Lets talk about new vehicles

95 is avoided by me as much as possible. And I think the Baltimore Beltway is just as bad. People think they are playing a video game.

Absolutely crazy...

Absolutely crazy...

And lots of fruitcakes on I-70. All the car ads touting performance feed into it also.

The headlights in my Civic are terrible. So much so that I try to never drive it at night if I’m on roads with no street lights. It’s that bad My Corvette has awesome xenon lights that have no problem on those dark roads.

Glad I'm not the only one...
Honda needs to get their act together.. My first 86 Acura Integra had great lights because they were the pop up style and big... like the Vette

Being totally serious....I travel 900 miles each way and the only thing I really worry about is surviving the DC Baltimore area... I really at times don't think I'll make it.

Bad headlights certainly don't help

I totally agree. I just want out of that crazy area. I think it affects some legislators.

Whats the better road trip vehicle, Accord Hybrid or Maverick?

The Accord for the only one reason -the seats.
The Maverick seats did not fit me..
Back pain set in rather quickly but otherwise I'd go with the Maverick
One day I'll get another and get the driver's seat custom made.
@ARCOgraphite agreed......

 

[Zee09]

The Maverick had great headlights, a quiet drive, phenomenal mpgs and interior room... For some reason people looked at you as common trash in it...not sure why..

 

[Zee09]

Mitsubishi 14.3 mile drive thru run...
Not bad...
Now the Accord has an absolutely huge trunk and its amazing what you can put in there....

Thinking it was the driver.

Don't you have some GTL to install?

 

[Zee09]

Since I became a @AutoMechanic fashionista and am growing tired of Patmans Corvette this and that. He sounds like some loser bragging about Mitsubishis.

I decided to step it up....

New '26 1LT for $63k, $11k off MSRP. Les Stanford Chevrolet (Dearborn, MI).

Wrong thread lol.

I seen a Japanese engineer boasting how Japan built vehicles have superior build quality over the USA built models...

I had many Japanese vehicles but speaking on what I know I am no UAW groupie but they built- assembled better Mitsubishi Sports than the Japanese . It surprised me but its true...

Rattle free without any trips to the dealer etc... Japan like Germany live off of reputations from yesteryear.

Green! Love it.

I thought they could not / would not discount Corvettes? That’s why only @Patman can afford one.

Our 2019 VW Tiguan and our new 2025 Ford Escape were built in Mexico. No rattles or ill fitting parts or panels.

I remember back in 2015 I had a insurance claim for hail damage and this adjuster came out saying my 13 Accord would definitely have better paint than my new Ford truck...he learned a lesson..
That year Accord had paint so thin you could see primer in places and Ford from 2011 on for my vehicles the paint has been great.

The Mexican Maverick was well done and my 16 C-Max was stellar too..

Corvettes are not a hot item these days...huge discounts especially in Miami... Great cars but hard to sell the last few years.

You would look great in one. And you’d be able to easily outrun WRK too.
