Thank you, yes this is the dash I was thinking of and to me very retro with the round dial knobs, the upright flat dash and the after thought nav screen. To me this is retro terrible for a modern 21st century auto.

You all need to see this...
G. David Felt replied to A Horse With No Name's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
Very cool, I do love how they can track how much energy each auto has left and far more driving skill involved to capitalize on position and finishing. -
Just saw this on GMC Instagram story and love the black chrome grill. Best looking in a long time. AT4 Rocks!

Chicago 2019: 2020 Subaru Legacy: Comments
G. David Felt replied to William Maley's topic in Chicago Auto Show (CAS)
Yet @Drew Dowdell is spot on here, Subaru is the Japanese safe Volvo equal. -
Must be thinking of the aviator that has that after thought Nav screen sitting on top of the vents just sticking up in an odd place and the retro controls below. White Nautilus was going the opposite direction from me on 220th here, so saw it coming and going in the mirror was it. Thanks for posting that pic. That is a much nicer dash than what I had in my head. Your right the berry red seats and trim is nice.

Have to totally disagree with you on the retro style A-class dash starting at a mind numbing $32,995. The spec's show me I can get many superior auto options for that amount of money from US and Asian auto's. Hell what they are asking for is easily out classed by a higher quality CPO.

Just saw my first in the wild White Lincoln Nautilus. Brand new, only had paper tags in the back window. Sharp looking from the outside, but still not sold on the interior and retro look n feel. Does remind me of the late 70's luxury auto's.

Just finished getting it updated from when I last tried it 6 months ago, Very different interface, I see they still have the home page of all things advertised. Will play with it and see how it goes as I have recently started to hate the way Chrome and Firefox works and Edge just does not deliver either.

2017 NHTSA Report that Tesla Autopilot Cut Crashes 40% Called "Bogus"
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Tesla
I like to believe that auto pilot type self driving does reduce accidents, but not by 40%. -
Awesome, job, Love the work you have done so far. Consider using plastic wheel well liners, this will reduce the rust issue and make it a bit quieter. Excited to see this progress. Give us a little video if you do not mind with your long range plans for the truck. Keep up the great work. This is how I did my first auto which was a Chevy Truck. Complete tear down and rebuild back to factory spec in 1983. Auto Projects Rock!

I have used it, I have mixed feelings about how it works. Some things I love, others make me go Hmmmmm. ?

Makes me wonder if GM would not take the smart Business sense of killing off Buick in the US. Leave it GMC, Chevrolet and Cadillac which would make more sense to me than wasting dollars on Buick name plate.

Land Rover News: Land Rover Debuts New Inline-6 Engine
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Land Rover
Thanks, the story did not identify that they were building their own. Since they used Ford engines for so long and their own engines are not known to be reliable, I mad the assumption they were taking a German I6 which would make sense over building their own except as you stated. Thanks again for that info. -
What have we done? 2016 Malibu 1LT 1.5t
G. David Felt replied to regfootball's topic in Member's Rides Showcase
All the stupid safety Nanny devices probably. -
As excited as I was when this car came out, I was totally disappointed in it when I saw it at the Seattle Auto show and just not myself but average size people had a hard time fitting in it and the amount of questions all focused on why just a black interior and why just all hard plastic, why does it feel and look so cheap was pretty much a doom from the beginning. This was a great idea, but poorly executed car that will always fail to live up to what was expected.

Land Rover News: Land Rover Debuts New Inline-6 Engine
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Land Rover
I6 had their day, V6 has their day now and Electric is the future. I see no reason to waste good money on building a new I6 when they will all be replaced with electric motors. Land Rover is buying the I6 from another company either BMW or MB probably and will then help reduce that companies R&D expense. No reason at all for GM to waste millions if not billions to build one. -
A.I. is the hot new Job market, gotta start out empty and learn.

But was the body still 100% in tact or rust holes everywhere. I hear the Salt Brine there loves to eat auto's for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

Pictures confirm 8 exhaust per side, makes me think it has dual V8 engines based on the info on the website, but clearly no other information to confirm this. Dual V8's tied together is very cool.

GM News: GM To Launch Electric Bike Brand in Europe
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in General Motors
These prices are right inline with current electric bikes here in the States and in Europe. Benefit of the GM eBike is that it has class leading Torque and a cell phone holder with USB and Bluetooth. Now celebrating 10 years here in Seattle, you can compare and see that the prices are inline with what GM is selling them for in the 3 largest European market. https://www.seattleelectricbike.net/ A number of US eBike dealers are willing to import this bike for those that are interested. -

MEH, so complex, so expensive to maintain and repair. Give me an Electric power train over this mess.
