"The San Miguel County Sheriff’s Office said that the driver had attempted to take his Kia Telluride up Black Bear Road, despite people in the area advising him not to. "
Asshats will be asshats, especially on Black Bear Pass. Guy is lucky he didn't end up rolling down.
The dude was in...
Can add me to the 13.X mpg club for the most part. Freeway speeds out here (75 to 85 mph often) really do a number on your mileage though.
I have run a few tanks on road trips on more state routes and rural driving where I was seldom over 65 to 70 mph. Definitely see the potential to get 17+...
I saw that one too but didn't reply. I wasn't sure if it was sarcasm. :)
When I consider a 420 hp twin turbo V6 3.0 gets only 1 mpg or so worse than my 4Runner did, I guess it's pretty good. Everything is relative ;).
For what it's worth, my Raptor felt pretty sporty going down the new I17 flex lanes last Sunday coming back into Phoenix (drop several thousand feet of elevation through a ton of turns).
Maybe not quite as sporty as it would have been in my old Golf R, but...
The wide wheel base is black magic...

I'll probably end up in jail at some point, but have enjoyed doing that immensely when cut off at night a few times :).
My guess is they cannot be worse. Inherently the painted top should solve the delamination problems that seem to plague the MIC (unless they end up with their own issues). I haven't heard of anyone with an issue yet on a painted top (or the similar Heritage top).
I know my Bronco Raptor is going to be great for the upcoming zombie apocalypse. Need to figure out how to mount some blades on the front to mow them down. Chainsaws would even be better.
