QOTD: Why Buy A Mitsubishi?

I don’t know why people buy a Mitsubishi. That is a simple question, difficult answer that I have to think about for the next three or four months. What is the benefit?

The above quote is attributed to Mutsuhiro Oshikiri, head of Mitsubishi Australia. While hearing any company head speak so disparagingly about their product would be shocking, Mitsubishi used to be a serious player down under, with local manufacturing facilities and best-selling cars.

Tassos Jeep again proving they stand behind freedom. The freedom to choose the fuel you use. I’ll take one in ”Right to express myself freely” pink.
Jeff Good move on Cadillac's part. Not everyone is ready for an EV it will take more time to expand the charging infrastructure and more affordable EVs.
3-On-The-Tree I was never a fan of the newer dodge products but it’s still a shame that all the OEM’s are moving away from V8’s to turbo V6 and V4’s all in the name of emissions and better mpg.
FreedMike I like the idea of EVs, but the idea that they're going to achieve 100% market penetration was a fantasy to begin with. Also worth noting; Cadillac is on track to sell well over 20,000 Lyriqs this year. Not too shabby. https://www.coxautoinc.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Q1-2024-Kelley-Blue-Book-Electric-Vehicle-Sales-Report.pdf
MaintenanceCosts This engine is a lot less interesting in a nearly-6000-pound Durango than in a 4400-pound Charger. I’ve never understood why this gen of Durango weighs in as heavy as a Wagoneer.
