Wow, I haven’t needed a chill long ride with almost 3k vert as badly as this in a long time. I have been in a negative head space lately for a variety of reasons. Cycle therapy is usually what works for me. Here’s to a greatly improved October!

Yeah, that’s expected. I think it’s okay if I grow up a little. I don’t need 300hp and high performance handling. It would be nice not to have a tank however. My wife has an ascent that is a fine car but miserable when it comes to body roll and pitch. Still, it’s great to get in and go from a to b rather than worrying about trying to enjoy the drive and then getting stressed about who’s in front of me or whatever. The rav4 I had was one of the most and least agitator cars to drive, if that makes sense
Cx5 is high on my list. For reasons I can’t explain, I want a black headliner. To get that, I need to spring for the signature, and suddenly I’m in the same price range as a genesis g80, which is the car I really want. Car prices are stupid right now, you can’t get one for less than 20 and I’m likely to spend 30 on anything worth owning
Y U no G70?
because he secretly wants the stinger
is the signature the one with red seats? Drove that one this year. It was impressive and just solid.
Rode some trails with some old homies, good times were had. More importantly buddy from Virginia landed a job in Sedona. More importantly I'll have a place to crash in Sedona.
Keep your sealant fresh.
tiny back seats. Apart from the miserable dealership experience and unpredictable reliability with the Alfa, the other major motivator is getting a bigger backseat for the kids, who keep getting bigger.
I do, but there's something wrong with stinger pricing that I can't figure out. The low end stinger is pretty stripped out, the premium offers a dump 4cyl and no LSD, then you jump to the 6cyl and the price skyrockets like 15k. So you pay a lot to get a kia.
I think so, the seats are like a very dark brownish. Those currently sit around $33k even with 30k miles on the clock...wild.
Interesting. The one I had as a loaner was sold out from under me. In fact, I had 3 different loaners this summer do the same thing. The cx5 I had was this one… which I guess has a light headliner.
the mazdas are nice cars, no doubt. this is the one I'm eyeballing:
I like that mazda is staying "true" to some of the things that I value in cars...regular transmissions, high quality driving dynamics, and physical buttons over touchscreen everything. A lot of that stuff makes sense- I can't understand why all electric cars require a tablet to be "modern"
