Joke is that americans only tow trailers with enormous trucks, while in europe, it’s basically the opposite. 

Well you know, it’s important to maintain 75mph when driving up the Davis dam when it’s 100F outside.

In the US, you would need a BoF truck weighing at least 2.5 tons to even think about towing that battery cart.

> The Bolt and Volt have been mediocre

I’m done with GM, with the exception of the Corvette. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Camaro, but it’s reportedly headed for discontinuation. Cadillac is not aspirational. Their best sedan in at least 50 years, if not longer, the CT6, is being discontinued. The CT4 and CT5 are a step backwards. Stop gap…

The Bolt and Volt have been mediocre

And THIS is how you ruin a design. When Nissan had the “floating roof” on only the Murano and Maxima, it looked modern and unique (because it was well-executed).

Ironically, Mitsubishi’s doing pretty well and seeing profit increase. My heart still roots for them =(

3rd Gear: The wife and I just added to the heat in the used car market. Picking up a 2017 Audi A6 3.0T Premium Plus S-line for less than 45% of sticker tonight. It only has 25k miles and 11 months left on the factory warranty. It’s crazy how much sedans, especially near premium and up, depreciate. And it’s crazy how…

Yeah, because designing a strategy based around appealing to people who cry endlessly for smaller and cheaper is always a winning business.... /s

If they made a short wheelbase Gladiator with two doors and a short bed, stripped equipment and sold it for $22k, I think they would have trouble keeping them in stock. Then again, I have no market expertise or understanding of customer trends, but I think a smaller (S10-ish sized) truck would be a massive hit in the…

But remember, Tesla sold the car on 11/15. When they did the audit, they were no longer the owners of the car.

I think this thing is going to do very well for Genesis.

Any plans for a 5.0 powered Ultimate model?

I couldn’t agree more. I had a pit bull when I was in high school and college. It was the most loving, loyal, and protective dog I have ever had. I worked a night shift during one college summer. When I would get home, usually around 3 am, I would go to my mom’s room to let her know I was home. Since our dog was jet…

I’m guessing a PPI will reveal why exactly this car is being quickly sold again for $10,000 less than the owner recently paid. I would normally grant a conditional NP as well, but something doesn’t feel right about this one.

First-gen was Hyundai internal, wasn’t it? Specifically Hyundai California Design, since it was previewed by the HCD-1 concept.

Still traumatised by the monstrosity that is the Hyundai Tiburon’s first facelift.

I don’t get it either. G35/37 had some equity as a pretty good sports sedan/coupe in that segment. I know the other cars really didn’t, but instead of building on that one good thing, they toss the whole thing out and adopt this awful Q/QX thing.

I will not consider a car < 5 years old unless it has CarPlay/AndroidAuto. Period. Get your shit together, manufacturers.
