I've got "pucks" for every single vehicle I own. It's a common automotive practice unfortunately.

The 911 Dakar is a perfect example of Form over Function. I think they are dumb, and I generally like 911s.

It's just a smart decision to offer it. They have a huge customer base that likes to go to the mountains in the winter. That rating is the difference between chain carry requirements or not.

Go for it the BMW or the Volvo. That's great to have choice, but my point still stands, that the only reason you are shopping those vehicles is due to limited choices. Or do you believe 4Runner buyers considered a Volvo or BMW gas car first? What about Subaru owners? They shopping BMWs?

Suspension is tricky business, especially with the dampers on the R1 platform - 3 electronic valves per shock, air spring, hydraulic roll control, an absolute tuning nightmare with all those knobs to turn. In comparison the R2 will be riding on conventional coil springs, appear to be single...

This! The R1T suspension is absolutely incredible! Anyone saying otherwise is a fool. I had a nice drive involving Sport/Low over a twisty mountain road, then AP/mid on the highway, then switched to Rally to eat up a rough dirt road - it's magical.

Now it's saying 4:30 CT, the website just said 4pm a minute ago..

At 2k miles per year, you will be looking at the vehicle more than driving it, so it doesn't really matter what you choose, enjoy it! I spent a good 400 miles in a newer Jeep GC 4XE and I could not come to terms with the clunky drivetrain. Sometimes electric, sometimes gas (depending on how you...
