    Yeah, given how much he likes EVs you would think he would have one for himself. For most couples I know, each spouse has a vehicle that pretty much only they drive.
  2. Robert Hall
    Correct..the new generation of Focus won't be sold here, as part of Ford's 'kill-all-cars-except-for-Mustang' US strategy for failure..

    400hp, 470ft/lbs torque...RWD. I'm sure it drives great..no Camry or Corolla would drive like that..

    It will be interesting see what sort of machines people build with a 1000hp supercharged Hemi. If I were in that game, I'd build something using an Imperial or Chrysler 300 from around 1970. Big engine in a big car..
  5. Robert Hall
    And the mid engined C8 will be presumably built in the US, but it's not here yet.
  6. Robert Hall
    Way cool..the color and flared fenders remind me of the icy environment Charger from the last F&F movie, but more realistic.

    I would assume given the market shift to CUVs, SUVs and trucks away from sedans Toyota will invest more in new trucks and SUVs.

    I enjoy looking at old cars for their styling at car shows--whether original survivors or restorations, but I really wouldn't enjoy driving them. I like the driving dynamics of modern vehicles w/ strong brakes, good handing and steering, predicable reliability, and most important to me--- comfortable and adjustable seats, a modern sized steering wheel w/ adjustable column, and modern cabin amenities (not to mention modern safety equipment). I'm not 85, so driving something from 1949 just doesn't resonate w/ me...seems like it would be more tedious and tiresome than enjoyable. I do like the idea of resto mods that combine modern drivability w/ the classic styling.

    Perfect for Halloween...

    Seems like it would drive more a Tesla Model S. Fast, quiet, smooth...not the creaky horror of driving a 70 yr old car with primitive brakes, suspension, steering, etc.

    They should have the steps in the front bumper also, for climbing up to check the oil, replace the air filter, etc.

    Very cool custom, glad to see a stock body instead of the usual trite chopped top. I'm sure the driving experience is much more enjoyable with a modern drivetrain, modern brakes, modern suspension than with the '40s hardware.
  13. Robert Hall
    Wow..an electric motor mated to an old school racing Turbo 400 and solid rear axle. Surreal to think about.
  14. Robert Hall
    Way cool concept. But I suspect the old-school Camaro fans will flip their gray mullet wigs over this.
  15. Robert Hall
    That chart will be interesting to see in a year after the new generation of GMs and Rams have been on sale for a while..
  16. Robert Hall
    The original article isn't clear on whether they are lumping Chevy and GMC together or not.
  17. Robert Hall
    Unknown..just talking hypotheticals..it's not going to happen, but more a what if.
  18. Robert Hall
    Not Toyota, but GMC. GMC's annual sales are very close to Ram. (I'm not lumping Chevy and GMC together).
  19. Robert Hall
    True, but Cadillac would need a new unibody RWD/AWD SUV platform if they were going to take on the GL, Cayenne, etc with a handling-oriented performance SUV..
  20. Robert Hall
    The driving w/ the lights off could be a side effect of DRLs and the always lit gauges in modern cars. (floroluminescent?). It used to be you had to turn on at least the parking lights to have dash lights, but newer IPs have the gauges always lit.
  21. Robert Hall
    There is definitely a small performance luxury SUV niche out there, with the Cayenne Turbo, Bentayga, Urus, GL63 AMG all over $100k and over 500hp. An Escalade V series could be a larger, more spacious but less handling-oriented alternative.
  22. Robert Hall
    This is the Chevy from last year.
  23. Robert Hall
    A guy a couple streets over has an old Camaro in his Halloween display this year..had a rustbucket '57 Chevy 2dr sedan last year.
  24. Robert Hall
    I didn’t really have a ranking, just reverse chronological order.
  25. Robert Hall
    On some vehicles they can be turned off. They can be turned off on my Jeep, for instance.
