Hyundai News:Hyundai Santa Cruz Pickup is Still Coming
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
Keep it in perspective, we DO NOT have a state Income tax and our property taxes are still some of the lowest in the country. Sales tax is 10% but so is California which also has a state income tax. Pay as you go state.- 42 replies

Phil Murphy is the Gov since Jan 2018. How is the current price the blame of Chris Christy? Do not get me wrong as I think he is a criminal as well as a bad gov, but just wondering how the current gas price is his fault?- 42 replies

Plenty of people living in the past and no lost jobs, just a change in what job they have on the assembly line, at the charging station, etc.

Nope, regular unleaded. Premium Diesel I usually fuel up at Fred Meyers and they were $3.179 that morning and now $3.199 in the afternoon. Crazy, But I use the following site to check out prices. http://www.washingtongasprices.com/GasPriceSearch.aspx This site is focused on washington but uses the Gas buddy search engine.- 42 replies

I have to agree, not sure what specifically it is, but this is the first honda I have actually ever liked other than my Honda Boat motor. That little 10HP motor is awesome.

Happy B-Day, hope you had a blast!

What? ? You mean I have to have integrity, honesty and not blame it all on #FakeNews? Humans never tell a lie!

Hard time believing a company that created the defeat devices and then now says that no new hardware is needed, just a tweak on existing hardware to meet the 2020 emissions standards. Yea, PASS on Bosch and diesel.

Very funny but interesting read: https://jalopnik.com/jeep-s-success-and-hyundai-s-losses-illustrate-why-ford-1825562558

I agree, I hope Honda rethinks about it China only. At least bring it in as a true Honda here. I think it would sell well to the Honda Faithful.

Seems Honda has a new sub brand called Everus and showed off their first EV auto for the Chinese market. https://www.autoblog.com/2018/04/25/honda-everus-ev-concept-beijing/#slide-7315575

Seems Bosch is trying to sell a new Snake oil potion that requires no new hardware but reduces Diesel to below the new 2020 standards on emissions for Europe. https://www.autoblog.com/2018/04/25/bosch-diesel-emissions-breakthrough/ I really hope auto companies ignore this and move forward with the superior Hybrid / EV quiet auto's.

OUTSTANDING INFO on Recalls https://www.iseecars.com/recalls This actually shows the current YTD #'s and it is very interesting. As of today 4/26/2018

Thank you, missed that post. Recalls also can be greatly taken out of context when you only have a chart and not the full picture and the start of the story is spot on I think when you then take the charts into account. QUOTE: "An analysis covering three decades of auto recalls says Porsche has the lowest recall rate and Volkswagen Group the highest. General Motors has the best recall timeliness of the major automakers. Tesla earns the top spot for recall proactiveness. iSeeCars.com analyzed automakers’ new-vehicle sales and NHTSA recall data from January 1985 through September 2016 to calculate three metrics: Recall rates demonstrating how often a manufacturer produces a vehicle with a defect relative to the number of cars it sells. Recall timeliness indicating how quickly and willing an automaker is to identify problems with its cars and initiate a recall within three years. Recall proactiveness reflecting the extent to which an automaker’s recall stemmed from its own investigation or NHTSA’s. " Be interesting to see if iseecars.com allows one to look at these figures in 5yr chunks.
-
So then what web site did you use and I will happily grab the data to look at?
-
@ccap41 Can you please at least just look at 2000 till now or 2008 till now as I would love to see the chart for the auto industry for the last 10 and 20 years of Recalls. Data like this would be very good at showing current trends better if broken down into 5 year segments. Thank you,

That tailgate better be able to handle 500lbs. I have never had a truck that could not handle me standing on it and unloading rocks, bark, etc. Failures of any kind can hurt people and all should be a recall as a matter of consistency.

How about we stop padding the very old history of GM and drop the 80's and 90's and focus on the last 18 years. That is the core of the auto's on the road today and I can tell you GM will not be the top dog. As @Cubical-aka-Moltar states the Recall Rate Per 1,000 cars is very interesting and I bet even the Germans will jump up there if you look at the 2000 to 2018 period only compared to when they were very small in the 80's and 90's. So tell us where this chart came from as I would like to see the source myself. Thank you,

Totally disagree with you as the wood dash trim is lacquer coated and not plastic, but I can see how some would see it as plastic. CX-9, what a joke that is the biggest plastic crap CUV around and way over rated. Spent weeks in one of their new top end and wrote a review on it. Terrible power, gas guzzler, plastic crap everywhere, terrible seats, I would never recommend it to even an enemy. You can get fully loaded Envisions for 40K, not the MSRP 54K. I posted about that too in regards to my sister and many people who have been in it love it especially her best friend who is a lexus lover and now looking to replace her lexus cuv with the Buick due to the far superior interior and room on top of how quiet it is. Room in the Envision beats out the CX-9 both front and back seats even though it is a smaller CUV for 5. Spent far to much time in all the auto's you mention and the only thing to step up from the Buick would be the Cadillac you mention.

@ccap41 SMK had called this same type of screen sitting on the dash a floating screen. I was quoting him. LOL
