She really should park all the way in that spot...

Chili Pepper- Jeep Wrangler

I had a 2001 Xterra SE loaded, manual transmission 4x4 as my first new car I’ve purchased. I modified it very similarly as the truck in the title pic of this article. It was a great rig, and I took it through some gnarly obstacles in the southeast US, Texas, and a weeklong trip to Colorado driving the many trails,…

Thank you, JBurch, for the thorough reply! I didn’t realize a diesel was available in this model. I may go take a look at these this week. Cheers!

I’m in the market for one of these, and am not a fan of the styling change. I hope the comments section can give me a bit of insight into pertinent usability questions and things I (and my wife) need to look at should we choose to test drive one.

Wow, talk about falling in love with an ogre. I could understand if he had a couple for parts or something, since these are bound to die with no considerable aftermarket support, but to collect multiple pristine examples? I don’t get it with a car like this. I guess it all depends on your investment horizon. I know a…

I never knew that, thanks for the comment. I have lots of adjectives to respond to that marketing angle, but am at a loss on where to start.

I am really surprised to not see more Real Genius references. It was the first thing that “popped” in my head!

This will probably get buried, but to put some more thought into it, if that is indeed what this represents, then 35 may actually represent a mph at which this torque is measured. With that assumption and the circumference of the tire, which was also publicized with this mystery plate, you can back calculate the…

Everyone acts as if it’s so crazy to have them so large on the front....unless it’s AWD....then, not so crazy is it?

2576 lb ft torque at each wheel, which sounds absurd since this is lower than the Hellcat if at the rear wheels alone. Then you consider power going to all four wheels, and see it’s an improvement. This also may be the reason they’ve stacked this ride with factory drag radials at all 4 corners. Hmmmmm.....

“Barn find”, produces some variety, some gems.

I wouldn’t ever buy one, but like any other alarm type, it’s a deterrent, not a solution. Anything is defeatable, but I find it entertaining that new features may enable someone to access a vehicle with more ease than before. When technology fails us, you can always revert back to mechanical means. Those of course,…

True, but disappointing when you have to come back to a mechanical deterant because the thieves have developed an easier way to access your vehicle than picking a lock or the old school slim jim. Maybe The Club, needs to market, The Car Boot.

Only one real solution, keep valuables out of the car, and because everything comes back around in popularity again.

I used to work within an Infiniti dealer when these were in their hay day and had the opportunity to drive a lot of them, and they were quite impressive. If you could look past their engine guide recall and their transmissions that had some tendency to blow up, they were great cars.

How does this affect second owners of current model Tesla’s? Will all current Tesla’s retain unlimited charging, potentially holding up resale values well into the future?

Jason - the best way this happens is if a model such as this as designed from the beginning as a low cost option. With the conventional business model, all cater to pushing customers toward the loaded models, then even the low priced models have overhead, wiring and equipment built into even a base model units,…

BFH. That is all.
