The new electric cars announced at this year’s Los Angeles Auto Show are quite impressive. From the Rivian R1T to the Kia Soul, it really looks like 2020 is the year electrics take over.

My bother is already considering the Soul EV as a replacement for their 06 xb, which currently has like 160,000 miles on it.

Also who are we kidding the VW EV that will make it to production is the Crossover.

I fucking hope so. I love the wail of a big V12 but good lord I’m so done with ICE.

Please don’t let them use the breadbox as a trade-in . Have them keep it around and sell it off to someone who will love it and take care of it like it’s their child.

I’m seeing less first gen xBs on the road every year and it makes me sad.

Yeah they were never made to last, and were typically bought by some one who puts a ton of miles on their car. So in now 12 years later they are mostly falling apart with 200,000+ miles. My brother’s is a clean “low mileage ” example.

I’ve seen 150,000-200,000 mile examples still trundling around that are just starting to experience rear quarter rust.

This is in Maine, where our roads are 50% salt by the second snowstorm.

Yeah my Brother lived in Maine up until last year and I don’t think his xb has any rust to speak of. Now he lived is North Carolina. So now I’ll get sea salt in east of road salt
