Are we to assume GM now has killed the column mounted shifter, in favor for Lincoln’s ridiculous push button dash selector?

No mention of finally retiring the drum brakes in the rear??
I’ve got the perfect solution for Nicholas! I happen to be selling my adventure ready Jeep Grand Cherokee, which meets all his requirements. https://photos.app.goo.gl/1RKX4pyVG6Xhozw13
Independent Front Suspension + 9 Speed Tranny + Refined Interior?? How does that merit “Improvement”? Introducing The New, less capable, but still ostentatious Mercedes G-Wagon! A wagon for those who dont adventure.
Not by much though.. I only lost 2mpg from what RAM stated the Ecodiesel would get by upgrading to a 4wd/6.5' bed with the limited trim. I crank out 24-25mpg hwy with it. Interestingly enough with a camper shell, I can only manage 23mpg. Here I thought I would help with aerodynamics putting a shell on. That was snake…
Agreed David! As an Ecodiesel RAM owner, I thought the top tier MPG only would be applicable to strippy 2wd/short bed/quad cabs. However to my surprise my 4x4/Crew/6.5' box/Limited trim still manages to get 24-25mpg which ain’t bad at all! My previous WK1 Hemi Jeep said EPA 13 city/18 hwy. No matter how I babied that…
This will probably hold true on the “strippy” F-150 trim at allows for a diesel option. As a Ram EcoDiesel owner, I knew going into my higher trim truck I wasn’t going to yield top MPG figures. However I was still quite happy to get 23 mpg highway with a crew/4x4/6.5' bed/limited trim truck. So props to diesel…
I think it comes down to the change of mindset with newer generations. Millennials prefer to live within the city, rather than in suburbia, and are more interested in ease-of-use tech to facilitate their transport needs. I see many young people using apps to hail a ride, or use public transportation to get around. If…
I had a similar thing happen not too long ago, when depositing cash into the ATM. I had just come back from Vegas and figured it would be worth while to stop in really quick to lighten my wallet from all these random assortment of bill denominations. Well a few days prior I counted it and came up with it being…
Cody isn’t the only young person to walk in and been quickly disregarded. I too have walked into Porsche South Bay and been treated like a wannabe dreamer. I dropped my 993 Carrera Cabriolet (non turbo) for service and while I waited for it to get its routine maintenance complete I decided to walk the lot and browse…
Eric -
I have sold two cars to a local used car lot in my area, and both times walked away with a bad feeling. Back in 2010 I sold this lot a 2004 BMW 330ci SMG with 98k on it. They were the only lot in my area that offered me the most money for my car, so I figured why not. Well three months later they end up selling the…
I love trying to negotiate whenever I can. Being an ex-car salesman one could say its in my blood. My insurance policy was due for renewal, and I found it a bit high for the two cars insured on it. Ended up shopping it, and saved $290 every 6 months!
New cars too seem to be having a hard time being sold. Dealers are trying everything to move them. Case in point: I had been shopping on/off kicking tires for a new truck. Finally after working with three dealers one called me and said, come in and ill give you $12k off MSRP before manufacture rebates! In total I got…
I’ve been waiting to be approved for months now.. Seems like everything I reply to (with or with out images) gets flagged for “Pending Approval”.
I drive a 2 door MK7 GTI and I looked high and low to find one. In the year I’ve owned it, I have noticed only 4-door models in my area. Makes me kinda special.
I saw this the other day in the VW press release article for 2017 models. Seems like if you want 2-door you will be SOL. According to the press release the 2-door will only be available without the performance pkg, and is the only 2017 model that will offer Clark plaid seats. Not to mention the VW.com website is all…
It happens... Back when I had my Audi A4 (B6) I took it to a tire shop for new tires. The guy at the counter says to me since I’m getting four tires he would throw in a free oil and filter change (synthetic mobil 1). I said sure, its coming near its service interval, why not get it done. *Disclosure: its winter, I was…
Yes Twister movie.
