Looks like Honda and Nissan are in talks to merge.

DODGE CHARGERS NOW HAVE POP-UP ADS AT EVERY STOPLIGHT… JUST WHAT NOBODY ASKED FOR

Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console.

That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light.

This garbage feature was spotted in the wild, where a Charger owner posted a photo of their infotainment screen absolutely hijacked by an ad for an extended warranty. Take a look:





This isn’t the first time Stellantis has pulled this sort of stunt with popup ads, either. They already tried adding pop-up ads to Jeeps, and instead of realizing what a total PR disaster that was, they’ve decided to double down and enable popup ads on Dodge vehicles, too.

Maybe because Lucid is located nearby in the East Bay, but saw 4 of them on the road today. Don't recall seeing that many before..usually more Rivians and Teslas.

Here’s Subaru’s 2nd EV they made with Toyota; the 26 Trailblazer. This one should do well.

Wagon no more. The Outback has gone full suv, for 2026.



It will also eventually get a hybrid version.

So, if you like the old wagon style; 2025 is the last year, you can do that.

Many wagon aficionados like myself would argue the Outback hasn’t been a wagon in a long time.

Used the be the plastic cladded and lifted Legacy wagon, now it’s an ugly beast and the legacy is in its final year of production.
