Surprisingly, I saw a few of em use their turn signal on the way out of here.

Missed the mark here. Should have gotten rid of the chrome and done a matte gold/ bronze on the trim pieces. We know special trims tend to be parts bin specials but if theyre gonna change up the interior, why not try with the exterior a little

No Dice as the Audio control panel trim doesn’t match one another.

I think the writing is on the wall here unfortiantely. Like you said, 10 years isnt a long time in the car world. If something isnt in development or nearing production now then they’re more or less screwed. Unless we see a surge of foreign models enter the market as a chrysler or dodge that is. 

Effectively they replaced the sales lagging Touareg even though the Touareg still exists (and looks really good might I add). Always love that brands will design a whole new car and slap the same name on it so they can appease the masses when they already make a vehicle that fills said masses needs. 

Exterior looks solid. Not for me but I like what they did. Cant for the life of me get why they will now put a faux shifter in to rest your hand and keep those buttons. Looks moronic.

Good. I’m pretty tired of apples BS. My phone bricked months into getting it. Took it to apple and they refused to fix it because I made “unauthorized modifications” and wouldn’t say anything more. only thing i ever did was take it out of the box and use it normally for 6 months. Unreal, ended up using an old phone

Always hated the way jeep priced their options. Backing out color pricing  given the fact that each car has a color is a good one though. Found my sticker from my 2007 WK. Destination was 600 something. Fast forward to my WK2 in 2014 and it more than doubled. Wonder what it is now? 37k to start seems like 5-8 k more

I would bet they open the v8 as an option order to lower trims once its well into production.

I think they dropped it after the refresh in 2014. Pretty sad tbh.

Could it have hurt them to change that orange face plate to blue? Always strikes me as funny when brands go above and beyond to theme out a vehicle and then leave one or two glaring things because of the bean counters.

Dont get why volvo is going to the grey scale with colors. I’ve got a Bursting Blue XC90 and am very happy I picked one up before they cut that one.

QOTD: Am I a hypocrite if I prefer buttons for Climate/ Audio but a physical shifter instead of buttons? 

Lightly used GM Tahoe/Yukon or Ford Expedition. ‘18+ Jeep Grand Cherokee, 4 runner etc. All Can accommodate everything and is a superior vehicle to learn how to drive in. Service isn’t terrible, parts are cheap. 

One of my favorite memories growing up as a kid was watching this in our living room on the weekends with my Dad. The throwback episodes are great.

The thing is basically designed like a tank track. What did they expect?

We had a first generation Expedition as well (‘99 Eddie Bauer if I’m remembering correctly), trading up from an Explorer. I actually convinced my parents to get it. Little did I know it would become my first vehicle. Thing was a tank. Sightlines for days and could fit 16 friends comfortably. Sadly it didnt wear well

I alway get tired of the stable ones too. 

Dont see a hitch. Thats another no-brainer option they clearly overlooked and could’ve thrown in. 

Ford: Continues to green-light Halo-style vehicles to drum up interest in the brand.
