    I feel his pain

    just take his passport and if he qualifies for bail... then that's that

    I work with one Canadian and it is hilarious when he gets mad and lets out a string of cusswords punctuated with "eh"

    An FCA inline 6 would make a great competitor to Fords 2.7 V6 and the new 4-cylinder Silverado.... all fairly close in displacement, but the FCA version, by virtue of being an I6, should be the smoothest and most powerful of them all.

    AT4 is mostly an appearance package. 15 HP? You'll never notice it when it already has 420 other horses.

    I don't know where GM package planners' heads are these days, but it isn't in a good place. I'm an old-time GM guy and I have a hard time seeing the value in GM offerings these days They just did the Tacoma.

    Some people really close to getting banned in this thread. Clean it up folks.

    I"m sure it is coming.

    I like that house.

    There seems to be a lot of wiggle room in what counts as it's own model and it generally changes depending on what makes the manufacturer look best. When it is convenient, the models are all lumped together (3-series and 4-series sales numbers). When it is convenient, they separate them out. BMW saying "We have 96 different models... as long as you count the 320, 335, etc all separately.

    I saw these in LA and they look really darn close to production ready. Both of them are "tweeners" in exterior size. They don't feel as big as an F-150, but not as small as a Ranger either. The SUV looks about Explorer sized. Their third vehicle should be a smaller crossover about the size of the old Equinox.

    The old Sebring is still built there as a Volga

    Leave it to the Germans to overcomplicate matters.

    The RLX need an interior overhaul... material quality and fit is well below the segment average. The ILX feels too close to Civic. The TLX is average at best.

    A trim line is not a model. The E300 and E400 are not separate models.

    Rivian looks to possibly beat Tesla at their own game primarily because Elon's ego isn't involved. They're also starting in the hottest two segments, so if their tech proves to be worthy, they should get a better start than Tesla.

    I dunno... I'm sure the BMW will at least whelm me.

    I'm pretty underwhelmed.

    Top of the car range can be Escala to go with the top of the SUV range Escalade.

    If the product is good enough, they will come. But it isn't happening anyway.
  21. Drew Dowdell
    Honestly, I have no issue with them keeping the platform as long as they improve on the interior materials a bit. The car itself is super solid and isn't in dire need of a change.

    GM routinely licenses out its technology. They had camera mirrors, though not full-time real-time streaming, as far back as 2010. That is how the 2nd gen Equinox got a rearview camera if one didn't select NAV. The image popped up in the mirror. Cars are not new... you must still drive a Curved Dash because if electric cars haven't changed in 100 years, neither have gasoline powered cars.

    Their whole economy is cooling fast.

    There are Chevy dealers that get special treatment based on the number of Corvettes they sell... or the number of Silverados they sell. A Corvette sub-brand "boutique"* inside of certain dealers would work. That's how Genesis launched. *I hate that word in regards to buying cars.

    There is a company out there building "new" old Mustangs. The body shells are available. The rest is just EV parts put in the shell. Aside from company funding, I see no technical reason this car couldn't be built.
