Reminds me of the early 2000's when enthusiasts would spend tens of thousands of dollars attempting to soup up Civics and Sentras instead if buying proper sports cars. It’s a neat party trick but why not just start with the right tool for the job?

Great looking car. How tough is it to wring more power out of the stock motor? I have to think this generation of Corvette would be a lot of fun with about 300HP.

Hey now, lets not forget that crossover buyers might, maybe need to haul a box of furniture home home from Ikea .7 times per year. The extra space is totally awsome to have then.

Exactly, if Obama saved a drowning kitten Trump would have his people track it down and hold its head under water.

The Huracan is a world class sports car that is perfectly at home on the track. Performance wise, the Urus would be embarrassed by a Camaro SS that costs as much as its heated seat option.

It’s the same idea as the vinyl roof in the ‘70's. Back then it was cool to trick people into thinking you had a convertible, nowadays it is cool to trick people into thinking you have an off-road capable adventure car.

I very rarely see an RX transporting anything more than a single middle-aged woman, simetimes with a yappy dog on her lap. Do buyers really need 7 extra empty seats?! Usually the dog doesn’t even need its own seat.

I once buit a Lego pirate ship all by my self...how’s that for impressive!

Was the word used by a white American who should know better? Was it used by an American PoC in a fraternal or joking way? Was it used ignorantly by someone who is a recent arrival to the US and is unfamiliar with the word’s history?

Yeah, I mean Japanese car companies happily adopt the shitty American sales model when selling cars in the US, why can’t American car companies adopt the awesome Japanese sales model when selling cars in Japan?

Don’t you see? The letters are jauntily (sun)dancing!

I agree “Professional Grade” is pretty lame, espcially when applied to GMC’s assortment of cheesy crossovers, but “A Truck You Can Live With” is equally bad, sort of like saying “A Truck That Isn’t Completely Miserable.”

I love it when people tell me that they bought a crossover so as not to have to very slightly bend their legs in order to get in and out. Ironically, many of these same people are yoga enthusiasts.

It’s a limited supply thing, these cars typically reuse the frame and VIN from an original car, otherwise they’d have to meet modern safety and emissions standards.

Yeah, there’s definitely an ever changing tippping point where cars go from being retro-cool to old-timey. Personally I think that is currently late 1950's to early 60's. Interest in late 60's muscle cars is at or just over its peak.

It is a sweet truck for sure, and a pickup always comes in handy, buy you’ll be able to buy a brand spanking new base model Wrangler pickup for not much more cash pretty soon.

That’s the real problem. Dealerships are struggling to justify their existence and distilling entire process down to filling out an online form would not help them in that regard - no matter how convenient it would be for the customer.

It seems like most of the crossovers reviewed latetly are being rated as very capable offroad for having the ability to take on a well-maintained dirt roads. Did you honestly drive this anywhere that the average Corolla couldn’t go?

Great news! Was really starting to lament the lack of options in the lifestyle-oriented, luxury/performance crossover space!
