Let me tell you a little story about GM people, because the "culture" comes from the people and their attitudes, as you say, Patrick.

It was estimated by the New York Times that making a "flying machine" (a plane) would be possible in the next 1-10 million years. That estimate was given the very same year the Wright Brother's first took off. Orville Wright himself stated that a plane would *never* be able to make it from New York to Paris.

We can all agree that Buick has made great strides in revamping its image as a grandpa's car to more of a cool uncle's car.

I completely agree with what you are saying. Smaller companies are easier to work for. It's easier to get noticed, it's easier to be on a first name basis with management and labor force, and its easier not be treated like a number.

In the side impact test, he's basically sitting on the ram at impact

So let me get this straight: if I get arrested in Avon or Somerset, I get to ride along in an Ariel Atom?

Flat vs boxer engine.

Does not Automatically start a party

90!

I'm guessing Frontier, given the exaggerated roof rack that is typical of their "lifestyle" trucks. A Titan should be too tall and too "mature" to pull off a rack like that.

Cruise Control, It needs to be a button on the steering wheel. Not some stalk I have to find and push back forward left and right to set the damn thing.

My VTEC got me that way. I'm assuming it will only get worse when I get my Evo.

What are these tonnes and kg's you speak of?

You're right...but you forgot one thing. It's a Nissan. So idiot American buyers didn't even know it existed despite it being the segment leader for so long.

Hahaha hell yea, I was hoping you'd say that. Im not even a BMW guy and I know that engine is godly, I dream way way too much of an Alpine White 335 coupe..... Some day -.- Enjoy that sir! I am quite envious haha.

yeah, but Titan does not have the historical F150's cred. Which is a fucking shame.

Thats always the bummer with EVs. Battery tech just cant keep up right now. They haev gotten it to the point where you could almost fit a pack in that gives you the range of a regular tank but there is one big bust. My bike does 120-150 per 4.4 gallons based on how stupidly I ride but, when I am dry on the mountain…

More people showed up for this tractor race then the last Tudor IMSA event.

Your comment is not unique to bmw owners. Sadly, very few people track their cars. The people that actually do are rarely the asshats that give each of these groups a bad rap.
