    We'll not a fan of the multi layered look in side of the dash, I think the GMC is better looking right now with what they are selling and I do not like the Roman color tabs between the upper and lower light sections. Right now I think Chevy has gone down in their style for their SUV/Trucks. I thought the last design style was better than this and GMC was weaker but then they seem to flip flop between the two divisions. Interested to see what GMC does.

    Awesome reading, very informative and I enjoyed it. Thanks for the review Bill. Learned some good things. Dash is not bad, interior looks better than others in this class. Exterior is what I have come to expect from Toyota. It should do well for those that love Toyota. QUESTION: You state there is a button for EV mode. So then you always have to push this when you first get in to run on pure electric only till the battery is depleted? QUESTION: How many miles in pure EV mode does it support and what is the top speed in EV mode? QUESTION: Anyway to make EV mode always on by default?

    COOL, GM is asking Uncle Sam to allow them to have true driverless auto's in the US. A modified BOLT with no steering wheel and pedals, the front left seat would be open for passengers. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-gm-selfdriving/no-pedal-to-the-metal-in-gms-planned-self-driving-cruise-av-car-idUSKBN1F10DT

    Tested on Android with Chrome and Firefox and it looks and works great. Even works smooth on Samsung own funky browser.

    I looked at all the pictures and did not see the V8 exhaust tip, Did I miss it as the tips in the pictures above remind me more of a Chevy Bowtie.

    Toyota's Design for autonomous auto's does not give me much faith of having exciting transport.

    @Cubical-aka-Moltar @Drew Dowdell We need a Puke Reaction, All I could do is laugh at those toasters / trams rather then Puke!

    I know the stories say the hood scoop will not be there, but I can see it on a V edition of the Car. Yes it has the over all body of the Escala car and I will say for a 4 door coupe sedan it is one of the better executed if they hold close to the concept. Yet with that, being said and as we have discussed how homogenized the car segment has become, I was hoping for something more. I wonder how close to the interior it will stay?

    Meh, no big deal, I like the cross grill better, but I am sure this will sell to the faithful and grow on everyone.

    Since we have seen crease lines on the lower section of the sides of an auto, you would think you could play more with the Aero roof and pillars to give it a better look. I agree with you totally right now the Coupe 4 door look is so homogenized to be forgettable.

    Car is a fine generic car as cars go, red lines added a sports car do not make. I guess I am just not a VW customer as it is still very bland looking, forgettable to me.
  12. G. David Felt
    Totally agree with you, I like the slider and the variable size it becomes depending on your web window.

    Talk about Mud Fun Sliding, Prius with driver caught in mudslide flowing down the road. https://www.usatoday.com/videos/news/2018/01/11/prius-slides-down-hill-propelled-california-mudslide/109365532/ More amazing pics of the mudslides in CA. http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Prius-swept-away-Burbank-mudslide-video-rain-12491505.php

    CES 2018 - Honda Electric World of Wonder Honda CES Web Page This week we have the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas and Honda has had their day today by showing off their new electric powered products using a mobile power pack that is plug in play for their ATV, UTV, Scooter, and so much more. Their new 3E concepts are all AI empowered to help humans live a better life. Honda not only thought of how this could be used as a portable power supply with ease of use but also how it can work in a consumer assist mode such as their new 3E Robotics Devices. These cover an AI powered UTV (3E-D18), ease about powered chair and so much more. 3E Concept Robotics Devices At Japans population grows into their senior years, births have been going down and with no emigration allowed, Japan is finding the need for robotic help for their population to be in more demand than ever. Honda has focused on Empowering humans with Empathy and an experience of freedom from their robots.

    Guess it is a Malibu / MB Coupe based butt. Over all I dislike the lack of distinct rear decks. Coupe design is overdone now on all auto's.
  16. G. David Felt
    Nope clarified my original post, Acura worst, then Edge, Lincoln best out of the 3.
  17. G. David Felt
    WOW, Talk about a Butt by MB, Cut off nose for the front and just weird lines over all, Honda design language does nothing for me. Sad as they build pretty reliable auto's excluding the stupid engineering parts on their CRV from what we know via Drew.
  18. G. David Felt
    @ccap41 I get your point and agree with what your saying except for the Acura, Drew hit the nail on the head with the button abomination comment! In regards to the Acura, Lincoln wins best out of the 3 dash's.

    Nice looking car, for a car.
  20. G. David Felt
    Yea, not much better in the Lincoln MKX 2018 version of the Edge. Sorry @ccap41, but for the money we know they will charge for this, they need to do much better than this.

    Nice looking CUV, they have improved this allot with plenty I do like about the auto. Dash is the failure here for me, the minimalist, hard plastic just comes off CHEAP on an auto that we know is going to cost some serious dollars as it is the ST top of the line version. This is where Ford fails for me is they put some cool tech, build a nice looking auto and then go cheap on the inside where you spend the bulk of your time. Seats look nice, rest of the interior based on these pictures is ok, but the dash is the failure here IMHO.

    Guess someone thought of strong roll over protection over ease of getting in and out. Weird for sure, but cool.

    I have to say I am probably on extreme ends of the music spectrum. I grew up playing trumpet and piano so I love Jazz, but also just about everything else out there. Lately, I have been bouncing back n forth between Japanese Jazz, Depeche Mode and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Toshiki Kadomatsu Keiko Matsui Depeche Mode Red Hot Chili Peppers

    Just Ribbing you my man!

    That is a really cool story and awesome engineering out of the box thinking.
