Why are there so many more interesting options for Europe? All we get is F-150, small F-150, and a unibody F-150.
>>28871313What there is "interesting"? All I see are 15 variations of a Transit Connect. Everything else we get here.
>>28871325We don't even get a Transit Connect anymore.
>oh man another f150 i wish i had a really uncomfortable slow gay van with a slushbox
>>28871342I wonder why. It was a steaming pile of shit.
>>28871318Im gonna rebadge it to the niggat
Looking for a car that fits this criteria since I need one to commute to uni>Fun to drive>won't rape my wallet with expenses>good gas mileage >reliable enough to be able to beat on it once in a while>good power (only preformance mods I'm willing to do are bolt ons and thats if it's gonna make significant gains)>comfortable enough for a 20-30 minute commute every day>sedan or at the very least decent rear seats>good amount of trunk space>able to be drivable in a ny winter meaning lots of snow>easy to work on yourself >good looking
>>28864259>EA888 is reliable so long as you change the oilNever leave town w/o at least two spare coil packs.
>>28862953>Good gas mileage>only performance mods I'm willing to do are bolt onsNice LARP
>>28865650nigga just convert it to manual
>>28868174The a6 and a7 got better more reliable versions of the 3.0t than the s4 and s5 for some reason

>Abdul Azizi is “a longtime Porsche owner and fan of the brand,” and like many a Porsche fan, he wanted a 911 GT3. He found a 2022 model with just 34 miles on the clock at Porsche Warrington, and he purchased the highly desirable car for $281,940.>The suit claims that Azizi was assured by the dealership that the car “had only ever been used to promote the brand and familiarize Porsche dealership personnel with the features of the new model.” Azizi reportedly asked for the window sticker, but was told one was not available for the car and was given a build sheet instead. However, once the vehicle arrived at Azizi’s Florida home, the lawsuit claims he found the window sticker in the glove compartment: “Stamped across the window sticker in bold, red letters were the words: PCNA CAR NOT FOR SALE,” all in capital letters.>Shortly thereafter, the lawsuit alleges the car developed electrical issues. Azizi reportedly took the car to a Porsche-certified technician who told him that it “looked like prior work had in fact been performed consistent with its prior use as a training vehicle.” Another technician at a Porsche service center “noted that a portion of the undercarriage had been removed and replaced incorrectly, further indicating prior work on the vehicle before it was sold,” according to the suit.>The technicians were unable to repair the 911 GT3 Azizi filed a Lemon Law claim, and won an arbitration settlement which required Porsche to repurchase the GT3, the report says; however, he still has the car as the settlement is being appealed because it didn’t include repayment of finance charges and sales tax.>Azizi is seeking damages for fraudulent inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, fraudulent concealment, civil conspiracy, negligent misrepresentation and consumer law violations.when did Porsche become so scummy? i expect shit like this from dodge
>>28870826Shalom, rabbi.
>>28870793>Wait I thought it was the white person's brand?For some reason brown people see German cars as a status symbol and aspiring to having a German car as a sign that they made it.
>>28870625>Sell product to your customer>Customer uses your product>You don't like how they use it>Sue themWhat kind of Jewish behavior is this?
>>28870793The only white person brand is Volvo Polestar or some shit
why on earth would a brand like porsche be hiring novices
I've only been to Texas once but it was horrible because the roads are all straight and no one can drive. Sometimes I think about moving there but I can't imagine living in a place without curves.
>>28871266Texas sucks. It sucked when it was majority White. And it sucks even more now that it's majority brown.
>>28871266Yeah you would hate things that are straight, you queer.
>>28871323its ok to be gay, unconditionally
>>28871324>t.drives a Ford
Why do people in Texas even get nice cars? Just get something with comfy seats like a Nissan Pathfinder. It's all the same anyway.
I hate leather seatsThey look bad, feel bad, and are so fucking annoying to cleanWhy have they become the standard of everything?
