Buick to launch Avenir as high-end sub-brand
True, I hate the whole alpha numeric thing, but I do think there are universal names that the world for the most part can rally around.

I care as I want GM to have well received Global products that have a global name. Time to move forward with auto's that people can rally around. Just saying!

Buick to launch Avenir as high-end sub-brand
Agree, I think they need to up their game on the interior. I wonder if anyone actually ever still thinks about translation of the word into Chinese or any other language? Avenir translated from French to English means Future! Future translated to Chinese means wèilái. Buick LaCrosse wèilái

Interesting thought, but I not sure you want a Buick CHAO. That is what Super translates into in Chinese. http://dictionary.hantrainerpro.com/chinese-english/translation-chao_super.htm

Awesome Is this why the last few weeks, maybe even longer things were slower to come up? It was weird that I would click on my C&G link and it would take minutes to actually come up. Right now, checking out the site everything is very snappy!

VW News: Rumorpile: Volkswagen T-Roc Crossover to Head to U.S.
WOW, Only took them 3 years to decide to do it and another 2 years to actually get it to production. So 5 year old CUV when it becomes released in the US. Nothing like Stale Bread and Turned Wine!

Tesla Officially in Trouble, Business Insider Says!
JD Powers just posted their official report on Tesla. They say the current owners of Tesla S & X see themselves as early adopters and quality issues are just part of being an early adopter. With this said they still love their Tesla! Yet with the Tesla 3, the Mass market will be far less forgiving and this is a concern for JD Powers as they point out that even Musk has gotten in on testing the X as it started to come off the assembly line due to bugs. http://www.jdpower.com/press-releases/tesla-beyond-hype

@oldshurst442 Agree on all the love for the Female Form and the confusion their brain causes. What, you do not want your self driving auto to go through a white Semi truck trailer?

Tesla Officially in Trouble, Business Insider Says!
Good point, I use the bus to get into and out of the city for work. So I do not commute in my own auto any longer. I get what you mean, in heavy traffic, might as well have the auto do it all and allow you to do something else.

^^^ I have no use for the self driving adaptive cruise mode either, but a larger battery, AWD HUD for sure. Two Items I wish I could get on the BOLT. Bigger battery and AWD. 3rd nice to have, HUD.

Tesla Officially in Trouble, Business Insider Says!
As I posted in the other thread; A writer on Electrek web site created his own web site to gather info about what potential owners of the Tesla 3 want for options. https://electrek.co/2017/03/21/tesla-model-3-options-autopilot-battery-upgrade/ Interesting is that pretty much everyone wants the full self driving autopilot at $8,000 and a battery upgrade which the first option is $5,000. This makes every Tesla 3 not a $35,000 auto but a $48,000 auto to start. The web site the writer created: https://model3tracker.info/ His results todate:

I have to disagree, the Tesla will have it's hard core fans much like Apple. But more premium look? Come on, that is totally opinion. I find the Tesla 3 to be ugly, not inspirational at all. Too low to the ground. I have been in and driven a Bolt and they are premium interior and excellent CUV style for a compact.

I honestly could see VW do a rebadge job of Signature Auto's for Costco.

Buick Teases 2018 Enclave Before New York: Comments
Already having these motors as parts bin material makes it easy to add in a gas guzzling V8 near the end of the product cycle before the next all new version. The world has changed and even in the wealthy circle, other than the brand snobs, I doubt we will see big engines continue much past 2020.

Word Games as they focus on seeing where to cut fat and how to focus the products to not step on each other. Expect closure and layoffs.

What's the Best 3/4-Ton Work Truck for 2017?
Great Post, Over all solid for all the trucks, I think they all did and got what they deserved based on old age. Surprised by the Bed on the Chevy. I have to think that something was still off as I have never seen a bed bend unless improper loading. But good for Ford as the winner. GM I am sure is looking to finally update this workhorse as the 6.0 is ready fro retirement and they have much better options now.
