Industry News: Trump Threatens Mexico with Auto Tariffs
ccap41 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Industry News
I already answered this. I'm not going to just repeat the same thing over and over and over and over again. I asked a question because you called them out for knowingly making a faulty system. I said I won't accept that they made this faulty on purpose until it has been proven factual. News flash, same thing happens in the car industry. The EPA doesn't test every single new vehicle. -
Industry News: Trump Threatens Mexico with Auto Tariffs

I know exactly what you're talking about @dfelt, I'm currently in a business ethics class where we've gone into detail about the Ford Pinto. I still cannot and will not believe until it is fact that they knowingly engineered it to have such a fatal error. Ain't nobody got time to respond to paragraphs written like that. -

I cannot imagine an engineer KNOWINGLY allowed such a fatal error. They would know there would be deaths on their hands. -

Do you know this as fact or are you assuming? If they knowingly did this, they are in some deep sh!t. -

I think some are forgetting what vehicles GM actually produces in Mexico. https://www.motortrend.com/news/30-cars-affected-trump-close-border-mexico/ -
Yeah, I assume it would get a similar upgrade as the PP or PP2 got, like the 1LE Camaros.
-
Not necessarily. It isn't like the 2.3 is currently well known for being able to throw massive power at it now even in its 350hp version.
-
Hmmmm I would certainly hope they beef up the internals so it could handle a ton of hp with a stock block/crank/pistons.

Interior of Mercedes-Benz GLB Concept Rendered :Comments
ccap41 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Auto Shanghai
Does that mean people are tiring of Cadillac, too? Every one of their vehicles was down. -
Decent numbers overall.
-
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. -

ccap41 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Industry News
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
