While the X7 is certainly a full size SUV, I don’t know that I’d call it huge. It’s smaller than my 03 Navigator, particularly in the width and height departments, so it’s no surprise that it only seats 6-7, just as my Navigator does.

I actually think Mach E is a pretty good name, if that is indeed the name that it will carry. It’s no “Hammerhead Eagle i-Thrust,” but it fits what it seems like Ford is doing: making a cool, aspirational, high-performance electric car that isn’t just a compliance play like the Bolt or the Leaf.

You’re absolutely right about the raw numbers.

As we say:

I saw one of those yesterday; A model S, tastefully lowered with some elegant, understated wheels and a beautiful, shiny, maroon (red, multi coat?) paint job.

Don’t tell my wife that. She loves Australia and New Zealand. This December we’ll both have multiple degrees.

Lets see, I hid out from the last recession by going to college and accumulated some (a lot of) student debt, and then I had a hell of a time finding a job afterwards and now I’m working at an entry level gig with entry level pay.

If FCA wants to lead with Jeep same Ram while staying relevant, a good way to get two birds stoned at once would be to make plug in versions of Jeeps and Rams. Plug in trucks and SUVs are really impossible to beat. Zero emission commuting, and powerful utility at the same time? Sign me up

I’m not in favor of my insurance company increasing my rates because some bonehead didn’t wear a helmet or a seatbelt. Thanks.

Think about it. It’s easy. Bud light is an affordable alcoholic simple drink with a minimal flavor profile. They both essentially get across to their customers in a very similar way. If you look close, the marketing isn’t even all that different.

It’s cheaper and no stupider than craft beers and it lets you get a buzz on. What’s to understand.

Herr Bohne. Not a comedian though, he just lectures children about the importance of eating beans.

You’ve identified the top two characteristics of the new C8.

Personally, I think this is the first time they looked over from Zuffenhausen and went “Oh, shit”.

Haha, yeah I mean, no apologies from me on that! When a Cool Thing comes out it’s fun to turn over all the rocks. At least I think so. On top of that, this is a level of significance above most other major recent launches. There will be other cars to talk about... next week...

Are you surprised Jalopnik is actually reporting on a hugely anticipated new car reveal?

I do hope you realize this car is news worthy and thus on a news site.
