  1. So small, hard for anyone over the average 5'8" tall to get into. Subaru is built for tiny people. Good cars, but built for tiny people.

  3. It's a shame the diesel CX5 ended up with terrible fuel economy ratings and was a flop. That thing should have had a 40mpg highway rating.

  4. Considering your profile does not say where you live, one cannot understand where your coming from. Clearly here on the west coast, the desire for EVs far out weights ICE and lots of people are waiting for selection of Choice. Newly built homes, condo's and even apartments all have charging built in. The West Coast Super highway, Highway I5 has chargers everywhere as do the cities and now we have the power companies starting to install on the smaller state freeways and roads to ensure plenty of choice for charging. I would say it depends on where you live and the attitude of the multi-cultural society as people on the west coast have clearly embraced EVs. Yes I have only ICE as I await full size SUV/Trucks that are EV to purchase.

  5. And way, way left of center progressives who belong to the Sierra Club and read The Atlantic. (Couldn't resist.)

  6. Hard not to like Subaru.... I enjoyed driving the Outback we took to Disney World last year. They have their quirks, but still a nice day to day car.....

  7. well...New car sales (lease sales) wouldnt be as high that it is/was at 17 million units last year... Each and every year, 16 million, 17 million units are sold/leased. There was a small window where there was a panic and literal meltdown when the industry dipped to 10 million... The figure, I believe, where it states that the avg age of the |American car is 11 to 12 years old is because in most parts of the US, weather is favorable to older cars, and...I think, the average American household owns 2 cars... One old car. and one newer car. And especially in the warmer parts of the US...the older car is quite old...but in good shape. But there is a very very fairly new leased car in the driveway... Yes like you said, leases are very popular in America. Exactly why the newer, shinier, blinglier EV Bolt WILL be leased when the lease to the Rogue, CR-V, Escape will be due. And NOBODY gonna buy out their CR-V lease when its up... Aint NOBODY gonna hang on to those ICE vehicles... Nothing exciting, enticing for them to do so... Practicality of gassing up? There is always a 2nd car in the family for that... To my point, when was the last time you saw a Rogue ONe Nissan Rogue on the road? That was a 2016 model... It is now 4 years old... Hence why I mentioned a 2024 EV Bolt. A CR-V that is leased today, you actually think the people in 2024 would be loyal to the CR-V to buy it out when they have a chance to drive a brand new, shinier, blinglier model in 2024 over that 4 year old CR-V? Cash for clunkers was introduced to get the economy rolling because new car sales dipped to 10 million... In 2024, I would think the economy would bounce back from Covid, actually, I did google and so far, 6 million units have been sold. That is on pace to hit 11-12 million. We are at just above half way throughn the year. That would be the number that the US hit in 2010 and 2011, the year that everyone praised the economy was finally back. It would seem that Covid hasnt had the same effect as when the economy collapsed in 2008 and 2009...

  8. The funniest comedy And why? 1. American consumerism will never allow people to hold unto anything longer than necessary, especially when something newer, shinier and blingier comes along. The classic chasing the Joneses syndrome is a huuuuuuge part of the American psyche... And one that Americans cant let go of. Especially when the automobile is concerned. 2. And you are talking about GM, arent you? The inventors of planned obsolescence of the car...meaning, General Motors was the one to popularize last year's model is yesterday's news. General Motors perfected making your neighbor jealous with the purchase of a new car of the year approach to car sales... 3. NEW car sales is what drives the American economy. Its embedded in your economic policies, your economic thinking, in your economic well being and quite frankly, its in your American DNA... You actually believe, Americans will forego buying a new of the year EV Chevy Bolt 2024 JUST to sit on an eight year old, put put Nissan Rogue, Star Wars Rogue One Edition? If memory serves me correct, Rogue One A Star Wars Story wasnt even THAT big of a Box Office hit for Americans to clamour over it... And I just know that CR-Vs and RAV4s and Ford Escapes arent that much different than a Nissan Rogue in that there is nothing for Americans to get excited about in keeping these shytboxes a long time... OH BOY! A 4 banger CUV!!! WE MUST MAKE IT A FAMILY HEIRLOOM!!! Cash For Clunkers made me come to this conclusion... 1. The American Economy is based on NEW car sales 2. It dont matter what the average American is driving and what average age the car is...NEW CAR smell beats everything all the time. 3. American ideology and American thinking will do anything to make American citizens buy NEW cars...

  9. Loving the new 2020 Ram Heavy Duty Black edition truck. Black Chrome really sets this right! This looks so far classier than the current butt ugly Chevrolet trucks.
