    Rumorpile: BMW X4 Renderings

    Editor/Reporter - CheersandGears.com

    February 4, 2012

    Back in January, BMW announced $900 million investment into their Spartanburg, S.C. plant to bring forth 300 new jobs and to make way for a forth vehicle to be built. That forth vehicle is a smaller version of the X6 called the X4.

    Auto Express has done a couple renderings of what the X4 could look like when it goes into production in 2014.

    The X4 will share the overall shape of the X6 including a sloping roofline, unique lights and bumpers, and a distinct front end. The X4 will use the X3’s platform and share engines.

    Stop the insanity. I can't wait for this SUV fad to be over. Why does BMW need 4 SUVs and 5 counting the X1 that may come here? That is stupid. And the problem is most of the people supporting this "I want a new SUV that isn't an SUV, but is trendy to park at Starbucks" are the yuppie types that buy BMWs. What is happening to performance? Automakers want to make econoboxes and SUVs now, and kill sport sedans and coupes.

    Due to Dual incomes, families that have no kids or the kids are finally over and off on their own, want a driving machine with the room of a Mini Van. So with that said, everyone is delivering the SUV/CUV with AWD that the market demands.

    You want your driving machine, go buy your CTS-V, M3, AMG, Corvette, Camaro, Mustange, etc. Plenty of driving machines even in a dull version like the ugly camry.

    This is the Age of the SUV/CUV.

      Toyota News: 2027 Toyota Highlander EV: Specs, Range, Price & Trim

      By smk4565 · Posted

      Grand Highlander is slightly bigger, but still close enough in size that you wouldn't need both if they had the same powertrain.

      yes exactly. And if you think about it, because the highlander and grand highlander are now about the same size, this is effectively the only model that can be had in EV, Hybrid, or just gasoline.

      Only if you're a rapist or Pedo! Those seem to be a requirement with the current administration of Idiot47. Never flew on them, I not really heard much good from folks except if your just focused on price.

      What I was really going to post ... This is more of a QUESTION than it is a random post. Have any of you flown on the lesser known airlines like Frontier, Allegiant, etc.? - - - - - I flew on Spirit only once and surprisingly got a good fare from Pensacola to South Florida (Lauderdale, in this case).  It was about $105 with the bag underneath and a window seat.  I got lucky that time.  It was cheaper than driving and less tiring. What about Frontier and Allegiant?  They initially display a favorable price with zero add-ons.  But, by the time you add a rollaboard and a bag underneath, does it come out to about what the legacy carriers might charge?  I always get turned off when I check out Frontier or Spirit, only to find that it's not as cheap as it looks and I don't get miles credited to a significant account. As for Southwest, they're just like the other carriers now ... you pay for bags, good seats, etc. Help needed with the "other" cheapies ... especially Frontier.  Thanks.
