  1. So I wonder what Cadillac will call their EV line when they launch it? Should they have their own designation like what BMW did or more like MB where they just take existing models and have an EV version? Should it be a sub category all on it's own under existing categories? Cars are - CT CUVs are - XT Escalade is Escalade EV cars are - ? EV CUVs are - ?
  2. With more auto companies calling for a global emissions standard, I would expect diesel in Europe to follow the US as well as in China. I think Hybrid / EVs are going to by 2020 be replacing many auto's including diesel.
  3. I agree, I think he was just blowing smoke for now and expect the twin turbo V8 to be near 600HP when it comes out, no less than 550HP.
  4. Wow, interesting review, Love the quality of the hood, Everything I am seeing is truly quality built. Love the demo of the 4WS. Very cool to see them putting this on Cadillac where it belongs. The auto if freak-in beautiful and I truly say this competes with the 5 series and E Class.
  5. So are you saying to have the current SRX refreshed and then sell it as an XT4 or XT3?
  6. Tesla emailed out today a sales pitch about Tesla OwnerShip made EASY. Model S for as little as $698 per months or equivalent of $531 per month after fuel savings. Trade in any lease or loan program auto and Tesla will help you unload the auto and get into a Tesla Certified Pre-Owned Tesla with 4yr-50,000 mile bumper to bumper warranty starting under $50,000 Small Print ends with *Lease - 10,000 miles per year max on 36 month lease Total due at signing $6393. So I wonder just how much Tesla is hurting? So what are your thoughts on this?
  7. Question as Drew has pointed out, the Whisper Diesel is scheduled for 2017, the drop for 2016 was known and expected and not news to those aware of the industry. Bigger question, if the BOLT takes off like I believe it will with a 225 mile battery pack as stated by GM, then is there a need for the Cruze Diesel? Will GM end up shelving it if the BOLT really takes off in sales? Thoughts?
  8. Plus will help with rebuilding the destroyed rep of VW and help Porsche with their MPG issue also.
  9. I was thinking my relatives could be more like this!
  10. Thanks, I have a ton of relatives in that area supposedly but never been there or met them. One day have to drive out and see what other Felts are like in the mid west. Im envisioning this for you: All in the name of fun...of course Mr DFELT! So very true, after all with a last name of FELT, so many jokes, so little time! Felt You!

  12. Journey is good, but today it is more of a
  13. Sweet, glad to hear the 2.0L Turbo is impressive.
  14. Cool Little Truck, Imagine putting in the Duramax Diesel 2.8 L or the 1.6L turbo 4 banger. Make this thing scream. Agree with the story, only worth about $1K, not the $4K they are asking.
  15. And they could put the Coupe on a modified S550 Platform But that would make it just as good or better than SMK's beloved MB product line.
  16. I agree, well the QX doesn't confuse me but I think they could have saved the X for AWD models. Q# cars QX# awd cars and just choose a random letter to signify SUV/SUV and do the same thing. Very True, BMW uses X for their awd auto's. This goes with the idiot who decided to drop AWD on the Escalade and go with 4WD which is also used on Suburbans. Yes as in another thread I learned that 4WD on the escalade allows you to go 2WD, 4WD High, 4WD LO and 4WD Auto which is pretty much the same as AWD. Just wish Cadillac had put some thought into this as it is a superior system to the old AWD system but does more than the 4x4 system on the suburban. Infiniti should have put more thought into their naming of Auto's.
  17. Kid clearly must have had rich parents with the right connection to get an F1 driving gig as he is not that great of a driver even on snow.
  18. What does STL stand for? Being west coast based, I am trying to figure out what city this is on the east coast or mid west.
  19. Coupe does look nice. Wonder if they will build it and when.
  20. Very cool, Glad she is liking the interior color, I think it is very warm and inviting.
  21. I have come to the point that if they want Q for cars, fine, but QX is and always will be confusing. They have NO History with QX so why not go with a better way to clearly state CUV/SUV. Why not just go with X then to designate it as a CUV/SUV or maybe XO.
  22. This should be good as I know there are many who do not want to own their own auto. Sharing I expect to become about 15-20% of the auto's on the road by 2020.
  23. Very Nice Ride! Way to go for your mom!
  24. So the building I work in took away 4 spots on the 1st floor of parking for gas auto's and installed chargers and designated them EV only. I decided to keep an eye on them, empty all day, not a single EV in the spots. Wonder how much we will loose to dedicated EV only parking with chargers before we see this take off and they are always full? Will the Chevy BOLT drive more use of dedicated EV parking and chargers? How about all the other members here, have you seen more and more regular parking converted to EV only parking with chargers?
  25. Agree, 4 banger diesel and V6 is perfect for the Wrangler.
