    Great video as always, Jeff. I haven't seen any of your videos in awhile; I think I have too many subscriptions because you hadn't made my Home page or Suggestions for some reason... To the point I was wondering if you hadn't been posting! The YT algorithm is a fickle mistress. Anyway, I'm glad to see you're still rocking and rolling. Now it's time for me to catch up on what I've missed! Love your channel.

    I'm a hero! I am going to let my wife know - lol. I ordered the sport turismo in papaya metallic in December! It's the new 4S e-hybrid, so still waiting on the epa to finalize mpg ratings for this new variant. Supposed to mfg end of March and ship Aril and arrive late May - the wait is painful. Great video - keep it up. See if you can do the 4s e-hybrid when available. It has over 550hp combined - can't wait!

    Yes. It is the perfect car. I love wagons and I love roasting the back tires off the line with the back end taking a slightly different trajectory. I had a 1968 Ford Squire with a 390. Awesome car. It was heavy but it wasn’t fast, but it did pull like a freight train. I had a 1995 E320 wagon. Also one of my favorite cars. Also life long MB fan. Quality control on that car was appalling and I was embarrassed to know that my 1968 car had more proper working components than my 1995 Mercedes. Ditched that quickly. But I realized I wanted and car that had the presence and the size and cargo ability of the Country Squire, but wanted it as nice (when new) and nimble and fun as the Benz, but a foot linger wheelbase, and at least 100 more HP. Then, like a weird dream, it was built. MB had bought Chrysler, and they made a 120” wheelbase RWD platform with a new Hemi and 340 HP and 390ftlbs and used the previous gen E class front end and S class rear cradle (in steel for Chrysler) and mos tof the switchgear was MB. That was weird. Like someone took my dreams and said “how about this and this and this?” So I got the new Magnum with the Hemi and sideways launches never get old (but the tire bill does). I’ve never been a Porsche fan but respect their place in engineering and design. Well that car is fucking so pretty it most likely IS illegal in some states, especially in the south. Guy within a mile of me has the green one. When it’s near all else is blocked out, window goes down, phone comes out, too late, but good god it’s beautiful . Sorry. I care

    I’m more OK with you using the term “perfect” with a sporty wagon such as this than, say, some new Ferrari or something... And I can’t quite articulate why, but I suspect you understand completely.

    Love your stuff and this car, Jeff. Thoughts on Gigaton? I think the first several songs are great, the last part of the album is still growing on me.

      I love the first singles that came out from it. Then after hearing the album, I really like Comes Then Goes. Feels like it could've been on a past album, and I mean that in a good way. Dance of the Clairvoyants almost has a Beck-vibe to it that I really like. And at first I wasn't sure on Superblood Wolfmoon, but I think that's become my favorite on the album.
      As a whole, I'd almost say there's a Led Zepplin undercurrent to Gigaton too. Especially Quick Escape.

      The Hooniverse Quick Escape is probably my favorite on the album. Definitely agree with Superblood Wolfmoon, wasn’t my favorite when it came out, but gets better with each listen. I’ve come to appreciate Alright as well, though it’s a different vibe than others on the album.

    I think it would be better if they stopped making twin turbo model but other than that I like it

    VW AUDI PORSCHE shoulda left all the attention 2 the RS6. NO I can't afford this UGLY, BUT... THE RS6 IS THE GORGEOUS FRATERNAL TWIN.

      Not a big fan of the rather ostentatious RS6. Looks too much of a caricature of what RS cars used to look like. Porsche is a bit more reserved in that regard while still maintaining the bonkers performance.
