On their latest vision quest, the Kia marketing team were making Trax on their Traverse from Tahoe to their way to Colorado and stumbled into a small ski town. You never know where/when inspiration will strike.

Maybe it’s too early for my sleep addled mind but I found keeping track of all the players in the story harder than parsing the threads of Dr Zhivago. I need some kind of diagram with peoples faces or something.

I only hope a warning message comes across the dash advising occupants to exit before “House Party Protocol” is initiated.

“fail fast and innovate faster” sounds great while sitting in a bean bag in an IDEO think space.

Edit: Nevermind. 

I rode around in the backseat for about 5 miles. It was pretty terrible but overall room wasn’t bad. one person can kind of sit at an angle. The worst offense was the angle of the seat back. I swear it is leaning forward, making the ride a nice core workout.

We need more sports cars so I’m happy it’s here.

details and butter covered thoughts aside, how do you reckon this compares to a modern day super car. With the right driver, could something like this hang with a Mclaren 720?

He said, in the post you replied to, that both Ram setups (air/traditional) were superior. 

thanks again. I wonder if this comparo bodes well for the upcoming body on frame SUV. 

Thanks. And you mention the comparison of the Ram 1500. When you say that the Ram edges out the Sierra’s adaptive dampers over pot hotles, would that comparison also hold true in road manners (that the Ram rides a little better?).

Did the adaptive dampers improve body roll on the road? I assume you can’t get them with the rancho shocks but only in the regular height version. 

easy. just pickup another 993 (preferrably damaged but in this income bracket who cares?), snag vin plate and title. What am I missing?

Seems the registration issue is easily solved a number of ways:
