My neighbor got one with a manual because the original owners wife couldn't drive a stick. It's nice.

They are nice. We did over a hundred miles the dirt of the Ochocos national forest.

I wanted the v6 though. I was tempted by a base model with the manual. But my kid will dive it (at 16)and the women. The kid drove it quite a bit in the dirt. She’s 11 but she had a quad and drives the golf cart around the house. She drives good for an 11 year old.

He's got the Sasquatch with a manual. It's a solid spec.

Indeed it is.
I got a wildtrak which is the high speed baja model with the hoss 3.0 fox suspension. Which is more my style than rock crawling.
I really like the steelies in the base. Which basesquach I don’t think has.

If they can't drive a stick they can drive their freaking bicycle. A stick is critical IMO to forcing people to not drive around holding ****ing phones.

No. Stick shift just makes it more dangerous. They're gonna be holding their phones regardless of transmission type.

How can we make it more dangerous for them? If this does it...I'm all for it.. Consequences and such.

I think Kia is having issues with the lease calculator. I'm about to go sign if the is accurate. For a EV6 GT AWD.

hmm. get that in writing from the actual dealer. does that include any OR state tax credits?

with the CO tax credit rolled into the equation my 0 extra down lease payment on a 24/12 lease on my bZ4X is $54.91 so this deal's $152.29 isn't entirely out of the realm.

I'm guessing it's a glitch. If I can do $2k or less down and a couple hundred a month, it makes sense. It's damn nice, I just went around the block.

MSRP
net cap cost after all credits passed through or otherwise applied
residual value
money factor

And if you do lease that structure it as a 0 down deal. There’s no reason to put money down on a lease imo.

If you are in the market for a high-clearance floor jack this thing slaps hard.

I needed a second floor jack for the job trailer, and since I already had a cast wheel low pro version I opted for this beast since it can be used in the dirt and sand. Very impressed. Wish I would have bought it sooner.

Handle locks into a "travel" position that makes it easy to move around, has an integrated adjustable riser for abnormally tall shit, and is a rapid pump and lets down easily. Very impressed

No idea. The MSRP was $44k after all the various discounts which was like $16k off, but they wanted $430 a month and I'm not even close to cool with that. Polestar said 2 new cars were coming, so depending on what they are leasing for, it might be an option. There is an '01 Z06 in Vancouver that might also be an option.

That ev6 is one massive station wagon. Drove one briefly. Felt like… a car.

Test I have seen it's very thirsty but not sure if you need to drive fra in it. It the same price the Ionic 5N looks would be my choice of the two.

The Ionic has that awful side crease that just throws the lines out the window. If it wasn't butt ugly, I would be on board. I wish the would do a Veloster N rwd EV, I would be first in line.

It makes absolutely no sense why they did it that way. If the door was smooth, the N with longer wheelbase would look pretty good.

I still would rather have a 2 seat coupe, it's me and maybe my dog 98% of the time. I have no need for a back seat or doors to support it.

If I can get a Project V for sub $75k, I will.

Speaking of weird side crease...

best I can do is 2 years of hype, $130k base model, and vaporware DOA.
