Michigan Governor Signs Bill Banning Direct Auto Sales
daves87rs replied to William Maley's topic in Tesla
I hope it does. And perhaps Michigan could kick Snyder to the curb. I have no problems with Republicans per se, but Snyder is an asshat. Not worried too much about Snyder...he pissed off one too many retirees..... -
Michigan Governor Signs Bill Banning Direct Auto Sales
daves87rs replied to William Maley's topic in Tesla
Granted, I am not sure why they are so worried....I don't see Telsa selling anything but Higher end products....there is much more money there anyways. Trust me when I say it will not last long either....Telsa will sell here soon.... -

Buick News: Rumorpile: Buick Envision Coming To U.S. In 2015
daves87rs replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
What brings it home is that in the same dealership the Acadia has sold over 64K. GM did that much differentiation in the vehicles to elicit the additional sales selling at an almost identical price point. That's over 110K sold of this platform in the same showroom. Add in the Traverse's 80K.. and WOW But Buick is not GMC....a new SUV will eat into it's sales....... There is a substantial size difference between the Envision and the Enclave. I don't think there will be any cannibalization between these two models. If it will hurt any model right now it will be the Terrain. The Terrain is in the same size class as the Envision and is getting rather dated at this point. I know a refresh is coming, but I think the Envision will be here sooner than the new Terrain. While true, GMC can have a fuller lineup of SUVs....because trucks are what they do. Buick still does cars too, and it might turn into more models needed. If this is what Buick really wants to do, that's fine. Then GMC is going to need some new stuff...... -

I had a crazy summer myself....wish I could have made plans to hang....as you were not far from me. Not in the cards, I guess... I could see you doing more of that...as your pictures came out quite well. But it can be nuts, as I wonder how our other phototogs make it out here sometimes... Maybe you could do a mix of things? I guess I could say welcome to the club...I'm currently trying to reboot myself into something different as well. Might shoot for an MBA myself...

Nah, you won't hurt the car's feelings...

I think that is the reason I did not write up when when had our Jeep Compass rental when the Cobalt went in. It was a pretty beat up rental. even with nearly 30k on it. You can just tell it was abused..... We did a few thousand miles in it, and I could agree with reg and some stuff....handling on it just sucks. Powertrain was not bad, it could get out of it's own way... I thought the seats were okay, but could have used a bit less black inside that car.. Radio was pretty decent, but boy you have to take hours setting it to be right... I had to remember it was a station wagon and not a jeep, makes it a better car. It is no Jeep, though it handled great in bad weather. We had ours almost two months due to the Cobalt Recall, and put over 2k on it. Day to Day, it's not bad...... I could live with one if the wife wanted one...
