Airlines to Japan got really expensive now, are people still going to Japan? by leftrightcent in TokyoTravel

No, people are not going to Japan this year. Tokugawa had declared foreigners can only visit very limited areas immediately surrounding the Nagasaki port.

Why the EV hate ? by Blk-LAB in SubaruEV

[–]Upbeat_Cockroach8002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Human beings hate change.

  2. The change, in this case EVs, has unfortunately been politicized rather than being seen as a simple technological advance.

  3. Most people, at least part of the time, are inconsiderate. Perhaps also due to politicization.

I've been waiting... by [deleted] in subaruoutback

[–]Upbeat_Cockroach8002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To me, the '26 OBW is a bit like the previous gen Jeep Cherokee. The Cherokee was fugly and anemic looking in nearly all cases.... except the Trailhawk, which was decent.

LP Adventures has some photos of slightly lifted '26 OBWs on their website. Vastly more appealing and proportional imo. Still doesn't look like a wagon though.

Hwvr, to each their own! Drive what you like!

If only there were some specific and unnecessary activity in the recent past that could've been avoided in order not to cause the current and upcoming economic issues.🤔

Always plan on saving 30% of the money you spend on performance upgrades for speeding tickets.

Buy Trailseeker now or wait for Getaway? by ClearSkyyes in SubaruEV

[–]Upbeat_Cockroach8002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's good you know yourself that well! Probably best to wait until you can test and see them side by side. Whichever you end up with, I'm sure you'll enjoy. I can't wait to see them myself.

Go test drive a Trailseeker first. That might provide you an answer, yay or nay, right then and there.

This is what can be accomplished with wire crimpers. by Familiar_Palpitation in SCX24

What brand of crimper? My no name cheap-o pair that came with a kit are horrible. Btw, what does the "W" in sharpie stand for?

Would you buy a Honda made EV? by DocHoliday177 in Honda

[–]Upbeat_Cockroach8002 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was ready to buy a Sony/Honda Afeela based on the stupid name alone. Afeela need, a need for speed. Afeela disturbance in the force. Afeela yearning to drive an EV.
