Patience does it
https://mavcbr.com/update/patience-does-it/2621205
Driving in traffic, in the city, in some tough situations, specially in India, where traffic rules are a joke, and everyone is trying to jump signals, plow their way through, drive on the wrong side, and try to be the next Rossi, can be frustrating. You might lose your cool someday, if you are a calm person. If you aren’t, that can happen any minute. But you know what will help? Not retaliating, not cursing or honking, not getting into a fight. The exact opposite, in fact. Patience, and taking...

Is my car 5-star rated? Is this low-power motorcycle going to be enough to get me through that long ride? Did I make the right purchase decision? Hey, hey! Slow down, man. Worrying isn’t the solution.

https://mavcbr.com/update/maruti-suzuki-jimny-is-it-underrated/2612415
The Jimny, is quite the unique proposition. There is nothing quite like it, is there? Now you might say that the Mahindra Thar is a competitor. I agree, but I still think that it’s quite unique in it’s own. If you look at it’s segment, the lifestyle Jeep off-roading SUV, then you will realize that it’s rivals, the Thar, the Wrangler and G-Wagon (though technically, they aren’t in the same price bracket, I am mentioning them to cover the full segment), and etc. are known for having really in-you...

You might be wondering-how do you declare whether a car is good or not? How to declare a winner in a particular segment? Well, there is more to this than meets the eye.
So, what should you look for? First, you must know what segment you are talking about. Is it a small hatchback? A premium hatchback? A compact (sub 4-meter), mid-size, or a full-size SUV?
