Take the $25k. Be grateful that you're suddenly $25k richer than you were on the second hole. Then, go buy a few of these cars and wait a couple of years. Instead of winning one new car that will immediately depreciate, you've been able to make an investment that puts you ahead in the long run and you have a number of…

Different types of rivets and die combinations had to be developed for different parts of the truck body. The team came up various combinations of all sizes and shapes that allow the steel rivet to go through layers of aluminum of different alloys and thickness. The rivets must stop and splay just short of the bottom,…

Neutral: Have you ever not taken in your car for recall service?

Nevermind. Didn't see the post about SRT's demise as a brand until after this. Long live the Dodge Viper!

Wait... Viper... it either IS or IS NOT a Dodge product. Make up your mind, FCA! But I'm glad to see they're committed to it for at least five more years, despite lagging sales. Maybe by then I can afford one.

When it comes to out-of-this-world hoaxes, you bet Uranus that Jason Torchinsky runs rings around everyone else!

Expect that to start with the production version of their X6 ripoff, the Mercedes Coupé SUV Concept.

Mullaly "leaving the company" for "another substantial role". He's either taking a job as the head of the Lincoln Motor Company to do there what he did at Ford, or he's getting ready for a Presidential run. His platform will be "A Mustang in Every Driveway, A Vest in Every Closet." He'll win with 66% of the popular…

Ok, found it. You're 100% right.

Oh, I stand corrected then. I remembered something about the interior being wrong and potentially having to be re-fit, but maybe I either remembered that incorrectly or they screwed that up, too!

I think the color issue was to do with the custom leather interior, which if I remember correctly, BMW offered to re-do but the Customer wouldn't accept because it wouldn't be 'new' then since the whole car would have been ripped apart to do it. BMW couldn't build him a new car because that program, and chassis if I…

Have you ever considered a Miata L, with a 4-6" stretch in the middle so people taller than 6' with spindly, awkward legs and big feet can drive them?

In that window line, all I see is Saab 9-3.

Oh right. Even though I'm a fan of Lincoln, I occasionally forget they still exist. Thanks for the info!

What's that in the background that looks like an Expedition with Durango taillights?

My thoughts:

I'd consider buying it. I'm really impressed with Kia's product, which continues to improve steadily with every model year. These are styled nicely, and they seem to have a lot of thoughtful features.

Yeah, I don't think Walmart does the give-back pricing, I just assume they just leave development costs right out from the get-go. From what I've heard, they're brutal to deal with, but it's hard for a lot of people/companies to say no to the volume they generate.

The window line and rear decklid proportions remind me of the current Chrysler 200. Nice to see that rental fleets won't have to risk being over-styled for the next few years.

Isn't this essentially the same thing Walmart does to their suppliers?
