I know I don't have some proof to back this up, but it just feels like you're using your anecdotal evidence to say that. While I don't think Toyotas are some magical world marvel that every one will last a million miles with minimal maintenance, I still find it hard to believe that they aren't in the top tier. They sell millions of vehicles every year solely based on reliability and I can't imagine they're all just getting burned on this by being completely average.

I'd agree, the whole exterior package is pretty awesome. It looks phenomenal in that profile picture.

I fckn love that blue. 0-100mph in less than four seconds is absolutely bonkers.

I have no doubts that this will continue to be an Italian unreliable POS though.. But it seems like a compelling product.

Also, that transmission that needed replacing in 2010 isn't a Corvette Transmission either. The Vette has a transaxle in the rear and your TBSS does not.

That is suuuuch a longshot to try and say it is a Corvette with an SUV body. That would imply that the frame and chassis are also Corvette, which they are not.

...a Trailblazer SS is not a Corvette with an SUV body... It's a BOF SUV with a Corvette engine.

https://www.imcdb.org/vehicles_make-Toyota_model-Land+Cruiser.html There are 145 pages at 30 results per page, 4350 movies/shows with Land Cruisers in them. Why does the origin of the vehicle matter? They're built and advertised as luxury vehicles 100% of the time since being on sale in the US. Do you have proof of the articulation of the modern coil over system? That is really the only advantage of a solid axel over independent suspension, from my knowledge. The Bronco comes REALLY close to matching a Wrangler in articulation but it still isn't the same as solid axels, strictly when you're talking about tackling off-road obstacles.

Do you frequent off road trails? You're lying to everybody here or you don't watch many/any movies. That's no different than Range Rovers, Wranglers, G Wagens, Raptors, etc. They're all used on pavement 99.9% of the time but that has no bearing on how capable they are off-road. I've never seen with my eyes somebody off-roading a G Wagen, but that doesn't mean the three lockers and solid axels don't work. And the Escalade is different from this description, how? Literally every BOF SUV fits this description.

I just can't imagine this will look all that great... I hope it does or I hope that I change my mind but this looks awkward as fck as of now.

What's overrated about a Land Cruiser? This is the first I'm hearing of it being overrated.

And the general public seems to care less about that. I feel like anytime I'm around people or hear people talking about new vehicles the old phrase of "just get a Toyota XXX, it'll last forever" comes up. They definitely still seem to have that reputation.

It sucks how late they are to the party but, this seems like a pretty awesome package. It's probably too small for me to ever consider going forward but I still like it.

Then it'll be nothing special.. They may not mention benchmarking those cars but they probably should do that as both of those SMOKE a Hellcat. So this seems like an awesome vehicle but without knowing some of the details, all I'm getting is a complete gimmick car. I know more details will follow but it would have been nice to know some performance targets, range, charging speed, hp/tq.

That's what the world needs, more Chrysler N/A 3.6L engines! ?

Nope, and this is a recent thing. It used to always be right about the rest of the area we live in, give or take $0.05-0.10. Since gas prices have been dropping, for the last month, they have just barely moved in town while all of the surrounding towns/cities have dropped significantly.

My town is weird high compared to everywhere around us. My town is 4.29/gal and I can drive 10 miles in any direction and it's like 3.89/gal for 87 octane. If I drove 30 miles into Missouri it's in the 3.49-3.79 ballpark for 87 octane.

I think I've only encountered a slow pump two or three times since I've been driving. The same station my wife had issue with, she had issues last week as well. I asked if it was the same pump and she said it's a different pump. She jokingly complained about it last week and I just assumed she was being a woman and exaggerating but when we were on the phone for 5 minutes and only pumped $6 worth of premium...that's basically a gallon of premium. 1 gallon in 5 minutes.. I also asked if she tried unclicking it and starting it over. She said she already tried that a couple times to no avail. It sure would be nice to not have to deal with that ever again. But then again, I'd deal with slow charging in public at some point, even though it would be rare for me.

So my wife was at a gas station just a few minutes ago and called me while pumping gas. The pump was pumping EXTREMELY slow but she pre-paid so she was sticking it out. We were on the phone for 5 minutes and it literally only pumped $6 worth of premium in that time span. I asked her, “you know what would fix this issue so it’ll never happen again?” Her, “no, what?” Me, “an electric car. You’d never need to pump gas again!” Her, “ugh, you and your electric cars…”

I think it looks good and all but all this is is a "hey, don't forget about me!" from Chrysler. Still three years off? Too much will change from everybody else to care about this one now. So the Hummer EV is vaporware because you don't see them on dealer lots?
-
Maybe your beef is with Dodge then, because they're the one advertising it as a track-ready car. The same can be said with Tesla and the Model S Plaid.

I just assumed that was 100% render that somebody threw together. I doubt whatever it is looks just like that.The BEV Jeep is pretty intriguing. I wonder what size they're going with for their first BEV.Those lights look fantastic! They're so white without any of the blue, which would look out of place on a car like this.
