What’s your favorite car, and why is it the Volvo 242? (I’m partial to the earlier ones from the mid-late 70’s, but the early 80’s turbos are cool as well.)
can you tell me something cool about my 2012 Nissan Rogue AWD. I’ve had it for a few years and I think it’s really lame so something cool to use to flex against other people would be awesome
haha we lucked out actually. my moms rogue started going out at 110k, and my dads altima (also CVT) made it to 220 before we sold it. so, hopefully yours makes it :)
Can you confirm your model year has the V8 engine? Wikipedia says it went from a V4 to V8 in 2012, with a top speed of 265km/h (164mp/h) or 282km/h (175mp/h) in sport mode, which seems crazyy for a crossover.
The later generation Rogue was merged into the Nissan X-Trail, making it consistent with internationally sold vehicles and it does NOT have a V8 engine of any kind.
I used to be really into cars in the late 90’s. But I got into other stuff since, and car stuff kinda fell off my radar.
Last week I read an article talking about how automatic transmissions are up to like 8 gears on average. And cars seem so computerized now, I’m wondering whether the old mechanical systems for things like variable valve timing have just given way to totally electronic systems.
What can you tell me about what has happened since, say, 2000, in regular ICE cars?
cars. give me the slightest chance and I will dump everything I know on you. I just love explaining how specific systems work

haha no. rogues are some of the worst cars to ever roll off a production line. the cvt transmission in them is so bad that it rarely makes it past 60k
Oh that’s fun to know. Mines at 46k right now.

Wikipedia gota be wrong because there was maybe one or two cars to ever come with a v4 and it ain’t a rogue
do u have link? Wikipedia says they’ve only ever come with I4, and they’re still making rogues to this day
edit: my bad, they merged in the international market (wherever that is) but not the us
I can definitely check later. The gauge does go up to 160 mph but id be surprised if it can even go 120. Fastest I’ve gone in it was 90.
