I had a x300 with kawi engine as I stated earlier. It was bullet proof I looked at the S back then (2014). But I recall, and I may be mistaken. I remember it "looked" cooler, but you could see the cost cutting on it. I don't mind paying a little more for quality, esp if I plan on...

With JD. Stick with the X series. 300 and up They have the tougher transmissions K54? Not the K46 crappy one you get from the box stores. (This may no longer be the case for 2026 models) When I bought my X300 a few years ago. I got the Kawasaki engine upgrade. Well worth the money...

"inherited" a 2011 E550 w/AMG sport package, has 28k on the clock, always garaged, never winter driven. only taken out on nice days despite my fierce japanese (Honda) roots, I couldn't say no.

fcp seems pretty cool. funny how when I click on the M-B link, its mainly the airmatic (suspension) stuff. apparently a common failure on these cars, not looking forward to replacement costs (hoping its just the valve box that feeds the air shocks)

perfect!

never owned German car before. ( bike yes), but never a car, and so the experience begins..... best source of German parts online (specifically M-B) ? needless to say dealer pricea are ridiculous. do third party sellers sell authentic parts at better prices?

I'm what you would consider a "car guy", and I had no idea Mazda had a full EV EDIT: did some research, only sold in california? For us, Looks like was launched in BC and Quebec first, then rest of canada, no doubt it was cancelled (MY2022 to 2024). due to its limited...

Yeah ok

if you ever want to witness a scary hornets nest and mess of an engine bay, pop the hood of maverick hybrid.

so true, learned this recently when my hot water tank crapped out. was going to buy a new tank from HD, my plumber warned me those were built cheaper. He sent me to his plumbing supplier, sure enough the same model while costing a bit more, was definitely built better. (more...

can't speak for other brands, (although I know Kubota is an exceptionsl brand thats not cheap). when it comes JD..... skip the big box store models, those are disposable. Visit a real john deere standalone, they will have the models that are built better for the real consumer...

I have a mint 1990 Miata (red) going up for sale soon. Under 70k On clock. Always garaged from new. Never ever winter driven. All original. No mods.

been saying it for years, Tesla still does it best. enter the extended Y, now you can have a 3rd row. https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a73332713/2027-tesla-model-y-l-launch-drive/

I'm pretty sure 2026 is the last year of the Escape Hybrid and all Escapes for that matter. IF it's important to you, expect resale and value hits to compound as that model didn't sell much anyway. If you are not willing to wait a year for a Toyo, the CR-V hybrid is your best...
