  1. First glance instantly reminded me of the Lexus "predator" fascia like @smk4565 said. But why the n/a 2.5???? If this is a JGC and Edge competitor it's way behind on the engine lineup.
  2. Correct. Consumers absorb the price increase.
  3. I believe the goal is just a level playing field as we pay waaaay more in tariffs that others pay to sell their stuff here.
  4. That's where I figured the loophole was... Globally they've had a diesel option in every car, I'm assuming. I have a feeling they know their past products a little better than we do.
  5. They could get the power numbers they need with the 2.0 but it would be a dog on fuel to the point it isn't even worth it.
  6. Yeah if i lived somewhere different and used the extra goodies, I would definitely want that. ORRRRR I'd still want the more "road-ready" JGC and try and invest in a Wrangler as a toy anyway... ??‍♂️
  7. See, with a JGC I would prefer to just have the street tires and Overland package because it would be capable enough for me as a JGC with 4WD. I don't need whatever makes it a Trailhawk and I'd rather it just look classy rather than "cool"(if that's the right terminology).
  8. I think it's more cool than poser. I mean it really can do some off road stuff, right? I think the Renegade Trailhawk is poser but not the JGC.
  9. It's a much larger vehicle so it has a chance to sell at a premium over a GLS.
  10. All of this China talk got me thinking.. What's gas cost in China? when converted to US Dollars and US gallons it appears they've been between $4.10-$4.40/gallon in 2018
  11. Weird that you had to order a 2.0T CT6. There actually happened to be one in the parking garage at work one day, it had the 2.0T badge on it.
  12. All of that and you don't even say the name of the car you drove?!? VERY good review though. I always enjoy your thorough reviews.
  13. Sales still don't necessarily mean better car...
  14. Why not start it at like 90-95k? I mean at this size we're talking ultra premium type of vehicles so they shouldn't cheapen out anywhere on a vehicle like that.
  15. You completely blew past the word "CARS" and assumed everything small is a "car".
  16. How did none of this get leaked?!?
  17. Less people WANT cars smaller than mid-size. Almost anybody buying that small is doing so because they don't have money for something larger.
  18. I don't know what the S Class Coupe is selling like but I have to believe they see some sales there and have potential to get some of their own.
  19. Do they really care about an extra inch or two of interior space for the back when losing 2-3mpg? Even 1mpg when you drive for a living adds up. I'm not saying it won't happen but I feel like it is less likely for the shift in this market. Buuuuut most driver's are part-time and just use their own vehicle and if they already made the choice for a CUV then that is what it is. I think if they are driving a CUV it is because that's what they want for their personal vehicle and not for the driver service job.
  20. This is one market I would think stays wit cars because the marginal gain in fuel economy is worth it to the personal owner/driver. Regardless, I will be calling a ride service and I wouldn't care what I'm getting picked up in. It is what it is(the vehicle).
  21. I was literally scrolling down to type that and saw your comment. ????
  22. I thought I would have been the only one...
  23. I'm not trying to be a dick, just pointing out some things you'd probably prefer to change with your name on it.
  24. That's a pretty car.
