The knee-jerk, short-sightedness of this is disappointing. I had already heard rumblings before the diesel emissions scandal broke out more than a year ago about Western cities with similar laws to our own with regards to emissions still having horrible air quality issues and were largely blaming it on diesels.

This.

I’d expect nothing less than from the Axis of Power. Or the government of where that pointy thing is located.

The national policy of France and Germany for 25+ years has been to speed introduction of diesel and make it universal.

Sure, all the things they’re asking for are possible, but the profitability of the company will be hurt, potentially leading to downsizing. On top of that there will be a…

THIS is another reason why I believe the rumored mid/rear engined Corvette is actually going to be a Cadillac.

Thank you for not using the headline to tell Darth Vader that his prototype is ready.

Plot twist... This is the result of the mule that was running around Michigan that everyone assumed was going to be the fabled mid-engined Corvette.

There are actual pictures of it testing, with the white camouflage. They’re in the article.

Neutral: Eliminate the 25 year import ban. End the Chicken Tax.

Ford has also developed an optional Ford branded “short-stack” package for 1720.99 CNY. This includes a step-stool with a rubberized surface for easy access to the vehicle’s interior and a booster seat so the driver can see what’s in front of them while driving.

Well, you know what they say about Asians and their small stature and the over compensation factor of big pickups...

Orlove should’ve known by now...
