  1. Ahhhh Makes sense. Thanks!
  2. I thought it said Ram posted its best October ever..but it's down on the month?
  3. I'm surprised to see the Trax, a CUV, down... especially because of the refresh last year(?)
  4. Theoretically Ford has a couple of 4 bangers that could be dropped right in and they'd perform just fine but I bet they'd still be taxed and get poor economy because you'd need boost to move a 5000-5500lb vehicle shaped like a brick. While in theory a turbo 4 putting out 300-350hp and 300-350tq would be great they need to do something to actually make them more efficient when under light throttle acceleration.
  5. As long as you're okay going slow Still looks like a Wrangler. They did good.
  6. New 27k : VW GTI Sport(Sport package includes: +10hp, VAG differential, upgraded brakes) Autotrader GTI Sport NEW 34k : Tacoma TRD Off-Road Autotrader Tacoma TRD Off-Road I think I'd want the TRD to be a stick.. or the GTI.. I'm not sure which one but one of them would be a 6spd.
  7. @ykX damn, throwing another bone in the mix with a new Mustang GT.. I actually don't really care for the refinement as much because this is definitely a vehicle I'd only put a few thousand miles a year on but the newer Mustang will be better in probably every way. @dfelt (not sure why it won't let me actually tag you) I really like the Trailhawk choice! I thought about the Charger SRT's as well but I'm not a an of that older body style. The new ones do it for me so much more.
  8. I'm still not sure what my toy vehicle would be.. I'm caught between the Boss, C5Z, or a C6. I think I'd want something more special than a standard C6 though. The more I think about it the more I think I'd do with an F150 for this price. I really like the ZR2(can't find for this price though) and TRD Pro(also can't find in this price but I could easily find a TRD Off-Road) but I just don't love the powertrains as much.
  9. Used 27k : I'm leaning towards a used Boss 302 or C5Z. Used 34k : I'm still not dead set on anything but I think I'd look for a 2016+ F150 so I can still have Sync 3. I'm just not sure if I'd want to drive a truck all the time or not. I think I'd enjoy it at first but later get tired of the size. Maybe... TRD Pro or ZR2 actually. I think the size would fit me better.
  10. Im thinking about the JGC as well.. not sure if that or maybe an Edge Sport for used 27k.
  11. They left the US because they were shet and people stopped buying them... because they were shet.
  12. This is taking some serious thinking as that 34k spot is a lot for a used vehicle.
  13. Ahhhh I just find it a little ironic that one would rip Tesla and all of the EVs for being junk yet... they purchased a FIAT owned vehicle.. FIAT!!
  14. I know, real exciting price range, right?!? Well, it came up in the Kia thread and it got me thinking what would I buy for 27k and 34k(because that's a very realistic price range for my next vehicle)? First I thought new then used.. Simple rules.. 4 total vehicles Two 27k vehicles New Used Two 34k vehicles New Used
  15. Do you think Ford, GM, and Ram didn't consider this years ago and probably do market research every couple of years to see if there is demand for them? It's hard to believe they don't continually consider this as they make so much off of them. Yeah, they might sell, but maybe not well enough to justify all of the hassle and approvals to sell them there. But no, if the mid-sizers are as capable as they are right now there't not enough benefit to selling the big guys over there. Look at what's on most of their roads now, smaller vehicles. Do you think they just all of a sudden want huge-ass trucks the size of their roads? Maybe after the Titan goes there it will spark a bigger interest and they'll sell but to sell in China it seems like they'll need some form of hybrid system within a few years.
  16. *hates Tesla* *Buys FIAT stuff* (Not to you Drew but quoted because..easy..) We shouldn't be surprised that a Fiat owned/operated site isn't helpful.
  17. Especially with the capabilities of a modern mid-sizer. I mean the diesel Colorado can tow 7600lbs and 1550 in the bed(or something similar if I remembered incorrectly). That is full size numbers from only 15 years ago. So they're plenty capable. Heck, they're even similar sizes to the half tons 15 years ago as well.
  18. Switch that out with Italian compact/import and you have the Compass lol So they offer a CVT piece of $h! in the base trim, FWD only, then the 9spd in the rest of the lineup, and lastly, the 6 spd manual? Why the F does this need 3 transmissions?
  19. I don't mind #1 at all. Sounds like it benefits both parties. I'm only on the desktop version at work so ads are whatever to me. Honestly, do what you need to do here. As long as I don't get pop-ups, we're good!
  20. That isn't very accurate... They also form a lot of BS.
  21. Oh definitely... Then they'd price it too high for the hatcback market anyway.. But I'd freakin love an M version of a hot hatch(or an AMG). I'd prefer rear or all wheel drive but even if they made it front wheel drive, I feel like M and AMG cars aren't half-assed and it would still be a great FWD car. A45. I want an A45.
  22. That's all i want from BMW... a hatch and then an M version of said hatch.
  23. X1 is a GLA competitor and X3 is a GLC competitor.
  24. No clue about the latter but I know MB, Audi and Land Rover have been using a similar setup for awhile as well. Not sure when they started but I'd guess it was around that 2012 date as well. Ever use one? They're weird as hell. I'm not much of a fan of them.
