That is thoughtful, creative, and damn cool!

The Escala and Sixteen showed us futures we were too damned to see happen.

“Fucking send it!” - Steve Carlisle, CEO of Cadillac

There is one of their designers that has posted here before and she is quite active on Instagram as well. She is a solid car enthusiast and seems to have a great eye for design. I do believe she is on the truck projects, but no idea to what degree or where her emphasis was, if at all on the new platform’s front-ends.…

I need to scour for pictures of my family’s fleet. They were indifferent parents but they did own some amazing cars.

I adore car art, but it is often hard to find well-designed pieces in the swamp of Chinese prints out of Etsy/Pinterest.

Do they have a pedal-override option? This looks pretty fantastic, but I’d like actual pedals for the benefit of exercise, and a backup plan should I run down the charge before home or back to the car.

The lack of a diesel on the Z71 makes as much sense as the Z71'a grill design.

They are pretty great. I’d love to see a significant material and design uplift on the interior, but overall they are capable, conpetative, and somehow counter-intuitively relevant in today’s confused and amorphous automotive world.

My Automotive Priorities, in review

1999 - Fast, loud, visually-communicates the previous two priorities.
2003 (when I could legally drive) - Starts most of the time.
2009 - Handles well, quick , consider more occupant space as I should grow up a bit.
2019 - Lightweight, engaging, and notable overall design.

This is the way.

After all of that, did he check on the dog? How was the dog? Was he a good boy?

I gave it a pity-ridden NP. It is overpriced, but it is also one of the nicest examples I have EVER seen.

Given that car travel is statistically more unsafe than air travel, you’re right. It makes it all the more impressive that Uber has more customers served in a given year, and fewer deaths, of any measure, than all airlines combined.

I used Uber for the first time yesterday (out of despiration, visiting LA without a car), and it was pleasant; better than any taxi experience I’ve ever had.

It’ll certainly get me on board. I have varied expectations depending upon class/model, but meeting them could get me in an EV more-quickly.

You can make statistics say whatever you want, but I’ll give you that some portion of the US may not need or want a car, and lives life just fine without them. 83% of Americans still drive frequently, 7% dont drive at all, with another 10% somewhere in the middle.

As the resident Mazda whore, I have to agree. — Mazda isnt the answer here (which is terrible, but no less true).
