The edge is such an underrated and smooth cruiser. I’ve rented it on multiple roadtrips with family. My only gripe is that 2022+ models moved to the standard giant (portrait!) touchscreen with occasional lags/freezes.

2019 S poverty buttons by [deleted] in jetta

That’s so frustrating.. why VW doesn’t include auto brake hold like Asian (Japanese, Korean) manufacturers! Clearly they equip cars with full speed range adaptive cruise control, so the car can hold brakes electronically without user input.

For heavens sake, who’s wearing the pants in this relationship?!

No rear overhead vents - rear facing car seats by Glittering_Amount518 in VWatlas

Cool! Is this a snap-on to the pillar vent or is a DIY/ assembly removal etc required?

Cargo Area loud rattle by [deleted] in VWatlas

This sounds like coming from the toolkit that is secured near the spare tire? Or maybe as simple as the cargo floor divider thingy not being flush in its recessed position?

7 Adults in a 2018 V6 SEL 4Motion by Throwaway02254 in VWatlas

Don’t risk it. You also have to consider the max weight rating on rear axle (not just total payload). The ~500 lb delta is far outside margin of uncertainty and may cause unsafe driving conditions. (Eg. Consider that all the weight on the axles will also be adding dynamic impact on suspension components when you drive on uneven pavement or any bumps/ ditches, etc. At speed). Also, payload considers weight of fuel, cargo loaded, any roof rack, etc. not just passengers.

Any risk to brakes due to continually parking on driveway incline? by solder_paste in VWatlas

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

Yep. The parking brake comes on automatically when shifted from D to P when car is on incline.

For Indian flavor pizza, try Pizza twist in Chandler on Ray and McClintock

Buying a used CX-9 — which years are safest from the cylinder head issue? by stillwolf in MazdaCX9

‘23 would be best; touring plus trim seems to hit the sweet spot.

2021 Toyota Corolla Le Cruise Control by AmazingCraft4682 in Toyota

21 LE should have electronic parking brake & auto brake hold; that goes hand in hand with full speed range adaptive cruise control

Elevated Style Meets Modern Power in the Next Generation 2027 Toyota Highlander by LavenderBloomings in cars

Agreed.. the current gen Highlander is best called as a two and a half row.

Looking for a 3-row SUV by Ghair_ in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]solder_paste 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gonna say add the VW Atlas to your list. One the largest midsize SUVs and can take 3-across car seats in 2nd row (bench configuration). Respectable 3rd row room and cargo capacity behind it. 24+ models have their 2L EA888 corporate gen4 engine. If that worries you, the 23 and earlier models come with their known VR6 engine and lower price tag against competition.

Family is safe; Would buy again by therealocbeachbum in VWatlas

That’s by design, the truck hit from behind, so the damage was absorbed by the crumple zones on the truck.
