Most overrated car thread

[beelit47]

Name a ride and tell us why it is overrated to everything else.

The Rivian is overrated IMO. Looks like roger effing rabbit and nobody driving it is doing any fun truck stuff

Never owned an escalade personally, but a friend who owned two had transmission problems with both.

I rent intermediate cars routinely for work and was displeased with the Chevy Trax, I had never heard of that model before, digital gauge cluster graphics looked amateur.

I loved my 2011 Tacoma Trd off-road, but fuel economy while trailering > 70mph was putrid, as in 6-8mpg bad.

Can't wait for the most underrated car thread!

Never driven a Trax. They are popular with Motor home people because they can be flat towed behind the camper. Getting harder and harder to find towable cars. We have the new Frontier and tow a 5k travel trailer. Motors up and down the mountains like you are running solo. Get 11.5 to 12.75 while towing, can get over 13 if we are not in a hurry and keep speed to low 60's.
Worse car I ever had was Ford Focus they had Tranny flaw that they couldn't fix. They extended warrenty out to 100k, but it would be in the shop for new clutch pack every 15 to 20k miles. Had one set that only went 9k. Was great little car other than that.
