Yes, that is the intention from VinFast

That looks alot like the S/Y Maltese Falcon.

I agree. The Envision looks downright Mazda-like, and that’s a compliment. Crucially, rather than being on the cheaper D2XX platform with the Equinox and Terrain, the Envision is on a sawn-off variant of the larger C1XX/E2XX midsize platform, and is a close relative of the XT4.

I’m actually shocked they are still selling the original Encore alongside the GX. The GX is a vastly better looking vehicle. Don’t know if it’s that much better to drive, but I see them everywhere.

Modern diesels are not like that. I haven an 8 year old X5 diesel with over 100K miles and have never had any issues with any of the traditional diesel quirks.  After spending 5 days atop a freezing parking deck at the airport during our family holiday, it started up within a second or two of the push of the ignition…

Sailed when parked.

The quality of this wreck is just incredibly outstanding. It looks as good as the ones you’d find in the Great Lakes, frankly. Deep, dark, cold, still and relatively lacking in life are the keys, I suppose.

It’s the less politically correct method of saying it’s slower than a seven year itch ‘round these parts.

Hahahahaha!

That which is understood need not be discussed. 

“It couldn’t pull a sick whore off a bedpan!”

It’s a four cylinder truck, at that!

FYI, hunting is fairly conservational, and contact sports are really focused on safety at the moment (see: CTE’s). And you’re just dismissing electric racing series out-of-hand based strictly on their fuel-type while insinuating that they’re all uninteresting at the same time. You’re going to miss-out on a lot of cool…

Living in Pakistan for a few years taught me something about luxury cars. Corollas and Civics are priced there like E-Classes are in many markets (taxes and whatnot), so many of the wealthy end up buying them. That means they have tons of options available (many dealer-installed) that otherwise wouldn’t be available…

May be a Japan-focused initiative.

I am just so, so glad that other people get as het up about the details of world building in these silly movies as I do. Like, HOW was a hereditary monarchy still exercising any meaningful power? How did Prince Richard’s whole foolishness in the first film not precipitate a massive constitutional crisis? Why was he so…

To break a lance for Belgravia, it looks like a rough match for the Grand Duchy Lithuania - it’s part of the forgotten kingdoms: there used to a huge ass country.

I guess it’s a 1400s map that might not reflect the “current time” in the story, but still. That’s really something.

Crisis on Infinite Christmases

A Christmas Prince: The Pan-Universe War

Have you considered that maybe this very important historical trilogy doesn’t take place on planet Earth? Or maybe it is a mirror world. We don’t know. Maybe they will explain that in next year’s movie when they burst through the veil and stumble upon Earth and are very confused about our map.
