    @Drew Dowdell @Cubical-aka-Moltar @A Horse With No Name @ykX So this year, was 50, colonoscopy, total cardio and while I easily passed everything, I have put on weight, 310lbs. 40" waist. So September 1st I went into body builder mode. ?️‍♂️ Low fat, veggie, dairy and protein focused diet. Dropped 15lbs so far, gained an inch in the chest, lost one in the waist. making good weight gains in lifting. Gonna see how close I can get back to my college days of body building, but I admit, it will be hard as I do not see myself giving up wine and chocolate when I watch a movie over the weekend. Will keep ya guys updated, but no I doubt unless Cadillac brings back the Brougham that I will ever be back in a car as I like my comfort and need to always make sure I have room for myself in the seat behind myself. That way, I make sure everyone riding with me is comfortable. After all, Happy wife, Happy Kids, Happy Friends, Happy Life! Convinced the wife to give Skiing a try this year, so she is also in the gym with me working hard to get into better shape for Ski season! ⛷️ Now ya know how I measure rear seat room. Set the front seat for my comfort, get out, get in behind the front seat I just set and see how I fit.

    Those are the BOMB! If you ever get out to Seattle, John Howeys has a Tempura fried chocolate wrapped bacon with Jalapeno. It is awesome, comes with hot Maple Syrup! @A Horse With No Name Don't knock it till you try it. Very yummy, especially dipped in Maple Syrup. I would love a large Cadillac Brougham that has an adjustable suspension so when I want to, I can put it in V mode!

    So then every model has a distinct look and category for male, female and LGBTQA? ?

    Sorry Cubical, I have to down vote this. Even when I was 12 I was already 6' tall and my sisters were almost as tall as I even being older. Many people do not want a minivan or full size van to carry adults. Adult carrying is VERY IMPORTANT and I think many are to focused just on themselves the driver when you also need to think about others you carry. This is not a corner case but a much more common use case. I see it daily coworkers cramming into tiny cars, corpool in cars or SUVs and everyone is cramped it looks like. More common than many realize.

    ALWAYS RELEVANT!!! The biggest missed place in ALL AUTO REVIEWS is to clearly talk about how people sitting in the front will affect those sitting in the back. There is NEVER a perfect front seat sitting and back seat sitting that fits a perfect 4 or 5 adult placement. This is the LIE that the auto industry has not owned up to. You and your coworkers decide to go out to lunch and your the one who offered to drive. You and one coworker are US average size of 5'8" another is 5'6" tall but very large size and the other is 6'2" tall and you drive a Camry. Who sits where and why. IMHO, ALL Auto Reviews should cover sizing and how it fits for the AVERAGE American but also if you have Large size people or tall people or even very short. Just like many other areas in life that people either try to fit everyone into or ignor it totally, the interior space of sizing for a single person is a lie when you will always have a variety of sized people. They should clearly state a 4 adult person space seating in every car or SUV on how people will fit. Fine if 5'8" tall is the standard they want, but then clearly state how much head room, hip room, leg room, etc. is left or if there is not enough. We have discussed many times on how tight the compact to mid size 4 door sedan market is and how even when multiple OEMs state the same or near same seat size, one fits more comfy than another. The reviews are heavily biased on just the driver and not taking into account passengers. I could go on but I hope you get my point.

    @ocnblu You need to give this guy a big kiss as he has introduced legislation to end all EV tax breaks. https://www.autoblog.com/2018/10/12/senator-barrasso-end-federal-ev-tax-credit/

    Ouch crazy prices are bad for all, but then it is a capitalist society with what ever the market will bare.

    OUCH Ford is scaring people today with their $11 billion restructure plan and lay offs. @A Horse With No Name Seems the stock is down today to 2009 pricing. Recession level based on what this story is saying. https://jalopnik.com/fords-layoff-plan-is-making-a-ton-of-people-nervous-re-1829751888 https://corporate.ford.com/homepage.html Weird that no official info is on their web site.

    @William Maley How is the interior space for big people? I grew up with my parents having a 626, my moms car and later my oldest sister got a Mazda 6 in 2007 which if I was in the front no one could sit behind me. So how is the interior space and rear headroom with that coupe sedan design?

    An SUV to make ya go H'mmmmm ? Interesting how they got this from that above.

    Yesterday was a weird day, driving on the freeway and no time to snap a pic but saw an AMC Javlin kind like this one off the web. Have to say I kinda like the body design. Maybe just a nice big change form the over abundance of the mustang and camaro everywhere I look. Also as I was exiting I saw an old metro van like this: Wife asked what it was as she had not seen anything like it before. Weird day with old iron that you rarely see anymore.

    Bummer, sorry it did work but the web site seems to kill their older pages.

    Disagree, their Debt load is so big, I suspect that the next recession will cause them to finally have to go bankrupt to unload their excessive legacy debt and pension obligations.
