    I think that looks really sharp.

    I mean.. They're somewhat useless for the look they bring to the table but at least they aren't actually 100% useless. It's still a pain in the hind to open the hoods because the hood is like neck-height to me at 5'8" and the leverage with those hooks isn't the greatest.
  3. ccap41
    Yeah, i get what you're saying. People definitely loved them. they sold like hotcakes at their absurd prices. Also, those hood hooks were used to open the hood as it opened Corvette-style.

    The grille looks juuuuuust a tad off on an otherwise very attractive package. The diesel option is a really cool touch.

    I always thought the H2 looked terrible because it looked like a bloated H1 but it really did have the off-road goodies suited for a civilian, mass-marketed, Hummer-branded vehicle.

    This looks great.

    SUVs being down for a company switching to only SUVs doesn't look great but I guess a couple new products arriving late in 2019(one of them being a botched launch) should set them up for a solid 2020. It's great to see the Expedition finally taking off.

    Typo.

    I get that and agree the people buying them aren't looking to race them but 169hp from a n/a motor(meaning it also has dogsh!t for torque) matched to a CVT is a combo to reads passing problems. Those GLAs and X1s atleast produce some torque. They also make a considerable amount more horsepower and probably around 100 lb-ft more torque. GLA produces 208hp/258tq X1 produces 228hp/258tq It is a completely different landscape there with much different driving circumstances.

    You can also get a 2.3T with 295hp and a plug-in hybrid with 25 miles of EV range and 266hp in the Corsair.
  11. ccap41
    Good lord... Nothing with a luxury brand should have ANYTHING with 169hp.
  12. ccap41
    I almost always go to when my light comes on which the car reads ~50 miles till empty. I don't feel the need to fill up earlier unless I foresee terrible weather or a road trip in the near future.
  13. ccap41
    I mean... I get that but not everything can be 60-100k and 500-700hp..

    Of course warranties are about bean counters, i the end. Had Hyundai and Kia not thrown massive warranties on their vehicles, they never would have taken off.
  15. ccap41
    That's because OEM's have to warranty their products for years and tens of thousands of miles.
  16. ccap41
    Just... never mind...

    "nobody cares what the national average is" uhhh.. how else would we all compare prices/costs when we all live in different locations? Still, you should have looked up the vehicle we're talking about. 24 or 28 gallon tanks. Yeah, on a performance vehicle I am all for paying whatever premium as it isn't driven 100% of the time and it's all out of pure enjoyment. Buuuuut... we're talking about a stock Silverado 6.2. That is not what I could classify as a "fast truck". It is very quick and serves its job exceptionally but, imo, it doesn't warrant the premium fuel prices.
  18. ccap41
    IMO, life is too short to piss money down the drain on premium vs regular for a non-performance vehicle...like a truck..
  19. ccap41
    Maybe you didn't realize the 2019 Silverado is brand new and the "been for decades" thing is irrelevant. You also must be picky and choosey with your STL prices as I drove past two stations this morning at 2.29/gal. Here is a REAL image of gasoline prices in the STL area, not whatever you are looking for. Even premium prices are lower that whatever you were searching for. That's a very reasonable price and especially if you have a membership, get your gas there as well. Because he said "5--6 bucks per tank".
  20. ccap41
    24 gallons * $0.60 = $14.40/tank.
  21. ccap41
    Phoenix is more an anomaly as the rest of the country averages $0.60/gal over regular. https://www.erieinsurance.com/blog/regular-and-premium-gas Sorry, I read 24-28 and assumed 28 was pretty standard but with the crew cab being the most popular option that is a 24 gallon tank. I don't see 26 anywhere. https://media.chevrolet.com/media/us/en/chevrolet/vehicles/silverado/2019.tab1.html I'll take a national average over one single station for statistical comparisons.
  22. ccap41
    It is not 5-6 bucks a tank more for premium in a Silverado. 28 gallon tank * $0.60 premium = $16.80 per tank. If your premium isn't 0.60 we can do $0.50 = $14.00 per tank
  23. ccap41
    The AT4 looks freakin great. GM is not "woke".
  24. ccap41
    Both look turrible.
  25. ccap41
    FWIW, it looks like they sold 113,066 Mustangs globally in 2018 so even a 10% drop still keeps them over 100,000 units. Just in the US, there wasn't a 10% drop though, -4.42%. Using -5% as an estimate, we can lightly assume they sold ~107,400 for 2019, globally.
