    Pro: I can easily drive in a tight circle because of the wheel base and the great range in the steering lock to lock.

    Con: It takes a lot of effort to turn the drive wheels.

    Pro: great off-road capabilities and support
    Con: transmission even after OTT (the transmission itself isn't the issue, its the tuning of it. If gear selection was based on torque demand and not on fuel efficiency it would be just fine)

    Persinally I think all you folks with the shudder have defective torque converters

    maybe. Idk it’s only on low rpm then once it shifts I’m good to go. Anyway I didn’t mean to hijack thread back to topic

    My mother and father bought a 4 bedroom house in Oregon for $12,000 in 1950 (the house I grew up in). When my father bought a 1995 Camry (45 years later) he always complained he paid more for the Camry than his house.

    Pros - versatility, size, reliability, off-road capability and MT option.

    cons - rear seating room and winter MPGs

    Con: the rearview mirror seems to not be shaped for this particular vehicle. As if it was designed for some other smaller vehicle

    I’m no rich by any means but I’m not dumb with my money. I’ve been a hard working dude since 11 y.o.

    Bough a 5BR 3 Bath 1974 home 7 months ago:notsure:

    At the same time I actually quit my job (thank fuck, fuck working at these big companies) and started my own thing. So definitely making less money at the moment but things are getting better and better.

    So even if you drive in S3 or S4 in the city, it still does that?

    I am not going to argue about what or why, but paying $557,900 living that far is a crime... Our house costed this much 20 minutes away from Toronto just 10 years ago, and now it's 1.5 million, my income didn't quadruple tho...
