For the most common places, I hate it and would go elsewhere. For places that I know will be very pricey and things are typically "market price", I expect it.

It's a GM car made with Chinese parts, those parts are probably already broken and ready to fall off. 🤣 I joke I joke What portion is it supposed to be in?

Where can this be found? I have my window sticker but I don't see a breakdown on it. Also, what about the other 14%? Lincoln Navigator Window Sticker.pdf

Of all industries to kill, the auto industry isn't one of them. There are only a handful of autos built in China, right? Nautilus, Envision, and probably something else.

I believe the orange pieces are indications of high voltage cables, so beware of them. Haha

It wasn't coming to the US prior to Trump even being in office, let alone any tariff talk. https://electrek.co/2025/01/31/kia-ev5-sadly-not-coming-to-us-but-will-arrive-next-door/

Oh man. It happens to the best of us. We always try and work with what we have because we just don't want to make the trip out when you're in the middle of something. Well, glad you got it back together! Also, 109k miles on that thing?!? That sounds insane for most bikes. I'm sure there are cruisers out there with 100-200k miles on them, but it just sounds like so much for a bike.

Don't Ford and GM already have factories in those countries, partially, for that reason though? We both know Ford and GM have factories in China already. I'm sure almost all of those vehicles stay domestic to China, and they'd be avoiding and tariff situation. I can't imagine China is importing any Ford or GM vehicle that's built in the US. I think anybody with a REAL brain knew there would be a big spike up front followed by no real truck buyers wanting one of those things. Putting the hatred for Elon aside, they're just not good enough TRUCKS. No truck buyer wants something like that.

There's actually an M8 coupe and M8 Gran Coupe in our parking garage at work. The coupe looks much better, imo.

They don't make anything worth buying anyway.

The M8 is a pretty dang good looking car, too, though. Cadillac doesn't have a full size coupe like this Genesis or the M8. They don't even make the CT4-V Blackwing Coupe.

Hot Daaaamn! These look beautiful. We can only hope they actually build these. We all know the take rate would be insanely low, but I feel like it would be great for the brand's image and hopefully sell other models.

That sounds like such an expensive trailer configuration, a trailer with massive batteries and motor(s).. That is no better than an HD with their diesel setups now. While the idea seems good, the price of something like that just sounds like looking for a problem to solve instead of the current setup. At this point, we'd be talking about a 10,000lb truck and an empty trailer weighing 7,000lbs. That's pushing the better part of 20,000lb before even adding anything to the trailer. A basic single car trailer is already close to 2500lb.

I feel like I heard your first sentence somewhere else.... Hahaha I think it's all of the addicts. That seems to be the beverage of choice for those people who think they're drinking "healthy" but are always out of shape and overweight. I'm sure you know a person or two who's only drink they'll consume is Diet Coke. It's such a terrible beverage, too.

Yeah, and as you kind of circled back in your own comment, 600 miles of range just isn't needed. People aren't driving that far without a bathroom, food, or stretching their legs break anyway. 600 miles at 70mph is 8.5 hours of straight driving. Just make the batteries smaller and lighter(therefore more efficient) and 400 miles is plenty for 99% of the population 99% of the time. When that 400 miles is recouped in under 10 minutes, everybody will be happy. It's just wasteful to make a 600 mile range battery for a vehicle.

I know there aren't any details on the range or capacity of the other battery packs, but this REALLY intrigues me. I'm sure the standard range would be less than I'd like, but 440mi seems excessive so the middle battery would likely be perfect.

Even people who like to road trip spend the majority of their time not road tripping. There's really no point in a 600 mile range EV unless batteries become SOOOOOO much lighter where 100kw batteries only weights a few more pounds than a 75kw battery and there's really no "extra weight" to be carried around, wasting efficiency.

Yeah, the class just isn't what it used to be. I used to LOVE a giant sedan. While they do all still have that large car presence on the road, I just can't get over the overly touchscreen and electronic interiors. They just don't so what they used to for me. There's an A8L in our parking garage that is still pretty awesome. It isn't brand new, probably the previous gen..?maybe..? I think I just liked all of them more in their previous generations. This was my first thought on the topic, as well. I know I don't know about our infrastructure like you do, but I know 1000kWh charging isn't something that'll be done here anytime soon anyway. It's awesome that it has the ability to do that, but there won't be anywhere that this can take place anyway so it's kind of a moot point.

Thank you, much appreciated. Apparently, because I don't agree with somebody, I'm now a bully. I don't think he understands what the word "bully" means. If he does, he may not remember his own actions of "downvoting" others to get under their skin. …that sounds like the actions of a bully more so than disagreeing with an opinion...

If you're referring to me. Just say so.

I love me a long wheelbase large sedan. They just have a really cool presence when walking around them. I disagree with it being lazy. There are a lot of people who actually want an all black interior. I'm not one of them, but I know people who do. I'd agree if it was the ONLY choice available, but as long as there are multiple choices, making an all black one doesn't come off as lazy to me. This is a specific Black Edition, so it also seems to make sense here.

Talking, in general, about politics is not taboo. Talking politics where politics are not wanting to be talked about, is taboo. Nobody is going to specific group pages (Corvette, Mustang, Dallas Cowboys, Montreal Canadians, Dale Earnhardt Jr) groups and wanting to talk politics. Go to political pages that are dedicated to talking that stuff. There are sooooo many pages/sites available if you want to talk politics. Talk politics with people who want to talk politics. That seems fair, right? Personally, I don't want to be talking about the new Silverado EV's multiple trims and battery sizes and have somebody cram some political garbage into the comment section.

Yeah, there really just isn't a need for that kind of infrastructure somewhere where the vehicle is going to be parked for 20 minutes minimum regardless. Next to a highway where people aren't trying to waste any time? Perfect.

I'm not finding the same information you're telling me. Model Y starts "around" 46k. GV60 does start at $52,350. If you're talking only about the Launch Series, which we all know there will be more trims available once the old inventory is moved, that starts at 60k, that's quite misleading. We all know it will be priced similarly to the previous gen Model Y. It'll likely be priced a little higher, everything seems to do that, but it won't be 15k more than the previous gen Model Y. Realistically, a Model Y will still be cheaper than an RX350 or X3 that start at 50k.
