I started watching one of the several Motorweeks I have recorded.

The new 2025 Seinna has a built-in vacuum cleaner in the back seat. It's a small one, suitable for peanut M&Ms.

Lots of problems with the new engines: by that I mean car makers have downsized to turbocharged four cylinders instead of six or eight cylinder normally aspirated engines.

Pumping out good power from small, highly stressed engines is a recipe for early failure, and that is what is being reported.

Blown head gaskets in particular, and direct injection is causing huge issues with carbon build up on the valves.

Me, I've been looking for a cream puff '06 or '07 Lexus LS 430:arguably one of the best modern cars ever built.
