Glad yours has been trouble-free. My 2014 (also Molten Orange!) was not a well-made car. In the 3 years and 39,000 miles I had it before it got totaled, the passenger rocker trim coming off three times. The rear quarter/bumper assembly popped out several times on the driver’s side. It would stall almost every time

Drove gently eh? Uh huh... Like my 70-year-old father in law that still drives like he’s a 16-year-old with his heavily-modified truck.

Also, if I had a mower like this, I’d be much less keen to sell my place in the suburbs that’s on over 3/4 acre.  I could mow it in a few minutes, instead of the few hours (plus trimming) it takes now.  

Now playing

So obviously some folks at Honda were big fans of Home Improvement during the ‘90s.

It’s a car from the North. Brake lines every 10-12 years is just how it goes. I was staggered to find a couple originals on my ‘95 F-150 when I bought it in 2016. Funny thing is, one of the replacements previous owners had done is what actually failed on me.

I’d love to vote, but the poll’s broken... AGAIN!

Eh, not convinced we’ve seen the last of this

That’s weird, because the first thing I thought of was that the district was closing school buildings. 

Trouble with the Fridgeline was the price-you could get a “real” truck for the money. The Fridgies weren’t much more efficient than “real” trucks, either. Then, there was the social stigma of spending that kind of money on a truck that was only 2/3 as capable.

It’s about damned time someone makes a small truck again! I hope they offer it in a single-cab version, too. I’d rather have more bed for hauling materials than wasted interior volume I’d be worried about trashing.

I’ve only watched the first episode so far, but I was truly impressed by the attention to detail with everything-the cars, the signage, etc. I also found it to be an incredible depiction of Soviet culture, from what I know of it.

This is a great point. Even with my X, I can hit the internet and find an entire cohort that’s had, and resolved, whatever problem I’m having. And to that point, later part revisions to fix problems invariably supersede old part numbers and make the cars that much better.

Yay, tariffs without any strategy or thought!  Woo!  

Yay, I wasn’t singled out for special treatment!

My daily’s a 2003 X-Type (I know, boo hiss Ford... whatever. It’s AWD and has a stick.

Nice Price! Yes, I know these are more likely to be broken than anything, but I don’t care. It’s beautiful, well-cared for, and it’s a Jag.

I’m sad and not sad about this. Jaguar’s current design language looks worse the larger the car-it looks amazing on the XE, good on the XF, awkward and ungainly on the XJ.

Hellooooo Jaguar!

Since the hell when did the French become a bunch of Chads?  I mean, the “well Nissan, since you didn’t want to talk, we’re going to talk to FCA, and we’ll get back to you on how that works out for you” move is big.  

A few years ago, I had a cell phone (LG V10) that, for some reason, had an IR broadcaster integrated into it. So, I could literally use my phone as a TV remote.
