QOTD: Are You Missing the Eclipse?
Is today's question of the day a shameless attempt to tie the Mitsubishi Eclipse to the actual eclipse? Sure, why not. But that doesn't mean it's not true -- myself and at least one other TTAC'er miss the hell out of that car.
QOTD: Is Professional Detailing Worth It?
You wouldn't know it by the weather, at least in parts of the country, but it is springtime according to the calendar.
Snow tires are coming off. So are car covers. And soon, the nation's detailers will be setting to work getting people's rides summer ready.
The question is -- is it worth it to pay for professional detailing?
QOTD: Ready for the Next Toyota 4Runner?
Vehicle launches happen all the time. But only a select few seem to be highly anticipated.
Any time the Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Corvette gets updated, for example. Or something bread and butter like the Honda Accord or Toyota Camry.
Another example -- the return of the Ford Bronco in 2021.
QOTD: What Car Do You Not Recommend?
Last week, we asked you about the most underrated car/truck on the market. Since most of you are enthusiasts, I'd guess that some of you recommend underrated vehicles when your friends and family ask you about purchase decisions. But what are the cars/trucks you steer your friends/family away from?
QOTD: What's The Best Song About Driving?
Over the weekend I trekked out to my parent's house for Easter. It's an hour's drive, minimum, and the return trip took almost double that due to rain and, according to Apple Maps, an accident on the interstate.
I make the trip a fair amount, and I also visit friends or attend personal/professional appointment in the suburbs often. This, plus the airport runs for the travel this job requires, plus the occasional drive to Detroit for events, plus the fact that I can't adequately test a vehicle if it's just sitting in the garage -- this means I drive a lot.
QOTD: What is the Best/Worst Automotive-Related April Fool's Joke?
Today is April Fool's Day, and every year some automakers and some automotive media outlets post something "funny." Sometimes the jokes actually are funny, and sometimes they create a mess.
QOTD: What's The Most Underrated Car Currently On Sale?
With all the excitement of the 2024 New York Auto Show and all the related vehicle debuts, I am thinking about the state of the market.
QOTD: What Do You Want to See from The 2024 New York Auto Show?
Tomorrow is the press/media day for the 2024 New York Auto Show. My rear end is currently parked behind a desk in my Midtown/Times Square hotel, which means I will be at the Jacob Javits Center tomorrow.
QOTD: When Do You Take Your Winter Tires Off?
Today's QOTD won't apply to those of you in the so-called "smile" states, at least not for the most part -- obviously some parts of California see snow, and Texas experiences the white stuff on occasion.
QOTD: How Would Tariffs Impact the Automotive Industry?
Once again, I am going to borrow today's question of the day from one of our earlier posts. I like to do this because it gives you all another forum to give your opinion about any given topic, and sometimes we can pick a particular question from a certain story and really dig in.
Today, Matt wrote about presidential candidate/former president Donald Trump's rhetoric involving tariffs and the automotive industry.
QOTD: Do You Have an Accident-Prone Road in Your Neighborhood?
Matt wrote today about a mystery corner that seems to flummox drivers. A conveniently placed camera made me giggle a little as I read it -- we can laugh at that sort of stuff as long as no one is hurt.
QOTD: Are You Feeling Bad?
We had a piece on Bentley owners feeling just a wee bit guilty about conspicuous consumption today. I found myself giggling a bit at the concept as I edited it -- aren't people who buy Bentleys showing off? At the very least, don't they not care what others think?
Chris wrote as much in his lede.
QOTD: Where Have You Encountered the Worst Traffic?
Matt wrote earlier about 15-minute cities by featuring plans being made in Cleveland. The purpose of these cities is basically to set up neighborhoods so that anything residents want or need is within a 15-minute walk -- thus reducing automobile traffic.
QOTD: Which JDM Car Do You Wish Was Sold in North America?
We all know there are certain Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) cars you cannot buy in the United States or Canada. So today's question of the day is a simple one -- which piece of forbidden fruit would you like?
