Exactly this. Anyone who knows a lot of veterans will probably give this guy a pass, expecting that he may have needed to scam them this way because they weren’t taking care of him like recruiters love to tell teenagers they will. He may have just been plainly scamming them, but I know very few vets who speak well abou…

I feel like trims like Denali, Kind Ranch, & High Country are really what killed Buick in that realm. With how you can option an “economy” and how low entry level luxury vehicles have gotten, there really isn’t a market for companies like Buick anymore.

I have multiple coworkers with a Stinger, Equus, used King Ranch, or similar for that very reason.

Sounds like they will turn their thing into a mantle, as opposed to a family thing, like the first 2 indicate. So it will be like an Irish Crow, but they don’t have to die first.

Engineering nerds like to watch the wings adjust. 

Depending on the clientele, too good of an image can be just as bad. I had a Cadillac rental once and it was constant shit talking about how overpaid we are or how we need to do more for what we cost, even though everyone knew it was a rental and my company gets discounted rates. It also didn’t matter that the F250s…

That was my guess too, along with where the budget comes from. We have some people that do mileage like that between all of our clients and they get to choose between rentals or the company just cuts a check for car & insurance so the driver can (mostly) get what they want. 

To be fair, have you been to a Kia dealer before?

And it better be Will Ferrell who’s controlling the computer.

With it only being an inch longer, I doubt it. I’ve had the QX80 & Armada as rentals and that cramped interior relative to tank exterior really keeps it a notch below the Tahoe/Yukon. If you’re not towing, just about any full size 3-row SUV is a better choice for cheaper too.

I feel like Lexus really undersells their NA V8 offerings. They’re the only non-American sports car pushing them out and they seem to be well likely by anyone who remembers they exist. 

It’s one of the things I hate about visiting family on the west coast. They all live in various rural mountain/woodsy areas and I am constantly getting tailgated for not hitting some blind corner doing 60. I don’t consider myself a slow driver in most cases, but I know that when I’m on an unfamiliar backroad those…

Bold assumption that no one has ever brought this up to the operating DOT, especially since the police have been called there on multiple occasions. Until the cost of sending cops out there outweighs whatever changes need to happen so people slow down, it is unlikely the municipality in charge will do anything.

That’s why I went to a credit union. I showed the dealer my terms to see if they could beat it and they laughed and didn’t even want to try. 

They don’t have it here, but it is 19-20 city & 28-29 highway for the 2.5T. The hybrid doesn’t have EPA numbers yet. The 2023 1.6 hybrid, was 36 city & 31 highway, so probably in line with those numbers. 

My wife’s car will be ~9 years old when our oldest is driving, so probably that one. Then when our second starts driving, my car will be ~11 years old, so probably that one too. Third kid is SOL, so they better start saving.

You clearly lack the billionaire mindset. /s

Just bought last year and adaptive cruise was that feature. Since I mostly work remote, the vast majority of my mileage is highway driving and adaptive cruise is just amazing.

I think this just highlights a whole different set of criticisms for these hearings. That they consist of a team of interns writing questions for a Senator who then reads scripted talking points for the camera with the same intelligence as Anchorman. 

I find the majority of Mercedes to be anywhere from ugly to bland. These, however, are pure art and I love them.
