I can’t help but think that Jeep putting this in the hands of journalists infers that we may see this as a body option in the next 12-24 months.

Well, there’s some good news for them, as last week, Jeep showed off exactly that in the Jeep J6 Easter Jeep Safari concept.

The point of GMC is to make even more profit.  There’s not much difference, sometimes there’s options that don’t come on the Chevys, but swapping badges is a quick way for GM to make a couple grand more.  Also to give the Buick/Cadillac dealers trucks and SUVs to sell.  

2nd. ‘member when Chevy fanboys were claiming that if you added Chevy and GMC together, they outsold Ford? That new mug certainly isn’t doing them any favors there.  Also, outselling in a month is nice (as the last several reported events), but that could be affected by current incentives and model changeovers.  A…

One reason for that is that if I don’t get my oil changed, that doesn’t increase the likelihood that I’ll run a red light and slam into a Bentley. 

That’s considered a new generation?  It’s just a refresh?

Sounds like a shitload of wasted time. I’m clocked out of work, I’m not checking emails, and my personal one’s already caught up. “Hey mom, I can’t talk to you in person because I’m out of electrons, you’ll have to settle for a phone call”.  

You also have finite, relatively predictable insurance costs with a car. If you crash a $50,000 car, then the worst case scenario is that you’ll hit a Bugatti and the total bill will be 2 or 3 million. And that’s because cars don’t get diseases.

Health insurance isn’t a basic human need either, numbnuts.

That’s the democrat’s solution, not mine.  I agree that it is dimwitted.

People also don’t expect car insurance to cover their oil changes and tire rotations.

They are also the most ridiculous thing you can buy for your pickup truck, since you’re basically telling the world “Fuck!! Should’ve bought an SUV.” It’s the solution to a problem you made, yourself.

Considering you have a toddler, they get a bit stircrazy in their little booster seats anyways seems like the perfect break.

3 years ago I bought a complete house for $10k less than the average new car price, cars are expensive. 

Trucks suck because they have no dry cargo area,

Time’s not an issue, he just doesn’t start working on them until March. All you suggestion would do is make him skip a year of Jeep content, he’ll still wait until the month before to start on it.

Yes, young ‘uns have been clueless since the turn of the century.

Anything that encourages someone to go out and tinker with their engine is a good thing, and timing adjustments are a lot easier than most people think. One of those “wait, I can do that!” things.

Not until you pay for them

If we follow the Philippine model, we might start getting somewhere.
