[@timothycheuvront8284]

I'm in Texas and the last couple of vehicles i've owned have come with heated front seats. The ONLY thing I've ever used them for is to keep take out warm on the passenger seat lol! Very useful!

[@springertube]

@@timothycheuvront8284 In Arizona, we use them all the time cold mornings and evenings we get here even in the desert winter. It's not for nothing "cold desert nights" has been used in literature going back hundreds of years. I've never have quite understood people saying that heated seats or steering wheels are not needed south of Canada or south of our northern-tier states. In our state's "high country" - which comprises some of our taller mountains and the Colorado Plateau or about a third of the state, like many parts of the Rockies including their southern reach, it regularly gets below 0°F. Our record in AZ is -40°F, with some unofficial accounts below that. A remote official weather station in eastern AZ, now gone, used to trade off fairly regularly with Gunnison, CO, for the low in the lower 48.

[@ronhudson3730]

My first car was a 1975 Honda Civic bought and driven in and around Montreal and it had front wheel drive. With snow tires it would go anywhere. I did have to add salt bags to add weight to the rear while driving in the townships

[@AdamvsMaximvs]

You guys are totally right on the winter tires vs AWD. AWD is great, but I used to drive a 2010 MX-5 GT with Blizzaks year round in Edmonton and never had issues.

[@knarefyi6793]

Awd in winters is just another level, those who know - know. Braking might be the same but you accelerate just as many times you break if not more. All you get with an FWD when Accelerating is wheel spin. Try it out- take the exact same car such as a Mazda 3 that has FWD and AWD options. Put the same winter tires and drive around in a city with different types of road - such as hilly roads, sharp turns/ curvy fast roads etc. let’s see how the FWD drive performs.

[@billurban1581]

In my RWD Dakota I prepare for snow with a barrier behind the wheel wells, behind which I load 500 lbs of weight, Never had an issue.

[@KenCheng]

regarding the Ford Escape question, hybrid vs PHEV... one factor that doesn't get mentioned enough is the living situation... If I lived in a house with my own garage or at least my own driveway, I can plug it in when I get home and in the morning all set to go. Great! But I don't live in a house, I live in a highrise and only recently the building added two whole charging spots in the guest parking lot... I would say more often then not, when I drive by... at least one spot or both are being used. Which means, I would have to time around others, and then I'd have to go down and move my car when it's done. Sometimes, after I get home, I get comfy... I'm settled in for the night... I would really hate to have to go back down to move my car. To me, it's just an inconvenient... Even worse for those that have to go out of their way even more to charge. A regular hybrid would be the better choice for some people.

[@gregholloway2656]

Thanks for the great information and the laughs over the lip-syncing! 👍

[@stuartaaron613]

I'm in Florida, and my Mazda CX-50's have come with heated front seats. In January and February I've found a few cool mornings where the heated seats are nice. Otherwise not needed. AWD, on the other hand, is still better than FWD with traction control.

[@billurban1581]

Better traction, yes. But 6% less mpg (frictional losses), and more complexity and maintenance costs over the life of the vehicle.

[@threeohnine]

I'm the guy with the Q7 cross shopping the Lexus TX, GLE, and a new Q7. I currently can get over 25-28 mpg highway so the mileage is better than the Acura MDX Type S, which I hear doesn't hit the EPA estimate of 25 mpg. But I will take it for a test drive, especially now that they have the new center stack.

[@sugarhog1938]

Gle has the best value. A new q7 is 126k too expensive. TX sticker price is cheaper but Lexus interest rates and markups are very expensive. A base Gle is only 84k, the phev is 87k, fully option doesn’t even past 115k

[@10OF9OFBORG]

The Sedan are better gas mileage than SUV if you study carefully. I had ride on civic before. It’s roomy and quiet but the problem is I can’t get in and out easily than the small or subcompact SUV. Large SUV is like climbing. Great show Andrea! ☕️☕️

[@raymondswenson1268]

I live in eastern Washington. In the winter, to travel on Interstate 90 over Snoqualmie Pass to get to Seattle, the highway patrol requires a vehicle to have All Wheel Drive and Winter Rated Tires (WinterTires or All Weather Tires--NOT All Season Tires) so you don't get stuck and block the road.

