If we include the upcoming 2025 Crown Signia, Toyota has 10 different SUV models in the US (sh.itjust.works)

  1. Corolla Cross
  2. RAV4
  3. bZ4X
  4. Venza
  5. Highlander
  6. Grand Highlander
  7. 4Runner
  8. Land Cruiser
  9. Sequoia
  10. A Crown Signia crossover in 2025

Does any other carmaker have this many SUVs/Crossovers being sold at the same time? Seems like so much overlap between them that I'm surprised it's profitable to do this, let alone to have to keep up regular refreshes/redesigns of 10 different models without them starting to look the same.

Can we please have a ew X-Terra and not the family wagon in the Middle East? (www.motortrend.com)

We need a proper X-Terra because the Pathfinder is not it and the X-Terra in the Middle East is almost the US Pathfinder.

I mean is that much more of an accomplishment if it's the only petrol sports car still sold in most the world?

Baltimore bridge collapse has automakers scrambling at nation's biggest port for cars - Autoblog (www.autoblog.com)

I didn't realize Baltimore was so important for the car market of the Midwest and East Coast. Apparently 800,000+ cars are delivered per year through the Port of Baltimore, but with the bridge collapse today it sounds like shipments could cause some car market issues for a swath of the country.

Citroën Is Coming Back with a giant USB? (web.archive.org)

Did anybody else see this and think the logo on the door was a giant USB port for charging this electric car sold in the USA (but only DC) and in the EU where you might not even need a license if your county classifies it as a "quadracycle" instead.

Trailer brake circuit breaker advice. (self.cars)
submitted 11 months ago by Machinist to c/cars
12 comments fedilink
 
 

We're preparing to move about 1000mi.

I'm getting my truck ready to tow a trailer for our three potbelly pigs, two cats and a dog.

'98 Ranger XLT with 4.0L V6, auto trans. Rated for 5900lbs tow, 9500 gross. Even has the overdrive disable and good rear end ratio.

I'm adding a Redarc Liberty brake control. The 7-way plug kit I got includes 30 and 40 amp auto reset breakers for the control and trailer power.

Here's the thing. I don't like the idea of an automatically resetting breaker at 30 amps or more due to the risk of fire or frying the electronics in my truck. I would prefer to install manual reset breakers. I understand that an auto reset might allow some brake capability in the event of a short and that is why they are used. I just don't feel like the auto breaker justification is that likely vs the other risks of auto breakers.

How long does it take the auto breakers to reset?

What are the real world risks using manual reset breakers?

Opinions/thoughts greatly appreciated!

I have many more questions. Where did he get BMW? Was he acting alone or is a part of a group? How well was he driving?
