Car Talk 5: The Juice is Loose!

[4zilch]

I think there are quite a few others that would take that crown. Like schmee or even stradman

I like Doug a lot and used to enjoy his videos but the last several years have been terrible and he is maybe the most popular car youtuber, so I'd say majorly overrated. Back when he did fun stuff like DD an H1 in Philly, hit the drive through in a RHD Skyline, try to pick up chicks in a 360, etc. he was great. His reviews are so stupid though. He dwells on the most asinine aspects of a car and doesn't even address how they drive at all.

So he's the personification of this forum.

I'm not a fan of Doug, he doesn't really go into the bits I'm interested in.
Sure the buttons and what not are cool, but there are other Youtubers who do the same thing.

I think it just comes down to you and I having rather similar proclivities with cars , like you have owned every vehicle I have owned

If you're into Miatas, C5s, BMWs with no features, etc. Doug isn't really your guy. If you're one to over tail lights, screen sizes, gauge cluster graphics, and interior buttons, he's your man.

Nothing but screens, tail lights, gauges and buttons in this bad boy.

His reviews are as dull as any review could ever be, but his view counts indicate people love his shit. I don't get it, but more power to him.

I like Harry's Garage too.

I tried, he has a soothing voice, but something about him irks me. It's like a less down to earth Jaylenos garage.

I like watching Doug; I find his descriptiveness very entertaining and enjoyable to watch. I also like seeing what various car manufacturers do to solve the same problems regarding ergonomics, safety, aesthetics, etc. It is right up my alley.

So my somewhat local dillerman has 49 units in stock. Seems like they are back to pre pandemic levels and then some. But no s yet and not a single TRD pro. Loaded off roads are 47k now

Was trying to gauge how much money I wasted by ing when I did. Seems like things are still about the same ... but inventory levels are certainly picking up.

Prices on goods sold to millionaires aren't likely to change much for the foreseeable future, mostly a steady increase while the poors get poorer.

So .. Doug got a new defender

They're bigger than I expected - seen several on the road so far.

Nice looking,

Yea they are quite nicer in person than pics. I really loved it but got too spooked with the reliability. If given another choice I’d pick that other than my

I'm kinda excited about the Bronco, honestly.

Yeah, I'm kinda excited for the Bronco, MK8, and new WRX.

That’s right bronco incomming is of keen interest as well.

1. Bronco
2. Reliability
3. Depreciation
4. Having to order one because of infinity option combos

The infinity combo thing is great, though. You can spec a bare bones Bronco with the Sasquatch package. That's awesome.

Correcto, I was referring to the Slovakian car

The LR is a Slovakmobile?

Yup. Brand new Slovakian fucktory to build up to 250k units. Such british much wow

[fledonfoot]

I’m looking forward to the bronco.

Lease on the Power Wheels is up in the summer. We should be able to score a deal on the wrangler.

It's great for the customer, a nightmare of the OEM...who has had challenges with simpler launches in recent past (Explorer last year).

If the Bronco launch goes remotely well, I'll be amazed. I actually really like the product, Ferd just sucks.

It takes Toyota a year to two to get their shit together with new launches in established factories that already built previous versions; a whole new factory will pump out defects, no doubt.

The SVKs built my wife's 2016 Touareg, and it is seen zero repair time since new aside from a rust spot that formed on her tailgate and covered under warranty. I wish that I could say the same for the R. I'm confident that Nitra is a big enough city near proper universities to support the staff skill sets required to build a car. I'd probably want to give LR a few years with this one if it were something I was considering buying.
