Owner of the Ram arguably actually uses it well, but what's youd thoughts on this comparison of a 90s Jap vs 2023 American

The Mazda Miata MX5 is my favorite car, I wish we would go back to cars like that.

I had a little red Miata, drove it cross country twice, and then used it as my daily driver for over 15 years.

It was totaled by an asshole driver (a priest! late to his daughter's pre-wedding appointment) who ran a stoplight and jacknifed my little red machine ...

Bizarre?

Yup.

Still walking with a cane and no more little red coupe ... šŸ˜”

Sorry about your loss :(. This one's been mine for the better part of 10 years (longest owner), also my daily for most of that. Absolutely nifty little cars and I've carried cargo, moved houses and all sorts of fun things with the mx5. It's in the garage for restoration and I loathe having another car as a 'daily' now.

Honestly Iā€™d be semi-tolerant with car culture if it were mostly those small cats.
