Hope it’s just the rendering, but wow those A pillar look huge.

Lived in Germany and Switzerland for 5+ years over a decade. It’s hard to touch on many of quality of life issues. Beyond what you might see in postcards (which is just a day that ends in y over there), it’s the little things - food is so much higher quality, easy public transit, etc. It’s not perfect though. I did…

2nd - So what’s the play if you’re an investor in the OEMs? Keep pushing the incumbent OEMs to invest and spend on profit-heavy SUVs and pickups quarter-after quarter? And in parallel, just ignore the Chinese and Koreans as they capture the rest of the market? Seriously, then won’t the stock price suddenly tank when…

So much this.

Please Jeep - bring out a PHEV (4xe) version of the Grand Cherokee L

Yeah, I’m from north of there and not sure how many shoot-outs the Ukiah PD has been involved in in recent years.

Also, headline might also read: “Small sedan with small back seat cannot easily haul suspected criminals in custody because it has a small back seat.”

Makes me wonder too how the department pays for fuel.…

No plug-in hybrid?

I really like this - especially the tail gate and clever interior. And despite the stats, the Tremor package would be extremely useful for us.

That was Toyota and their “self-charging hybrid.”

You’re right. Sunset doesn’t have a bike lane either. My bad. 

What not both?

Someone died in that crosswalk in 2014, hit by a driver. The flashing yellow light wasn’t enough, so now SFMTA is adding a stop light. (The intersection in question is down on the southern end of Sunset Boulevard, just a block north of Sloat).

My dad has a saying: “Never buy a car named after an island.”

At a USFS auction in the early 80s, Dad bought a full-size Dodge Crew Cab 4x4 pickup with a 360 V8 and front and rear bench seats. The driver’s door and front fender were crunched from what appeared to be a collision with a big tree. Dad bought a replacement dark green door and bright orange fender from a junkyard and…

Ford Model A Roadster or Jeep CJ-5.

Hah-hah.  Great reference.

Ram’s Ramcharger PHEV (EREV) has entered the chat. Big electric motor with a big generator. Win.
