Why EVs Have a Long Road Ahead
ocnblu replied to ccap41's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
How can this be somehow spun into a positive? It's a complete joke, the electric car boondoggle. -
Local Mitsu dealer is a sad place. The lot was dirty. And on top of that, they had rows of brand new vehicles, all backed INTO EACH OTHER. I'm serious... their rear bumpers were touching! WHO would want to buy a new car from a place like that? It is sad to know I worked there when it was a proud Lincoln-Mercury dealer for six years... now it is a dump, under different ownership.

Hyundai News:Hyundai Santa Cruz Pickup is Still Coming
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
I imagine it would be relatively easy if they were into it. I like the normal 4Runner, but the Limited looks so "tarted up", ugh. The 4Runner in general sticks to a tried and true formula.- 42 replies

Hyundai News:Hyundai Santa Cruz Pickup is Still Coming
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Hyundai
I would rather stick with a body-on-frame pickup truck, much more rugged. The Tacomas are nice. They just seem to go on and on and on. The SR5 Access Cab 4X4 V6 comes nicely equipped.- 42 replies

Industry News: Bosch Claims A New Breakthrough Can Save Diesel
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
Sounds promising, I hope it pans out. This could save thousands of automotive jobs. People are comfortable with diesel. Go over to the VW page at FB and you will see plenty of comments about people missing their TDi. -
Dude it's an HR-V with a neon kit. Are you serious?

People down the block traded their CR-V for a new Outlander. Eclipse Cross AWC whipped the Compass Limited 4X4 in several drag races over onto the YouTube... CVT v. 9 speed auto... Mitsu is way down on advertised horses but has better torque... results were shocking to me, moreso because of the Mitsu's 153 hp rating and CVT than the Compass' pronounced, and verified, lack of speed. Yes yes, a drag race is a narrow measure of a vehicle... but it is a valid one... the whole powertrain working together to give a result that belies the advertised ratings proves what I'm saying. It is not the sheer numbers but the competitive comparison of a drag race that bears this out. Eclipse Cross also acquitted itself well on their off-road course... leading me to call the Mitsu AWC system as "unsung hero" in comparison to the Jeep, which performed flawlessly of course on the same route, but that is expected. I have to remember that Mitsu has a pretty good history of authentic off-road and rally vehicles, so their lighter duty system being capable was only a mild surprise. Haha, now I want to go lurking on the Mitsu lot this weekend to put noseprints on the Eclipse Cross.

BMW Concept iX3 Previews an Electric X3 : Comments
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Beijing Motor Show
I'm still having trouble believing these governments are going to bring the people around to the so-called "virtues" of EVs when there has been no preponderance of evidence that people want them... unless they are subsidized by taxpayers. How is that sustainable?- 9 replies

$2.89- $2.93 here. New Santa Fe has a trucky face, I can see that face on a pickup version of the Santa Fe. Base model Ioniq has an MSRP of only $21k, seems like a good deal for 58 MPG.- 42 replies

I was going to say, Chevrolet is lucky the sedan market is tanking (after ALL THESE TRIES, SMH) but then I remembered, this engine is in their Equinox as well... -

'71 LeMans sedan, light green, with dark green vinyl top. Sadly, the sedans (and B-bodies) get sacrificed to save the A-body coupes, so I felt a little special seeing it intact.
