For those that like Big Machinery, Seattle has open their new Under ground Alaska way freeway that replaced our Viaduct. This movie was assembled by the WSDOT and shows in speeded mode the removal of the Viaduct and reconnecting the city with the waterfront. You will see the Dell Technology building I work in at 4:55 in the video. This is the South end removal of the Viaduct that is only inches away from buildings.

September 2019: Volkswagen of America
Glad to see that VW sales in SUV category is going up while cars sales are tanking. At least something is working for them after Dieselgate.

September 2019: Toyota Motor North America
Nice Hybrid Sales being up big time, but even a company like Toyota that is down tells me we are going into a recession.

September 2019: Subaru of America
I am honestly surprised that they are down that much for the month, but still on a positive growth for the year. For some reason thought they would have done better.

September 2019: Mazda USA
WOW, I thought Mazda was doing good, but looking at that chart, it is a blood bath of Negatives.

September 2019: Infiniti USA
OUCH, Guess folks are not happy with Infiniti as being down 35.4% for car sales and 46.9% for CUV/SUV sales is not a small thing.

Interesting so year to date sales are up 2.7 %, but this month, they are down big time 9% if my math is correct.
-
September 2019: Honda Motor America

All New Maseratis To Be Electrified :Comments
@balthazar I would also add elcamino guy, but forgot what name he changed too. Seems Maserati will do this EV car and then an EV Ute according to "The Driven" web site. Soooooo, maybe they are going back to some of their roots with this Ute? ? https://thedriven.io/2019/10/01/maserati-races-to-catch-up-on-electric-mobility-with-a-hybrid-ute/

Thanks Drew, went out to the web site, https://www.pse.com/ but while they have an outage map, does not seem to have a grid map that says this is the areas PSE covers.

Should Cadillac have built this version of an early Escalade rather than give us the Cimmeron? https://www.facebook.com/Abimelecdesign/posts/1872878909525052

Jeep News: Jeep Issues Stop Sale on Gladiator
Even with a stop sale, reviews are still very positive about the Gladiator and even the Bison ZR2 which came in 2nd place in this review. In fact last place went to Toyota TRD Pro. https://www.motor1.com/reviews/372871/offroad-truck-comparison-ford-chevy-jeep-toyota/

Very cool Subaru Camper conversion. Smart Woman
-
Alternative Fuels & Propulsion RANDOM
Much appreciated Drew, I knew you would put it into layman terms that would make sense to me. Since the PNW does not have alternative power suppliers, all our power which is Hydro, Wind, Solar or Ocean derived is in the same bucket sold by the only power company around PSE.

Everyone, Would you pay $40,000 plus to have your old tired Miata restored to factory freshness or even better? Seems Mazda has a service that will do just that, read about it here: https://www.thedrive.com/news/29942/mazda-will-restore-your-na-miata-roadster-to-factory-perfection-for-40k Have to say, that for me, it would not be worth it but it is very cool!
