auto gauges Auto Gauges, Manual, Digital, Are They Even Needed?
G. David Felt replied to G. David Felt's topic in The Lounge
That dash is a tragedy for me and a deal breaker, could never own an auto like that. -
December 2017: General Motors Co.
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
Sorry it was not clear, pinched nerves in my hips and low back distracting me this week. Yes it does happen sometimes, but mostly no, you do not find the upgrading in the same badge that I have seen.- 48 replies

Climate Change says it will be underwater soon and naysayers say it will always be there as is. Been in drought mode, so gotta think about alternative places to live.

My Friend do you never get tired of shouting with all that bold fonts? Imagine EV Autocross!

BullShit! Calling you out, feeder base of Tahoe owners does NOT INSURE they will end up buying an Escalade. To many stories on the internet and too many facts to prove that cheap versions of a badge do not end up as high end purchases of the same badge. Chevy Buyers rarely cross shop and compare with cadillac. Same with Smart buyers cross shopping MB etc. etc. etc.- 48 replies

Industry News: Most Electric Cars Sold in the U.S. Are Leased
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
Wrong, EV leasing offers all auto companies a way to off set profits which in the end means having to pay the tax man. Much value to the bottom line. In regards to Effortlessly be kept in service, stop dreaming silly, Petro auto's often cause hours of wrench time to repair and keep running.- 33 replies

But But The online pictures show Florida is covered in Ice!

After looking at the Autocar story, clearly hinges are still exposed, zooming into the pictures, you can see the external screws that are on the existing on sale version are gone. Internal is the biggest update as the external is just a refresh to me. Is it worth 6 figures? Yes to some, no to others. price wise it exceeds Escalade which does tell me Cadillac needs a V Sport and V edition of the Escalade. Off road capability, no, leave it to have an equal off road version in GMC as a Yukon Denali, Hummer like edition. Will have to see in person if this would be of internal space to me to be in any consideration. External, is does nothing for me, just an overpriced bread box still.

Cheers for the EV movement of 2017!

Surprised at the low sales numbers, just 352,790 sold for 2017. I actually thought their sales numbers were much higher. Surprised by the low CUV numbers.

December 2017: Subaru of America
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
For such a small portfolio, some damn solid numbers. One does have to wonder how long the BRZ will stick around with such low numbers. Probably as long as Toyota builds a version, then Subaru will badge engineer it.- 4 replies

Best Year ever for Nissan, could that be because they have ignored it for so long that anything new will drive sales up?

December 2017: Mercedes-Benz USA
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
OMG They need to slash car models right now, so many double digit negatives, They could save a ton on R&D by cutting the low sale models. Kill off the following and that would give them mega bucks for their EV line. Smart G-Class AMG GT SL SLC S-Class B-Class That would allow them to increase funding for the EV-Class. After all business sense would say, if you cannot at least sell 25,000 of a model per year, why bother.- 6 replies

2018 is an exciting year as we see what EV concepts are shown as well as the move by all companies to embrace more CUV / trucks as they reduce the car thing, so much excitement, so little time to enjoy it all.

G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
Based on all your post, that is where every auto company should be cause everyone wants a CUV or truck. Honestly, I would rather see it 60/40 between CUV & Trucks / Cars. Still good for GM to have the products consumers want. One has to hope that when the and if the change comes back to majority cars, that GM responds fast. Will be interesting to see what changes if any come to the Bolt.- 48 replies

Fiat and Alfa bring nothing to the party but bleeding money for which the ignored American brands are expected to make up. One has to wonder how long FCA can continue on this pathetic path of CEO stupidity.

Jeep News: Spying: Jeep Yuntu Three-Row Crossover is Caught
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Jeep
Totally have to agree with you, especially after looking at the pictures, this does seem to be a stretched version of the Cherokee. I would expect much more for a Grand Wagoneer. At least built off GC / Durango platform or a full size Ram platform.- 11 replies
