I hope one of them is yours! Or hell. maybe even both!

When I joined Tesla 7 years ago my first responsibility was to manage the global fleet of showroom/display/service loaner vehicles, which literally totaled somewhere around 50-75 cars. To go from that to this is crazy in the best way. Even I have not always been the most positive on the company’s outlook at times but

I really wonder how this thing will sell in the US after the first model year. In my mind it’s got two groups of people interested- those that purchase the Mercedes-AMG E63 wagon and want something different, and those what would never purchase the E63 but are super into Audi and want what has for so long been

They get credit for the original design, we just give them flack because they squandered it and did nothing with it until recently. 

Haha my interest is definitely not on a rolling basis

Lol, just because the grille is physically large enough for a human to squeeze in doesn’t make it inviting!

Everything is going flat again and retro-simple. Go back to the 1963 version - no need to reinvent the wheel. Losing the black ring gives the logo less impact. This is just change for change’s sake and not for any good reason. Just read that stupid PR-quote to confirm that. Of course all the German cars I buy are 20+

We just bought one that stickered at $40k for $32k. It is awesome.

I think your comment goes great with this line that was posted in one of Torch’s updates above from an engineer:

Badlands! That’s a gorgeous place. I have a similar picture of my trip as well. 

What happened with the XC40? I remember there was this massive demand for them before they were released, and I do recall Volvo had some issues with their subscription program which prevented the XC40 getting into the hands of customers when it was finally released.

I have a coworker who was raised in Japan and in talking to her I have become so fascinated with Japanese culture. We watched Terrace House in the same timeline so we would discuss and I would ask her questions. Then all these JDM BMWs and Mercedes would show up on Bring a Trailer with low miles and well cared for and

Hey Bradley! This is unrelated but speaking of sharp GM discounts we bought a 2020 Regal TourX a few weeks ago and we love it! I know you’re a fellow owner and just wanted to share that I understand your feelings for it. We wanted something that was low enough for our dog to jump in, fuel efficient, had memory seats

Agreed. I’m all for strict standards moving forward but there needs to be reasonable exceptions for older/collectible vehicles of which there will only be a low volume imported to/registered in the state anyway. 

Whatever happened to Car Matchmaker? I loved that show. 

You’re right that it is dumb, but unfortunately the pervasive attitude for consumers is that they need 4WD/AWD in areas that snow.  So for this person’s vehicle sale it makes more sense to sell in the south (while acknowledging it is dumb they even have to take this into account because consumers are, well, dumb).

The example he gave was the Honda Ridgeline. It’s a nice truck that sold 33,334 units last year. But that’s compared to the... 99,113 Odysseys also sold last year, according to Honda’s own data.

As someone who just turned 33 and thinking kids are on the horizon in the next couple years, this is beautiful. Especially the ‘seeing everything with fresh eyes’ thing - I will take such joy in that. I will also he constantly playing great music from the 50s through the 70s in my car all the time like my mom did and

The V60 wagon is also pretty sexy.  The rake on the V90's rear is a little too steep for my tastes though.

The kids are complaining about rear seat room in a midsize crossover. He suggests two smaller cars - aka the staff immediately (and smartly) ignored his suggestions.
