Maybe it is the Day After of when the next ice age will start! ?‍♂️

All the 1's and 0's maybe it is telling you someone in your household needs to work in the computer industry.

Could hit the DC charger while having lunch and recharge half the miles in 30 min.

Went back reread it and then checked the other EV sites and the loaded range was stated on the other sites. My bad, have to infer like you and @Cubical-aka-Moltar that based on the route and driver. Agree, goes out full comes back empty. Still see this as an inner city delivery and pickup truck so the 110 range I expect to be totally doable on a daily bases.

LOL, too funny in the Touchscreen Haters tour of the Tesla Model 3. http://www.thedrive.com/video/23350/a-touchscreen-haters-tour-of-the-tesla-model-3-touchscreen

Yes just a few hundred units overall, but from 6,845 to 9,339 is a big increase and your right X3 is the bulk of that growth.

According to the press release, 110 miles of a fully loaded truck. Focus is on inner city distribution with no nose or engine emissions. I think that is pretty good for moving up to 26,000 lbs. Better than the last cab over electric truck we discussed that was used on the east coast by the newspaper industry.

Bosch has announced that they will show at the IAA Commercial Vehicles show in Hannover Germany that they will have an E-mobility package for semi trailers. This package is expected to save truck drivers $11,574 dollars a year on refrigerated trailers. Bosch calculates this will save up to 238 gallons a year in fuel consumption and with the Boost function can save even more especially in going over mountain passes helping to reduce the CO2 emissions. Additional benefits is regenerative braking which will help with a quieter slowdown of a semi, longer brake life, hill assist starts and ascents. Bosch has also stated that they are looking into using this for automated parking of trailers in lots and remote control of trailers in ports and shipping destinations where movement of trailers in very short distances can be better optimized over having human truck drivers.

Should not be hard to do since it was like 10 plus years ago that Mitsubishi was relevant in the auto industry with the Fast n Furious franchise.

Maybe they all left for a superior luxury product as BMW is killing it in sales compared to MB numbers.

Following industry trends of car sales down, CUV sales up and they are surpassing car sale losses, very good.

WOW, BMW Truck sales killing it in picking up the slack from the loss of car sales.

I can see the following from SMK: This is to be expected as MB rolls out their vastly superior 2019 models of the best luxury product line on the planet.

More of the common theme, cars sales down, CUV sales up. August sales reduction though due to new models coming. Wish GM would figure out a way to have less inventory at change over to keep ATP higher on all model brands.

Getting all your Apples lined up in a row!

Car sales down, CUV sales up, pretty much on par with the industry. Surprised to see such a large drop on the Q3. Off set by the A3, A4, A5 sales.

Great to see them, I wonder since they import so much, how much of this was driven by people afraid of the Tariff war and wanting to buy cheaper before prices go up? ?

No matter how one looks at this, they have hit a homerun in every segment pretty much.

Got it, I have Roku boxes, so never thought about the Chromecast stick or Firestick. I try and stay agnostic to anyone platform for change of supplier.

To be expected that Fiat brand would continue it's demise into nothing. I would not be surprised to see them closing dealerships by 2020. No body with a common sense brain buys Fiat crap. Dodge dropped sales to be expected too. Surprised at the increase in Journey sales. Everything else as I expected.

Have you checked out YouTube TV? I find it has all of that in one package just about. Really happy with it.

Have to say that having cut the cord to the traditional TV companies has been liberating. I moved my parents and sisters off Comcast or what I call Comblastic probably 10 years ago to Fios TV which was way better at a lower cost, but after cost increases, I dropped Fios TV and landline phone 2 years ago and have been very happy with Netflix and Hulu. Yes, I missed my local channels but could not justify what was charged to just get local. I tried an HD antenna and for me it worked great. My parents and one sister wanted to cut the cord too finally and I tried the Lava 8008 HD antenna that works great for me on top of a hill with them, but discovered they live in a hole and do not get good reception. As such, when I researched above, I ended up going with YouTube TV for $40 a month. Sharing this cost with my parents and one sister. so all 3 of us have accounts in my Family group and can now see over 600 HD channels and all local. Have to say this is the future and really does show that we no longer need all the crazy costs of the other TV providers. Have a decent internet access and YouTube TV and you have a superior package compared to Comcast / xFinity or Fios TV or any other traditional provider. Yup and I stand by my statement!

If it was not for their CUVs, this company would be hurting big time.

Second company following Fords lead of Truck / SUV sales exceeding the cars sales loss of sales. Good for them.
