My gut tells me we will see a much slimmer and smaller VW after this mess settles down.

Wish they would do the following colors: Bing Cherry - A dark heavy metallic purplish color covering a range from black to purple. Candy Apple Red - Anyone who knows the 60's should understand this lovely color Candy Apple Green - Same as the red note. Chromatic Paint jobs would be cool like the following: Heat Sensitive paint jobs would also be really cool: I was suprised to see this but for fun Thermal paint urinals seem to be the rage in the asian rim.

Have to say this drives the question of WHY such specific weird numbers to be built? Is this due to a limited supply of parts and so they are using up the parts and that will be it? I also question Sergio state of mind in killing off such an awesome Halo auto with nothing to replace it. Dodge does not needs an Italian POS auto as the new Halo. This also just reaks of Sergio continuing to steal all the profits from America for his Italian survival mode of trying to keep dead brands alive in some form rather than just accepting history and leaving them to the books. Sergio = IDIOT CEO that never really built anything just moved shells around to confuse and distract the IDIOT Board.

The BOLT not only shocked the world, but put pressure on all Auto OEMs. As to why we saw a rushed Tesla 3 shown and Hyundai announced their Ioniq or how ever you spell it EV auto with plug in VOLT competitor also to be out at the end of 2016 on lots 2017. I expect this 2nd Generation leaf to be shown early next year at one of the autoshows. Based on reading Nissan's web site about their EV plans, the engineers are pushing for mid 200 mile range, but I can understand the conservative nature of saying 210-220 which is a decent range for a compact like this. I am excited to see what the final EPA numbers are for the BOLT as GM still advertises full charge in 9 hrs at 25 miles per hr charge. So this would give the BOLT a 225 mile battery pack range. Over all the future of near silent gliding auto's is upon us.

Jeep News: Current Jeep Compass and Patriot To Stick Around For 2017
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Jeep
Is it eh! or Aa1 You Canadians sound so funny! -
Agree, monthly updates does suck but then security breaches suck more. I just hope we get sooner rather than later to having everything be HTML 5 so we can droip all the crappy java stuff, flash this and that, etc.

Jeep News: Current Jeep Compass and Patriot To Stick Around For 2017
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Jeep
This is understandable, wonder what the replacement will look like and what the over all fit n finish will be. This also tells me that some good deals will be available on these at the end of the year and early part of next year as they blow them out then. -
Review of the 2016 Mazda CX-9 from an existing CX-9 owner
G. David Felt replied to igozoom's topic in Reader Reviews
Cool review of yours gen one against the gen two. I feel that no matter how good the product is, unless they grow their dealer network and the customer base, they will get swallowed up in time by a larger company. -

340 models, they could greatly increase profitability by reducing that number in half to 170 models. Then also retire low volume versions. Wonder how this stacks up against the other OEM builders? Anyone have those figures quickly available?

That figure of money seems LOW for what a company should be planning for as I would expect them to be hit with fines also.

Holy Crap The Ford GT Is On Pole For Le Mans!

Very Cool! -
Very cool video, they have come a long way since the 80's of loading a bike.

Ramps. But it's the only way I'll get it down to Florida.Front of front tire to middle of rear tire is 76.5" Yeah ramps still just suck getting a bike into the bed of a truck. We used ramps to get my Daytona into the bed of a Silverado when I picked it up and it just always seems sketchy. Why not drive it down to Florida?!?! Well it sounds like it will fit with a little maneuvering it around if you put the front wheel in one of the corners, but the tailgate will have to be down. Wouldn't I put it along the center line of the truck? Why not drive it down? I"m a new rider and don't want to be on the bike for 1,200 miles. I want to stay down there for 2 or 3 weeks at a time, and being only on a motorcycle wouldn't work. I found Bikes Corner to Corner work out very well in truck beds. Load it up say on the left side of the tail gate and wheel it into the passenger right corner and strap it down. For short beds that always worked best for me.

WOW, until I looked at the upper left corner and saw the Chevy Logo, I thought they were showing off a Mazda. That long ass nose and over all body shape reminds me of a Mazda CX3.

Very cool, here is hoping for the best for them. -
I consider this to be another of Honda's recent failures. They have done Hybrid multiple times and always missed what the public wanted, they brought this back and again ignored what the public wanted. Honda seems to be living in the past and not paying attention to the future of what everyone is wanting or doing. Sad, cute little car, but just not what the public wanted from day one.

BMW News: BMW 7-Series To Not Offer A Diesel For U.S.
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in BMW
WOW, You really now NOTHING about Electric Motors. They OUT TORQUE Diesels and are far better economy, Diesel had their day and yet in places where electrical is still rare, 3rd world countries, diesel is king, but in modern places, electric is way better. Yes Diesels out Torque regular Petro, but like Petro they have to rev up to produce and give that Torque. Electric is 100% from zero and just keep going till it tops out. Enjoy your Diesel days now as they will be over soon and you can thank VW for that!
