That whole crazy front end with lighting extensions around corners and in random places and around the sides is the only thing Lexus does these days.

This one made me smile.

Butterass too in my opinion.

Good!

As in they automatically turn on when it’s dark outside?

Does it have or come with Auto headlights? What about auto headlights when the wipers are on?

That hasn’t always been the case! Mid 2000s BMW wheels were great.

Luckily I haven’t gotten this runaround from BMW dealers, which is nice. Still going back and forth on discount off of MSRP though.

I’m not a fan of black wheels and I’m not a fan of this new trend of black wheels with a shiny metal face on them. I’m sure the size and width and offset make them appear plenty aggressive.

So does that pretty much confirm which manufacturer Chris Bangle is working for now?

I see they’re following BMW’s newest ugly-wheel design trend too.

Yeah, I would have known that if I had watched the video.

yeah, I had to have the leather/cooled seats and LEDs so that put me in a Lariat. A year and a half later and I couldn’t be happier.

80's-90's Nissan tail light design makes more sense now. Cool.

That’s the way it is in high end Fords as well. Just thinking that the Raptor might not have the 2WD mode.

Can the raptor go into just 2WD?

Yes, it among other things on lariat+ are very nice. I’ll watch the video when I can to fully understand what exactly will break as soon as I’m out of my Extended warranty.

I imagine it’s basically the same one in my Lariat level F-150. I love being able to have AWD on slick/rainy days when a pickup would normally have so much trouble getting up and going.

What automaker has your favorite configurator? Least favorite?
