Then at least add a retainer clip or something, during the assembly process.

I also see notes from the prior generation of Range Rover in the overall shape.

These are decent - we bought the 4 pack on Prime day.

It’s all branding - look at how many Jeep vehicles have “Trail Rated” badges on them, or trucks that say “Off-Road on the bedside” with 20" wheels.

They still do - the trunk emblem says “GT” on the V8s, and is just the horse with 3 bars on the lower models.  Also, they say 5.0 on the side, whereas the others just have the horse again.

Or go to Costco, where they are $269 regular price for a pair...

Crosstrek is a TON of car for the money, especially if you want a wagon with ground clearance. We bought one for my grandmother a few years ago - it was her favorite of all ~8ish vehicles she test drove, and the cheapest to boot.

*Ford kills all cars in US except for most performance-oriented models (Mustang, GT), doubles down on Ecoboost HO by expanding availability to the top non-Raptor F150 trims, announces new off-road performance vehicle (Bronco)*

I’m going to go with a Mustang GT.  Plenty of power, fun, reliable (family member has an ‘05 with ~160k miles on it / has had no issues).  Also holds value well, auto is faster than manual.

FCA reliability / build quality.  Also, Durango.

Similar incident... I was driving with the windows down at about 50mph, and a huge yellow jacket (wasp) got sucked into the car, and hit me in the chest.  It plopped on my lap (crotch), then began trying to sting me.  Thankfully nobody was behind me, so I stopped, opened the door, and flicked it out.

I’m right there with you. I bet companies like AEV/others will come out with some type of crazy bed cap to keep cargo dry / be a truck when you need it to.

The 4-door is easier to live with every day, the 2-door is the better fun/weekend/toy car. Everything is easier/lighter on the 2 door when it comes to roof removal, but you can fit 2 friends AND gear into a 4-door.

LOL this is a tupperware with a wine saver cork stuck into it!  Hilarious and probably horrendous to clean raw meat out (because at some point you will get it into the rubber piece).

The Grand Cherokee’s Walnut Brown is fantastic.

I bought mine right before the Willy’s Wheeler was an option! I ended up putting Rubicon wheel/tire takeoffs on mine, then later did a 2.5" AEV lift at an AEV/Jeep dealer. I had 3.73 since I got the max tow package, but didn’t have the LSD, so fairly similar specs. I’m still having sticker shock looking at the price…

This kills the new JL Wrangler Rubicon for me. I had a JK Wrangler Unlimited Sport that was a total lemon / piece of garbage from a quality standpoint, but I loved it anyway. If I did it all again, I would buy a Rubicon because I actually off-road the thing.

Whoops! (Wasn’t aware of the price off the top of my head)

I was thinking this, but then remembered the BAC Mono and that’s even cooler.

Also, the $49k model will be available with 10k of incentives anyway.
