Woohoo, car inspection came back clean from our Ebay purchase. Probably sometime next week, we'll take possession of a 2012 Subaru Outback. With that, our transition to granola libtards may be nearly complete.

a mustang and some very aged korean car (kia maybe?) from before korean cars were good.
immediate torque from electric motors pays off. That would melt a gearbox in about anything else, manual for sure, and automatic most likely
We'll see. Our Sonata has been pretty awesome. And before that, my Bonneville was a rock.
No, you're very wrong. The Sonata was awesome. I don't purchase cars that have bad Consumer Reports ratings.
Which is another good reason on why I don't buy new.
By the time its in my wheelhouse, there is good data.id considered the hyundais, they seemed very solid after that warm up period in the 2000s when they entered the us market. Very similar to when the japanese cars first came to market in the 80s.
I think im a honda guy for life for the most part though. Limited data points, but all 3 hondas ive had have been fantastic for reliability. The corolla has has way more repairs despite being newer, and single owner.

Consumer Reports is a SCAM. My pappy didn't need no magazine to tell him how his F150 ran.

Had some trouble a few weeks back in the blazing hot (105°F(reedumb)), in that I was smelling some gas fumes in the cabin of the Audi.
And by "some", I mean I was fucking HIIIIIIIIGH.
I couldn't find any active leaks in the primary fuel circuit, so I assumed it was the evap circuit from the fuel tank to relieve pressure on the tank when it's really hot out. Pulled out the fender liner to find that the line that runs from the charcoal canister up to the purge valve is just hanging out off the nipple of the canister.
So yeah, I fixed that. Probably no more gas smell in the hot anymore.

I fab shitboxes and shitbox accessories.
Itll be amazing if they can keep that performance. Current record is a 747 (I think) by a Model X, something like 280,000 lbs.
