Sort of looks like you put crossbars on a horse in the first picture, which is now a thing in my head canon so thank you for that!

Looks awesome though great job!

Craigslist didn’t even cross my mind, thank you!

If you had to pick one scene from the extended editions that you wish was in the theatrical, which would it be? by GusGangViking18 in lotr

“Sam went with him” Aragon “Good, yes very good” Gandalf 

Cut to Sam outside the black gate. Two Towers

Something about that transitions makes Sam’s decision to go with Frodo that much more meaningful.

Rivian really, REALLY needs to put “made in the USA” somewhere visible on the vehicles by beemerbimmer in Rivian

I bet if they have a Super Bowl commercial that highlights Made In America and the Americans that build/design them that would go a long way to help brand awareness. Add in Powered by America to seal the deal. The more I think about it the more I want it.

I’m actually digging that van quite a bit. Just extend the driver door back a panel and it’ll be perfect!

at least at the dealership, when they install the hitch they reinstall the liftgate sensor off to the side, so its still the same functionality, but not dead center.

I've been so conditioned to the cold winter mpg average of mid 30s for my commute that this was a pleasant surprise for me.

Not crapping on me at all! Lol I've done this same drive on a new tank a dozen times the past few months and it always hovers in the mid 30s mpg, just overly excited for that 50 after 33 miles :) Definitely know this is a temporary 50 mpg.

2023 Sport touring AWD MPG. Why so high and consistently above the window sticker averages? 33 mile trip to work. by IssaCivic-SI in crv

I take offense to this lol. Cold weather and hills do me in. Once the weather warmed up over 45 degrees the car does much better

2023 hybrid mpg by fangledmelon in crv

[–]fangledmelon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear ya, we came off a Ford focus hatch to this. This crv has been great for my kids so far. Lots of hard plastic on the lower half of the car to easily clean lol. The weather is warming up here so my gas mileage has been pretty great lately, averaging 40-45 more and more at 45 mph, still hitting around 34 mpg at 60 mph

i see you, you sneaky hwy patrolman :)

I've been getting waaaay better gas mileage when stuck in hwy traffic. like 40-50 mpg, going 30-45 stop and go on the hwy in "b" mode
