  1. The wagons are fantastic. I'd love a V90 CC
  2. Big difference in size there.
  3. Since you've all had time to cool your heals, I've reopened the thread.
  4. I drove the Aviator and Explorer back to back last week (reviews to come)…. and aside from dimensions they have very very different personalities.
  5. Can't let it sit and be a garage queen.
  6. Quarters are better for mid-year checkups.
  7. All of the manufacturers make good money on CPO stuff.
  8. Toronto? It would have to be someplace with some panache, but still irrelevant to the auto industry. Will all VW's get renamed to letternumber?
  9. I don't know what GM is doing these days, there are no deals on anything except trucks.
  10. Yeah, but they're not continuing with Continental in a few years and the MKZ will probably go when the Fusion dies. That makes Lincoln an all SUV brand. I drove a C 43 AMG Cabrio last week and the exhaust note on that thing is fantastic when the helm gets the "all ahead full" command.
  11. Apparently UPS is using self driving tractor trailers on a fixed route in the southwest.
  12. You mean dump from the US used market into India? Are cars are too big unless you're sending Sparks, Sonics, and Fiestas.
  13. Probably not going to happen for Aero and weight reasons.
  14. A DSG is a different animal than an automatic. It would be more accurate to describe it as an "Automatically shifting manual transmission". They're good for sports cars, but they have their faults in situations like stop and go traffic where they can get grabby and jittery.
  15. "Ran when parked" So some of you know I'm driving my FiL's Cruze from time to time. I took it on a trip to Virginia today and it's not a bad car for long distance cruising. It's the base LS with a 1.8 liter, but it still cruised at 75 - 85mph and returned 34 mpg
  16. The C8 is supposed to be SuperCruise capable.
  17. I think it looks good for a dedicated off-roader.
  18. Ahead of the 2019 SEMA show in Las Vegas, Chevrolet gave us a preview of the 2021 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2. After the refresh, the Colorado will show greater differentiation from trim to trim. All Colorados will feature embossed Chevrolet tailgates instead of the rear bowtie badge. The bowtie up front will be revised. The WT, LT, and Z71 will get updated center bars, lower fascias, and front skid plates for 2021. The WT and LT get gold bowties while the Z71 gets a black one. The ZR2 off-road variant gets a new look (shown above), and will be the only Colorado to get a lettered front fasica. The ZR2 continues to get Multimatic DSSV Position senstitive dampers, standard front and rear locking differentials, 2-inch suspension lift, 3.5 inch wider track, off-road rocker protection, cast iron control arms, autotrac transfer case, multiple skid plates, and now standard red tow hooks. Over 520,000 Colorado pickups have been built to date. The Colorado will continue to be built at GM's Wentzville Plant and the 2021 will go on sale midway through next year. View full article
