    I will agree with you SMK that Cadillac could easily have an XT4 and maybe an XT3, but nothing smaller is really needed. Leave the subcompact market to Buick. For sure an XT7 is needed. I also agree with you that GMC should have a Subcompact model below the Terrain that is a very butch offroad capable CUV. Something with the off road capability of the late Hummer line.

    I like the Avenir package, but whish they would offer it in a Black edition. Being Black Chrome. Are you sure? Enclave has 3 rows of seats compared to the XT5 2 rows of seats. Also according to other news reports, GM seems to have confirmed that the 2018 Enclave is built on the same platform as the new Chevrolet Traverse and the upcoming 3 row Cadillac XT7. This would indicate it is indeed bigger than the XT5. http://gmauthority.com/blog/2017/01/report-2018-buick-enclave-full-size-cadillac-crossover-to-be-built-in-lansing/

    Interior is so dated, reminds me of the 90's, no make it the 80's dash. Exterior, also so 1990's dated. Other than the headlights, this car looks like it is already in year 4 or 5 of the model year and needs a major refresh.

    Nothing Inspiring, just a dated look. Is this from the 1990's?

    No problem with that, I can totally understand this and sometimes, an almost identical tool from another place just offers the one thing that American manufacturing does not. Gotta stay open to the world to incorporate the best of everyone.
  8. G. David Felt
    Yes, I would totally agree.

    We'll thought it was time for us to have a fun thread of posting stuff we find from Japan. Crazy the auto modifications that are allowed in Japan for street legal driving.

    This Builder takes a Mazda MX-5 and builds these English Style Roadsters. Mitsuoka Himiko The Mitsuoka Himiko is a Japanese sports car designed and built by Mitsuoka. It is named after Himiko, an obscure shaman queen of Yamataikoku in ancient Wa. In the UK it is known as the Mitsuoka Roadster. Based on the Mazda MX-5 NC, Mitsuoka replaces most of the body panels, fits Fibre-reinforced plastic panneling, leather seats and extends the wheelbase front of the A-pillar to generate the long bonnet line reminiscent of English roadsters such as the Jaguar XK120 and particularly the Morgan Aero 8. Designed by Takanori Aoki, the exterior theme of the Himiko is said to mimic a 'ship riding the high seas cruising majestically as one with the waves'. Transmission and roof options are similar to the MX-5 with the option of either a 6 speed automatic transmission with manual shifting or a 6 speed manual transmission. Each Mitsuoka vehicle is handmade by just 45 skilled craftsmen at the Japanese Mitsuoka factory in Toyama City, Japan. http://www.mitsuoka-motor.co.uk/ http://www.mitsuoka-himiko.com/ Bing Images

    History lesson, Deming tried to teach the US manufacturing industry how to build better products in the 70's and was blown off as a waste of time and money. Deming then went to Japan and they listened and followed his methodology to become the manufacturing power they are today. If it was not for American thinking of better ways to build products, the US arrogance of we are best already and blowing off Demming, Japan would not become who they are today. Germans also decided after Japan to follow the Demming way. Only after American Auto industry has been beaten to a pulp by the rest of the industry did they finally wake up to building better products. http://www.wyohistory.org/encyclopedia/w-edwards-deming If you want to be the best, you have to rethink how you build the best.

    Not this American, Bling is so Baby Boomer 1960's. Yet BMW and Benze makes billions off selling monochromatic versions of their auto's at the high trim levels especially the AMG and M line. I love the look of black chrome far better than traditional chrome. To me luxury is understated and not a bling reflection attack as you drive down the highway. I agree self limiting, I love the world and from all over. I choose to support American Companies first before moving onto products from the rest of the world. That is the difference some of us have. America First, then the world. things get along just fine then.

    I see no problem with crushing, I wonder if the bean counters have taken all the work and time to fix TDI's versus just crushing them all and recycling the scrap. Wonder what the cost difference would be.

    Too funny!

    Drunk maybe?

    WOW She looks like she is not sure what happened even though it is her fault.

    Very cool fast fast fun!

    Love the look, wish they had an option for Monochromatic Avenir and Premium version. Not sure why American auto companies think Chrome Everything is a requirement to express that you have a top of the line auto!

    LOL, the one that cracks me up is when I see Ultimate Off road capable for a 2wd RWD/FWD CUV. Are people really that stupid to not realize that the 2wd RWD/FWD CUVs are pretty much on road drivers only? This seems to be very common for Jeep posting of 2WD wranglers, Patriots, Compass, etc.

    When the light is on, have you stopped by an O'Reilly's to borrow their scanner and see what the codes are that have been thrown? This would give you a good idea of where to begin the hunt for the cause. I wonder if the vent line is plugged.
