    Other than the engine change, the Vega didn't really have any major revisions during it's 71-77 run. Federal bumpers and a revised nose and taillights in '74, grille change in '76...the Pinto went through more styling changes during it's longer run, albeit minor also.

    It seems GM (and Ford) really didn't take subcompacts seriously then and invested the minimal amount getting them out with no concern about quality, durability, or reliability.
  3. Robert Hall
    Good idea. Though I think it should have been on the Colorado platform and more of a Bronco competitor...more off-roady per it's namesake..
  4. Robert Hall
    Yeah, it seems stuck as the minivan brand right now...and they have the Italian filler brands above it in the way (Alfa and Maserati).

    More performance versions are always a good thing. Performance might be identical to a Dodge SRT, but different styling--I'd have the Dodge look like a Charger sport wagon. That's what I like about Jeep GC variations....they've got luxury, off-road and performance trims in the mix. Chrysler is a dead brand I'm afraid.
  6. Robert Hall
    Of course, with Jeep they could do luxury also with a Jeep Eagle Summit. Have a Trailhawk and Trackhawk versions (differentiated from Dodge Magnum SRT, which would be more street and performance). For the Jeep version I'm thinking something conceptually ala the Volvo V90 CC or Audi Allroad. (I love the idea of a Jeep Eagle sport wagon).
  7. Robert Hall
    Yes. Though maybe a differently styled Magnum version for Dodge also. I think a second gen Magnum wagon w/ Charger styling would have been nice.
  8. Robert Hall
    Too bad FCA hasn't made an Outback-ish wagon....would love to see the Eagle name return for an AWD LX-based wagon, with Hellcat option of course.

    I saw a couple at my neighborhood VW dealer in Phoenix back in 2017...sat in one. Seemed like a neat wagon.

    Instead of a big investment to JV or build from scratch a new model to try and enter an existing segment, they should be bold and offer the existing Sprinter truck versions here, maybe with a deeper pickup style bed instead of the shallow tilt bed....focus on the commercial market like the Sprinter vans.
  11. Robert Hall
    Half hearted, minimal effort entry into the global pickup market. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

    When people stop buying new? I don't know how prices can continue to escalate.

    I would assume the Mach E EV will be similar to this...I think we will see more of these type of wagonish CUVs coming to replace sedans.. trans genre vehicles that are car like, and CUV like...maybe the Venza was too early.
  14. Robert Hall
    Would be a nice-to-have..my reverse camera gets gunked over in inclement weather.
  15. Robert Hall
    Evolution...a car-like CUV, almost a 'wagon'. Reminds me of the Venza profile.
  16. Robert Hall
    Speaking of the Fusion, sounds like the name may be on a new global CUV for 2021... https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/ford-resurrect-mondeo-global-mid-sized-crossover?utm_medium=EMAIL&utm_campaign=Enews Bulletin&utm_content=ACAR ENews Bulletin - SUBS AD V4 (1) 16.7.19::hero_image&utm_source=20190716

    Temporary as in I like to have the cremains in boxes I can move from house to house. Not planning on being in this house w this yard forever.. have a cabinet w the boxes and photos of fur kids past...

    Love the roofline and proportions of the 2nd gen Corvair coupes. Saw a new 2020 Explorer on the road today, gray with a temporary plate. Sharp, first I’ve seen on the road. Also saw a gray w white stripes 2019 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350, also w a temporary plate.
  19. Robert Hall
    That is a bit strange. I prefer cremation so I have a little box to put on a shelf; wouldn't bury a dog in the yard since yards are temporary.
  20. Robert Hall
    Dog videos are always fun..here are a couple w/ two of my favorite breeds, Yorkies and Australian Terriers.

    Saw a 20 year old Navigator this afternoon in this Monocromatic style--black, with stock rims painted black, grille blacked out.. someone was ahead of the curve...;)
  22. Robert Hall
    Wow... I've never checked the mileage of my sister's Trax, but I've seen 25 or better occasionally in my 3.6 GC on road trips.
  23. Robert Hall
    Speaking of disappearing diesel options, I saw Ford was cancelling their US market diesel Transit Connect...apparently it was announced last year but never produced.
  24. Robert Hall
    I like that two tone interior, but those exterior color choices are bland..I like the other color choices they have across the range, like the blues, reds, and silver green.
