    Some time in 2015/2016, parents had a loaner Ford ecosport. That thing struggled with hills. And by hills, I mean speed bumps and anything not completely horizontal. Nobody even felt like trying to get it on a highway, we knew there was no way it could get up to speed safely.

    Chevy Malibu I got at a rental place because they didn’t have the type of car I requested months ahead of time. Neither my partner nor I could figure out how the fuck to set the cruise control, which had “get up to speed then step on the brake” as one of the instructions. We’re also not frequent drivers.

    Fuck that car, driving it gave me a panic attack

    I did a road trip in a Wrangler once, it’s an awful car. slow, uncomfortable, loud, poor handling, fuel-hungry, needed to stop every 30 minutes to clean bugs off the windshield.

    Easily the Daihatsu cuore 2003-ish.

    I’ve driven a lot of shitboxes, including a couple different daihatsu models, but that thing just isn’t build right.
