Its never a surprise why people buy Mazdas because the CX-30 might be most fun to drive subcompact utility under $30k

Awkward because I was told by a Nissan rep last month that a 2026 Altima is coming? Lol

I got a desk in the mail from them that didn’t have a whole bracket so it could legit be missing

True. But it does seem like many people I talk to don’t buy the β€œrational” car, they buy the car they wanted instead and they’re willing to pay a higher price for it.

I’d argue negative equity plays a factor as well.

Idk how anyone is comfortable with a car payment that large

Make sure you still get there on time though. That’s a short enough delay that they could allocate a new plane and it go back to normal departure time. I’ve seen people almost miss flights because of that lol

Etsy, Poshmark, & EBay are my favorites to do this with

I love when I put something in an online cart and let it sit there for like a day and then the vendor gives me a coupon

Sometimes when they do that they cannot make anything funnier than what actually happened lmao

Genuinely how does SNL spoof what happened today

I liked that the cargo floor could be lowered for even more space! And even the back seat was super roomy!

Yeah, those touch controls that Kia likes to use are not my favorite either

This weekend, our review of the latest Kia Sportage airs on MotorWeek! The best part? It’s a lot of my voice and face giving you all the details!

Some of you know we have been adding in other talent to do some reviews and it was my turn at the plate!

Hope you all enjoy!

You wouldn’t happen to live near a MicroCenter? I bought a prebuilt from them like 3 years ago and it’s been great

Yeah it kinda small tho

Other trims to come which we expect to undercut that $65k starting price. That’s for the Moab grade (comparable to a Wrangler’s Rubicon)
