  1. We have another year yet... I think it's supposed to be offered as a 2020 model year.
  2. Yeah that's quite often as well.. Makes sense why you'd want the extra space.
  3. Yeah, that's understandable, that's a pretty long drive to be in there. They look pretty roomy but I've never been in the back of one. How often are you driving them that long?
  4. I've always wondered this.. How much savings is there really when you have turbos/heat exchanger/plumbing all added to the turbo 4? By chance, do you have any examples or engine weights with the turbo+components compared to their replaced V6?
  5. I don't get it..
  6. How do the Taco/Canyonado not do that in crew cab 6ft bed form?
  7. It's just ironic that he has a Suburban and Trailblazer SS... Just say'n... I also think an Escalade..
  8. I believe both Toyota and Honda have production cars out in California. I'm still a firm believer that eventually, when the process gets much more efficient and cheaper, that it will be the real way of the future. I think it's dimensional-ly because CAFE has to do with it's footprint and fuel economy. That's why the F150 is as wide as it can be without putting the marker lights on it like the HD/SDs have on the cab(and Raptor in the grille).
  9. That's a 3-row SUV and is 5.5 inches longer. After looking them up... It seems to split the Explorer and Edge almost perfectly. Edge: 188.1in Acadia: 193.6in Explorer: 198.3
  10. It surprises me they are getting rid of the Sonic and not the smaller Spark. I was looking at the Sonic RS before I bought my Focus and I just couldn't get over the size of the car. I'm all for smaller vehicles(I drive a Focus!) but it's just too small for me. They'd be perfect for a new driver though. I would definitely look at one if I was buying one for a high school kid.
  11. I'll take one of those 114. That car is beautiful.
  12. Just group everything together, who gives a fck?
  13. I saw that as well. It's so close to being awesome but the cab and bed just look TOO different. It looks like 2 completely different generations(because they are) but there's no effort to blend them.
  14. Hella good month for GM. FCA blew ass if they didn't have Jeep to save them.. But Ram will come back as their new truck rolls out.
  15. They also do some trick things these days with active grill shudders, super low air dams, tiny spoilers(look at the shapes of the tailgates) to get air off of the vehicle more smoothly.
  16. I mean they kind of did.. They made a 2/3 heavy duty with a 5.0 Cummins.
  17. It'd be nice but reduced drag of the current body styles make that a difficult thing to hope for..
  18. I bet there is actually quite a bit of tuning that goes into it because the new 2.0T doesn't have the same exact outputs and outputs at a given rpm. I'm not doubting they will do a fine job, just saying it's a new combo that nobody has driven yet.
  19. It would definitely be a Lincoln or Cadillac followed by the Asian brands. German engineers just to everything so different it is more difficult to do regular/simple stuff on our own.
  20. I'd assume you're correct but those are just guesses at this point as we're talking transmissions now and nobody has driven this XT4 matched to the brand new engine.
  21. With a post-purchase modification. From GM or not. That's like saying the EcoBoost Mustangs are 335hp and 390 lb-ft with the Ford Performance tune for only $699. Depending what you want to believe from Ford... They're still only FWD, right? They already probably have some trick system to get power down but upping that more they're going to have to re-configure that out too.
  22. CLA45? 355hp/332 lb-ft. Everything else you said is probably spot on but there is no simpler engines being made anymore. Everything is more and more complex.. you even mentioned the ability to run on 2cyl..lol
  23. I think it's been a few years at this point too. They just haven't changed anything in a long time. Even their fun/toy cars are pretty "meh".
