    Sergio must love seeing Alfa up 3000% while Dodge and Chrysler tank.  Makes it easy to divert all resources to Alfa and shut down the sinking brands and then sell Alfa and Jeep as separate pieces and take a huge golden parachute.

    Alfa has been a sunk brand for 15 years. He is using money from Jeep and Ram to necromance the brand.  I wouldn't be surprised if he tried Lancia next (down to just selling the rebadged 300 as the Thema, only in Italy)

    Easy to go up 3000% from the previous when the previous year was essentially zero. f@#k Alfa and Sergio.

    Alfa sales are still crap but Sergio will get paid by selling pieces of the company to make money.  So that is what he is going to try to do.

    Yet it’s Alfa and Fiat that are the sinking brands and always have been. Sergio is an idiot and a thief.

    Glad to see things are heading up...

    Noticed many fattened the discounts a bit, though there are still quite a few 2017s out there around me. If they up the discounts a little bit more, I think it's possible to have some positive figures to round out the year....

    Not all the news is good.  Buick down 20%; Dodge and Chrysler down at least 16% each; FIAT down 24%.

    Buick slid despite having THREE crossovers; Chevrolet is up 17% with how many crossovers....?  Some things are weird these days.

    Sergio is an idiot if you are a fan of the cars FCA makes.  But the Angelli family is paying him to make money, not sell cars, and corporate raiding and selling off pieces is how to make quick cash to line the family pockets.

    Dodge is down simply because of the loss of the Dart and mostly because they are phasing out the Grand Caravan production.  Chrysler is down simply because of the loss of the 200.  Jeep is down mainly because o the loss of the Patriot.  You do actually realize these things, right?

    To add what i said to Dodge, Buick is doing a changeover for their biggest and best selling CUV and the loss of the Verano is going to be big because it was easily their best selling car.

    17 F-150s have discounts around here of up to 17k, but I would MUCH rather have an 18 RC with the FX4 package and the 5.0/10 speed.

    • Yup. If BYD's battery system tech is true with 100% charging in 5 minutes.   Pretty much every body is toast. And it does not matter if the US and Canada tariff the crap out of BYD and Chinese EVs form their respective market.  BYD is already in the process of flooding their EVs all OVER the planet.  Including Mexico.   And if Trump pisses off Canada even more with tariffs, forget about Canada banning Tesla for the Canadian market, Canada might just drop our 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs and meight as well let BYD flood our market too.  China last week or two punished us with 100% tariffs on our porc and other food products that we sell to them.  Retaliatory. (where have  I heard that word before?)  Chinese importers will simply buy porc from other countries hurting our industry... If American tariffs on GM of Canada vehicles and FoMoCo Canada vehicles is still a go, our factories might close, but maybe if we let BYD flood our market, it will hurt GM and FoMoCo THAT much more. And it doesnt matter, Trump's economic war with ALL of its allies will doom GM and FoMoCo anyway.  
    • Ive thought about it.  And there are literally no luxury sedans (the big ones) in this modern era of the 2020s (and to be more precise to use 2025) that I currently lust for.   Nothing from Bentley or Rolls Royce.  Nothing from Mercedes or BMW.  The Audi A8?  I dont like it.  I like the medium version of the A8. The A6.  Precisely, the RS6 Avant.   This.     Americans dont do sedans anymore.  OK...Cadillac has got the CT5.  But it aint a big cruiser sedan.  I do like the Black Wing V Series.   I dont lust after it anymore.  I got over it.
    • Cadillac's EV's seem to be selling though and Genesis's are not.  The Lyriq is more GV80 sized the Optic is GV70 size.  I think Cadillac could still step up the interiors a bit and the Ultium platform cars are still a bit heavy compared to other EVs, but I think they have a better line up than Genesis.  And Cadillac will have an EV sedan or 2 to replace the CT4/CT5, although rumor is one is mid-size and the other full size. Either way, I was just reading about the BYD Yangwang U7, which is a full size sedan, interior looks on par to a Genesis G90 but it has 1,287 hp and costs $86,000.  And it charges at 500 kw, and BYD has 1,000 kw charging cars going on sale this year.  And the Yangwang U8 SUV also is a boat, which the Escalade IQ cannot drive across rivers.  All these guys are toast anyway.
    • I saw a black regular wheelbase G90 at the post office recently.  It’s a sharp car. But I prefer the styling of my black CT6 parked a couple spaces over.   As far as current luxobarges, I like the Audi A8 styling over the other Germans. 
    • I saw one of these coincidentally today. Not the longwheel base obviously.  Its not out yet as I understand this article.  The regular one. I do not know what year it was, but it was this current gen.  In person, its massive as a vehicle.  Imposing.  But it looks odd.  Not very stately.  Awkward and dare I say goofy. The front end looks good on it. But every other angle on it is just...dated.  Side angle and especially the back end,  looks like a luxury vehicle that would have come out from an Eastern communist  block  country...20 years ago.    I was approaching it from the rear. It was in front of me in the right lane as I was in the left lane and I didnt notice it until I was approximately next to it from this angle.    Then the traffic stopped in both lanes and I was next to it side by side.  An older gentleman was driving it. In his 70s for sure. If not older.  And I was in disgust for the car.  The outgoing Town Car of 15 years ago or so was more elegant. Despite it being a car from 1998...    Then I realized Lincoln makes no more bigely sedans... Cadillac too, has stopped with the cruiser sedans.  At least for North America. I just googled to see what the Chinese CT6 looks like And I now realize that the Asian luxury market prefers their cruiser sedans to have these kinds of proprtions.  Its weird to my American car style eyes.   But the Caddy looks a LOT better than the Genesis G90. I prefer the previous American CT6.  Our own @Robert Hall's gen CT6 is a pretty American styled sedan.  But who am I to talk.  I drive an American styled for the American market Honda Accord.   It too, has these weird Asian style stylings.
