You all have seen those fruit molds for growing fruit into various shapes? The City Express likes like someone placed a baby anteater in one of those and let it grow to shape.

I simply cannot like the new Cruze. I tried and tried. I love the fact a diesel is available, but I just cannot cotton to the product. And the new Equinox Diesel is awesome, 39 MPG... but the vehicle overall is such a snooze.

Chevrolet News:Chevrolet Considers Trim and Features Changes for Camaro
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Chevrolet
Them there supercomputers ought to be able to run an assembly line a la carte, like the old days. Option packages are nothing but extortion. I should be able to order what I want. There is a balance between higher profits and higher unit sales. -
I like this idea. I think the Silverado Custom is too narrowly focused though, with only a few color options and too few body configs. Maybe the cheaper Camaro V8 could be called Camaro Custom.

Gotta tell ya, "dream" and "hybrid" just don't flow together at all.

I was lurking at the VW lot last wknd checking out the Alltracks and new Tiguans. Anyone who has been around here for a while knows I am a VW lover, having owned several. When I stuck my nose tight against the Tiguan's back glass, I was actually sort of underwhelmed by the space behind the second row. Visually it seems like my Jeep at least matches it. The rear doors on the Tiguan are 3 miles long, and it looks like it has good room back there, but I also think my Jeep has a relatively roomy second row. Plus... the Tiguan's looks are soooo buttoned down, even for a VW. They are famous for their functional, conservative style since forever, but it is a little sleepy looking, even for me. Although the T-Roc will be smaller still, I think it will be a spunky little ute, with its body-color interior trim and more spirited style. There are YouTube vids on the T-Roc and I'll be innerested in seeing it in person.

Meh, cheaper than the Bolt yes, and it looks marginally better than Leaf v.1, but the Bolt out specs it big time. And the Model 3 is continuing Tesla's tradition of jokes.

I had the distinct pleasure of following a gold '75 Chevelle coupe for about a mile this morning, before I had to turn off into work. All stock, with rally wheels and tin top.

Well I was just happy to find out that the third row is an option. I "built" a new Tiguan in green over at VW's site and it came up at $27k for the config I'd want (just $1k more than my Jeep), but the fuel mileage figures are down considerably from my Jeep Compass, which amazes me with its real world consumption (stands at 31.5 overall according to DIC with 5500 miles so far... GREAT!). As mentioned... a TDi Tiguan would rock my socks, but alas, cool heads are nowhere to be found.

Did the oil change kid not tighten the filter? That is what happened to me with the first oil change on my Compass... big puddle in my garage... got under there and tightened it BY HAND, cleaned up the puddle and topped off the level with 0W20. Makes me wonder about them if my vehicle actually needs more complicated work one day.

Jeep News: Spying: Jeep Cherokee Refresh May Drop Split Headlights
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Jeep
With the Compass and Grand Cherokee sharing a theme, I hope they can make the Cherokee continue to stand out, but not nearly as bizarrely as it does now.
