    Is it Turbo Charged?

    Agreed, we need to stop all the socialist crap of having graduations for getting out of 5th grade, 6th grade etc. Stop saying everyone is a winner. Competition is and always will have winners and loser's. FACT! We need generations that will compete to be the best not accept mediocrity of society and feel everyone should be the same. Communism and Socialism are failures. Hybrid is what it is as Pure capitalism also fails. Some safety nets are needed but short term and by all means knock off the you can live on the gov crap.

    Excuses, Excuses, they have already fufilled Mini faithfull demand. Now they are trying to figure out how to sell the same auto on a different message when most people that want small micro compacts have them. I do not see the release of 2015 models causing that big of a sales jump.

    So Drew then do you think this is his legacy of where he left product and sales? If so that would tend to tell me that he did not do a very good job of building a bullpen of mgrs that could take over and keep things growing.

    Interesting, they will have to really work on their design language as there is nothing they make that is of interest to me.

    G. David Felt Alternative Energy writer www.cheersandgears.com Ford Earnings and Sales - New CEO issues or a wait and see attitude? Ford stock has tumbled 7% since they released news that 2014 sales would be neutral or down for the year based on weaker sales in Europe and South America. Ford also has stated that North America will be less profitable in 2014 due to investments in new technology and expect operating margins to be 8-10% lower than expected. Stock has gone from a high of 18 dollars in July to just above 14 dollars a share now. Is this due to Alan Mulally leaving? An inexperienced new CEO? Total auto sales for 2014 are expected to be between 16 - 17 million new auto's. Far stronger than Fords prediction of 15.9 million. Ford has/had many new auto launches this year and a radical change for the F150 product line. Is this just a lull of reduced profits to clean out inventory ahead of a banner year for new auto sales that will pay off for years ahead and which would indicate a buyers time for Ford stock? Or is this a indication that not all is right in the Ford camp and bigger issues are on the horizon and Alan fled before having to deal with the problems? Sounds off on what you think about Ford Earnings and Sales and the direction the company will go in the short and long term.

    SUV's will always help to bring a Luxury makers age down. My feeling is that eventually the mass produced FWD appliances that MB and BMW are making will cause people to step back and say WOW, this is no different than a Chevy, Ford or Toyota. Bland cars and boring rides. I saw yesterday a 128I or I128 BMW convertible and my wife asked me what the heck that ugly car was. I explained it to her and she said she would rather drive a Chevy or Dodge over that ugly auto. Yet even with that, the old guy driving it took off up the road fast as some younger kids were buzzing by in their tuned out asian cars and when we finally got up north on the freeway he was pulled over by the police. So I guess it does not matter which level of BMW you drive, they all are assholes

    Your right the "Edgar" walking skin guy. That scene was funny and the car looks just like him in that scene. You too can drive an Edgar Skin Auto!

    The Chevy Trax in Mocca with the brown interior is just lovely, nice and warm.

    Cadillac Leadership and Marketing need to better explain this stupid CT / XT crap to the world. Escalade will stay but they are flushing away ATS, CTX, XTS history and totally ignoring the name history they have that would do much better. Truth be told, XT, ST, etc is what one would expect out of concept auto's. Names are where it should be at!

    SMK, While this story covers a wide range of auto's, BMW had 2 cars in it and MB had none and yet the winner as best driving cars was a Chevy Z28! How does German engineering beat American every time in your mind when independent testing shows America can build ultimate driving cars. http://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/autosbdc/2014-motor-trends-best-drivers-car/ar-BB5Jkrz It beat Porsche, Fiat, Nissan, etc. Long list of auto's that have always been touted as superior but failed to live up to the hype.

    Wonder if it could fit the Katech engineered, sold by Motus V4. http://motusmotorcycles.com/american-v4

    This will build customer good will as people love to see a company proactively be responsible.
  17. G. David Felt
    Sounds Awesome, People Love Performance Compact CUV's!
  18. G. David Felt
    Minor issues, glad that GM is proactive in making sure their customers are safe in the auto's they drive!
  19. G. David Felt
    Diesel would be awesome, Put in the 2.9L Duramax Diesel and let the Buggers Fly!
  20. G. David Felt
    Could haul some manure, boxs, etc maybe a fold up bike.

    So since no real driver can ever reproduce the actual states given for a car, guess this can at best in real world driving get 10 miles of pure electric driving. What a joke.
  22. G. David Felt
    Guess I have become dulled to the point of boredom, as I see no difference in this car to what Audi already has out.
  23. G. David Felt
    Cute bugger, I can see this as a popular auto for young people and for those wanting a small solid commuter auto especially with AWD.
  24. G. David Felt
    Good Luck KnightFan, I know it is always hard to release things you have had around for a long time.
  25. G. David Felt
    If you remove the Mazda 6 and CX-5 Mazda is really on decline. False numbers as they need to correct their family of auto's to keep sales growth rather than just focus on 1 or 2 auto's.
