Tsk... not talking about driving with it open. I am talking about operating it after ice, snow, mud, etc. is on it.

OMG it's EXACT!

It's exactly where mud, snow and ice get thrown up by the wheels, depending on the seasons... in the real world.

Yes Bill, they were forced to sell it to an unimpressed public in looney compliance states. It was a waste of resources. Good thing the real Kia Soul is so well thought out. -
Industry News: Average Age of Cars in the U.S. Climbs Again
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
What does FIAT want? They owe me nothing because I did not have one warranty issue with my first-year 2017 Jeep Compass, I put around 37k miles on it in the short time I had it and for what it was, it served me very well. So your clamor on "FIAT" means nothing to me. Hey stop acting like a dummy. I told you in the very same typical high quality post that I'VE BEEN WORKING THROUGH THE WHOLE THING. I cannot write estimates FROM HOME, bigshot. Lord have mercy, talk about spoon feeding the illiterates. -
Industry News: Average Age of Cars in the U.S. Climbs Again
ocnblu replied to William Maley's topic in Industry News
First two weeks of Wolf's shutdown, we were on a split schedule, each "team" working 3 days/week, but that soon changed, been back working 5 days as normal since then. This "working from home" debacle has been a bit of a disaster for my industry simply due to the fact that dealing with insurance companies has been haphazard at best. They don't call back, payments have been in the wrong amounts, sent to the wrong place, the employees, we can tell, are not paying attention to business while The Price Is Right or Days Of Our Lives is on as they work from their living rooms. I heard a screeching in the background as I was talking to an insurance rep the other day, I asked him if he was working from home, he said "yes". Then I asked him if he has parakeets or parrots, he said "those are my KIDS". Pure BS. Cars are lasting longer because ppl have been demanding higher quality vehicles. Ppl also have not been enticed by the new stuff. A vehicle comes out and the design remains static for like 6 years at a time... where is the incentive to buy a new vehicle that looks the same as the old one? And the notion that cash strapped Americans are waiting for ridiculous toy EVs at twice the price of their reliable ICE vehicles is PURE LUNACY. -

Where has all the *EXCITEMENT* gone out of the car hobby? I mean OEMs are delaying intros (and except for the excellent Bronco, I see nothing on the horizon to get jazzed about), auto shows are CANCELLED, cruise nights are kaput... it's just a barren landscape out there. Change my mind!

Maybe Firestone, Goodyear or Hankook will have an "End Of Summer Blowout Sale" on tires next month! Well in production, from day one, it was fiberglass. But whether it went from clay model or wooden buck to fiberglass directly as a prototype, est-ce votre question?

Just like everywhere else though... if you "know" somebody, you can get a sticker on an absolute hoopty.
