August 2019: Toyota North America
surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
Those being limited trim models are irrelevant. They were all part of the same craze of getting the biggest gas hogging SUV out there until gas went through the roof. Just a different breed of lemmings IMO. -
August 2019: Toyota North America
surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
I think it’s only fair to point out that those SUVs you mention were part of the lemming herd 10-15 years ago (the everything SUV craze). Just sayin’. And I would still take it over any SUV or wannabe SUV out there today. Absolutely bulletproof. Which falls in line with the competition while managing to outsell said competition. I get the hate for it but clearly Toyota is doing something right here. -

It is simply astounding that the RAV4 is putting out full size pick up type numbers. -
Probably you. ? Now show me any part of what I said that wasn’t the truth. At least I try to troll with facts.

So much talk about electrics on a "random thoughts" thread. Shhhh...better be careful folks.?

Sales: Sales Figure Ticker: August 2019
surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Sales Figure Ticker
"Business is booming over at Mercedes". -Lost billions recently -Cutting models -Still down for the year -One really good month (only when compared to the crap month a year ago) Maybe that good month is because of firesafe lease offers like these. https://www.mbusa.com/en/special-offers Naaaaah. Couldn't be that. Maybe this is proof that there are semi-professional fluffers out there for Mercedes. There is a certain irony brining up Q50s as rental cars when... -
I understand and can relate to that 100%.

Have you ever heard the expression "time is money". I believe that is what Drew is getting at while you accuse him of being "grumpy". Edit: Disregard as I just saw that Drew covered the "time is money" aspect. Carry on lol.

So I’ll reference my first post then lol. “I’m sure those three future owners of them will be very happy...for the first 50,000 miles anyway.“
-
The price will definitely be a problem (as well as being four door only) and I think it’s abilities are being a bit overstated. Most of them never see anything even resembling a rock. They’ve just become status symbols for folks who like to pretend that they are rugged or “outdoor adventurers”. There are exceptions out there, of course, but overall it’s the truth IMO.

Mercedez Benz News Mercedes-AMG Unveils the AMG GLB 35
surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Mercedes-Benz
As boring as the XT6 is, it will sell plenty to the masses who don’t give a squat about 500HP “hot hatches”. These are family CUVs and family sells better than niche. These are screenshots from June sales (done that months because of quarterly reporting by GM). You know what I see? Down numbers on both GM CUVs and Benz yet funny that you only point out the XT5 being down. This hard trolling even by your “standards”.- 57 replies

And? That doesn’t mean they sell. That just means it is a fad more than anything else. Still looking for any sales figures regarding these “hot hatches”.- 57 replies

Kind of what I’m getting at. Regardless of how many different makes there are out there currently, they are all niche at best.- 57 replies

Just “NO” to this photoshop fail. The front and back should be burned with napalm.

Jeep News: 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Interior Leaks Out
surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Jeep
I realize that’s a grainy looking pic but am I the only one that sees a bit of a Cadillac in it? Maybe not. Just a thought shot to gauge anything reasonable from it. The basic elements do look more upscale though.- 6 replies

Definitely not a good song because of the vocals but the lyrics and the video more than make up for it.

surreal1272 replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Mercedes-Benz
The GLB is a compact, not a sub-compact. The GLA is a sub-compact. Having looked at the pics of the third row I’m assuming that any kids that have to go back there are double leg amputees. I’ve said it before, if you need a third row for ANY reason, get a suitable size vehicle. Ones this size are purely a marketing gimmick IMO and a bad one at that.- 57 replies
