    What was that junior? Your obvious attempt at trolling and then throwing your little tantrum was, well, obvious. Get over it. Agreed on the RAM part. There is no reason to offer it to a model that, despite the extra time it was given by FCA, is still a limited time run.

    This is the perfect use of EV tech (although a little more range would nice considering the primary use of these). Not sure how this is funny to some folks other than to just troll as usual. Ever the pessimist they are I guess.
  3. surreal1272
    Along with EVERYONE else at this rate.

    So being irony impaired is a real problem for you. That’s tough. Let me help you. You, of all people, calling someone else a “pessimist” is the very definition of the word “irony”. Maybe this helps clarify the issue as well as address your third grade sensibility. “He better get in trouble for that since I did and I think this place is biased against me anyway!” Third grade sensibility.

    Hello, my name is irony. Have we met?

    So the Kia dealership had to keep my wife’s Soul until Monday for her alternator replacement. They gave me a Hyundai Kona until then. Not a bad driving little car but giving me a black one in Phoenix in August seems a bit lacking in weather awareness.

    I’m 5’10” and 210. It’s not so much my size as it is my bad back. Damn thing should come with KY lol! I agree about the visibility. The back window has very little viewing height to it. I liked everything else about the interior though but I get people’s gripe about the vents. They are not everyone’s cup of tea.

    Did get some sit in time in a Stinger GT2 AWD. Love how it sits and I like the interior. However, it did not come with a shoehorn to get me and my bad back in and out of that thing. Still a nice ride though, if you want to shell out $55K for it.

    Currently sitting at a Kia service center getting my wife’s Soul dealt with. 30k miles on it and the alternator took a dump on me last night. Not how I want to spend my Saturday.

    I’m sorry @ocnblu but saying this is a natural progression for VW aid like saying the Nissan 370Z convertible was a natural progression to the Murano convertible. Feel free to reference the Dakota convertible if you wish to save yourself the crayon expense.

    Better open that case back up because the three CARS above were a two doors while the T-Roc is a four door CUV that gets its cargo space and doors cut in half. Are you paying attention yet or do you still want to make up irrelevant arguments and comparisons to satisfy you urge to troll? Again, feel free to reference the “success” of similar attempts at chopping up a CUV. I’m sure Nissan and Land Rover have some words about that. Seriously, next time pay attention to what was said from the beginning and you can avoid the embarrassment of being wrong

    Wet willy yourself junior. Say something worth upvoting next time instead of your normal trolling nonsense and that might change. And thanks for proving me right about convertibles and where they belong and don’t belong.
  14. surreal1272
    Only debatable to folks with out of date thinking and afraid to accept change ways. The rest of us know what’s coming and don’t have a problem with it. Good thing that little violin is still playing.
  15. surreal1272
    So no real response? You brought up the Dakota like it was somehow popular because Chrysler had other popular convertibles (outside of the LeBaron, you are shooting blanks there too). You pretty much proved my point about convertible as it applies to SUVs and apparently pick up trucks. Whatever success they may have had with convertibles did not carry over to the Dakota because there was NO DEMAND FOR IT. Get it now? No lack of comprehension at all because it was you who failed to read what I saying in the first damn place. Stop deflecting and stop acting you don’t know what I was saying.
  16. surreal1272
    Ah yes, the sedans that sell in less numbers overall than their CUVs. That makes complete sense </sarcasm>. As much as I hate the CUV market, it isn't going anywhere anytime soon with the exception of this crossover coupe nonsense. Those will eventually fade into the night.
  17. surreal1272
    "I can’t wait til this crossover craze blows up in all their faces." Does that include Mercedes Benz?
  18. surreal1272
    As a matter of fact @ocnblu, the trend has been moving upward towards the no haggle model and it’s not just the Costco/GM model which has been wildly successful. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.chicagotribune.com/autos/sc-end-dealer-haggling-autotips-1020-20161011-story.html%3foutputType=amp “People who remain stuck in the old ways or are complicit to the old ways, will always remain stuck while the rest of the world moves on.”
  19. surreal1272
    You are utterly clueless as to what we both are talking about. Saturn is terrible example of what’s being done now. It was still a dealership and it’s problem had not &#036;h&#33; to do with its “no haggle pricing” and everything to do with the product itself. Seriously man. Pay attention to the actual facts next time instead of just making up your own.
  20. surreal1272
    Exactly my point. Not every damn thing out there needs a drop top and sure as hell not a CUV. Oh and that last pic is the convertible I would have only in black with a white ragtop and red leather interior. ‘59 please. Wildly popular? I know you are not talking about the Dakota Convertible. From an article that took all of eight seconds to find. “A scant 2842 adventurous souls took Dodge up on its top-down Dakota offer that year. For 1990, even with the addition of four-cylinder trucks and the color blue to the paint options, sales fell to just 909.” Source (and proving how not everything needs or should have a drop top). https://www.hagerty.com/articles-videos/articles/2018/06/27/1989-91-dodge-dakota-sport-convertible

    It’s a special song for folks who complain about progress and change.
  22. surreal1272
    When you have actually read what I said and why I said it, then we can talk. Until then, like Drew said, this isn’t even for the US so you’re just spouting off about nothing as usual. For the record, this is a proper convertible and this is what you trade practicality for.
  23. surreal1272
    And playing just for you and those out of date ways,
  24. surreal1272
    You would know all about pishposh being an expert on the subject matter and all. He is not wrong. Dealers that do that are a joke and in this day and age, it is pretty damn easy to make dealerships regret the practice of overcharging just because they can. For all of Tesla’s flaws, their sales model will eventually spread to others who will get tired of these shady dealers that do nothing but make potential customers run far away from thus killing the bottom line of the manufacturers for which they sell. People are slowly but surely seeing through the tactic and eventually, the rules will change, pishposh and all.
  25. surreal1272
    Good grief. You seriously have a reading comprehension problem. It is a problem whether it is a CUV or an SUV so get your nomenclature straight before trolling as usual. The same issues exist (where do you stash removal top, what happens to cargo room when it’s just a retractable top, etc) so quit trying to split hairs where there aren’t any and actually read and properly comprehend what I’m saying before pulling your little troll act again. The key part of all this blu is that I am merely stating my opinion that overall, convertible SUVs and CUVs are pretty damn pointless, Jeep Wrangler not withstanding.
