It was not bad. A bit of McChicken with Big Mac sauce and sauce. I’d get it again.

I'd say that the Kia did pretty well for being launched into low orbit from highway speed, landing on its roof, and rolling.  But I know you will only see things through your particular lens.  ;D
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

The patty is unique to this sandwich - kind of like a bigger, flatter McNugget. Offering a Big Mac with both beef and chicken patties sounds like a no-brainer to me.

Agree that the Kia did well. Glad the driver was able to walk away.

I have to agree.  It’s amazing how much better cars are today in terms of crash worthiness

Damn, that video is freak'n scary. Didn't even look like there was any time to react or if they even saw it happen. Then the tired came back for seconds. Yikes.

Imagine driving along singing to your music and then being launched into the air.

Scary AF.  Crap falling off vehicles is the thing that scares me most about highway driving. Sometimes there is just NOTHING you can do.

I worked with a guy with a truck like that, he was complaining about how it's wheel bearings kept wearing out prematurely and how it handled like crap....but he liked how it looked.

There is a lot to be said for the largely hidden improvements in vehicle crash resistance. The Crosstrek has a second door latch down low on the rear doors to help strengthen things

Yeah, I LOVE having the paint on the side of my truck pelted with rocks, stones and other grit thrown up by the tires.  Not to mention the poor handling, increased wear on suspension components, etc.
