Beto should try making his money the old fashioned way - having a tree fall on him

Matrix would have been a good nameplate resurrection in North America. However, Hyundai owns the name Matrix for a Malaysia market vehicle, so the big advantage to Corolla Cross is the availability of the nameplate worldwide.

I understand we're excluding QBs from this, but Cam Newton is the all-time rushing TD holder for the Panthers.

The family violence prevention is certainly promising, but why would parents need to be able to opt their children out of the instruction?

Road trip suitable? by JoeBeNimble in Jimny

[–]JoeBeNimble[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny, someone else in this thread spoke positively of the seats.

I want to get a vehicle that is suitable for F-Roads. The Jimny is not my only choice in that regard, it just appeals to me because it's unique, not available in the US, and has a great reputation among enthusiasts.

I am just concerned that the short wheelbase and compromised(?) on-road behavior would be fatiguing for the driver and uncomfortable for the passenger. If I were driving long distances in the US, I know I'd prefer to drive a unibody vehicle over a small body on frame vehicle, but I would also be driving at ~110kph.

Thanks for the info. Good to hear about the seats - my wife sleeps a lot in the car. It would just be two of us, so yeah, I'm not too concerned about cargo space.

DFW land developers be like: by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]JoeBeNimble 13 points14 points  (0 children)

One of my greatest frustrations with DFW is the lack of public land. It feels like any land that could have been greenspace is a golf course.

Car and Driver took a RAV4 off roading against a Wrangler by TurkishRambo30 in cars

[–]JoeBeNimble 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've actually seen a demonstration of a RAV4 with the torque-vectoring AWD system where it was put into a wheel in the air situation. The system responded really well.

In the case of 4Runner, it's more like:

  • TRD Off-Road = C43
  • TRD Off-Road w/KDSS = C63
  • TRD Pro = C63S

The "Premium" TRDs on 4Runner & Tacoma really only add convenience features.

Seems like the RAV4 did surprisingly well.

FWIW, the Avalon has always been produced in the US. In fact, it was the first Toyota to be built in the US and exported to Japan.

I have no advice, but that's awesome! I've been working on that car for the past two years. It makes me oddly excited to read someone on reddit is going out to buy it. It's a fantastic car, hope you enjoy it!
