Its still on the 2013 civic platform which never saw the 1.5l turbo. 

I use my trifold all the time and if i ever have something that pokes out just fold it up. Have used it folded up for moving washers and Dryers (at the same time), Tires, lumber, furniture, lawnmowers, you name it. I have only ever had to take it off a hand full of times to get couches and longer stuff in. And if I do…

Funny how it was just rebranding of a 360 cu in. A buddy’s mom bought one in the bright red like below when we were in middle school. It was the coolest thing to ride in as we just had a Odyssey

Yep very true, work in cbus and a coworker has a clean 2001 Durango 5.2L v8. Been in his family since new. Some inner fender rust but not affecting the paint

Plastic bumpers and clading. Then rusting on it

Agreed, It was such a let down from the first gen that looked really good for its time and to a point still does today.

Great Article and over the weekend I basically didn’t follow any of the myths as I bought a GX470.

But that tail light screams Tundra. Though the more I look at it, it keeps reminding me the new F-150. And the flares are just around the wheel wheel unlike the Tundra’s. Plus the angle of the top of the bed is fairly flat unlike the rounded image of the Tundra

Let it be forgotten, VQ sound like crap and its a Bro/Vape car. Also their interior is on par/slightly above Acura, plastic is every where. Reliability is ok not J35/J37 or Lexus but way better than anything out of Germany.

Yeah but this is also why there are still a number of 10+ year old tractors on the road. Trailers them selves normally arent over 10 years old as most shipping locations will not load a 10 year or older trailer.

As some one who has a friend who’s in trucking, the most unreliable part of new trucks is the emission control systems. So to skip the emissions they use engines pre 2008 so they dont have to use DEF. A few will go back even further to get away from an EGR.

Hopefully the haybales keep it from attacking any thing else, like bystanders

Can we just get a league of unrestricted cars? Other than the safety of the drive nothing is off limits.

She has also lost her relationship with a Dispensary.

Well a Honda owner might just have lol. And yeah I agree, it looks sharp but the almost Limo tint is a bit much

FUUUUCK, I always for get about the first gen. They look so identical to the RL that ran until 04 that i assume its an first gen RL

Other than the maybe headlights (doubtful but hard to tell) and tinted windows what isnt OEM? Color nose beak, was a factory and dealer option, and body kit? OEM. The tailpiece is as well but I think I made my point.

If I wanted a razor and a car I could buy one. But if i wanted something that isn’t beige to begin with or has a manual. I’d buy a Mazda 6 or Accord 2.0T.

3rd gen Acura TL SH-AWD. Great, fun to drive, and reliable car. It checks all the boxes as it can also be had with a manual. I do agree you have to get over the nose beak but its a damn good car underneath and will have a bit more refinement than a Subaru or a 14 year old VW

The Tariffs on foreign cars is bad for the US consumer. Just take a look of you look at the rise of imports in the 70s and its dominance in the 80s and 90s. It was due to the Big 3 taking it easy and pumping out utter shit because no one could challenge them. With Tariffs, I feel the big 3 will try to get away with…
