Man worried about recession causes recession. 

I mean, Musk is right; a monoculture grove of trees planted to be harvested as cardboard stock isn’t the same as bulldozing the Amazon. This isn’t old-growth forest. How many times has Volkswagen cleared trees to build a factory without a peep from anybody?

Raise your hand if you think the I6 is completely unchanged and they just finally admitted the real power output of the engine.

Manual is dead. Sorry. 

Well, 20 years ago, they made a product that was worth buying, 10 years ago, they started making horrible little Ghosn-mobiles with no passion. Today, they continue to make soul-less driving appliances that are barely worthy to be rental cars.

Personally, as a lover of driving and high performance driving in particular, i’m always bummed out by the fact that cars double as status symbols and as a show of wealth. But that’s the unfortunate reality.

I like the update better. 

This goes back but I remember it distinctly when the silverado went from this handsome design

Now fix the rest of it.

which BMW lets you write on the button ?  I wonder if they kept this feature for the current cars.

My 2014 BMW has this feature built into I drive where you can write on the button with your finger. Guess what, you can also simply send the address from your phone (either google or Apple Maps) to the nav system and bypass the silly finger writing altogether.   I assume the Genesis has other workarounds?  

This video is worth a watch, lays out a lot of info that’s still not being discussed (they have Mercedes’ AR view navigation!) For what it’s worth, the rim is a dial and the center is a button like iDrive, it can just so happen also be written on.

As far as not relying solely on the touch screen, MB does this as well. There’s the larger track pad with shortcut buttons on the center console, there’s even 2 smaller trackpads on each side of the steering wheel, voice commands and of course directly with the touch screen.

This. If I ever see someone was trying to get in, I back out.

Same thing with the Air Force’s new 767-based KC-46 Pegasus tankers. They kept finding shoddy work and tools left in planes until they stopped accepting deliveries for a while so Boeing could get their act together. 

As long as someone isn’t trying to pull into the spot on the other side it is totally fine.

I’m pretty certain that the world’s 2nd-largest economy actively working to accelerate climate change, is a real problem.

Trump is probably the biggest problem facing our country at the moment. A completely unqualified imbecile destroying vast swaths of the economy with his moronic tariffs while trying his best to start world war 3. His sole claim to fame is he rode Obama’s economy for 3 years.

The Vibe/Matrix were built on a Corolla platform and used Japanese engineered parts and major mechanical components. NUMMI was run like a Japanese plant, not like GM’ Midwest factories.

Immigrant cars doing the work that American cars refuse to do.
