Tires/wheels, gears, short throw shifter, throttle body, tunes.. I mean how much is involved in taking an 18 second car to 10.5? That involves thoroughly rebuilding the engine the same way making massive gains are on a new vehicle.

It's probably an easy up-sell to a double cab for only $18 a month for 84 months.

How do you believe so? There are still plenty of smaller things one can do without getting inside the engine itself.

Industry News: Could Pricing Finally Crack Truck Buyer Loyalty?

The Durango definitely is the looker of the group though. Get that bad boy in R/T trim and it's a legitimately good looking vehicle.- 45 replies

Toyota News: Toyota Unveils the 2020 Yaris Hatchback
ccap41 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Toyota
That makes the most sense to me. It was kind of a "why not?" thing. -
I've never been in one but I've seen a few and they're quite the looker. It would be tough to take the dive in on Alfa's reliability though. I'm not sure where they are at now but FCA doesn't seem to be too high on reliability lists outside of Ram, Wrangler, GC, and the LX siblings.

I didn't realize the Enclave was that much larger. I would have assumed the Durango was the slightly larger of the two had I not looked up their dimensions.- 45 replies

That's odd they'd have a sedan built by Mazda but a hatch built by themselves.. -
It's surprising to see Alfa down with their hot CUV out now.

I think the current one is also a Mazda 2, just older. -

Exactly. A buddy of mine who him and his wife recently had their first baby upped their Buick Encore to a Buick Enclave because they have a baby now.. I think they plan a second but his justification was nothing more than they want something larger, when you looked past the BS reasonings. I get it. In the end, people buy what they want regardless.- 45 replies

Of all my friends and family only one is wanting something smaller than his 2500HD Ram because he no longer tows with it. Everybody else has bought larger or talks about their next vehicle being a step up in size. I don't think Americans are wanting to go smaller, as a whole.- 45 replies

People buying $1500 - $5000 trucks has nothing to do with the brand new truck market. Yeah, literally everything comes and literally everything sells. Rare stuff will always be the exceptions to the rule.- 45 replies

A little googling and maths give me this. Please correct me if I'm wrong. This is considering a semi's maximum weight on US roads is 80,000lbs CGVW Truck Weight Trailer Weight Percent of weight the truck is to the trailer 18,500 61,500 30.08% 7,000 35,000 20.00% It is about how I would expect it to be with the semi truck being a larger percentage of total weight.- 45 replies

Whatever it is that is heating the batteries, is reducing range. EV semi trucks will not be parked inside at night to keep the battery nice and toasty. Pulling the weight is rarely the issue. It's actually handling and stopping that weight and that requires a truck with mass. It absolutely cannot be a half-ton-sized truck. You just can't have a 5500lb truck pulling 35,000lbs.- 45 replies

2019 vs 2018 11,805 vs 8,276 Tiguan 7,381 vs 6,063 Atlas Those are their only two CUVs. The other two you might be eyeing aren't current models and were discontinued.

It isn't half but when reading up on EVs a 30% drop in range isn't uncommon in 30 degrees F temps.It's pretty much the norm. I have no clue what it's like when you approach zero degrees F or below.- 45 replies

And they still cannot touch the range of the Kenworth. 100-177 gallon tanks getting 5mpg(per fuelly.com) = 500-885 miles.- 45 replies
