So I was looking at the new Santa Fe/Sorento and keep cars well past 150,000 miles. The wet dual clutch transmission on those vehicles are relatively new, so no real information bad or good about reliability at >100,000 miles. Anyone have good or bad anecdotes? (can't believe someone at HQ...

Thinking of getting a Tesla Y. All of the new cars I've owned have stayed w/me or within the extended family for >180,000 miles. There is a >1 million mile Tesla out in Europe; the owner says he's gone through 4 batteries and 14 motors over those miles. Sounds like the battery longevity won't...

Replaced a TYC 800003p cabin air filter ( The old TYC was superior in every way (thickness of material, density of material) and worth the extra money. I'm going to replace the filter at 3-5,000 miles and never buy any Ecoguard product as it felt spec-ed to the absolute minimum tolerable...

bottom line: don't be me, open your deliveries ASAP. Ordered two new Mobil 1 M110-A filters from walmart.com (sold and fulfilled by Sam Walton himself) in July. As a donkey brain, I did not open the box and the box sat in the basement until this weekend. I opened the box and there was 1...
