My issue is with the price. Not necessarily even the price, but how little you get on the base model. I mean, if I am spending 35K on a car, I expect it to have power locks and windows as a BARE minimum. This is 2019 and that comes standard on even the cheapest vehicles these days. Even if its slightly better…

If you are watching a trailer, then you don’t get to complain about spoilers, since trailers are by definition spoilers. You can say a trailer reveals too much, but that’s a risk you were aware of when you clicked play.

I work in neuro trauma, and also have had someone total my car because they decided to try to cross a 55 MPH two lane country road and didn’t see me coming. It doesn’t matter how good of a driver you are. All it takes is one mistake by someone else, one drunk, etc., and your fate is entirely in someone else’s hands.

I imagine keeping a maintenance log on a VW is a lot like this:

You know it’s possible for people to be an enthusiast about something, yet not take it to 1000%?
Like you can really like mountain biking without owning a full suspension $2000 bike. Or you can enjoy music without buying a $1000 turntable and being a vinyl snob.
Stop telling people the “proper way” to enjoy things

As a Land Cruiser guy, I have to point out that even a beat-up, clapped-out old FJ62 likely would have started in that instance.

Or, he could just fix the thing that he knew was broken better than two weeks ago.

Hard disagree. We went around and around with DirecTV about sports blackouts after they promised us we could get a team in our geographic region. Turns out we couldn’t after we paid for service and nobody could explain why. It was only after submitting a BBB complaint that we actually got the package refunded and were…

Brake engineer here:

Perusing Good Car Bad Car suggests that there hasn’t been strong US growth in wagon sales so much as there’s been strong growth in Subaru Outback sales.

Coupes have two doors, thank you 

when people see wagons they think of Chevy Chase and the vaginas just instinctively dry up. 

In Alberta they sometimes use salt, but in most cases they use “sand,” and by sand I mean railroad gravel. Yeah your car doesn’t rust, but everyone’s paint looks like dogshit and you buy a new windshield basically every year. Plus it’s scary AF when the dinosaur bone sized piece of so-called sand hit while you’re…

Way too practical and too much visibility. By the time these artsy-fartsy “industrial designers” get done with it, it will be an impractical car with no visibility. Here, let’s fix it for them. This is what will come out:

So going clockwise, we have...

She's still not going to fuck you.

Seems like this is an update to the old way VW used to say “fuck you”:

For $40k you should get power adjustable seats.

You know, a family member that is a huge fan of the looks and driving dynamics of the Veloster needed a daily driver car in the south while he wasn’t driving his truck daily to work, so no snow. I told him that at the time, 2017 Velosters had so much money on the hood, he could walk in and buy a $25k MSRP Veloster…

It’s more Pb than Ti.
