have you tried ordering one? I bet a Ford Dealership with one on the lot would sell you one, most depts have gone to the Ford Explorer completely ignoring the Taurus/Interceptors. Nice screen

haha, I’ll break down and get to it. Seems more complicated getting help than actually just doing it.

When I first saw the text I thought you were accusing me... to which the answer would be yes. But that looks fresh. Needs more window and less pillar.
