I don’t know what you’re complaining about back there in the good old US of A. My garage in Italy barely fits a motorcycle.

I last saw Maine in 2015, but oddly enough it was dominated by Subaru Bajas. I’m absolutely convinced that they only sold in decent numbers in New England.

GMC Jimmq, Chevrolet Blazeq, and Pontiac Azteq. Those are my guesses as to how they will name it. 

I agree with this as well. Sprinters might be the worst vans I have ever encountered. I’ll take an Iveco over those, and they are 100% Italian reliable. 

Our vehicles are not operated under normal vehicle conditions. They spend most of their lives idling for hours on end, lights being left on for extended periods while the engine is off, barely exceeding 20mph, and just being treated like absolute garbage in general.

List of problems we encounter with the Chevys:

It is the full sized transit. the Transit 350. 

Is it Oregon? I saw Portland, but Portland exists in Maine as well. 

I am not partial to the peacock, but the overall format of that design is excellent. It’s been a long time since I saw a car interior that wasn’t as boring as a briefcase, or massively over styled with extra edges and other crap. This is a welcome departure from the norm. If this format of interior (minus the peacocks…

as a man who has spent an unfortunate amount of his career wrenching on fleet vans, I’d take a transit over the horrendous, unchanged since 2003 chevy express van. I know it’s not saying much for either van since they both spend more time out of service than in, but the ford’s are presently winning the battle for us. 

I never really understood why when GM badge engineered the Daewoo Lacetti into the Chevrolet Cruze why they bothered dropping the Lacetti name? It sounded way better than Cruze. 

I blame GM’s total contempt for their customers in the previous 2 decades. Having spent countless hours trying to keep GM’s “best” vehicles in service well beyond their obvious life expectancy, I can completely understand why their innovative models would end up on the back page of home and garden for most consumers. 

Don’t forget Oldsmobile. I hear the new Alero is going to be electrifying. 

it’s a bit hearsey

I have to ask, how rusty is the frame/Uniframe? I am extraordinarily jealous that you have bought one of my dream vehicles (other than the trans), but judging by the rusted panels, I’d expect that frame to be as flexible as a playing card by now. 

so the designers at BMW sat down and went, well if we can’t beat them on range, at least we can beat them on ugly. 

The Charger looks better on steelies than it looks on nice rims.

My guess us that the Chinese bought the tooling when these things were cancelled in the US/Europe. They did the same thing with some of the older Alfa and Rover platforms. 

My agonizing experiences under the hood of Audis suggest that this is entirely false.

At least it doesn’t have a lockable fuel filler cap where you need to saw it.
