    Makes me wonder if Mazda and Ford would team up again.....

    The Regal and the Verano both need to move up in price and content. Let them start doing plastic seats like Benz and BMW and make those standard, give the Verano AWD and drop the 2.4 use the 1.6T instead, The Regal Turbo needs a bit of a power bump to at least GS levels while the GS should go higher. Regal needs a visual refresh and bring over the wagon, sprucing up the Regal interior materials couldn't hurt either. +1 Would help bunches here....need to give the Regal bigger balls...would be fun to make a little monster out of it...

    So ya want to help me pick out a compact SUV? Joking.....lol.... Yep, tends to be true when you are the car guy-people want you to tell them what is "best"...and quite often they have no idea what they even want! I've been able to help some, but with others you can only shake your head.... Hear you on the crow part, kind eating a little myself! Wasn't thrilled about my parents getting a Town & Country. Figured it would be nothing but problems. So far, in four years it's been pretty flawless-and the few issues it did have FCA told care of it right away. Impressed so far.... I think even us can be a bit confused on what we want as well. When you know all the info about all of the cars, but make a different choice anyways. Here I am thinking the Nox' would be an easy choice-but with my son heavy into scouts and camping now- the Jeep Patriot has reentered the radar as a purchase. Believe it or not, because of the space I can put stuff.....amazing the things you consider as a parent! That, and the buyout is quite cheap (can dump it on the wife for something else) Still tough either way.....

    That just sucks....can't understand why they can't just do their job.... And you're back in MI? Did not know that.....

    General Motors created the first dedicated automotive test facility with MPG in 1924, all the divisions pounded their vehicles there constantly. Today it encompasses every terrain imaginable and is over 4000 acres. +1

    Reminds me I need to work out....

    Yep!

    I'd normally say enjoy the Buick, but with the tires, it's best to grab something else! In my case, since my cars start at 10 years old, pretty much any trip over 300 or so miles would be in a rental. Not that the current fleet couldn't handle it, but you never know as they age..... I think as I start updating the fleet shortly, that might change though....

    Thinking Always with Wings might be a better choice Drew.....

    Hmmm....

    1- I am still am...long in the tooth or not. The now 10 year old Jeep twins are beating sales pretty well.....and they are not even giving them away! Who knows....I'm seeing a truckload of new Malibus....could be the reason.... 2 Agreed!! Yeah no clue how those old as F Jeep twins sell..at all.. unless they're throwing heavy discounts on them. They just look so dated inside and out. With the Nox being a Chevy I expect it to sell fairly well even if the product was sub par just because of availability and if it weren't selling hot GM can afford to throw some money at it regardless to get them to move. My local dealer has a TON of the new Malibus already. Very sharp looking car. I originally hated it, thought it looked terrible. Now, it's grown on me quite a bit. The only thing that kind of annoys me about it is the LED fog lights.. I feel like they should be flipped over. I don't like the angle of the bend. Picky? Yep. It wouldn't keep me from buying one though. LOL...glad I'm not the only one that feels that way about the LEDs on the Bu.... I call foul on this comparison. If $36.7k is within the realm of fair play for this comparison (That's what the CLA price-as-tested was), then the Regal GS should have been included, sure the MSRP is $37k on the GS, but you can get $2k off of that simply for having a pulse. That would have addressed all of their complaints about the suspension, steering, etc. The GS has continuously variable shocks that can be tightened up in "GS Mode" +1

    I expected it to be a little up there....but wow, that is pretty bad. Considering the price point, you would expect more.....

    Seems things are starting to slow for the sedans.....looks like across many of the makes.....
  20. daves87rs
    Just a bit on the quiet side, no big deal.....
  21. daves87rs
    Surprised a bit that the Nox was down... Cruze will be new after this month.... No surprise on Sonic/Spark with gas prices down.....
  22. daves87rs
    Get a feeling it it going to be twin to the Buick....but with a cruze nose.. More of a station wagon look....

  25. daves87rs
