Wife’s daily driver is a 2017 GTI, Just turned 55K no issues AT ALL. We have had it two years and wouldn’t trade it for anything else. I got to drive it Saturday, just as much fun as ever, I had to ask her “how is it that you don’t have a stack of speeding tickets by now”?
I pulled up beside a red one in Destin, Florida yesterday. I noticed right away the tires were much more designed for pavement (only) than the Bridgestones that came on my Ranger.
I think you’re right about this one. I’m pretty sure my wife dented my left rear just reaching into the bed for a kayak paddle on our first trip to the boat ramp, and NO she doesn’t have implants!
I AGREE. Simple is good, and really simple is really good. I just turned 5K on my Ranger, but ive opened and closed the tailgate many many times. I swear the “issue” of no dampener has got to be the most limp wristed criticism i’ve ever heard of on any vehicle of any kind. I am almost embarrased...
On one of my many trips to the local dealers i mentioned that i wasn’t going to buy a super crew model without at least seeing a super cab, they got VERY stand offish, so i never went back. LOL

My 92 year old mother tells me almost daily that she sees Ranger ads on television here in Northwest Florida. I have never seen one personally, as i can hardly stand to be in the same room with a television on.
I have an STX 4X4 that I got to take on a 2,500 mile road trip over Labor Day weekend. We got to do some “boondock” camping in Kentucky that involved leaving the pavement for a mile or two down to a creek. I was VERY happy to have four wheel drive when I needed it (sort of) but also happy to...
The only time I will “need” the back seat (for a person) is coming home from the boat ramp type of thing. My tiny wife has volunteered the get back there should the need arise. In the meantime we are THRILLED with a six foot bed after ten years in Subaru Bajas with a very very short bed. The...
I am surprised at how many of you take the computers word for what you’re getting for mileage.
It’s bound to have some “wishful thinking algorithmic bru-ha-ha” programmed in. Be sure to check it occasionally with the trip meter, gas pump and a calculator. Unless of course you just don’t want...
