I’m waiting for the special edition model, the Engelberg Humperdinck

Such a shame - from the crapboxes that is GM compacts from the 80s~2000s, the Cruze was a great little car. I drove a 2011 LT 1.4T, later a 2015 2.0TD as well as a 2018 LTZ 1.4T and found them to be very nice to drive.

Yeah, he specualted on land nearby.

I honestly think driving manual makes you more attentive, not less, as this seems to argue, but, sure, whatever, just trying to get through a class here.

“25,000 jobs at an average income of $150,000"

Yeah, but AOC can crow about the $3 billion that Amazon won’t be getting... Never mind N.Y. will be losing out on$25 billion or more in tax revenue.

“we learned that Amazon is weak”

For once I have to disagree with a McParland column.

As an owner of a 2012 Ford Focus I say yes, avoid that first year at all costs. Also as the owner of a 2012 Ford Focus I say dont buy a car new...or a Focus.

Haha. I’m kinda interested in Honda’s new hybrid system which uses the motor to drive a generator except when highway cruising when it engages a clutch to let the motor direct drive the wheels. It’s works the same effectively as the volt. The electric motor is used mostly to get to highways speed and get started.

How about hybrids/plug-in hybrids?

They absolutely do go around thinking that. People on this site are much more well educated about these things than most other car forums. I’m in a lot of Facebook car groups, and sometimes the level of ignorance is astounding.

I thought they were Truck Company :).

No, they closed product lines because they weren’t selling.  It's happened a lot over the years without plant closures.  Or if they closed, they merged two plants that were close into one.  

They’re closing plants because they have products that don’t sell.  Tariffs may have had an impact, but people don’t buy cars from GM, Ford, and Chrysler, just trucks.

I’m with the anti-wheel/tire package crowd. I see how those Delrays reference the OEM steelie, but the profile is just wrong. Fortunately, those are available in 18".

Drop it to the ground and put huge rims/rubber band tires on it. How to ruin a perfectly good truck.

Yeah, little less rim, little more rubber.

Gotta agree the wheels are retarded looking. I can’t of any vehicle in which those wheels would be acceptable. Hell the oem ones were the lowest trim package so why reproduce them in a larger version. I guess at least they aren’t black, that would be worse yet. 

It’s always been my opinion that the right wheels make the vehicle look right.
