The sad thing is that he actually believes this “thinkpiece” will make people want to be like him instead of just making him seem like an insufferable tech-douche-bro.
Excellent summary of the sad state of SUV affairs. I finally replaced my 21 year old Bronco this year with a Wrangler Unlimited. The Wrangler and 4Runner are the only 2 vehicles on the market that even come close to approximating the Bronco’s functionality. With the lack of off road capable vehicles on the market…
Fair point, but if you wanted a luxury car that trounces the Porsche in every conceivable measure an IS350 can be had for about $10k less. Again, people are paying for the badge and perceived prestige of owning a “Porsche.”
I can’t think of a shittier car than a grossly overpriced crossover that does nothing especially well.
The fact that I could buy both a Toyota Sienna AND a Toyota FRS for the price of a Macan would indeed suggest that people are willing to pay tens of thousands for a badge and image. A yuppie yoga mom image but an image none the less.
All I can say is I hope the Big J is your mechanic!
Brute forcing the code might not take that long depending on how long the code is. It looks like the device has a standard 10 number keypad; I was able to crack the 5 digit, 10 number code on my Grand Marquis door pad in about 45 minutes. Of course it could be that a code isn’t generated until after payment is made…
Aye matey , nothing like a few barnacles to hornswaggle the blasted lubbers and matches me ship’s wheel to boot!
Two less crossovers on the planet, about 500 million more to go!
How about this: crossovers are so overpriced that you could have a new crossover OR for the same price a minivan AND an additional set of wheels and snow tires, a mountain bike, a very large TV, a puppy, a Fender Stratocaster, a fabulous vacation to Hawaii, and last but not least the smug satisfaction of not having to…
Yes and no, I think it is still the best system out there but it definitely has serious problems, kind of like a Mustang at Cars and Coffee - it is a lot of fun until it gets out of control and starts running people over. Globalization is kicking America in the scrote right now but I’m not sure Trump’s plan to put…
It has to do with the fact that Nike is publicly traded, investors want to squeeze every last fraction of a cent of profit out of the company and give exactly zero f*cks about the American workforce or anything else that doesn’t have a direct correlation to the bottom line.
Isn’t the entire thing kind of totally fake?
That sounds about right, I thought for sure I’d have to special order but ended up finding that most dealerships had a handful of manual Wranglers and Wrangler Unlimiteds on the lot.
2016 Wrangler with 6 speed manual here, oh how I love wallowing in my smug manual righteousness!
Definitely not a very good shot in the ad. It isn’t a bad looking car at all seen from this angle. Still, I’ll admit it does look a little bit like the illegitimate love child of a Monte Carlo and an Aston Martin Vantage.
It’s all relative I suppose; being the best looking crossover is like being the best looking woman on the Russian Olympic power lifting team.
When a dog’s life is on the line and I’m forced to think of a Land Rover this is the image that comes to mind:
It reminds me of the goofy golf cart cars in the movie Idiocracy; horribly proportioned and ungainly looking. I’m sure it will sell like crazy though because cheap CUV. Sign of the times I suppose.
