    You keep saying it doesn't matter, but WHY? Show documented proof as to why you think it doesn't matter. Presidents and presidential candidates traditionally release their tax information. What is 45 hiding?

    At the dealer yesterday and today..went in yesterday for the 40k service incl. oil change and filter, air filter and cabin air filter, new wiper blades, tire rotation. Went back today to get the passenger side mirror replaced (I cracked out the housing a couple months ago backing out of the garage). Swapped the floor mats from winter Weathertechs to summer carpet mats, ready for summer.

    Also saw a clean brown '70s Mercedes S-class for sale in a yard...dark brown, with dark window tint, extra chrome and wide whitewall tires...

    Yeah...neat to see a CUV being used like an SUV. (J/K) And the loading area in front of Ace is on an uphill slope, so you end up loading at an angle. I loaded some mulch, soil, anti-grub spread, etc in my Jeep along w/ lightbulbs...playing the Mr. domestic suburban homeowner role...

    I had a run of bad luck w/ nails on my old Jeep on a set of Goodyear Wranglers back in '02-04..must had at least 5 nails in 3 tires, had to get them patched each time. When I was in Arizona my sister was driving my Jeep and ran over something on freeway, had to call AAA to swap on the spare. Back in the 90s I did occasionally swap a flat tire w/ the spare on my Bronco or Mustangs, those were 15 inch and I was a lot younger... My old Jeep had 16 inch tires had a full size spare and jack, my newer one has a spare and jack, don't recall if it's a space saver or not (the salesman showed it to me for about 5 seconds when I bought it).

    Saw a new bright red Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio out front of Ace Hardware, guy was loading it up w/ big bags of mulch and potting soil.

    Maybe they will add an extra letter....like VR or VS. Or V+ or V++. Or V-extreme.

    In the states, I'd call AAA. I have changed tires myself, but probably not in the last 20 years. And a 20 inch wheel and tire is really freaking heavy...with my back issues, I wouldn't try it.

    I wonder if this could lead to a return of Renault to the US. Some of their hot hatches or the Alpine coupe would be nice to see here. And would the new company be abbreviated RFCA or FCRA?

    Saw a '90s Roadmaster wagon in dark blue w/ light trim in the service bay at the FCA dealer this morning. They had a white GC Trackhawk in the showroom, pretty sweet. Didn't check to see if they had any Gladiators yet, didn't see any. I was in getting my 40k service plus oil & filter change, tire rotation, recall fix, etc. Going back in tomorrow to get the passenger side mirror that I smashed replaced.

    I haven't used Uber for the airport in Cleveland yet, but have never had a problem with them around town. I've used them in the past for airport runs in Phoenix and Denver a few years ago.

    The V series are the only ones where torque or horsepower counts, though. No one buying a non-V series Cadillac cares about the horsepower or torque (or probably is even aware of the numbers).
  13. Robert Hall
    I wonder if they dropped that idea of badging with torque or power, don't see those badges in pics of these Vs.

    45 and his supporters seem to be extraordinarily thin-skinned and unable to handle any criticism, and fact-based truths. It doesn't help that we don't really have a functioning Congress either...
  15. Robert Hall
    I've heard a lot of criticism of the 9 spd auto, that's the same in the Cherokee? The ZF 8 spd in the GC has been fine, I find it very smooth.

    Elon says a lot of things. Elon 'facts' aren't necessarily true facts.

    Funny anecdote, for some reason I've seen a 1/2 dozen Alfa Romeos (4 Giulias and 2 Stelvios) in the last week. The Giulia Quadrafiglio does look great in dark blue.
  18. Robert Hall
    Would have thought Wrangler sales would have been better, given it is Spring and the JL is new. And the facelifted Cherokee is down. Though the WK2 GC keeps chugging along in it's 9th model year a decade after its debut at the 2009 NYIAS... Also, these charts are pretty much unreadable on mobile (it looked like the Challenger and Charger had single digit sales).

    Just saw this sharp 71 Impala sport coupe. A few min later spotted a sharp silver blue 72 Cutlass formal roof coupe in a driveway. Then later on the way home saw a really clean '86-90 Pontiac Safari wagon in traffic. Dark blue w/ blond plood trim in good shape, wire wheel covers, whitewalls and mudflaps. No rust that I could see.

    There may be technical reasons for delays also, IIRC the F1-based (inspired?) powertrain was having trouble meeting European emissions regs, IIRC..

    I can't imagine the automakers would be thrilled about tariffs on products from Mexico...aren't a lot of pickups from GM and Ram built in Mexico, as well as engines? And VW builds a fair bit in Mexico also..

    The right, though has a lot of religious fanatics, anti-science, anti-education, bigots, racists, homophobes, xenophobes, technophobes, white nationalists, confederate flag wavers, puppy mill owners, gun nuts, etc...a lot of unsavory people--the lowest of humanity. There used to be sane people in the Republican party--the moderates and pro-business, pro-military people but it seems they have been pushed out by the lunatics from the extreme right. The right/left sides aren't exactly equally comparable. There is definitely some crazy stuff on the left too, but NOT REMOTELY to the scale of that coming from the right. The right has lost it's mind in recent years...

    I was being facetious, which should have been obvious. I'll add sarcasm tags.
  24. Robert Hall
    I assume it will get built, probably all 275 have been bought and paid for already. Since it is so low volume not a risk to build.
  25. Robert Hall
    I don't know, I find the left more rational as their arguments/positions are more based in rational thought and science, while the right is based on religion and fake shit.
