  1. Another of the over used Coupe roof design on a CUV. Time for them to come up with something original.
  2. But what happens when a bird takes a BIG Poo on the auto blocking the camera's vision and sensors. Who is gonna get out and wipe it?
  3. Wrong Twiddle Dee, That was Uber with their Volvo running the red lights.
  4. Very Cool While not wanting a self driving auto myself, glad to see this is happening as far too many idiots are on the road causing trouble. Better to have the computer drive them.
  5. True, and Yes, my apologies to the OP and anyone else, I have just heard so many poor me stories lately from people who choose to go this route and do not achieve their dreams and then cry a river. My own son is a Graphic Design graduate who runs a group at a high tech company. Bachelors of Graphic Design. I just never think of those careers you listed as people doing that work are focused, driven and productive. It's the ones such as a young man I know who's parents supported him in getting his BA in Art History, then went on to get a masters in Asian Art and every time I see him he is always complaining about no jobs. Worthless education to my way of thinking. I like the young man and am friends with his father but would have never supported my son if he had wanted to study such a field.
  6. OK, Name some, other than the rare 1/10th of 1 % artist, I have yet to find a Liber Art degree that can insure employment that can actually pay off the crazy amounts of money people have spent on Liberal Art degrees. Unless your born with a silver or gold spoon in your mouth so you do not have to figure out how to pay off your college education or how to support yourself, I have yet to find any that truly can support ones self let alone a family. These are the ones that lived life high, did minimal work in college and now have 6 figures of debt, work at some bar or other low paying job and cry about how unfair life is as they cannot afford to pay their student loans. Same kind of lifer students I have run into in Europe and the elsewhere. People complain about quality paying jobs and yet never think about the kind of education they really need to make a decent living. Nothing against liberal arts degrees, but they rarely ever pay back what they cost.
  7. Right prove that was not self driving based on the stuff on top of the auto. They are clearly just trying to flaunt laws.
  8. Liberal Arts = WORTHLESS DEGREE!
  9. Agree, I think with all the crazy weather more and more wish they had AWD.
  10. Have to say I like the style and interior far better than Tesla! Love the battery range options too, 300 mile or 400 mile battery pack. Course they are going for an even higher income level person than most Tesla owners. Be interesting to see if they survive or get bought in the future.
  11. @A Horse With No Name Awesome I totally understand and wish you the best with your projects, family and Auto's. Course I hope when you test drive the Buick is the winner for you, Go Domestics!
  12. Awesome write up Bill, learned some things about the eco diesel. Very interesting truck. Thank you
  13. This is the start of trade wars due to Idiot God's Messenger opens mouth and inserts foot.
  14. Interesting, sound like an EV, whether an ICE could happen would depend on if the MEB platform once stretched kept the ability to allow this., If the only focus on the EV then I would say no to the ICE, but that would limit it to the world markets.
  15. So very true and it is such a nice comfy feeling on long road trips. I love the wood sections that are also cut to have nubs that actually allow for better control and grip on the steering wheel too!
  16. OK, Too many things on the brain to think about what feature is in my Escalade ESV Platinum that is not in the others. Pretty please just tell me.
  17. Good Link, shows GM does need to look at trimming production, but also I would agree that they are stocking units to deal with line change over for new models. Common approach to dealing with changes that will have production offline and yet allows them to still have product on the sales lot to sell. Worth keeping an eye on, but not a big deal at this time.
  18. Some golden rules I have always lived by: Pay yourself first, no company or any other person will. This way you have retirement. Balance work and Personal Life. Many companies preach this, but few actually deliver on it and sadly many managers got their position by politics and not from being mentored to be a better person and how to properly manage people and grow a group. Hence the need for balance. Take time out for yourself!!! This is an important one as we all need a break from partners, spouses, boyfriend / Girlfriend. No matter what, make sure to take time our for yourself. Work out and Eat for Life! This world is a complex place and you need to make sure you are in tip top shape as you never know when a curve ball will come and take you out. Live Life to the Fullest! We all make various incomes, but we still need to live life to the fullest so that you have a positive experience of being able to say when I do check out I had the best life I could make for myself.
  19. Believe it when I see it. I cannot believe Google would partner with such a mess of a company like FCA.
  20. Let me know how it goes, I would be interested.
  21. Disagree, there have been plenty of NA engines that did better than this turd did. Problem is this is a one of those over rev'd engines with 205 HP, but only 156 lbs-ft of torque. 40 to 50 more ft-lbs of torque would have helped big time. Course Olds Quad 4 900HP 4 banger would be awesome too.
  22. I invite you to go try as I was surprised on how tight it was and having to bend my head down. There is not much room in the back if you have a large person up front. Very tight.
  23. Just another 40-50 ft-lbs if torque from base RPM would have changed how the car drove.
