Car culture isn't dead.

@andrewkrok Let's nip this one in the butt.

@weatherchannel yet again displaying editorial mastery.

A fascinating question posed by @JakeLingeman and the folks at @Newsweek: Can Tesla unseat the dominant Ford F-Series?

Nothing quite like watching my skis sit in the snow and hearing the flight attendant tell me there is nothing they can do to get them on the plane.

@Ballaban Personally, every explosive development I've experienced has been unpleasant.

@alanisnking And what if you have to pick one?

On today's commute, I saw a car with the famous "This Car Climbed Mount Washington" sticker on its rear window.

The car had broken down in the middle of the road.

Cow Tales, the most underappreciated candy of all time.

@cthaese Go on!

600k miles is a bit of a reach, but after double-checking this commenter's math, I'm blown away by how close it actually is. Moral of the story: as industry MPG figures climb higher, the potential fuel-cost savings between competitors drop.

[Matt Smith @msmith627]

And, because nobody drives their car 600,000 miles, here's the 100k-mile breakdown for the Prius/Corolla Hybrid (and AWD models) versus the RAV4 Hybrid/Rav4.

Also, watch Cliff's comparo review on our YouTube channel. It's excellent!

61 minutes to commute 4.7 miles. A new record! (Not the good kind.)

@andrewquillin Honestly, not good enough to be AI. ChatGPT fails at many things, but it's pretty good at grammar and syntax.

Want an off-roading "rig" but need a car small enough for city living? Check out Subaru's "riglet," the 2024 Crosstrek Wilderness:

The CX-90 also has a higher down payment--$4K vs $2.5K--but the effective monthly payment when that down payment is factored in is still only slightly higher ($503 vs $488)

[Matt Smith @msmith627]

PHEV models offer incredible value when leased. Right now, Mazda's offering the CX-90 PHEV (example with a $47K MSRP) for $392/month. At the same time, a Miata ($28K MSRP) can be leased for $419/month.

[Matt Smith @msmith627]

It's the tax credits that do it. The CX-90 PHEV offer includes $7,500 lease customer cash.
