their identity is “bad”. 

Bud, that sketch is a perfect carbon copy of the first gen Murano, almost exact but cartoony.  Also when the first Murano was buzzing around the streets it looked like nothing else out there.  Nissan succeeded hugely with that vehicle, basically the template for many CUVs that came after it.

I wouldn’t say this looks amazing, but it at least looks like its own design without being derivative of other SUV’s. So, still a win in my book. 

Did everone really decide getting into and out of non-SUVs is hard? I’m genuinely asking.

Oh, you’ll be paying more for fuel for sure. When corporations know their product is on the downturn jobs get cut, product quality goes into the toilet and price hikes soon follow. Given that oil companies are already very comfortable practicing monopolistic behavior, this is going to be a real shitshow.

What now? I thought this was due to a shortage of potato based snacks for the line workers? 

I would definitely want a $25,000 EV.

That would require intelligence and empathy, two things sorely lacking at the modern stealership.

You get more, more expensive to repair. How can that be rocket science to some people?

Porsche performance and handling in a sub $20k Ford?
Luxury like an S-class in an Affordable Buick?
Freude am Fahren in a common Hyundai?

It’s like complaining a high-end Intel Xeon is more expensive than an entry level AMD Ryzen CPU. 

For many of us. The value to price is just not good enough.

I mean if they don’t they run the risk of a Kodak situation. 

I like the high seating position because it gives you the best vantage point to spot the tow truck you called. 

It’s really a shame that companies like Ford are behind in this at all. They were handed so many opportunities to get ahead in stuff like hybrids and EVs. Governments, particularly the US government, gave them money be ahead. Still, they find a way for be caught flat footed by every major shift in the market.

To an entitled sociopath, it’s harassment.

to people who have lived their whole lives not having to do so, it is.  

Being asked to follow the law is not harassment.

Talking more and more like her father every day. 

Freakin blow up doll. 

It still surprises me how hundreds of people can agree that something hideous is actually good.
Because that’s essentially what happened.The designers,middle management,focus groups and upper management all somehow agreed this was a great idea.

I thought the i3 was cute and at least had a cohesive theme going on. This, however, is ghastly; I agree.