>>28870805I'm willing to forego fancy shit I actually want to avoid "leather" seats by choosing a lower trim. Slippery seats are retarded, I want the best ass traction possible when I'm bending my appliance around the on ramp tailgating an HVAC van.
>>28871213cloth and velour ftwif you've ever had the fortune of sitting on wool seats you'll probably never want to go back even to cloth though...ignorance is bliss
>>28870805Remember what they took from you.>>28870951Cloth and velour mog pu leather. It feels better on the skin and won't burn/freeze you in extreme temperatures like pu leather will.>>28870999>it's not leather OP it's plastic or plastic layeredThis and checked. Real leather, like tanned animal skin, is expensive. See how much leather apparel costs for comparison of what you should expect in price.
>velourYou guys can't be serious. Velour seats smell so bad once you sweat a bit on them that my dad had to cover all seats with cheap plastic.
>>28871021>"Automotive leather suppliers are sluts and whores"-Literally verbatim quote from the owner of Icon 4x4 owner Jonathan Ward, in one of his videosOP if you dont like leather just slap a seat cover on and stop your sperging. As a bonus the seat cover will preserve the leather for resale.
They laughed at me. Scoffed at my quiet hum. Mocked my hybrid badge like it was a joke. “Gay car,” they said. “For fags and liberals.” They cut me off in traffic. Coal rolled me with their lifted brodozers. Shared memes making fun of me.And all those years, I took it. I stayed efficient, patient, and reliable. I listened to the sneers, the revving engines, the honking horns of arrogance.But now as gas prices skyrocket, suddenly those who mocked me have stopped. They cry out in outrage about the cost of gas, they blame politicians, they blame corporations. They blame anyone but themselves.I've seen their true face. And when their wallets run empty, and they are drowning in debt, and they come to me and ask me for a ride, I'll whisper back..."No."
> and they are drowning in debt, and they come to me and ask me for a ride, I'll whisper back..."No."and then you do it anyway because you're being used as an uber taxi by a filthy indian
>>28871250they scoffed at you because at one point almost half your owners bought one just to show off how much they supposedly care about the environment
>>28871250Thanks for the Uber ride. Here's a $3 tip.
2016 4runner sr5 with 200k miles listed for 13k. One serious accident reported two years ago, otherwise clean history. Blue with some hail damage. Would you buy it?
>>28866953If you normal things to a normal car you should get normal resultsStop spamming these threads op
>>28867986I am glad you came to your senses op
>>28866915Some anon literally just bought one for $5K more and 100K less miles lmao
>>28868397this is an american website for americans, go esl somewhere else thirdiedon't reply to me or my posts ever again
>>28866915>serious accident they pooped in it, didn't they?
EV cars win again
>>28871198>brent crude at $110 and no signs of stopping holy shit lmao
>>28871198>He makes less than 400k and cares about gas prices
Oh no, is "AI" porn generation, crypto mining, and mass surveillance driving up electricity costs and emissions generated?
>>28871198>wait until he/xir realizes what powers his EV>wait for it's next electric bill
>brand new>regular cab>RWD>none infotainment system >2.7 liter turbo>$26,615talk me out of it
>>28869771My work van has a 4 cylinder turbo and I regularly haul 7000-7500lbs with it. Has had zero mechanical engine issues with 220k miles on the clock so far.
>>28870809lies it's 4500if it were acrtually under 3400 lbs it would be the most popular 21st century sports car
>>28870856Wow you can read the brochure.
>>28870245Welt belts are fine as long as you ONLY use that specific engine oil and change it religiously.The failures are from people going to jiffylube for their $39.95 special because they dont want to pay the dealer $120.Not defending the price or practice but the belt itself isnt the issue and is a solid design.
>>28871238The belt for my 3.0 durmax LZ0 is supposed to be serviced at 200k miles. It'll take me 12+ years to get to 200k. Its a non issue to me and I can probably do it myself. But even if I had to pay to get it done, the 2-3k it'll cost isn't a big deal. The belt is made of Kevlar too its not like it dissolves in oil. Sure, in a perfect world i would have rather had a chain, but I have seen them fail as well. People are definitely overreacting about it.
