WHY ARE THEY SOFA KING CHEAP?!
It's gonna fall apart by 50K miles. you got a year or two to enjoy it then it's to the scrap yard
>>24221347Consumer reports is unironically fine, their system is just weighted such that Alfa score poorly. And you probably will have to take the Alfa in somewhat often, it just won't be anything involved or that you'll need to shell out for.
Have an ‘18 QV w 25k miles, no issues. Just weird electronic shit but I haven’t had to take it in. There’s a factory reset thing you can do and it seems to fix the weird shit.
FCA garbage
>>24221589>no issues>just the electronics are shit>20k milessounds like an absolute piece of shit

Thread is made because OP is a faggot who doesn't know dick about cars made in the last 10 years and has been forced into the market for one.The used car guide is great but there's still a bunch i'm lost on. Differences between brands and what they're known for issue wise, how to spot a lemon when the carfax says everythings peachy, and of course how differences between vehicles impacts their reliability for everyday driving. There's obviously no best but when it comes to something that will see everyday use, what may break and how easy it is to fix is high on the list of things to know.Currently looking between a Mitsubishi, Kia, and Volkswagen. not for style, not for performance, but for cost and mileage.
If you need a wagon to go from a to b, get a toyota
>>24221028They're all up for consideration, im not locking out any brands but those were the ones that looked most attractive by mileage and total cost, there's a pair of Nissan's i saw that looked good A Versa and Sentra model both 2018. >>24221378been looking at auto trader 20,000 bucks maximum.
>>24221006Any reason they last so long? i've been told they struggle to reach freeway speeds but cant verify since the person who said it based that off the horsepower of the 3 cylinder engine their experience with a low horsepower ford.
>>24221671mitsubishi specializes in making tools, and in engineering durable goods which actually prioritize durability. they put a decent amount of R+D into the car up front, but all the development was in the actual engineering - it obviously wasn't in the interior or styling.when the money goes to the actual car part of your car, the car runs welltl;dr they cheaped out on everything else, so you're paying decent money for a good little platform instead of decent money for a decent platform and decent window dressing
>>24221695That actually helps a fair bit. Though the matter of the low Horsepower and 3 cylinder is a bit concerning.

>>24221327the only thing open later than 11pm in these old western towns are the gun ranges and the mosques
Our meet lineup even got a flyby by some camo'd out prototype carsI thought they were Poobarus but now I'm not sure, looks like some kinda new RAV4 with a solid continuous light bar across the back?
>>24221366wasnt there for that, fucking hyundai kia likes those stupid styles but im not sure why they would test on 395
any interest in going to the actual time trial event next year on the airstripit's nasa sanctioned autox in may, just need a helmet and your car has to pass tech. gonna be a lot of normies but they'll be fast normies
How was your drive today, /o/?Mine was suboptimal
>>24221136I had a small piece of shit 98 ranger. It was a small rwd truck that never had anything in the bed. Never had a problem in rain at any speed or curve for years, and I lived in Florida and didn't replace my tires all that frequently. The only time it was noticeable was when simultaneously turning and accelerating from a stop.

may all your accidents be ones you can walk away from

>aftermarket header and exhausthow bad are these? I read recently here that it might cause problems if theres no tuneyes I'd prefer stock but it'd take a while to source and install oem parts so is it really that bad if I daily it like this?
>>24221492If it’s good shit it shouldn’t hurt reliability at all, don’t be a pussy.
>>24221492It likely won't cause problems, but it just does nothing for the car when you slap that stuff on an economy car that was tuned for certain flow dynamics from the factory that have now been changed, you'll need to have it tuned if you want to gain anything.

Here's you're Cadillac bro.
Here’s you’re Cadillac bro.>cannot spell for shit
>>24221208the best known lawyer in alabama has bought two: one because he wanted an escalade, the second because the first didn't have a sunroof but he didn't want to wait
>>24221208My Dad owns a Cadillac, but he bought it purely because he's a boomer who wanted a Cadillac specifically because the badge was prestigious when he grew up, he even acknowledged the other cars we test drove like the Continental, S90, and Genesis were much better value for money.
>>24221623childhood dreams are powerful motivatorsat least he's buying this relatively competent generation of cadillacs, even if they're nowhere near their midcentury glory days
>>24221169give you a hint, government motors is ruled by a woman
it is 2021>wtf happened>everything is either an SUV trying to be a sports car or a pickup trying to be an SUV>even the fucking pony car was turned into an SUV>reverse cameras>infotainment systems>apple car play>wifi subscriptions>computers out the asshole>every other car commercial features a woman driver>purists fighting over what little crumbs of the automotive industry they have leftThen end is nigh, /o/tists. Personally, I blame soccer moms and Karens that make themselves at home in every car they crawl into
>>24220656>>everything is either an SUV trying to be a sports car or a pickup trying to be an SUV>This is a good thing, cars are becoming more and more utility based and no longer do you have to choose for given applications as so many cars can multirole.>>24219405

>>24217763they're prawns, subhuman
>>24220909It wouldn't be so bad of it was actually successful at being a Jack of all trades kind if car, but its not. They don't handle well, they are ugly, they don't have as much storage capacity as a SUV, they don't handle larger loads like a pickup, they don't go offroad well, they don't go fast, they are packed to the brim with electronics and safety feature that are just waiting to fail, are unnecessary and ruin the fun of a ride, and they are all designed to fail after warranty expires. It's literally an appliance. As much as it's an overused term, its a vehicle with no soul. Just one of many cars made with no distinct features, nothing that sets it out from the crowd. When shopping for a crossover, you literally just choose from what badge you like and what interior you like. They are all the exact same.
>>24221598I would buy a molester van before I would buy an SUV, at least a molester van has some real estate on the side for custom murals, not that I could afford it

>>24221591It’s white people doing this, you inbred retard.
Or am I completely out of touch with reality? The target demographic is ostensibly different. It's aimed at European competitors and they replaced the drivetrain layout from FR to MR
They've been wanting to go mid-engine ever since the Corvette was a thing. Adapting with the times and taking on Europe has always been what Corvette was.

>>24220159Anon. The C8 doesn't exist. You're hallucinating again. Come out of your room so you can take your meds.
>>24220177At the track most local to me on road car days there are more than a few c7's and c6's that race pretty regularly I know lot's are garage queens but not all the time.

A BMW X3 is a Pontiac Aztek. Pontiac were ahead of their time with that ugly fagmobile, and now everyone drives one.
>>24209458That's no way to announce yourself, anon.
>>24221321True. Give an Aztek a lift and some 19 inch wheels and it will blend in with the other CUVs
