The exterior is Forgettable. Just a Blah looks like every other MB car is the the S-class or A? Best part of this car is the interior dash view. I like what they are showing here.

I honestly do not remember the federal details, but every airline does have a policy you need to review in regards to what they will do and not do or cover and the amount of time they promise to rectify the issue. Here is the two links that cover what you are asking for from our GOV: https://www.transportation.gov/airconsumer/baggage https://www.transportation.gov/airconsumer/fly-rights To quote the site: Limits on liability Airlines assert a limit on their liability for delayed, lost or damaged checked baggage. When your luggage and its contents are worth more than the liability limit, you may want to purchase "excess valuation," if available, from the airline as you check in. This is not insurance, but it will increase the carrier's potential liability. The airline may refuse to sell excess valuation on some items that are especially valuable or breakable, such as antiques, musical instruments, jewelry, manuscripts, negotiable securities and cash. On domestic trips, the airline can invoke a liability ceiling that is regulated by DOT and that is adjusted for inflation every two years. That limit is currently $3,500 per passenger. On international round trips that originate in the United States, the liability limit is set by a treaty called the Montreal Convention. This treaty also governs liability on international round trips that originate in another country that has ratified this Convention, and one-way trips between the U.S. and such a country. This international limit is adjusted for inflation every five years; it is currently 1,131 Special Drawing Rights. The SDR is a currency surrogate that floats daily; go to www.imf.org[external link] to see the current value in dollars. At this writing 1,131 SDRs was worth about $1,675. The international limit applies to domestic segments of an international journey. This is the case even if the domestic and international flights are on separate tickets and you claim and re-check your bag between the two flights. Keep in mind that the liability limits are maximums. If the depreciated value of your property is worth less than the liability limit, this lower amount is what you will be offered. If the airline's settlement doesn't fully reimburse your loss, check your homeowner's or renter's insurance; it sometimes covers losses away from the residence. Some credit card companies and travel agencies offer optional or even automatic supplemental baggage coverage. Special liability requirements apply to the domestic transportation of assistive devices used by passengers with disabilities. See the publication New Horizons: Information for the Air Traveler with a Disability.

Finally Facebook is being hit for selling off their user data! Should have happened months ago. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/FB

Guess when you live in a state that has the cheapest electric rates in the nation and is state controlled so it takes Voters approval to increase rates, one does not worry about WS taking it over. 6 cents per kWh makes it a deal to drive EV.

WOW, Clearly they must not sell well there as you cannot find one here that is AWD in that price range. Must be our tech boom that is keeping prices at msrp cause that pricing gets ya FWD. Interesting. If I was interested in one, it would even with having to pay sales tax make it worth the PTO time to go out of state, buy it and drive it back home.

Seems like he might have passed on July 23rd as various news outlets state the hospital put him on life support to allow his family to get to the hospital. Once his partner and sons where there, they turned off the machines. SAD and I wish the best for a recovery of his family.

I have to disagree, at $37,000 you have a FWD stripped appliance Q3, you have to move into the mid $45K range to get an AWD proper luxury CUV. The Envision is not Lackluster especially when you can pickup a near fully loaded one with discounts at $40k. I would take the ultra quiet Envision over the current Q3 on the market.

Very cool and next years 60 kWh battery pack will be liquid cooled rather than air and should be way better than this 40 kW pack.

I like the sliding comparison of photos of incoming model versus outgoing model on this Porsche CUV. https://www.motor1.com/news/258583/porsche-macan-side-by-side/ I have to say I still love the look of the Chrysler Me Four Twelve and they should have built it. https://www.motor1.com/news/258494/chrysler-me-four-twelve-concept-we-forgot/

Porsche has a very loyal fan following and yet with that said they have really only ever built a couple cars that I truly liked. Porsche 928, their first front engine car that I really liked and then their traditional mid engine but sexy 959. Amazing what prices are happening for the 959. http://www.thedrive.com/news/22402/1985-porsche-959-prototype-expected-to-go-for-around-1-5-million-at-auction

@frogger Interesting as the Euro dash is much better than the American dash Will just posted. The American 2019 Q3 dash is more on par with the Buick Encore and Cadillac XT4 I feel. Style tweaks between the 2019 and 2018 not so much noticeable to me. I think for the difference of $5000 there is more than enough people who will be happy with the less peppy Buick motor over the Q3 price. Agree, but for the current $5,000 price difference, does the current 2018 Audi really make it that much better than the Encore?

