  1. ..what..? There's less interior volume in the new Blazer than the Equinox????
  2. How is there not a post reporting on the new Lincoln Aviator??? 400hp/ 400tq plus a plug-in version promising at least 30 miles of range(which gets you 450hp and 600tq).
  3. I think everybody I know has used Uber and/or Lyft and they're a great service and I think they keep A LOT of drunk drivers off the roads daily. I know that's why all my friends and I use them. Absolutely. People coming out of college with 100k in debt.. Then trying to add a 40k car payment.. I think the Wrangler can still be had in a very base trim without A/C and stuff.
  4. Oh dang, the plant is only about 2hrs from me. https://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20180518/ISSUE01/180519884/rivian-ceo-scaringe-plans-to-build-electric-cars-in-normal He's also super young.. 35 years old.
  5. Hmmmm I am still not a fan of the headlights and forward. I like the boxy look but it doesn't come off as a full-size SUV. The guy standing there has his head at least halfway over the vehicle. His eyes can look clear over it and I doubt he is 7ft tall.
  6. I just don't like that there is always a second or two delay after you hit the button to talk, then you tell it something, then another second or two delay. That is really inconvenient when you're having a conversation with a passenger.
  7. I would not be a fan of voice activated controls. I only use that for short, quick texts and occasionally to set a destination on my maps but I would not like voice activated HVAC and radio controls.
  8. I know Tesla has gotten a lot of flack for not having physical buttons in the center console area so what're your thoughts on a very similar idea here? Personally, I would prefer a few knobs. I would like temp and radio knobs for sure and probably a couple for each of those as well. Thinking about it more, maybe just a volume knob and a temperature knob for each passenger. Maybe just 3 knobs would get the job done. Location of the air and radio station could be on the screen.
  9. I'm still really curious about this. I can't imagine it being large enough for a real surf board. It just doesn't look that large of an opening but I absolutely love that they're utilizing that space. That and the frunk are two huge reason EVs should take off eventually. Once automakers learn how to really package them better I think that should be a huge advertising point.
  10. I had to look more into it as well but here's a video of it. It seems pretty real. https://vimeo.com/301410788 I also found the cup holders in the video.
  11. This is still a concept.. I think saying this isn't a crap product should hold off until there is at least a rolling product with doors and a cup holder.
  12. Super smart people don't necessarily make the best business people.. Just sayin' education doesn't equate to a successful company.
  13. Well if you're taking this picture that serious, the headrest is almost touching the roof so you're screwed. Maybe you don't know how the word "fact" works but that is the complete opposite when you don't have any hard numbers or anything provable. I can't imagine this being any roomier than a half ton truck from the D3. Look at how narrow the center arm rest is.. It's absolutely smaller than a Silverado, Ram, or F150.
  14. You can tell absolutely nothing from that picture of how roomy it actually is.. But it is an EV so I would only expect you to assume it's God-like.
  15. I've never really understood the issue with that.. Even non-boosted cars, if you're putting your foot into it you get bad fuel economy.
  16. No state inspection here either and my oil change will be about $30 and that's actually probably what I'll do on Thanksgiving because we'll have a nice weather day, about 55 degrees. What do you mean when you say "big filter"? Do you use another filter with the same threads and gasket that's just larger? If so, why?
