    A very strange looking homemade crew cab Chebby Another odd crew cab.. I like this one... How about a Jeep FC crew cab?

    Actually, in some markets families do use MPVs/minivans instead of CUVs. Some of the M-B promotional videos show families (albeit likely German ones) using the EQV...many different use cases are possible for such a vehicle. I could see a spacious electric minivan as an alternative to M-B's other family vehicles like the GLE or GLS.

    I'm sure it would be a blast to drive...I love performance wagons.

    Audi's Avant wagons have been sleek since the mid 80s...this is just the current one.
  5. Robert Hall
    It's not a CUV..it's a proper station wagon...the performance wagon version of the A6 sedan.
  6. Robert Hall
    That was just a funny looking wagon, though. Not a proper tall roof minivan w/ sliding doors.

    I am surprised they haven't marketed a Vito or Metris family luxury minivan in the US before...I'm sure there are people that would buy one for the badge alone...

    Yeah, seems like an odd spot for it. There is no standard for where chargers sit relative to vehicles, unlike gas pumps which an ICE vehicle pulls up beside...vehicles can be beside, in front of, or behind a charger...as long as the power hose is long enough to reach, the port can be most anywhere... this van appears to be related to the Metris, so an electric delivery van for Amazon, etc would make a lot of sense in parts of the US.

    Yes..but it's probably operated as a distinct business entity and they buy or lease cars from Audi NA, Audi NA probably doesn't give them cars...

    The rental company probably got a volume discount on ordering all the same color en masse...and silver has been Audi's signature hue for decades...

    Droopy headliners was a GM thing in the late 70s and throughout the 80s IIRC. I've never had a vehicle w/ that issue.
  12. Robert Hall
    That's like a 15yr old worn out car, though. Not worth fixing.

    Another weekend in the islands. Saw this sharp 55 Chevy Bel Air convertible on Kelleys Island. Also saw a sharp yellow Jeep Commando and a couple out to pasture 59-60 Ford pickups. Saw a few tiny Suzuki Kei vans and crew cab pickups. Beautiful evening sitting here waiting to drive on the ferry. It’s refueling from an 80s Ford tanker truck in the old Sohio paint scheme. Beautiful place. Driving out of Marblehead yesterday evening after the ferry ride saw a dark blue Bentley Mulsanne and a dark red Lambo Aventador SV...seemed out of place in a small Ohio lakeside town.

    It's there to fill the gap between the bumper and body. That's probably a modern aftermarket Continental kit. Good day for old GM sightings... saw a clean white early Fiero GT, a clean white mid 80s Cutlass Supreme 2dr (white 1/4 top and red interior), a clean bronze early 80s Camaro Berlinetta, a clean black '67 Camaro, a clean yellow '75 Olds 88 convertible top down, tan interior...a couple out enjoying the beautiful Friday afternoon weather...

    That would definitely be the way the German 3 approach the market...

    It will be interesting to see how the performance compares to cars like the Ferrari 488. In Z51 spec the estimated 0-60 time sounds in the same range, but over $200k less... It's in the 718 Boxster/Cayman price range, but potentially playing at a higher level...

    LoL....I've worn New Balance since high school, and am XXL... but I don't go to Old Country Buffet and don't plan on buying a Vette anytime soon...
  19. Robert Hall
    Interesting how the trim below the decklid/above the rear bumper differs between the 60S and the 75..
  20. Robert Hall
    I meant stop selling to (and thus shipping product to) these corrupt dealers. Make them hurt...the current franchising model is obsolete and stupid, IMO...
  21. Robert Hall
    Yet somehow the Wrangler continues to succeed with the primitive approach and removable tops. Sounds like the new Bronco may have a version with such a configuration. Will be interesting to see if it works for them.
  22. Robert Hall
    And the Broncos, Scouts, Ramchargers, Blazers and Jimmies didn't even have normal convertible tops but primitive tops that snapped on and had to be manually removed. Very different from a proper power folding top like the Murano CC, Evoque, or T-Roc have...
  23. Robert Hall
    If they see dealers surcharging, they should stop shipping cars to them for a year to penalize them.

    Saw a dark gray Aston Martin Vanquish on a windy backroad yesterday, and went past a house with an interesting group of GM cars in the driveway--a really clean late 90s tan Cadillac Sedan de Ville, a bright red '04-06 GTO, a black Chevy SS, and a modified '80s Regal--possibly a GN---in a custom bronze/gold paint job w/ cowl hood, black centered BBS wheels--very sharp.
  25. Robert Hall
    The Wrangler does well in this niche. But I like the idea of a convertible SUV w/ a power top. A 2dr Grand Cherokee cabrio would be sweet...
