I don't think people are really disappointed in the XT6's looks as much as the substance. The 3 Series you commented to smk about.

Certainly not in a competing model, yet.

I think it looks good outside. I think it looks good inside. I'd drive one but the price tag is just too much for the size of vehicle(assuming, because it's a Mercedes).

Why not?

After owning an Escape and now an MKC, again, you'd be surprised how different they are. Lincolns have adaptable/customizable suspensions, the MKC has a wider track front and rear than an Escape, all double pane glass and thicker door seals to isolate outside noises, the only thing inside that represents a Ford is the window and light switch-gear.

I think you'd be surprised how different it is from a Ford.

I'm intrigued for obvious reasons, lol.

When I had my '06 C350 I asked about having the rotors turned and O'reillys said most modern rotors are made thin enough that there's no point in having them turned for $20 when new rotors are only $40 or so.

Yours are also pretty old at this point. They've changed a lot since 2006.

Brake pads don't take any special tools. I've done my own as well. I guess I should say I've done my parents' vehicles with my dad as I've never owned a vehicle long enough to have to change the brakes, lol. Pretty much nothing can be turned now. Rotors have become cheap enough and thin enough because of weight that you just replace them.

The price being the same as the 6.2 is HUGE. i think that lone will help get sales moving on this. The premium Ford and Ram charge is outrageous. I priced the cheapest F150 with their 3.0 and it's 47k. The cheapest 4WD + Super Crew cab is 53k. Insane.

7 people will be disappointed.

Jeez, Mr. ExcuseMcGee. Human error is 100% of the reason people have bad experiences at dealerships. Nobody gets angry at the part itself that fails but they get angry when the service is crap, work was done poorly, and they're charged out the @ss because they went to the dealership. Your BAD EXPERIENCE is exactly the reason people don't like going to dealerships, or any repair shops.

Remember when you said all of your experiences have been positive and then you tell us they put the wrong oil in and your vehicle sounded like crap after they put the wrong oil in it so then you had to go back and have them change it again..?

Remember waaaay back when you said this about your dealership? @ykX

Our bonuses are in December and raises used to be April but they've moved it to start at the beginning of the year(Jan 1st) so now raises/evaluations are in November/December as well. It's nice to get it at that point but it would also be nice to get a stagger between the two.

I haven't watched it yet but a good buddy of mine said almost the same exact thing.It's definitely on the to-watch list.

What's this "Oil" you speak of in comparison?

Fantastic numbers-wise or fantastic like an MX-5 or Elise? Those are two very different things.

They would not benefit form the additional hundreds of pounds of weight in batteries and motor(s).

I would have to believe the 4-banger Camaro with that Alpha chassis would do pretty damn well along with whooping it in a straight line. For $30,500 you can step the 2.0T up to the 1LE package and it would absolutely eat the BRZ's breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I don't use premium but I seek out a Top Tier station every single time. The only times I don't is if they're an unreasonable distance out of my way which I think only happened once with the Focus.

When I buy a car I know the dealerships change it so i wait until the next 5,000 mile interval and then stick to every 5,000 miles. For Example, my MKC has 37,xxx miles on it and when I hit 40,000 I'll change it and then every 5,000 from there. It's the easiest to remember and even the most basic of oils will last 5,000 miles. I've been using Pennzoil Platinum or Mobil 1. I bought a box of the "shop" Fram Ultra filters(gold can). It's a Fram Ultra but they're sold in bulk only(they're not supposed to be sold to the public but people on ebay get their hands on them). They usually sell for about $9 a piece and buying them in bulk was about $6.30, I believe.

Well, yes. My point in using the Tahoe as an example was that it is larger than a X7 but the area behind the rear seat does not look much larger, at all. The reviewer saying they can't fit two carry on bags and backpacks behind the 3rd row would also struggle behind the 3rd row of a Tahoe.
