And that's why there is a Tahoe/Expedition for you. A set of golf clubs has nothing to do with that raked look. That wouldn't change with a raked ceiling or a boxy ceiling. They either lay flat or they don't. Thanks, I thought so.

Funny enough the Edge has more space behind the third row than a Grand Cherokee, with its raked rear end. The Durango isn't mid sized.. it's a three row-er. Isn't the Durango more of an Explorer/Traverse competitor? In which I was right, a mid size isn't what the buyer is looking for i they need that extra space.

There are only two of those that have "terrible" interior space, the Jag and Acura. The other three really don't have a super raked rear end or window that's near horizontal. Also, how often is the area closest to the glass maxed out anyway? once a year?Usually stuff is kept below the rear seats meaning this raked look really doesn't negatively effect anybody.

You think this ugly Nissan will steal 200-250k reservations from Tesla? I'd enjoy some of that Kool-Aid because it's gettin you high as F. People don't jsut buy Tesla because it's EV. Tesla is a status symbol now. Ask any human on the ace of the earth if they'd prefer a Tesla or a Nissan.

Hyundai News:Hyundai Finally Gives the Green Light to A Pickup

I still don't see somebody buying a truck that much smaller than a Ranger over just a small CUV that has the same amount of space in the hatch(with the seats down probably more) as those do in their beds. There can't be too much need otherwise there would have been one out by now or some time in the last 5 years since the Ranger has been gone or the first gen Colorado.- 28 replies

I hate that with engine downsizing they felt the need to move away from that naming scheme. "small number = bad". There's nothing wrong with a GLC200 and a GLC300 then needing to be 300 and 400 for no real reason..

Hyundai News:Hyundai Finally Gives the Green Light to A Pickup
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
It just seems too small for even that task. Why would somebody buy that over a small cuv with more capability and not british reliability? The current max payload for a Mini Cooper is 895lbs - 200lbs for a driver - 150lbs passenger and/or other miscellaneous stuff and we're talking 550lbs of available payload.. Yeah, that'd work for the housewife who's into gardening and just needs to grab a bag or two of potting soil or mulch and thinks Minis are cute but that's a pretty narrow market right there. I'm not opposed to a true small truck like the previous Ranger by any means but i think something this small is useless. I think there is room in the market for a small truck but not this small. This can't be marketed to small towns or cities as a cheap, efficient, work truck like a small Ranger/S10 could.- 28 replies

Damn, I didn't realize it was that long ago.. I know the "350" Mercedes of not too long ago were still 3.5's. That's only because I had one but I wouldn't doubt if they were slowly moving away from that during that period though. In all honestly, displacement and output are basically the same thing when it comes to a badge. Higher number, more power.. I just don't like it for no good reason, really.

This... is stupid... I don't like numbers matching output. I'd prefer it match the displacement, like Benz and BMW once did.

Hyundai News:Hyundai Finally Gives the Green Light to A Pickup
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
Payload you ask? They're less than 50lbs apart(1548lbs vs 1499lbs). It's a wider, longer, and deeper bed as well. They're three tenths of an inch different in ride height but it's largest downfall is towing capability. 7000lbs vs 5000lbs (Duramax ups it to like 7600lbs). Yes, it's AWD system isn't going to be as good off road as a the 4wd system in the GMs but it will do 95% of what the Canyonado will do overall with a more livable interior and "regular" driving dynamics. Why would anybody buy that though? You can't even fit a bicycle in the "bed" with the front wheel off.- 28 replies

You're right, it does 95% of the work a Colorado/Canyon can with a much superior ride and driving dynamics(because that's what trucks do 95% of the time..driving unloaded, commuting)- 28 replies

Jeep News: Great Wall Motor Says They're Interested in Buying Jeep
ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in Jeep
I still don't understand why Chrysler wasn't turned into a Lincoln/Buick/GMC/Lexus/Acura competitor. Yeah, the 300 was a fancy Charger but that's about it.. If they didn't $h! the bed with the Dart and 200 they should have made luxury versions of both of those(I know the 200 was Chrysler but they should have done a Ford/Lincoln,Toyota/Lexus, Honda/Acura, Chevy/Buick job to it and made it a Dodge AND a luxury Chrysler). I feel like they left a lot on the table with those two cars... Could have had an SRT 200(Dodge version then a Chrysler luxury version), and obviously people wanted a compact SRT Dart and then they could have made a luxury competitor to the ILX, CLA, 2 Series. But, alas, they $h! the bed...again.- 25 replies

And then there's really only value left in Ram. Nothing else really has any true value to somebody else with what their current portfolio looks like. The brands have value but they've just let them rot away.- 25 replies

ccap41 replied to William Maley's topic in BMW
I don't see why BMW would go a different route just to go a different route for an M car just yet. This car would weigh so much more if you added batteries and more motors to the mix. It's a neat idea but I don't see it happening right away. Also, price. These things already start too close to 100k if not already over. Careful, sarcasm is "trolling" and ppl don't enjoy that. -
I'm not here to try and hurt anybody's feelings. But I didn't do anything to deserve that response from you.

I can tell nothing has changed around here. You're still a prick for no reason. @Frisky Dingo ^ This is a big reason to not hang out here.

No, It's because you guys get so fckn bent out of shape about everything. Loses fun when ppl are overly serious on a forum. What "basics about engine output" did I not understand?

I've never brought politics into a thread what wasn't about politics because politics fckn suck ass. Name a politician who isn't corrupt and I have a bridge made of hot dogs to sell you.

It'll be difficult when you get posts like this in a thread which has nothing political about it. " "
