50 years old. Owned 15 cars. Been idling since 1986. Never lost an engine. :D

He's one of many normal people that don't have WG issues. 🤣 My 2 current turbo cars are my 5th and 6th turbo cars. Zero WG failures.

I am 2 miles from my door to my job. Didn't plan that. Been doing this for 3 years now. I absolutely warm it up for 5-10 minutes. Contrary to common belief I do not believe idling is bad for a car. People say it is a waste of time and money and gas and is environmentally irresponsible. Also...

Pretty sure he was joking. Had to be...

In the modern age they were absolutely the first to put a HUD in any car in this class. Fact. I didn't say first ever.

TON of videos on YouTube. Google for "Android Auto Tutorial". Here's the official help page from Google: https://support.google.com/androidauto?hl=en#topic=6348018

Saab and Volvo know turbos. There are never many failures on any of their turbo cars. Mazda doesn't have QUITE the experience as some car makers, but I do trust them enough to know how to source or build (not sure who makes Mazda's turbo or if they do) good ones...

You missed my point. I didn't watch the video because i hate videos or write ups like that. "5 things you should do with your turbo! But first, a full 5 minutes on WHAT is a turbo." Or "Recipe for super yummy food...let me spend 5 paragraphs telling you why I like this food"... I will say...

I don't completely disagree at all. I disagree with "Change the oil excessively" or "change the air filter daily"...

Everybody "gets that". Literally the #1 argument when people debate getting a turbo. "It's so much more complicated! More to break". Literally almost every single post. More parts does not automatically mean more to break. THAT'S what most people don't get. You think a modern turbo can't go...

That video sucks. Amazes me in this day and age that people still make absolute awful videos like that. "5 things you should do if you have a turbo..." But first..let me spend 5 minutes explaining what a Turbo is... Hate that on videos, reviews, websites...

You fit all that in the nets? Y'all know there's a trunk in the back, right? 🤣 (Just teasing) I don't keep much in my cars. I have a credit card sized flashlight in mine, haven't used it ever. A blanket in the winter in the back. Never used it. LOL. Phone cables in the center console. My darts...

Coffee spills? How many coffee spills have there been, my fried? Sounds like you may not have proper drink ware! :D

Someone was just complaining on a Volvo sub I hang out about the same thing in the SUV's. A few people agreed with him. And here I am thinking, much like you: what are you people storing in your cars?!?! I have the sedan and more then enough 'storage'. :D

Just installed Tuxmats in my Volvo. Beyond impressed. They look like they were installed at the factory. I really like carpet in my cars so I only run weather mats in winter but these are so nice for the first time in my life...I may keep them year round.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Y'all missed my point, sorry I was not clear. It surprises me how many people CAN... CAN..ARE ABLE TO...pay for cars in CA$H. My mother in law does it too...puts aside money every month, pays cash for car. I get it. I don't do it. I like having ZERO car payments...

Off topic, it's absolutely insane to me the # of people I see here and especially on Reddit...paying cash for $30k-$40k cars.

I know tire rotations are, believe it or not, free at my dealer. Sounds to me like he's trying to make sure that tire continues to wear badly so they can sell you 4 new ones soon.

So you put over 30,000 miles on your 4 wheel vehicles, and 8000 on your 2 wheel... are you ever home? :D
