“Don’t.”

He did, but his passengers complained and he could hear them through the trunk’s soundproofing.

And the expansion will only continue, until safety and efficiency tech catches up and finds a new, less intrusive solution.

Everything a wagon or hatch variant sedan makes easier, plus easier load-in, better visibility, and (typically) more ground clearance. These days they;re just as comfortable and easy to drive, so why not?

Yeah, but you could make the same argument with midsize sedans. Europeans raise families with compacts and hatches, yet we Americans need our runabouts twice the size. If you’re gonna go for the midsize footprint, why not “build up” and take advantage of it with an SUV/crossover?

Those are both actually pretty good looking vehicles, so I happily agree.

Yep—undo some creases and that’s our VW!

More of an urban runabout for sure, then.

Care to elaborate? Was it just useless for daily tasks? I always wondered if people who own those actually go shopping or leave town.

2002 Mitsubishi Montero. The problems just never ended, but it was such a capable, luxurious, expansive beast of a truck and it always seemed like it was just one repair away from “perfect.”

Women don’t want to be a truck driver for the same reason they don’t want to walk through bad neighborhoods alone at night: men are filthy, brutal, disgusting, disrespectful animals.

Are you kidding? Car reviews are littered with repeated phrases and languishing praises of barely updated vehicles. It’s refreshing to actually hear an honest, and outright negative, review. If you’re asking for more positivity, that would just be insincere and dishonest, if not willingly misleading to consumers.

Any chance someone can drop in with average lease/monthly payment figures on this thing in comparison with others in the same range? It seems like the only competition in that range would highlight even more the futility of this thing in the modern market.

And if they ever need to tickle the Big Friendly Giant, this should work for that, too.

I hope Cadillac’s styling is as in-your-face as it’s PR moves!

I think style is a leading selling point. If you’re already looking at large sedans but have no regular use for the extra doors/seats, a large GT gives you most of the room with plenty more style.

Now I’m patiently awaiting Torch’s article: A Comprehensive History of In-Car Beverage Solutions

Me too. I think, maybe, we should thank Univision?

I’m going to assume this was Lotus’s sole reason for producing this special edition.

I noticed that, too... Kinda puts a dark cloud on this funny anecdote.
