I traded in my 2018 6 spd Golf R for the last 6 spd (2024 Golf R). I have the Pretoria rims (like my 2018 and love them). I love my new one! Not sure what all the negativity is about but I love it! Have seen some videos on the 2025 and I’m not impressed with some of those changes. Infotainment looks like an after thought on it; R badge on the door…ugh and illuminating the logo is just cheesy. Nevermind the fact that it only comes in automatic….sad!!!

Thanks for your thoughts on the Golf R. The 2025 will be interesting. We will have to see it first before making a full judgement. Having no manual option is very sad. Hopefully it’ll be made up for in other ways. Thanks for watching.

VW responded to what customers like. The Pretoria wheels are iconic to the the Golf R. I have a 7.5 R and although I like the those wheels the Pretorias on the Mk7 look much much better. I don't like the black paint that has been the trend on alloy wheels. The Prets are all one color, looks much cleaner. Love the look of Prets on the Mk8.

I found out the 2024 Venza would be the last year, so I bought an XLE model. What a really nice car. I've had RAV4s before the Venza, which was really nice too. However, the Venza is fancier, and sportier looking and more expensive looking. Like a Lexus. The ride is smoother than a RAV4, there is less noise too. I really like my new Venza!

The Protoria wheels might work if they are finished in black. As is they look dated, and VW should have kept the wheels they had on the 2023s. They are switching to new forged wheel in 2025 which also looks best in black. And you said Mythos perfectly. It’s called (me-thos). Greek word for myth.

One thing people don't know, because GM is using there own Google interface. You don't physically have to touch the buttons on the screen. Such as Google Maps. All you have to say is hey google maps. Voice command controls a lot of functions that you physically do not have to touch. Also, the battery range if you program navigation for a destination maps will show you what your battery range will be at but. As you are driving to that destination, the vehicle will recalculate the battery range and you will have gained four percent by the time you reach your destination.

My Dad restored and drove a 1927. He was good at driving it because when he was 11, someone gave him a worn out, used up 1914 T. He learned a lot about Model T repair out of sheer necessity. He and his brothers and friends drove it all over creation. The bare minimum of rusty remains still lie in a ditch on our old homestead property. They mark the terminus of its last ever joy ride. 🥸👍👀✅

The only reason the people at Motormouth got for the weird wired requirement in previous versions of the Tucson had to do with the navigation. They were fighting with google over which company's version of navigation would be the default when android auto/carplay was enabled. No official press releases on it were ever given but when Hyundai did make the google version the default in the top trim Tucsons then suddenly the wireless was also enabled. Also I see we have had Bald Brad, Scottish Brad, and Female Brad before and this time you tricked me! I thought we were getting Invisible Brad but instead we got Ninja Brad. Thanks for the video!

Well I bought a 2023 ES Outlander because I didn't need the 3rd row & in exchange for that, I get a full size full time spare wheel. I'm in Australia & we have a lot of remote country here, so this is a preferable feature here. Though it doesn't feel like it, it has oodles of power and gets up to speed surprisingly quickly. You won't have idiots trying to pass you when the speed limit changes, because they simply can't do that without looking like idiots. The car doesn't feel like it is going as fast as it actually is. This can be a trap at first, so watch your speed. Maybe it's because of sitting up so high or the suspension making the road very smooth, or perhaps because it is so stable & hangs onto the corners with such assurance & ease. Very noticeable more stable & relaxed cornering than any car I have previously owned. The one bad thing I have found so far is the tow bar is inches lower than it needs to be and its design limits departure angle to a ridiculous amount. It bottoms out on very ordinary suburban driveways. I have had a tow bar on every car I owned over the last 50 years. This is the worst one yet, worse than my Kia Cerato, worse than my saggy VR commodore etc. Total design fail on the tow bar, it could easily have mounted the tongue 2-3 inches higher as there is no structure in the way, only a bit of plastic bumper to cut out. I would have preferred if the roof wasn't as tall, as that would have made loading roof racks oh so much easier for smaller people like me. My wife & I had looked at earlier models thinking oh that's OK. So the height of the 2023 model was a surprise we had not realised.
