  1. As always Old's appreciate your viewpoint. I would not call it Lazy as so much as ones perspective on the auto's. Or as @surreal1272 said one persons subjective viewpoint. In watching the video, I get the extensive focus on the RS which to me proves as you pointed out just how great a job Corvette Engineering did to get the E-Ray to be so close to the RS and yet pretty much trump the rest of the 911 lineup. We know that having a benchmark is important and as such, have a bigger performance auto equal or beat the 911 is great. I have no doubt that when GM does benchmark the C8 on the German race course it will set records. Records is the key piece as we always find companies leapfrogging the competition to only then loose the lead again the following year for some reason or another.
  2. Todays Dodge Last Call is going on now.
  3. Interesting review. Cannot complain about their negative being the only interior color is black or black and grey. Seems it the Georgia factory is where the GV70 EV is produced. Sadly only a 236 mile range. Genesis Electrified GV70 first drive review: a killer high-end EV with one flaw (msn.com)
  4. So true, course for us tall guys we ski on 239's nothing would fit in the trunk, but they do look more like cross country skis. I can say that Dell clearly has multiple banks as it seems depending on which division you have you get paid out of that bank and of course our pay structure depending on if you are an Engineer, Marketing, Sales, Support, etc. is all different too. Even the Company Yearly Bonus based on performance comes out of another bank compared to my regular pay.
  5. True Dat! It is a marketing term used to focus on the city to suburban person more than those actually living the lifestyle. Course where I live is considered Suburban, but most of my neighbors are gone on the weekends out in the mountains. We hate the city, but like our local mall here and REI on our way to the mountains that are less than an hour drive away for the day.
  6. Very cool advertisement, never seen it before, reminds me of that one James Bond movie where he drives up into some swiss alps ski area. Love the side profile of this car, that is a sexy auto. Imagine if that was an EV, how big that Frunk would be. @oldshurst442 Totally agree with you, it is stupid to see people with ski tags on their jacket especially considering that most ski resorts have not had paper tags in over a decade. At least here in the PNW, I see these tags and that just tells me this person rarely skis as they have used RFID cards that you leave in the special pass pouch. Ski resorts next year here are all moving to their phone apps so you just leave your phone where ever on you and it will be read automatically so you can just jump in line and not get scanned. Those that do not have a smartphone will still be able to get an RFID day pass, but again this goes in a pocket on your ski jacket for scanning. Technology has so moved us to new ways of being Lifestyle without showing others what that lifestyle is. The Bike thing is exacerbating as I see so many luxury auto's with bike racks on the back folded up trying to be kept out of the way but not really being used and instead causing damage as the idiot drivers who bike 1 or 2 times a year try to say "Look at me, I am a road cyclist or Mountain bike Cyclist when it is winter." Idiots I will say that a real Lifestyle believer is one who has various hobbies, might even shop at REI and have the membership (Yup I do), has a whole family that goes up weekly, but when we come down, we take off the ski/snowboard rack and put it away. Yes, we drive AWD vehicles, but you could not tell what our sport interest are as we are not out to show off, but are living that lifestyle that makes us happy. Damn, that is a Sexy Toronado. I so could enjoy a car like that with AWD.
  7. Seems a Price war is blooming in China and could come here. Ford and GM follow Tesla's lead and wade into China price war by offering big discounts to boost sales, report says (msn.com)
