Better proportions than the Gladiator!

Hot take: It looks better than a Jaguar E-Type

make it a 2 door and I would be sold.

I just think it’s flat out too big as well as too expensive. At about 218" long, it’s almost 6" longer than a than any other midsize truck while having the shortest bed (yeah, only a fraction of a inch, but my point stands). It’s not like it’s really much roomier inside than the competitors. While it is super cool,…

That’s the problem, you can get a bigger, more capable truck for the same money. There were plenty of Gladiators at the local Jeep dealership for well into the $50k range. That’s 3/4 ton truck money. I love the idea of a Wrangler pickup priced to compete with midsize offerings, not so much priced against 1/2 to 3/4…

I love that the driver’s airbag went sideways far enough to allow the driver to smack their face on the wheel and dashboard.  Perfectly useless.

So, slow, heavy and unexciting?

You could get both, but I think Honda’s AWD system in this car was pretty much front-drive most of the time anyway.

I thought it was a Model X until I noticed it has normal doors.

Seeing them next to each other helps to differentiate them, but that still doesn’t change the fact that it’s practically the same exact design. 

Not surprised: It looks like all they did was take a model 3 and make the roof more “humpback”

If losing a rotary is inevitable, an Inline 6 is at least an acceptable consolation. I’m not a big rotary nerd, I just think they sound cool and I appreciate things that are different. But I also recognize it might just be a concept that will never pan out to the extent that piston engines have.

I saw the reaction to Sonmez’s tweet yesterday and was holding my breath for the WaPo’s reaction. Yup. They made the wrong call, just like I thought they would. You don’t punish a reporter for conveying accurate information. She didn’t tweet it directly to his family. She didn’t add commentary calling him anything…

Thank you. For a reporter to be punished by a purported news organization for accurately pointing out that he was very credibly accused of rape, is fucking insane.

Yeah in 5 years when it’s worth 12k, they’ll be thrilled to have paid that markup.

Sample Kia Telluride markup items:

I missed the part where it’s going to be an active lifestyle crossover with an available EV version.

Someone in planning was lied to about how big 8" actually is.

Corporate pilot here. Absolutely the most difficult part of this was getting him to the airplane. After he’s onboard, easy peasy japanesey.