Honda solved cars with the Fit
>>28860949How many clowns FIT in that?
I had one as my first car and it was fine. Not a fan of the double spark plug per cylinder meme but it was reliable, frugal, had AC and was big enough to haul my guitar rig around. Not to mention you could wing every last bit of power out of the engine in the twisties without ever coming close to the speed limit, kek
Poor gook incel car

Rule 34 car

What does rule 32 state
>>28870576>If it exists, there are, or will be clout chaser modifications made for it once the vehicle falls into the wrong hands

Wrenchlet / retard here. Why can't I just get some basic bitch electric golf kart or EV kit and then fibreglass an actually not fugly exterior to it and have a better ev than anything on the market?
>>28871124software updates and sensors for trying to riceout a regular ev and golfkart probably doesn't have the battery life or speed to be viable
>>28871124You can. Atleast in the U.S.Every state (even commiefornia) has some process to register home built and kit cars.
>>28871151Holy shit it's time
if it just had a turbo it would be perfect
>>28870271I'm sure that people are searching for recalls and issues and failures because of how reliable they are.
>>28871076>um not really if you read the individual comments over the course of multiple reviews its clear the kia/hoon is nicerI think I might've cross referenced these twohttps://www.caranddriver.com/kia/sportage-2025https://www.caranddriver.com/toyota/rav4And it's like a half point difference and a model year difference so it's not really fair or even too relevant. >there's a bunch of other downsides that you are unwilling to admit existMy original point is that despite the flaws Rav4 has, someone can find value in that vehicle that you may not necessarily agree on. I was never unwilling to admit downsides, I just don't think they affect me personally as much as you. Maybe the Rav4's upsides don't make up for its downsides for you, but it does for me (even though I wouldn't buy either one) >like, serious mountains and you took it up winding roads?Yeah but it's not like I was hard cornering up and downhill to the limit or anything, we were just cruising and it was ok enough for someone who doesn't care about cars and isn't daily commuting a mountain road. My local roads are seriously fun winding roads that I see Porsche, bimmers, and Z's go for fun up and downhill climbs. Ears pop as you climb elevation type shit.>the rogue sucked my dudeHonestly, I don't care for the Rogue, Sportage, or Rav4. They're boring vehicles that might as well be the same to me if not, one is nicer in some aspects than others. Do you have a Sportage? My friend has one and she likes it enough but she doesn't give two shits about cars or driving. She felt fine riding in my friend's Rogue with the 2.5 liter engine. It feels silly to make such a thread about boring stock commuter cars
>>28871165>someone can find value in that vehiclethe value is simply the brand prestige alone>Yeah but it's not like I was hard cornering up and downhill to the limit or anythingthe engine was seriously underpowered
>>28866751>ugly fwdslop>matte plastic wheel arches>perfectno
>>28871189if it was rwd it would be significantly less roomy inside
I see a lot of people saying the Impreza hatch is not worth the money because it's their cheapest option, and that you should go with a Crosstrek instead.I'm not currently looking to buy right now, but I am interested in a modern hatch and the 2016-2019 Impreza has my interest. (among other cars, I am not dead set on Subaru)Is the Crosstrek hype a US thing? I don't see the point in needing an SUV really, some of them don't offer a whole lot of cargo space vs. a hatchback.
>>28867963looks like it was both
>>28867745Honda CRV's are, or at least were, just Honda Accords with a larger chassis
>>28867743faggot
>vehicle>vehicle (with a half inch taller spring and bigger wheel and tire combo)
I have a 2017 with 115k miles.Wheel bearings died.All suspension is shotOccasional camshaft sensor issue.Other than that it allows me to do faggy gay shit like drive to work and bring my bicycles/kayaks to the lake with the wife for cheap.
What EV and solar panels are you buying?
I bought a Ford Maverick XL hybrid AWDJust replaced the 27lbs steelies with 23lbs bronco sport takeoffs (same as maverick fx4 wheels but not black). I have the ultimate daily driver.
