Have to say, I got the 6.2L V8 and like the over all package, shame that you cannot get the warm brown interior with the All Terrain package. Yet came in at $55K, I am gonna have to build up a Denali and compare to see what the differences are. I hate all the chrome crap, but am interested in what is in the Denali loaded package. Weird, just reviewed the print option and they now only show it with the 5.3L V8. This makes no sense to me to not allow the buyer to have the engine of their choice with the packages of their choice.

Sweet looking truck, yet like @Cubical-aka-Moltar said, just a few tweaks and it would be perfect. I have to wonder if the designers were watching Twilight when they decided to put fangs on the Grill. Worthless, they should have just gone straight across. No matter what, the GMC is way better looking than the Chevy version.

Mercedez Benz News 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Brings Smoother Look, More Tech
Exterior is nice, I have to say it is their best looking SUV to date, even better looking than the G-Wagon. Dash is 21st Century Awesome. I have to give kudos to MB as I love the tech dash. Home run hit. Seats, I like the looks, but I worry they will be narrow and hard on us bigger guys. Gonna have to check this out when they hit the lot. Over all, great job MB. ?

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet Readies A New Strategy To Stop Ford and Dodge From Eating Camaro's "Lunch"
WOW, Been awhile since I looked at them, then again, I love my SUVs. Yet thank you for posting the pics, that is a pathetic trunk. So ya made me go look and WTF, Mustang has just as crappy a trunk. Looks like GM and Ford joined forces in the crappy trunk area. Clearly Challenger wins here for a trunk opening but also seems to have the same failed trunk design. Why is it so hard to have a proper opening. No wonder people love the CUV / SUV for hauling stuff. These trunks make it very hard to have as a daily driver, I give the win to Challenger for space access. Cool to hear, what all did you like about the interior of the Camaro over the Ford? So the interior is that much better than the Ford? I agree, like the Honda Mess, I think GM needs to roll out a MCE on the Camaro to fix the exterior style issues. Trunk issue, Window issues, etc. will have to be fixed in an all new model.

I so totally agree with this story and the thoughts of Kelley Blue Book's executive publisher. I think Camaro does need to be in the bottom entry level segment, but I still do not think they have gone far enough in fixing the image issues and value.

New York 2018: 2019 Subaru Forester Looks the Same, Adds More Tech: Comments
But, But. But the Germans say that is the Holy Grail of ultimate motors. After all the best luxury auto company in the world Mercedes-Benz tells me so that I am nothing without a inline 6 or better yet a turbo inline 6 motors! Wait didn't the US do the whole inline 4,6,8,12,16 thing already? ? ?♂️

Kia News: 2020 Kia Telluride Makes A Surprise Debut At New York Fashion Week
But leather door covered handles and mirrors? Seems like a maintenance nightmare. But then the wife says I have no fashion sense, so I leave the cloths shopping to hear and why I have three piles, one of shorts, one of jeans and one of polo shirts. Just grab a shirt and either a short or jean and I am good to go looking good for her.

BMW News: BMW X2 Gains M Performance Variant
My only issue with the German auto's is the over bloated way better than anything attitude people seem to have about especially MB and BMW. From the maintenance cost to the 30 year old design, not much has changed to give them the rep some think they have or deserve. I give kudo's as I think MB with with the EQC has a home run hit there. Right now I really like it and the Jag EV. Not sure which one I like better.

Acura News: 2019 Acura ILX Comes With A New Facelift
Nice to see the new grill on the car to match the CUVs, over all people should find it an attractive car if they are interested in one. The dash just seems to be a mess to me. It actually looks cheap based on the pictures.
