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.

I agree, The web site says they have it for the Colorado, but no pictures. They do have a black bow-tie that is back-lit or any other unlit color.

BMW News: BMW X2 Gains M Performance Variant
Nice Power and yet with that said, this looks like every other subcompact CUV on the market with a BMW Grill. The interior distracts you with the bright red interior but is a 1990's dated mess. I honestly do not see anything special that would make me want to buy this with an overpriced price-point. Meh ?

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Becomes Burlier With Bison
I agree that the truck is gnarly and I also do not like the all black plastic grill. That is the one Item I would go 3rd party on getting a replacement for. Would rather have a black chrome grill with a Black chevy logo than the plastic with Chevrolet name on it. Something like this is not bad, better than what GM did.
