    Friends I’ve known say land rovers are just plain fucked up engineering. Things like to replace a tire you have to disconnect the taillights and catalytic converter. Look bad ass and better off road than a jeep, but they break easily.

    Another friend owned a porche and changing the spark plugs was like 1500 bucks. Had to lower the engine to get to them so some stupid shit.

    Two points of contention. I do not think a Land Rover is better off road than a Jeep. A Rubicon is still the most capable off road machine per dollar spent you can buy. And is just straight up better than a Defender. And anything else besides a Defender is a mall crawler not an off road machine. Live axles will always beat IFS. Rubicons are geared MUCH better and have much better articulation. Approach and departure angles are a wash. Nothing beats a Rubicon off road for anywhere near the same money. I've rock crawled my entire life and seen everything there is on the trails. 30 years ago yes Defenders and FJs were as good or better. Not now.

    Second. There will be no shit talk of Porsche, even if it's true. And to be fair I think Porsche maintenance costs are in line with their overall cost. Sure they are quite a bit higher than Toyota, but these are 150-200K cars, not 30K Camry's. Talk to Ferrari guys about absurd maintenance costs. Want true insanity? Buy a Bugatti Veyron. 21K for an oil change.

    Weird soft target hit point to me.

    Porsches also feel like I’m in an episode of knight rider from 1987. In fact I was stunned by how…cheap the interior felt. I kept thinking this is really a Golf with a boob job.




    If you're bashing golf and boob jobs, I'm out.

    This thread delivers.

    If by “bash” you mean I’ve railed tight, sweaty pussy and came on fake tits on a golf course, it’s about a once a year occurrence.

    The above pic is two of the stars on golfoholics, a you tube channel. Can watch it all day long. A good looking woman who can play golf is a wonder to behold.

    I play quite a bit of golf and have a rollercoaster game. When it's on I'm a mid-low cap. When it's off I'll spend hours watching Paige Spiranac and other chick practice videos to get me smoothed back out. Golf instruction is not only free it can also be erotic.

    We? have a fat lesbo pro at our cuntry club. Thinking of taking a lesson next year.
    Fat lesbo can be erotic too. Sometimes they have smoking hot GFs. If they dontvyij can still imagine that they do.

    Every practice drill I pulled off of YouTube this year cost me multiple rounds where I struggled with whatever bad habit the drill created. Thats the risk of being self taught and why I failed in my mission to join the senior tour when I turned 50. I regularly lose ground via I'll advised or poorly implemented changes.

    All kidding aside though, I've had by far the best success with swing tip videos by Paige (we're pretty tight now so I use her first name) or other lady pros. I think I pay closet attention and rewatch more times when there are tits, bare legs and short skirts.

    Last one we had was aa 2010RX and the one before that was a 2004GX470 black w/black interior - easier to look on line than to find my pictures of it

    best vehicle I have ever owned, roomy, decent mpg (22), power, good stereo was the fancy one that I can't remember the name of.
    The RX350 got worse gas mileage if you can believe it but was great for the Mrs to cruise around in. Me, I drove my farm truck F-250

    I want one of these as a beater for Tahoe so badly. Love the look, still hold value too.
    This would be a great choice.

    It’s so fucking cold in White Wakanda it’s like driving in Utah or Colorado snow. No temp changes to thaw and refreeze as ice. Don’t even need snow tires for this powder snow.

    The Sprinter office


    My neighbor works/lives like that four days per week then flies home. Literally sleeps in his Sprinter office.

    Fuck that.


    Not the case

    A simple 60-80 mile trek around So Cal can take 3-6 hours on the road in the Greater LA area

    Being able to work while the driver drives is an incredible efficiency

    If I was still all in the game I'd have one
    I hear helicopters are the way to beat the LA traffic.
    @KobeBryantDWAGstopper true?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I was telling Mrs Nacho the other day I feel like only chicks drive Toyota Highlanders and RAV4 seems like a lesbian car, for those who don’t want to be stereotyped driving a Subaru.

    Bought the wife a 3 yr old Pilot. Great fucking car, tons of room, fits up to 8 if necessary. Put both kids through HS and dozens of soccer tournaments all over the PNW.

    Yakima/Thule box on top and ski trips are a breeze. Fast, reliable, great mileage, very fast 0 to 60, great visibility, good stereo, fucking thing goes anywhere and everything works. All I've done is change the oil, filters and changed the plugs once.

    Also found a handful of my son's Trojan wrappers behind the back seat, so it's good for that, too. Great family car, indeed.

    We test drove a pilot back in 2015. Nice ride but the driver seat is not tall people friendly. It’s designed for like 5’6” soccer mom.
    My wife is just under 5-9 and my Trojan-wrapper-littering son is 5-11. I don't drive it much, but that power seat is helladjustable.

    I was impressed with it's speed going up big hills. That thing flies up Queen Anne, Beacon and High Point. 25 mph? My ass, SDOT.
    The reduction of lanes on 35th Ave sw is criminal.

    They are both chick cars unless you're @PurpleBaze .

    4Runners and Sequoias seem more uni-sex.

    You couldn't pay me to drive a Toyota. They have all the excitement of a dishwasher.

    Actually, if they made a dishwasher I'd probably buy that from them.

    Excitement isn’t a criteria for me.

    Audi, BMW, Acura, etc doesn’t make the type of vehicle I need.

    The closest thing would be a Chevy Z71 Tahoe. Is than a exciting vehicle? I don’t think it’s better made than a Toyota.

    Don't take this the wrong way but

    Fuck you.

    The Throbber drives a Highlander.

    On second thought, the Throbber likes girls. So lesbian car works.

    I get having one Toyota for what you're describing, but two? I just have never had brand loyalty when it comes to anything.
