Red Alert. A buddy of mine recently acquired a 1998 BMW K1200RS from facebook marketplace that didn’t run. One fuel pump later and we took it on its first shakedown cruise today for a couple hours.

I’m sure it only makes financial sense to lease one. -
They never served out of Pittsburgh in any meaningful price effective way. Sure, they didn't charge for bags, but their prices where as high as American was with bags. Then I was also frequently an Gold status member with American and got domestic bags free anyway.

Exactly, it's just not enough engine for this size vehicle. That's reflected in the fuel economy which only increases by about 2mpg over the big 3.5 liter VQ.

Toyota News: 2026 Toyota RAV-4 Released as Hybrid Only
Drew Dowdell replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Toyota
Correct. There's no way it's 150kw at those charge speeds. My guess is 40k - 50kw. The Chevy Bolt at 55kw can do slightly faster than a mile of range per minute when you're charging from 0-100% which is roughly the same as this RAV-4 PHEV speed at 10% - 80%. -
Toyota News: 2026 Toyota RAV-4 Released as Hybrid Only

So, just to be clear. This new RAV4 can actually charge at 11kw, same as the new Toyota BZ and Toyota CH-R. The previous RAV-4 Prime was 6.6kw, which was the same AC charge rate as the BZ4x. So yeah, they did use the same AC charger. -

If they're built for off-roading, CVTs can actually do really well for low-speed crawling, but they have to be configured that way. Technically, you can get the equiv of 4LO that a proper 4WD would have if it's built for it. Will Toyota do that? I think it's unlikely. -
