Otherwise it’s not that noticeable to me. Obviously the system on the JGC is the modern apogee of Jeep 4wd. But whatever is in the JK and JK is still oddly effective even short of Rubicon trim. |
Huh, good to know.
When I "locked" the JGC center-diff, I could barely take my first turn in an open parking lot. |

Scary as shit ... she and one of her friends have some neck, chest and back pains but we are hoping everything is ok (fingers crossed) kudos to Audi, it got hit by a big pick up truck and the interior of the car had no visible damage. Argh ... now you see why crash ratings are so important ... |
Hope no lingering injuries.

Damn. Glad she's OK. :(

Awful. I had a near miss like that with a pickup truck while in college (Hudson Valley of NY). In a tiny Mazda circa 1980. Lucky to be alive.
So glad your daughter escaped serious injury. |
Wasn't sure where to put this observation, but figured this was as good a place as any.
I have a base Cayenne as a loaner today. The 911 has a minor leak at the water pump (wide ranging issue), so I dropped it off at the local dealer for a warranty fix of that, a broken plastic latch and the PA State Inspection. It only has a big sunroof and 14 way seats as options and lists at ~$75k. For the money, I am not impressed. The steering is quite light and darty (similar to recent BMWs), the transmission downshifts more roughly when slowing down than I'd expect and trunk, while pretty large) has the sloping rear glass that doesn't give a lot of room for my dog. It also floats / pogo sticks a bit more than I prefer. The X5 rides more roughly but is also more controlled. From my month + of 911 experience, I would say it doesn't have a lot of Porsche DNA. If I had to choose between this or the X3 b58 loaner I had last year, I'd take the X3 by a large margin. |
