Borrowed @superkoolkeith's #vw #tiguan to play around in the snow with Charlie, it was surprisingly capable for a #softroader #westwycombe https://www.instagram.com/p/Btl01MggPmF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ae9w9s9e5j8d

90K kms run Renault Koloes came to us for front suspension and steering rack replacement.👨‍🔧 Fun fact: This quirky looking, premium soft-roader from the French car company is based on the same platform as the Nissan X-Trail. . . . . #renault #nissan #koleos #xtrail #softroader #sharedplatform #carlosghosn #scandal #renaultnissan #suspension #steeringrack #mechanic #autoshop #fixingcars #garage #manandmachine #justkeepdriving (at Hyderabad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCndkP5JCSg/?igshid=1dvn27bnlufai

Glad I bought that Outlander GT...

Once again our friends at iSeeCars, have crunched some data to find out which SUVs are likely to be kept for 15 years or more. This year’s list doesn’t look terribly different than the one from last year and is basically dominated by only two brands.

The SUV that people keep the longest is the Toyota Highlander. When analyzing the list to determine the SUVs people keep the longest, iSeeCars identified 12 vehicles that were at least 1.1 times greater than the vehicle category average for the vehicle category. Eleven of the top vehicles are Japanese, while the remaining vehicle is Korean.

The top seven SUVs on the list are all Japanese vehicles that also appear on the overall list of vehicles owners are most likely to keep for 15 years or more, and four of the remaining five vehicles are also Japanese while the ninth-ranked Hyundai Santa Fe stands out as the lone Korean vehicle.

Ranked tenth is the Mitsubishi Outlander. As an owner of the Mitsubishi Outlander GT, the feature-packed vehicle really delivers combined with the affordability it offers.

For less than $35,000 you get a 3.0L V6 AWD SUV that utilizes a modified version of Mitsubishi’s amazing Super All Wheel Control (S-AWC) AWD system from the highly popular Mitsubishi Evo. The SUV can seat 5 passengers comfortably but has the ability to carry up to 7 passengers. 

It comes with all the bells and whistles, and a whole slew of tech features from LED adaptive headlights to Apple CarPlay/Android Auto to the 360-degree birds-eye camera, as well as features such as forward collision mitigation, and lane departure.

One of my closest childhood friends was the cement truck that appeared at the end of my street for a single afternoon when I was six. My parents were hippies, and didn't believe that their kids should mingle with the other kids. Not when they could instead be learning useful self-sufficiency skills, like stocking cans of beans and fabricating crude crystal radios to wait for the Message. Well, now I'm really good at fixing things, and that cement truck is probably in a scrapyard somewhere. There's a moral in there, but I'll be damned if I can find it.

The point I'm trying to get at is: kids love construction vehicles, much more so than basic commuter trash. Their rapidly-forming minds don't want flexibility, or "it depends." They love the idea of vehicles that have a single purpose. Oh, you have a pickup truck to drive to the office most of the time, but sometimes you tow a boat, or pick up a six-pack of toilets at Home Depot? That three year old is fucking bored by your story, dude.

Now, one of the subtleties that the kids don't appreciate is that you can use a so-called single-purpose work vehicle for more than one thing, as long as you're willing to live with some compromises. You'll still get the adoring cheers from an entire daycare as you compression-brake a firetruck through the playground zone, but it also has tons of little cubbies and places to store your groceries. And if you factor in the fact that small-town departments will often leave the lights and siren still hooked up, the fuel economy is excellent if you don't have to stop at any intersections.

And it's not just kids. Adults can't stay away from the vehicle, either. Take, for instance, real firefighters, who are often compelled to check out my sweet ride. They know that I'm a poseur, sure, but their boss won't let them drive one of these fashion-forward, cab-forward 1985 models, and they want to remember what it was like to drive a real firetruck. It's just too much of a liability for dudes who run into burning buildings all day to drive, so they get stuck with a full-fat softroader that loses some of that classic fire-truck appeal.

Now, is a fire truck for everybody? No: people who have to store their car in an underground apartment parkade may find it difficult to navigate tight turns on an exit ramp. For those folks, the airport is often auctioning off their leftover luggage tugs, which will still get an excited hoot from a small child or double-take from a passing police officer.

Did more off-reading in an hour in the new #BMW #X2 than most X2 owners will do in their entire lives. And that’s okay, as pretty as it looked in that soft sand, I wouldn’t take it out there again. #softroader #BMWX2 #carporn #ilovemyjob

We are seeing quite an influx of Mitsubishi cars lately! A client of ours, an ardent Mitsubishi fan upgraded his Cedia to a fairly well maintained 48K kms run Outlander. The SUV has a leaky rear shock absorbers, which we are replacing now along with worn out rear stabilizer links and brake pads. We will be working on it's front suspension in the near future. 👨‍🔧 . . . . #mitsubishi #outlander #suv #crossover #softroader #cvt #mivec #jdm #japanese #manandmachine #loveworkingoncars #fortheloveofcars #wecare #onecaratatime #autoshop #autorepair #autodiagnosis #wrencheveryday #justkeepdriving (at Madhapur) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8k5B0jJuVj/?igshid=1gz02xy1eq7s5
