  1. The one I thought would really give it to Tesla has piss-poor range in comparison, Taycan.
  2. That actually sounds slightly worse than Ford and their piece of ish DCT. They "at least" extended the warranty coverage period.
  3. Everybody has been "about to challenge Tesla" for five years now.
  4. 2021 F150 sees a little light.
  5. Didn't they have a 330e last gen or out already? I know somebody with one but I don't know what year it is. I think it's only rated 20-something EV miles but it's easily exceeded.
  6. They can ask any company like Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Lincoln, Porsche, Audi, Lexus, Honda, Toyota, Land Rover...
  7. Auto commercials are the easiest commercials to make and GM puts out this "real people" trash. Truck, show a video of it doing truck things with music. sports sedan, show a video of it hustling on back roads or a track with music. SUV, filling up with people and bags with music. Than there's GM's garbage. Let's show a sports sedan losing a race to a man on foot. "real people" thinking a Malibu looks like a BMW.. ? I get you're a GM-guy, but you're the only person I've ever heard even remotely try and defend that crap and you're far from the only person I know who loves GM. They're just so poorly executed and exaggerated. It's like they chose the 6 stupidest "real people" for each commercial. *gasp* after *gasp*.
  8. They're slammed because they're garbage. Show off the vehicle not fake-ass reactions.
  9. If those two are cross shopped, the XT6 looses 10 times out of 10, saving $10,000.
  10. It technically is more than the Buick and Chevy... 5 lb-ft more but at 2200rpm HIGHER. Wouldn't the GX be closer in comparison to an XT6? GX : $53,000 XT6 : $52,695 XT5 and RX are similarly priced as the XT6 & GX.
  11. Weak. 271 torques in a 3-row, luxury SUV shouldn't be a thing. The XT5 is large enough that there should be an upgrade available and the XT4 doesn't really need more(258 in the turbo-4) but an optional engine would be nice. This is a luxury automaker, after all. Lincoln, mother fckn Lincoln, has a much better drivetrain portfolio than Cadillac does right now with the 4.2 being discontinued and no s/c V8 available.
  12. Cadillac is probably advertising on shows liked "My 600lb Life". ?
  13. Do any of their CUVs make more than 300 lb-ft of torque? Obviously the Escalade does but that's not a CUV.
  14. It all depends what you're watching. I was also at the gym last night and somebody had like CBS or NBC on the TV in front of me(unfortunately, because I wanted to watch the Blues game) and there was a new Lincoln Corsair commercial and I have certainly seen GMC ads in the past week but I don't know what channel or show I was watching(the one with the fancy Sierra tailgate).
  15. That's just annoying. We've moved a handful of times at my current job and we have a moving team(the building is slowly being remodeled floor by floor) but I've never been told not to take things myself. I haven't heard of Toyota, Honda, Mercedes, or BMW plants having issues. OHSA is still a thing.
  16. That reminds me of a time a buddy of mine just started a new job and he needed to get his job done but before he needed something else finished by "somebody else", who wasn't there. He said "screw it" because he was perfectly capable of doing whatever it was so he could get to his own job. He got written up for it. Fck. modern Unions.
  17. Isn't that already done being produced and the other one hasn't officially been announced, just assumed?
  18. It only took 12 hours to fix that train pileup. Also, I've said it here and I'll say it again for clarity. The idea of unions is absolutely wonderful! They were put in place to protect the worker and for fair pay. They were completely necessary when they were originally established and probably decades after, as well. Today, however, they are garbage, corrupt, and don't make working hard beneficial.
  19. "The end result is the quickest SUV we've ever tested. In 0-60 mph tests, the Urus smokes both the Tesla Model X and Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S fastback, accelerating to 60 mph in just 3.0 seconds and running the quarter mile in 11.3 seconds at 120.1 mph. And, thanks to pizza-pie-sized carbon ceramic brakes and lightweight aluminum bodywork (despite its size, the Urus weighs just 4,931 pounds—believe it or not, that's pretty light for its class), the Lamborghini can stop from 60 to 0 mph in just 107 feet. That chassis, despite being the progeny of Audi, helps the Urus handle as a Lamborghini should, too. Aided by a hyper-responsive air suspension system and four-wheel steering, the Urus pulls 1.01 g average on the skidpad and laps the figure eight in 23.5 seconds at 0.87 g. To put the latter number into context, that's quicker than an Aston Martin Vantage (24.0 seconds at 0.83 g), a Porsche Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo (23.8 seconds at 0.85 g), and a BMW M5 (23.7 seconds at 0.84 g), and it ties the last Audi R8 V10+ we tested (23.5 seconds at 0.90 g). "
  20. Those big-ole body on frame SUVs dwarf the GLS and X7.
  21. Yeah, that's true. The very southern part of the state is pretty but 95% of the rest is flat and boring. Oh that's East St. Louis for ya and it's actually super sketchy over there. About the only safe-ish place is the Casino..lol
  22. Exactly, I can't imagine the time and money spent testing the Ford 1.6T that ended up having all sorts of issues. Oh, and the Powerstroke 6.0. I've owned a Mercedes and currently have one in the household.
  23. Everything gets torture tested for hundreds of thousands of miles and things still happen.
