    These are equally similar to each other as the Mercedes, BMW, and Audi lineups..

    We got about 10-12 last weekend and we're supposed to get a few more this weekend. I think it's estimated around 4-8 inches.. but with ice to start.. I think all of last year/season we got under 8 inches. Usually we get more than that. I think last year was either a record low for a season or very close to a record for STL.

    Plus, aren't all of these electronically limited in the first 2 gears so you don't get all 900-1000 torques anyway?

    They could just update them to get at least modern efficiency out of them. Is that a lot to ask for? The Silverado and F150 smoke the 5.7 in performance and they're the same or better in fuel economy ratings(with the 6.2 and 3.5EB). I bet if they did this people wouldn't really bat an eye and they'd love it. I don't really understand the fascination with straight 6's but it seems like people love them for some reason.

    No, but those high hp versions are only in SRT vehicles. Also, this is a 6.4 putting out 410hp, fwiw. I also don't think the phrase, "The Hemi is capable of delivering more HP than any other street engine out there" is accurate.. It isn't like the 840hp engine is just the 375hp engine with a supercharger with zero modifications done to it. They build it as necessary, as would any other company. Just in the same way GM didn't just put a massive blower on the 6.2 to make 755hp. They built the engine knowing it will be 755hp with the necessary components. But yes, these are dated int he sense that they aren't the most powerful(the ones not in SRTs) and they aren't efficient. They're a mix of "okay".

    This will be a very good car. I have no doubt in that. I just doubt it will be 50k good.

    There's no vehicle they offer that has 5 HEMI options.

    There still won't be a road legal version of the Rivian on the road in 12 months.. is my prediction.

    Until these EV startup companies have something to sell and they pass safety requirements they're completely insignificant to me. All fluff no substance yet.

    This looks pretty dang sharp. I dig it.
  11. ccap41
    Absolutely.
  12. ccap41
    The Rivian will be a joke next to a Power Wagon.
  13. ccap41
    I don't see how that looks dated at all. And nothing like a Buick. Yes.

    No, Toyota got the brand new Z4's bones

    Nobody uses crappy Android phones anyway..

    It isn't the torque number itself, it's how high in the RPM range it is.
  18. ccap41
    100% agree.
  19. ccap41
    Hmmm.. I'd prefer plug-in but I'm not realistically in the market for one of these anyway.
  20. ccap41
    Yes, please. Although, if I'm being honest, I'd prefer the 2 row Edge ST over this. I like the RWD proportions and, assuming, dynamics but I don't drive aggressive often enough to take advantage of that in an SUV. So is this hybrid a plug-in? I didn't see anything about range..
  21. ccap41
    The numbers are going to be pretty nuts with this but the nose isn't the prettiest. I don't think it's ugly but I'm not "Wowed" by the nose or spoiler. 7spd DCT is interesting.. Very interesting.. I would as well. My skill level isn't high enough to be able to control another 200hp and I just can't get enough of the 5.2 flat plane crank's noises. I'll gladly take the "slower" of the two.
  22. ccap41
    What @dfelt said. I assume DOHC has emissions advantages as everybody has moved to them awhile ago. This is why I'm surprised they didn't use some other engine or have a second optional engine with more torque for the larger vehicle that this is.
  23. ccap41
    It's going to be tough to get more test miles in when they're canceling it.. Yeah, a base 3.6 would be fine but something more powerful as an option, with all the GM's available engines, should have been an obvious decision.
  24. ccap41
    You don't need to be an enthusiast to test drive two vehicles and one has torque and one doesn't.
  25. ccap41
    This is nice and disappointing.. Same lame V6 rated the same as their chevy counterpart and no showing off of their tech with Super Cruise.
