You seem to be under the mistaken assumption that because this article was recent, that ford only just now is starting to do over the air updates? My 2018 F150 had over the air update capabilities and I have no reason to believe 2018 was the first year of that capability. 

You mean the best priced, best value compact EV SUV from VW, which somehow manages to completely fail in the US over and over and over again with any vehicle that isn’t a beetle or rabbit? VW may be a powerhouse in most of the world but in the US they’re an also-ran. Volkswagen keep shooting themselves in the foot

I agree with your take on his terrible takes, except this time.  I think he’s right, which made me a little nauseous.

Fun fact: no US VW dealer will ever stock that beautiful red color.

They won’t sell any cars directly from this. It is an image ad. They are trying to place GMC vehicles in the same league as Lexus and Mercedes by running the same type of ads with ridiculous entitled people.

That is standard American comedy and marketing. Men are safe targets to portray as clueless. Because privilege, or something like that.

This is peak america

Look at that house, they can afford it.

Hey, when you’ve got no kids and can afford what appears to be a $5M custom mansion...what’s another $125k on some trucks for Christmas?

Some people can tell what vehicle their SOs want. Mine was never very subtle about it.

Honestly, I think a lot of the Lexus ad campaign is aspirational. Like, OK, you actually can’t just casually bestow a whole luxury car on your honey for Christmas because that’s way too expensive and what if they don’t like it and you really should talk this through together, etc., but what if you could? What if you

Agreed.  If they were serious, they’d go get a few year old Stinger right now.

Bought my leftover ‘19 G70 M/T for $32.5 brand new.  Used models were only about $500 to $1000 cheaper as advertised and I’ll still get to keep the 10 yr/100k powertrain warranty (as long as I don’t put a JB4 on it...)

You think that a 4500lb Camry with 30 more horsepower will be faster than a 2800lb YarisGR?

Yeah, I said the same thing earlier but Kinja isn’t displaying it.  Here it is again.

Hah! That has edge walls. You call that Rainbow Road? This is Rainbow Road...

This was not well planed...he really just winged it.

Unusual? Sure. Different? Yes! But when people ask what it is it’ll be less “I am stunned by its beauty” and more “there’s something on your face.”

Seemed pretty intent on getting to the top, but what was his plan after that?

Looks like a Mercury Cougars slow cousin so no thanks.