[@ryannatividad3137]

While it could be selling well enough in other corners of the US/Canada than I've seen in Texas or California,the new Prius seems cool and not selling as well as it could be. It seems like a good, car-like, futuristic, and more efficient value than the RAV4 hybrid, Corolla Cross hybrid, Honda CRV hybrid, etc. The only A to B hybrid car in that price bracket that would tempt me away from the Prius would be the new Civic hatchback hybrid or maybe the new Camry. I think American/Canadian buyers prefer crossovers, but also likely prefer the more conservative styling found in cars like the Camry or CRV.

[@litchips]

Maybe it's different in Northeast but here in California, many people get overconfident driving to Tahoe on all season tires because they have AWD and highway patrol waves them through, and get into all sorts of trouble they would have avoided with humble FWD + snow chains on same tires. I have a Subaru, and I took it to Tahoe on all seasons once, and it was sketchy AF when the road got icy. Before that I took my FWD Maxima on snow chains there, and it was more hassle, but much more confidence inspiring.

[@JURASSICEDITS09]

I drove around in snow in a 1991 Toyota 2wd pikup for years then a 1993 Subaru impreza hach awd for years in the snow and now a 07 chevy 2500 4x4. I've went all same place in the snow with all of em .Got stuck in in all of em . The problem was never the "snow " every time it was the sheet of ice just under the snow . Awd will not save you or do anything for you at speed . it helps you get going sometimes thats it .

[@Andre-cj3ec]

According to many reviews the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 is one of the top choices for snow tires. I just bought the SUV version. The Michelin X-Ice, Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 and Continental Viking Contact 7 are also well rated.

[@Andre-cj3ec]

There is no one best tire. Each recipe is a compromise. The best tire on ice might not be the best to prevent hydroplaning. The Nokians I bought are especially well rated for ice and apparently have excellent rolling resistance, which should help with EV range / fuel efficiency

[@antoniocognato5023]

i like the blazer RS, Acura MDX and honda passport, pilot, AND 2025 nissan pathfinder! ALL V6!

[@ronr8800]

I just bought the Michelin cross climate 2 tires and did limited research on them before purchasing and they are all WEATHER with the 3peak snowflake on the sidewall. You will not find a quieter better all weather tire with reasonable longevity then these. The competition with tire manufactures are finally coming out with almost identical looking but not proven, Michelin are the pioneers of this unique tire. Michelin has a $120 off for a set of 4 at the moment until December. I,m very happy with mine while driving my Subaru 2024 Forester, they are even quieter than my Bridgestone Ecopia 225/60R17 tires that came with my Subaru by 1-2 decibels on my hand held audio meter.

[@VideoPhone-op4er]

Remember snowy region roads are sweeped clean by local govt agencies and keep the road safe for all kinds of cars. However, places that do not get snow often, the county agencies will not have equipment to clear roads that fast and that’s why ppl use chains or 4wd for mobility. Something to think about 🤓

[@richardmichael59]

“Snowy region roads are sweeped clean”? Where does this exist? How do they do this when I am driving in a snowstorm,?🤷🏼‍♂️

[@willoverkill8461]

Go for the Escape PHEV instead of regular hybrid, they're a terrific deal! We got our 2022 when we went shopping for new (it was too good a deal to pass up) and my neighbor loved it so much he just got a new 2024, base model no options; the $5k package is silly stuff, you don't need it, the base model you still get heated seats, power liftgate, power driver seat etc. Plus I think you can still get employee pricing and in BC it's $7000 rebate total from both govs, so it's like $10k off plus 0.9% financing. Used Rav4 Primes with 100k kms cost more to buy!

[@willoverkill8461]

And yes the AWD thing but it's not a big deal, we previous had a Flex and then a Town&Country minivan, both were front wheel drive only and did great in winter with winter tires. We've put some Cross Climate 2s on the Escape and will chance it with our winters here on Van Island.

[@raybarton7725]

Hello there. Enjoy your show. I feel a good topic to dedicate a show to would be the challenge of navigating the service department at dealerships and your independent repair shop. For example, a repair shop indicated that your rotors are pitted, suggesting that they should be changed out. Or your ball joints are 1/64 of an inch out. Only to determine they are well within tolerances. Shocks are another example. Not everyone is buying new vehicles, so a show dedicated to these types of issues would be great to hear your opinions on. No disrespect to female operators/daughters, but I have encountered these issues both myself and my daughter. Making a poor decision with this type of misleading trend can be expensive. Thank you for your considerations.

All PHEVs are underrated. Best of both worlds for anyone who drives longer trips. Electric only in the city.

