i don't understand car makers.  just make the seats go back farther, what does it cost you?  if you ever have someone sitting behind you, you can just pull it forward.  but make the front seats go back till the hit the rear seats for the 99.99% of the time there isn't.

If you drive slow a diesel Ram is the best room/mileage option

probably not for me, but it is pretty impressive they can get that good of mileage dragging around tons of steel.

I’m liking what this thread has going with sys. I don’t want to take away from it, but I do want to pose a question of my own.

How many miles do I have left on my Honda Accord? Currently at 150,000

That backseat at one time had 3 car seats in it. It has already been defiled.

My financial advisor who is 28 wants to get one of these.  He drives an Accord right now and it only a few yrs old, but he's been in a few accidents with it.  He likes his Accord but think's it will be more valuable for trade in with the low miles he has on it.  He told me that even thou the BMW is hot AF, the insurance rate is lower since it is in the family car/SUV class.  He works and lives in Dallas, so he needs a responsive car to commute to/from work.  DBT, thanks for the link cause now I know what he was talking about.   BTW, that dealership is aggressive; as soon as I clicked on the site a pop up requested my location and offered to chat.

poor gas mileage.


i'm kinda hanging around waiting to see if kia or hyundai will add a hybrid version of their sorento/santa fe models for 2021.  ford already makes one that maybe decent, but i dunno about ford.

and i also just can't decide btwn the two car - good gas mileage sedan plus a 4x4 plan like i currently have or the one car - awd crossover that kinda does both plan.
