RDX now one of the Top Ten vehicles to be "stuck inside"

They are talking about the amount of junk you breathe from the chemicals outgassing while you are stuck inside your car, I think it's a little off base, but fun to be mentioned anyways:

Cool, I wonder how the base scored. Since the list specifies RDX Tech.

Now I can REALLY tell my wife, "I wouldn't want to be caught dead in a Versa!"

well, now they forgot to mention how healthy all those radio frequencies are for our brains! I'm sure some folks pulled together some tax dollars to prove a point, but mostly to keep thier jobs once funding was exhausted. Really, see how they spend our money?

Tell, me how the heck is that useful information in every day life? I'm sure a bunch of folks got paid x # of dollars for two years or so to roll out that work of art.


Not frowning on you, glad to see any report on the car. Just the point of the article seems so trivial with all we deal with these days.

The truth usually lies somewhere in the middle. Being locked up in a new car for 4 or 5 hours on a long drive, god only knows what chemicals your inhaling. Although we call it the new car smell. ( and it smells good to me)

The glass is half empty, huh?

Just some trivial info because this board is so slow and boring most of the time. Thinking some people might find it interesting....

I for one found the article amusing. Thanks for the post!
And I find it useful in everyday life.
Ex) Walk up to a Versa owner and say, "Hey, your car is toxic(to look at too)!"