Lets be serious most PHEV owners love their vehicles because of the electric component and not the gas engine. A long range EV with fast charging of 15 mins from 20%-80% will be better! Cheaper and a lot less maintenance!

You have described my experience exactly. Last ICE got 29.7 mpg. This 455hp PHEV sedan, since Nov. ‘22, 106 mpg, about $30/mo to charge the 41 mile battery. Last weekend did 170 miles in each of two days, full charge each day, burned 6 gal, 56 mpg.

Some of the bullet sweating is definitely manufactured but we also had more deaths per 100,000 in the 70's than we do now, so maybe some of the concern is legit and has helped make us a bit safer.

Depends where you live, in Saskatchewan I had winter tires on my 2022 civic but had to sell it as although I had traction the car is so low to the ground i was hung up or tearing off the bottom plastic

[@leonchan4325]

Best car that no one bought? First thing I think of is Kia Stinger. By the way, it's gone for good. Its smaller contemporary, the Genesis G70, will also be done next year. Neither G70 or Stinger are rumoured to have successors (ICE or EV). The latest Kia plans have even shown that there will be no EV sedan larger than the upcoming Kia EV4. For at least some time, Kia at least had plans to produce a mid to large-size EV sedan, but there was subsequent evidence showing that plan changed.

[@dcb113]

I think the KiA K4 (replacing the Forte) base and gt will do well.

[@scottstephenson9312]

Still a mystery to me why Hyundai, a company strong in hybrids and BEV, does not offer those powertrain choices in the Santa Cruz. They misread the market with the Santa Cruz, and I look forward to the full redesign. Hyundai never misses twice in a row.

I agree about needing AWD. We finally bit the bullet and decided on a new vehicle. We bought the Acadia with FWD (pickup tomorrow 10/21). Every $ counts in todays economy. Considering we live in northern Ohio we do get our share of snow but not Quebec levels. We've always been fine with FWD until now, do we really need AWD?

[@carlhovde6846]

Does it make any sense to spend 40k on a new car to save money on gas

[@rotaxrider]

Thats my argument too. The math doesn’t add up. If I’m driving an older vehicle that gets a combined mileage of 9 or 10 litres for example especially if the vehicle is paid your not going to recoup that money. It’s an expensive way to get a fuzzy warm feeling when you’re fueling up.

[@SinghN2338]

It really depends on the amount of driving being done. If you drive 20k plus a year it might be worth it. Also if you are in the market to buy something new or a newer used vehicle then this would be an option since you are going to spend a good amount of money anyways. I'm in the market and am comparing every option I can. I get around 10km/L on my 2001 Honda CRV . With the Civic Hybrid that would be double at around 20km/L cutting my fuel cost by half. I tend to keep my vehicles for 10 to 12yrs so the fuel savings would bring the cost of ownership down. The more you drive, the more you save with the hybrids and evs. Do the math and see if the amount of driving you do and the fuels cost will be worth paying the premium for these Hybrids and EVs. If I did less than 10k of driving a year, then I probably wouldn't go for a hybrid and look for other options.

[@rotaxrider]

@@SinghN2338 There’s a Buy or Keep calculator online but I never used it. But if I’m driving 20 000 kms a year payment free with a manageable insurance payment I can’t see any cost savings in buying new

[@SenecaRaine]

It's only worth it if you're already shopping for one, and drive either enough per year or are planning to keep it for an extended period of time. There is a slight upgrade on depreciation too, but I wouldn't plan around that usually. If those things apply for you, though, it's well worth it.

[@rotaxrider]

@@SenecaRaine I agree. If you need one but buying just for driving something new because it gets better mileage or is newer isn’t a good financial decision.

AWD for a sedan - well Sonata base is fantastic in Canada and it is a real system that is always ready to "get in there"; and they say darn good fuel economy. But sedans - it is always ... always the ground clearance and not the lack of traction 98% of the time (usually when you are in the soup already and extra traction just made it worse - I saw someone trying to back out of the drift they got deep into and "oh no" their front bumper came right off.

@1:10 i need to point out that the statement about FWD and winter tires needs to include context of where you live. the slushy and wet snow plus all the hills in Vancouver makes non-all wheel drive cars with winter tires inadequate at times. when it gets cold enough, the snow is powdery and there’s much more grip and that’s when literally any type of car with winter tires would do fine. source: drove FWD, RWD, and AWD cars with winter tires and the difference is massive

There are not a lot of posts on Ford Escape forums, but of those posts, there seemed to be an excessive number of problems. Seems like they are hits or misses.
