  1. This just looks so much worse than what they currently have... I've already seen a photoshop job where they used body color for the black grille area and it looks much better. The bow tie on the bumper instead of the grille looks turrible.
  2. 2019 Camaro refresh is out and it looks worse, imo.
  3. Motorcycles are a wonderful thing. It might sound cliche but there is no other feeling of freedom than when you're just riding along on a motorcycle out on some open roads.
  4. Luckily there's an easy fix.. Don't buy a Malibu with the 1.5 next time. Also, make sure you take it for a good test drive because that also would have prevented this.
  5. The CVT thing is a little confusing to me as they already have development costs wrapped up into a 9spd.
  6. Naked sport bikes are the sweet spot in the motorcycle world. I absolutely LOVE them. There are so many of them now too. It used to just be a Ducati Monster or a Triumph Speed Triple. Not each brand has at least 1 or 2 and Ducati's entire lineup is naked sport bikes! Depends. Some people, like myself, feel more at home on a bike like that. I feel completely out of control on a typical cruiser with my feet out front. I'm also shorter to my on a crotch rocket isn't all cramped up like you would be on the same bike. The sweet spot, imo, is the naked sport bikes. They have actual handle bars and no clip ons and you sit up a little higher and they usually have foot controls a little lower as well so your legs are stretched out a little more as well.
  7. Nine R T? Or something along those lines? I love it. I finally convinced my dad to buy a BMW. He's wanted one all his life and last year he was just throwing the idea of a new bike(he had been on a Honda ST1300 since 05) and I said what about the BMW you've always wanted. Without even looking he said it cost too much blah blah blah.. I just grabbed my phone and checked some prices real quick and showed him and it peaked his interest like "No way? That's not out of reason at all". I told him to just finall buy exactly what you want because if you don't, you'll still always say "I want a BMW motorcycle some day". Two or three weeks later he test drove one and a week after he picked up his BMW F800 GT. It isn't the prettiest thing to me but he loves it. I think he puts around 5000 miles a year on his bikes as he commutes on it in the summer(only a 6 mile round trip to work). His doesn't have the center bag, yet. I'm sure he will eventually get one if my mom wants to ride on the back again.
  8. WEEEEEAAAKKK!!! They're built to ride not trailer! lol What kind of bike do you have anyway?
  9. Volt powertrain should be in like 5 vehicles at this point. I hated the first gen too though.. just something about it. Actually, exactly what Drew said about it is why.
  10. Sadly, I think that's just a sign of the times now... Modern crash standards and styling leave massive blind spots and sadly(again) blind spot monitors or the little extra angled mirrors within the mirror are almost necessary. My escape had a terrible blind spot because the size of the tiny furthest window and most of the CUVs are like that.
  11. Yeah, that's a significant amount of weight. Thanks!
  12. CT6. Just carry the family in class. Find a used one for like 35-45k... Don't worry about the motorcycle just drive it everywhere lol CT6 V6 AWD CT6 3.0TT AWD
  13. I've always had a hate boner for it as well.. Something about it just doesn't look near as good as any of its competitors and comes off as bland and boring with one lone engine choice, at least the first and a half gen. Now it has a turbo 4 as a base, right?
  14. No, it works AMAZINGLY! I'd VERY highly recommend doing it to your windshield. In light rain I don't use my wipers and some times in the morning after it rains I like to see at what speed does all of the rain come off my of windshield.. around 40-45 if you're wondering lol. Once a week?!?!? I only feel like I need to once a year.. and once I apply it I usually just buy the additive for my washer fluid and that works plenty well.
  15. I haven't read through the whole thread yet but I believe they were created for a sporty and young persons car. this was supposed to be their "youth" brand with the quirky xB and xA that were supposedly very customize-able from the factory. I think it is more about the automatic adjusting to the amount of rain falling rather than initially turning them on that makes them nice. Rain slows down, they slow down, rain picks up for 45 seconds, they pick up for 45 seconds...etc. Personally, I could care less about them.
  16. We have another year yet... I think it's supposed to be offered as a 2020 model year.
  17. Yeah that's quite often as well.. Makes sense why you'd want the extra space.
  18. 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?
  19. 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?
  20. I don't get it..
  21. How do the Taco/Canyonado not do that in crew cab 6ft bed form?
  22. It's just ironic that he has a Suburban and Trailblazer SS... Just say'n... I also think an Escalade..
  23. 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).
  24. 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
