ev cuv Camaro or Mustang EV CUV?
ccap41 replied to G. David Felt's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
Probably sitting in your EV Camaro SUV.. Hasn't Ford hinted at a Mach 1 branded EV CUV? I hate that they're using that name for a CUV and not a Mustang trim. -
Industry News: Bosch Claims A New Breakthrough Can Save Diesel
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
I don't think it is living with the past just because the fuel source is old. The technology is brand spanking new on gas and diesel. I don't think it means people are living in the past just because they want liquid fuel. Until you have an EV, you're living in the past just as much as ocn and the rest of us. More so handing big oil even more. -
CRAAAAZY how a car can look very similar and not the exact same because you change the bumpers and wheels. Does a Focus RS look exactly like a Focus SE? ? Or perhaps it looks "very similar".

I've only seen a few of the new Genesis branded vehicles in person(not sure if they were G80 or G90s) and they are damn good looking vehicles. I would absolutely drive a Genesis and feel no shame, unlike driving a Hyundai 10+ years ago.

That's a fairly attractive automobile.

Yeah, let's trust Bosch to clean up diesel... They're the ones who made whatever components for VW to "pass" emissions.

2019 Lexus ES Grows In Size, Adds F-Sport : Comments
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Lexus
I'd upvote you but I have maxed that out apparently. So, here's this: ?? -
So should be Silverados stalling out in 100 degree weather or using breaks if you turn the steering wheel all the way. Let's criticize them then for not recalling and only making TSBs for it. You can find any specific circumstance for any part failure to become an injury if you want to. Nah. You can find and post if you'd like though.
-
I never insinuated they were the top dog. Just that everybody has them so it isn't something you should hold over one company that much more than another. Not really. You said GM recalls more and Toyota avoids things like this with TSBs while GM is also using TSBs. I completely agree with everybody that they(truck tailgates) should be able to handle a substantial amount of weight but I don't think it should be a SAFETY recall.

As little as 150lbs isn't a small amount, imo. That just doesn't seem like the kind of thing for a safety recall, imo. Standing on the tailgate probably already has warnings and such saying you probably shouldn't be doing it anyway. This sounds equally as dangerous as a tailgate falling off. It's for the 2017 Silverado.

Honestly, the seat bolt potentially coming lose is more serious than anything with a tailgate. Brake like seems more serious but if you're in an accident and you get rear ended at least your seat belt is working. Recall vs TSB

Those probably don't deal with human safety, I'd assume. Something can fail on a car and them want it fixed without being a safety recall.

Yeah it definitely is not tucked in like the E and S Class' are... I like the theme. It's simple and clean to me. As long as one of the screens doesn't go out, lol. Granted, if any screen on any car goes out you're in big trouble, nobody is excluded from that group!

To me it doesn't really look like it's on that dash as much as it looks like an extended instrument cluster like a scaled down S or E Class.

I thought that was a very neat number as well.

Correct but that's anything but dirt cheap for a car that size.

2019 Lexus ES Grows In Size, Adds F-Sport : Comments
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Lexus
Wow, they have gotten similar with this new gen of Camry. -
This is floating to you? So it should be roomier than the CLA while being a tad shorter overall(assuming it is largely in part of longer wheelbase)?

I converted the length here to what's on MB's US site and our current CLA is an inch longer overall. This thing not in "L" form must be TINY!
