    The ALLTrack I really like, but like Chevrolet, VW marketing is pathetic and I think they lost sales by not marketing it as a activity wagon. Course did it ever get here to the US as I have never seen one here.

    REALITY, Mercedes is not all things to everyone. People who want trucks want it from a real truck company, not a Luxury car company, attempting to be a Chevrolet of all things with a model for every nook and cranny. Double Reality is that MB is going to have to stop wasting money on pie in the sky have something for everyone and get back to what they made money on, a focused luxury / performance line. Toyota / Chevrolet buyers buy Toyota / Chevrolet or equal. The Badge snobs who bought the few A, B & C auto's are turning them back in off lease in record numbers and going elsewhere as only 36% are retained. This dumps allot of luxury level Auto's on the used car market and yet there are only so much a down market can absorb. Welcome to the 21st century.

    Wow, that is not much difference, so the extra few inches actually hits the bottom of the garage door when up, seem that is a short roof garage. Really appreciate you posting it.

    Hello, Earth calling Venus, the story clearly touched on the whole company so if a body on frame truck deal is dead and other auto's are going to be pared down, this does then bring up a valid question on what is the update for their Hybrid / EV product lines.

    They say a classic set with the original box can sell for thousands.

    Yup, that is what I thought too. She did not seem to be the drive type of person. Talk about a perfect showing of the 3 generations of flat panel TVs here at the gym. The thickness change is just crazy. 20190716_204328.mp4

    Ugliest Acura ever, surprised to see one as you see plenty of their Cuvs but rarely an Acura car, especiallly the TL.

    @balthazar roflmao, just gassed up the SS and a lady in a BMW with NJ plates pulled up, window down and was just sitting. She finally asked me when would the attendant come fuel her up. Told her washington state is a self serve state, have to pump gas herself. The look on her face was priceless. I helped her out and chatted with her for a few min, nice lady just transferred out here for a tech job, first time ever living out of NJ. She told me that she loves her state, but is surprised at the cost differences and everything seems to be self service. I told her she will need to experience one of the Amazon grocery stores where you use a smartphone app and no one checks you out. Just make your selections and walk out the door. She did not believe me till I pointed her at it on her phone. She has that NJ twang so it will be interesting to see how she handles the rubber liberal west coast. End result, nice lady, but the fueling thing made me laugh based on out conversation about fueling.

    Running to Business costco and this lovely Cadillac station wagon was in front of me. Very clean. then after that someone was renting a fiat and a big dragon fly landed on the roof antenna and hitched a ride for a few miles.

    Leaving work to catch my bus home and a brand new Navi is at our door. Nice!

    Love this auto's style, just put on in-wheel hub motors and a proper 150 kWh battery pack and you have one hell of a Frunk and it will be ready to go!

    This does make one wonder what their Hybrid and EV portfolio will become. They also have the over rated Hyper Fluff Vapor Car that still is not a saleable product. It might be time to just kill the Money Pit and admit they cannot make an F1 engine work on normal roads.

    Did a respectable 144K plus last year in North America.

    This is like Throwing darts to try and find a way to put the focus back on your Fanboi MB company. Just about everyone including carmax has their own version of owner loyalty. https://www.thestreet.com/story/12861722/1/10-car-brands-with-the-most-loyal-buyers.html https://www.cnbc.com/2014/07/02/car-buyers-are-most-loyal-to-these-brands.html https://www.autoblog.com/photos/car-brands-most-least-loyal-owners/ https://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2016/01/top-10-vehicles-with-the-most-loyal-buyers.html https://brobible.com/culture/article/edmunds-most-least-loyal-car-owners/ Everyone has their own take on Owner Loyalty. Yet on par is that MB only retains 36% of their customers. So they loose out to many others after a costly terrible ownership experience it would seem. Want to know where this comes from, check out the links I posted, seems many are of the same thought about MB auto's. Only 36% are willing to stay with MB auto's for repeated purchase it would seem.

    So the question is where has he been? ?
  16. G. David Felt
    Can you please take a photo and show us, I am interested in what it looks like. Thank you Blu

    Are we sure there are millions, otherwise I would be seeing them far more often than a couple times a year. Maybe 20 to 30 thousand owners across North America.

    If people are upgrading every 3 years for badge snobs, then the sales of Lincoln Navigator this year are people who bought in 2016. Lincoln sold 10,421 Navigators in 2016 and sold 17,839 Navigators in 2018. So why would they not retain the bulk of their existing customers as they add customers from other brands as conquest sales. http://carsalesbase.com/us-car-sales-data/lincoln/lincoln-navigator/ It would seem Lincoln has retained a high level of existing customers as they also conquest other brands. Considering how bad the Germans have been tarnished over Diesel gate and the amount of German auto's piling up on dealership lots, I suspect Conquest is heavy on the Germans. In regards to these models, Love the two tone brown / Black Interior. Looks very much Luxury and the monochromatic colors are awesome, just wish they had a few more colors.

    THANK YOU, That is amazing looking. Loved reading about their story. https://rosatisfrozencustard.com/about/

    Awesome Truck, Congratulations. Did you remove the lower plastic black valence on this one. I cannot tell by the photos? Love the Z71 Package! Are those little mud flaps in front of the rear wheels?

    Never said they were angry, diesel-spraying woman. Just a fact woman do not like dirty greasy things and would when given the option not have to deal with gassing up an auto. Ford put together an all womans engineering team who designed and built key parts of the Ford Flex. They first used the design of a vacuum sealed gas door with no gas cap as it removed one more dirty item that woman did not like to touch. As such, we have now seen this copied and in use by plenty of various auto companies on their auto lines. I bet if you asked your wife about this, she would say she would rather not have to touch a gas cap or fuel an auto if she had her choice.

    GM Marketing needs to get back to Basic's. Focus on family and the uses that auto's can have that Families would want to use it for. Show trucks doing things like hauling an RV trailer, boat with family inside of the truck enjoying the interior amenities. Show SUV's / CUV's doing the same thing pulling a PWC, or 2 person small RV. Couples having some we time in a National Park. Show cars out on the town for the night with couples and families. Cadillac XT family of CUVs should be shown being driven into a golf course with a young couple planning to enjoy a round of golf. Show a senior couple with grandkids pulling into an amusement park arriving in luxury for a fun filled day. It does not take rocket science to match up common use cases to how various auto's are used and highlight the superior nature of those auto's to the public on why they should buy GM. Arrive in the 21st Century driving a GM!
