• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Enjoy. Sorry, I don’t have the digital version of the WSJ, so this is the best you’re gonna get from me.

Not a glowing article but overall pretty good. Doesn't handle like a sports sedan and doesn't get hybrid fuel economy...Big surprise.

 
How about uploading a pdf for us? You have to sign it to read it.

7-8 passenger SUV does not handle like a sports SEDAN... That’s the kinda of insight been waiting for! Is it me or this SUV now is supposed to be everything drivers have ever asked for in one car!!
 
Reviewer is a bit of a smug prick. Some reviewers are like that with all their reviews, some save it for special occasions. I haven't read enough of his work to know where he lies.

Seemed like he was really bothered by the fuel efficiency. I think that is almost bottom of the list for most of us, especially since it takes non premium gas.
 
Yes, I wouldn’t trade the smoothness of a V6 for spasmodic turbo engine with better gas mileage. Anything this big that averages 20 mph is good enough for me.

A couple years ago Dan Neil wrote that he was going to hold out for a Rivian to replace his aging Honda Odyssey, claiming that all gasoline cars were basically dead and old technology. I guess he is still holding out. He also claims a manual transmission doesn’t add anything to the driving experience. Me and my six-speed FR-S take issue with that!
