    phones

    So much YES here. They do what you ask of them and they do them 99% of the time(I'll give it they aren't perfect but they seem much more reliable than any of my friends/family members Android or Google-based products. The only real issue I ever had was my battery went to crap twice. Once it was replaced the phone was like it was brand new again. Some apps would take a couple extra seconds to open but it was a 4 year old phone at that point and new/updated apps just take more hardware to keep up, I get that. This is why I couldn't justify getting a new phone for 4 years. Once it started to go a 3rd time(battery) I finally called it quits as I also just plain wanted something new again. If I'm being honest, it's more the latter. I'm not a huge picture-taker but I did want a better camera at this point as well as the 4 year old phone just didn't take the best pictures unless I was close and in good lighting.

    phones

    My XR's battery is phenomenal. I use my phone a ton and watch Netflilx/Hulu to and from work and play games and stuff and it'll last 26-28 hours(obviously some of that is sleeping). Does your partner get that kind of time out of theirs as well? From my experience, they are all the same price(Apple controls that, I believe) but different places offer gift cards larger or smaller. I actually bought my XR on Black Friday and got a $300 Wal*Mart gift card.

    phones

    My first smartphone was an iPhone 4s and I've stuck with them ever since(iPhone 6 and recently bought a iPhone XR). I like the simplicity, simple to use functions about it. I also REALLY like that Apple doesn't allow carriers to add their bullsht to the phones so they only get cluttered with stuff YOU want on the phone. Yeah, they're less customizable than an Android-based phone but I think that helps them run better for longer. I haven't heard of a single person with an Android-based phone maintaining its capabilities for even the full 2 years of most contracts. Their updates are also all over the place. Depending on what phone you have depends when you'll get the latest software update whereas all iPhones get them at the same time. I took my 6 to a Batteries + Bulbs store and they changed mine twice for $50. The second time they did it for free because it was their battery even though it was past warranty(I didn't ask for it to be covered, they just noticed it was theirs and didn't charge me - Very thankful!)
  4. Hmmm intriguing. Still under 40k to start.

  6. The Model 3 was unveiled March 2016. The first deliveries were July 2017. Ford is even worse with their whole GT500, Ranger, and Bronco situations. The C8 has been spotted testing in September 2018 and it supposedly a 2020?
  7. 2000: Cobra R 2010 458 Italia 2020: Bronco 2030: I'm probably a parent trying to be practical or some crap, Range Rover Sport SVR 2040: Midlife crisis, 720S.
  8. Hahaha YUP! What's also funny is when I first saw this the first increment I thought of was 1990 as well..
  9. I can't maths. ?
  10. Oh definitely. I would have liked to have gone to mine but I had to leave for Iowa for the weekend.. STL's is usually pretty weak anyway but it's still nice to see MOST of the new stuff.
  11. Isn't this on dealer lots already? He might be able to go to his local dealership.
  12. I'm usually a huge fan of Mercedes styling but the grille on this isn't my jam. It isn't awful but it isn't what I'd prefer.
  13. I'm usually a huge fam of Mercedes styling but the grille on this isn't my jam. It isn't awful but it isn't what I'd prefer. Oops, wrong thread but this also isn't as pretty to me as the pre-refresh GLC.
  14. I agree but in my Focus/Escape experience they are still different sizes. The hatch opening alone makes my hatch less usable than the Escape. I was disappointed in the size of the opening of the Focus hatch opening. I'm sure it is improved on all of the newer hatches though as this' roots are from 2011 or 2012.
  15. Hatchbacks are where it's at if you're buying a car.
  16. This is tough. I don't know what all got canceled outside of some Ford cars that aren't dream-worthy.
  17. Consumers.
  18. There are always people looking for the new and different thing just to be different and as long as they make a good, quality product they will sell and word of mouth should get more sales from there. This is all relying on them making a good quality product. It won't hurt us to have more options so I don't see the issue.
  19. Holy sh!t.. I didn't realize the 2.7 was in the Highlander and it starts at 31k. That's nuts. 45k for an AWD RS 42k for a FWD RS 42k for an ST Edge(standard AWD), FWIW.
  20. Clothes.. They just look different.
  21. But it is just one vehicle with different clothes on it.. What does one offer that the other two don't? Premium leather on the Caddy? They didn't give the Caddy's Super Cruise, like they should have.
  22. What kind of claim is this? How did you come to this conclusion?
  23. The cheapest Pilot that gets a V6(standard equipment) and AWD is $33,350. At Chevy to the cheapest V6 with AWD costs you $37,195.
