If this continues with a new litterbox with a cover, then you should consider bringing them to a vet. Cats are very clean animals so if they are pooping outside the box, it is usually for a good reason.

They might still have mobility issues. If you don’t want to cut the front of the litterbox open to make it lower and bigger, than maybe get a piece of wood or a brick or something else to act like a step to make it easier for them to get into the box.

Also, I assume the litterbox isn’t just the bottom. Those are usually terrible. I am guessing that there is a top/cover to it, right? They could be pooping in the box near the edge and it just falls out if there is no cover.

Is the cat older? My oldest cat couldn’t step up into the litter box anymore so I ended up cutting the front of it so the step over was much smaller. You could also put a brick or build a wooden step which makes it easier for her to step into the box. It has to be heavy and sturdy enough to where it won’t move when the cat steps on it.

Also check that the box is clean. I would dump qll the litter and hit the inside with a hose to make sure it is clean. Dey it, and then refill it with fresh litter. And make sure you scoop out all the poop out of it every day. Cats tends to be very clean animals and don’t like a dirty box.

Another thing to consider is if the box is too small for them. One of our cats is rather large so we had to get a larger litter box for them.

I might agree with previous, smaller generations of Mustang, but I think at this point a V8 is the way to go. Especially when you consider that the days of new ICE cars is limited.

My most fun car was my OG bugeye Rex. Wasn’t an STI but damn did I love that car. Was so sad to have to say goodbye to it after 13 years of daily driving it.

Is this where the line starts?

I really wish Mazda would release some new Speed models. The 2nd gen S3 came out about a decade ago, and the S6 is nearing 20 years old. Really, I wish they would release any new non-crossover models because its a brand I want to like, but nothing in their lineup really suites my needs.

Unfortunately I think we are caught in a weird holding pattern for cars like that. For the last few years all car makers have been cutting almost anything fun or interesting as they ramp up their EV game. And that’s going to continue for a few more years as there is a whole ton of stuff going on internally and tons of uncertanty. I think (or at least I hope) that once these comapnies figure out their EV game-plan, they will use the cost savings allowed by using a common skateboard platform and let their designers run wild with crazier designs. But if that does happen, it probably won’t for a while. I think the first sign of this is that rather cool ID.Buzz retro EV van from VW.

You are right, they are further apart in price than I realize. I always thought the Supra followed it’s BMW-heritage and cost more. I thought it started at 60, but the I6 could be had for $54k and up. I’d never even consider an i4 with that car.

Still, the Corvette starts at only $66k. Neither of these cars are going to be sold at a discount and I’m sure both Chevy and Toyota dealers are trying to add on mark-ups, but you don’t have to get crazy with options on the Vette and spend nearly 6-figures. Still, if I was dropping between $55 and $60k on a sports car, I rather get a used C8 (or even a C7) than a new Supra.

We’ll see. I like that the Ford Maverick has become as big of a hit as it has because that means more companies will eventually release competitors. I’m hoping for a modern El Camino. I really think that if GM had released an El Camino on the RWD Alpha platform, it could have saved the Camaro since it also rides on that platform.

I hope he turns this into a project car.

Either go crazy and put an ICE into it (like Rich Rebuolds did with his Tesla), or maybe try to see if he could salvage the pack by replacing only some cells.

What I’ve love to see is him turning it into a plug in hybrid. Add some kind of small generator in back and then replace all the electronics. Maybe double the horsepower or something while he’s at it.

Wagons are awesome. It makes me sad that there are essentially no options for wagons in the US.

I miss my bugeye Rex so much. Most fun car I’ve ever had. Put 240k miles on it and every last one of those miles was a hoot. Never get rid of that car - there’s nothing else like it out there.

And they didn’t axe it and immediately replace them. Even now they only have like 3 EVs and none of them are Focus-sized and all of them are expensive.

The Stout?! What the heck is that? Haven’t heard about that one.

I could definitely see it being on the top of the list for many people.

I would it if Mazda got a little more serious about sedans. That new TT V6 power train in the CX90 would have been awesome in a sedan or sports car.

Damn shame Ford has decided to turn its back on cars (other than the Mustang).

Never even heard of that brand before. From the pics, it looks cool. Good size - not too big. I don’t think I could convince myself to get a Chinese brand though, but if it fits your needs, have at it.

I really hate the looks of the squinty headlights of the current model. It irks me so much. Plus I don’t really live in convertible location. Would be a waste, but I do love sunroof. I do like the Miata, but I’d be more interested in an early gen model that wouldn’t be a daily.

Would a miata be your pick if your current car exploded tomorrow?