How do you guys feel about the Buick Encore Premium version going up against the Q3? There is no Avenir version yet for the Encore and the Q3 competes against the Encore. So a fully loaded is $38,550 compared to a fully loaded Q3 Premium Plus Sport 2.0 TFSI Quattro tiptronic at $43,674. It is interesting to note that Audi uses a 2.0L Turbo 4 requiring Premium fuel for 200HP/207 lb-ft of torque compared to Buicks 1.4L Turbo 4 using regular fuel for 153 HP / 177 lb-ft of torque both auto's in AWD.

Agree, very sudden,, but then if rumors are correct that it was an embolism caused by the risky surgery, then this was to be expected. http://www.autonews.com/article/20180724/OEM02/180729864/sergio-marchionne-embolism-cancer-surgery-italian-report?AID=%2F20180724%2FOEM02%2F180729864 http://autoweek.com/article/car-news/marchionne-suffered-embolism-during-cancer-surgery https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-07-25/sergio-marchionne-ceo-who-steered-fiat-chrysler-dead-at-66

GNX yes for the Sedans, but a GNX type treatment for the CUVs would be an outstanding Halo CUV for them. Or apply a GMC Typhoon but luxury Performance Focus to the Buick CUV lineup.

RIP, wishing the best to his partner and their two sons. Be interesting to see what the official cause of death is.

I have never had these problem using those types of gas cans. Maybe the guy did not read or follow instructions. Yes, Yes he did from City, to county, to state and federal, every corrupt unstable political hasbeen.

RIP Sergio, I never cared for how he managed FCA, but my thoughts go out to his family on their loss. I do have to question how a simple procedure ended up taking his life so soon. I hope they release his autopsy results.

Buick needs a Grand National version on their CUV's just as GMC needs to bring back a Typhoon / Syclone version for their truck / CUV line. Not everyone wants just luxury only. How about some luxury with performance American Style!

Yup plenty, but that still does not mean that we cannot give Americans a break on cost of getting around.

That was my wonder if the Platinum is their most popular package as the v-sport is awesome, but I cannot see it selling as well as the Platinum. No matter what, gotta be happy with the ATPs that Cadillac is getting for their awesome product. Interesting package levels for the 2018 models: WHY is there not a consistent naming of all levels between all products? ATS - base, luxury, premium luxury, premium performance, V CTS - base, luxury, premium luxury, v-sport, v-sport premium luxury, V XTS - base, luxury, premium luxury, platinum, v-sport platinum CT6 - base, luxury, premium luxury, platinum, XT4 - base, luxury, premium luxury, sport XT5 - base, luxury, premium luxury, platinum, Escalade - base, luxury, premium luxury, platinum You can build your XT4 here https://www.cadillac.com/crossovers-suvs/xt4-crossover/build-and-price/trim My XT4 built the way I would want it with Autumn Metallic and Sedona interior color came out to $57,150. One thing already I AM NOT happy on with the XT4 is you have to pay $1,500 for the Cadillac User Experience to get Apple Carplay or Android Auto. Not fine, should be included in all levels of the stereo system. This also requires you adding the Bose Centerpoint surround sound audio system for another $1,500 dollars. As a comparison to the XT5, AWD Platinum fully loaded is $72,945

Very Cool, This makes me wonder how Cadillac does on their various name plates. ?

Z4 versus Supra Which one do I like best. Hate to say it but the Supra looks better even in Camo. https://jalopnik.com/oh-cool-its-the-toyota-supra-and-bmw-z4-just-hanging-ou-1827837643 Plenty of close up pics of the Supra and Z4 at the story link above.

I for one would not rent out my auto's as renters tend to not take care of an auto and flog them. Yet with that said I wish GM well with this new rental model. https://www.maven.com/us/?evar25=GM_COM_Our_Brands Hmmmm ?
