Now that's really ugly!!
At least the snout of it is MUCH better than the snout on previous Acuras. The rest of it, not so much.

do I buy a set of steel rims to put on the all seasons when the snows come off, or just pay the $60, $70 mounting fee each time I swap them out? On the one hand, the tires un-mounted on rims are so much easier to deal with

Missed that one, so, an extra set of rims it will be. Not concerned about the latter. Thx.On another thread about tires there were a couple of posts mentioning the possible stretching of the tire bead as a result of frequent tires on/off wheels and subsequent slow leak. Also a lot of tire shops have a waiver making them not responsible for damage to alloy wheels as a result of tire mounting.
It's an SUV, they're all ugly ... even the best of them -Now that's really ugly!!
I find it slightly puzzling that in such a big auto market your options are so limited but that must be a consequence of the obsession with trucks, SUVs and crossovers.
Red Rose isn't available here anymore? I grew up with Red Rose. I almost never drink black tea anymore, I guess.I think part of the problem is that the US market has always viewed hatchback cars as utilitarian entry level cars. Whereas in Canada, for instance, hatchbacks are viewed as very practical, wagon like but sportier, and great value. While I can't list any off the top of my head, over the years we have had popular hatchbacks offered for sale in Canada that were not available in the US.
From a popular Canadian Red Rose Tea ad of a few years ago:
Two old English gals at tea time, "Only available in Canada you say"? (sips tea)....."Pity".
If you ask me, and no offence to anyone but I'd say it looks like an active outdoorsy single middle aged female and newly divorced soccer mom's car, (same age demographic). Practical. Bland styling, not quite classic, not quite sporty.The only problem with the Alltracks wagon is that it just doesn't inspire the fear of God into other drivers on the road, which is my best theory why no one wants wagons in the US... and you can't see the gun rack nearly as well as a pickup. Maybe if I could rig up a 'rolling coal' set up though...
