Does anyone else find it funny that Mahindra started their car business with knock-down Jeep kits in the 1940s, and now they're assembling knock-down kits of the Jeep-like Roxor in the United States?
It feels like a complete circle, with old-time Jeep enthusiasts enjoying the CJ-like Roxor, while FCA was busy trying to ban the car in the US, only to have Mahindra redesign the thing in order to continue selling it (although the website configurator still says the car isn't in production).

Do you guys think destroying our urban cores to make highways for suburbs in the 1940s-1960s was a good idea?
saw a post which showed that Kansas City went from this to this (and this for cincinnati) and im interested in the topic overall, and its actually crazy how our cities have historically cleared out inner urban cores to make room for highways/parking lots. What's your opinion on this? Why didn't other rich countries do this to the same extent?
