That last advice about "leasing the Mercedes Benz" is a flawed one, especially since at the end of the lease, someone else will have to own it. The more sensible advice is to avoid as much of the electronic doo-dads as possible, when buying a Mercedes, and the car will reward you with 100s of 1000s of miles of absolutely pleasurable ownership. My ML320, when I donated it at 245K miles, was absolutely perfect, reliability wise. The basic (non-airmatic) Double-wishbone front and Multi-link rear suspension, with the coil-springs, is fabulous and will go for a million miles with no problems whatsoever. The fundamental drive-train, will last for ever too. Skip the airmatic. Skip the E-ABC (Electronic-Active Body Control) suspension. Skip the "soft closing doors". Skip some of the other complex electro-mechanical bits, and you have a fundamentally sound car that will go on for a million miles, with regular maintenance and upkeep.

Just bought this truck from Carvana! Love it! Traded in my 2005 Tundra, which I loved, but wanted a newer truck! The one on this video is the exact color of mine! My tundra had 225,000 mikes on it, still ran like new, but needed some body work! Love my new Taco tho!!!
@mckricks15 күн бұрын
The plastics should still be better even though it's a "20k" truck. Old Ford Rangers still hold up in that regard. Also, the remarks you made about the lariat version don't make sense with how you configured your truck and the costs associated.

So the electric motor can produce 125hp / 190 torque by itself!! So Ford really played it conservative on the components to keep that blended 191hp. Also the “eCVT” has 1/3 the moving parts of a normal trans so that’s also great. Funny (scary) so many YT videos mis-identify the hybrid battery as the one under the rear seat (which is for accessories!). Last question - Eco & Normal feel like a CVT but how is my 24 Lariat Hybrid in SPORT mode shifting gears like a performance car?! 🏁

@TestDrivenTV Dude you are misinformed. This is touchscreen for Android auto. The rest is controlled with the wheel so you can keep your eyes on the road where they should be. Most high end cars are like this. Only the cheap cars are full touchscreen always. That is a bad design.

I never understood their thought process on the interior color… it was orange and now an ugly blue. Whoever made these decisions needs to be fired. I’m still gonna buy it but the first modification will be changing the interior color that would not match most colors. Imagine getting that beautiful green color to just walk into an ugly blue inside.

This is a nicely designed and beautiful vehicle but like always with every Hyundai or Kia they can't design a front end to save their souls that's my only gripe with the G90 it's a hit and miss just like with the Equus it looked amazing from the sides interior and from the rear end but once you look at it from the front you say to yourself they could have designed it better

Regenerative braking relies on the driving motor rather than the generator. For both HF-45 or HF-55 ECVT.
