April (Fools) Carspotting - cars and/or fools
Robert Hall replied to trinacriabob's topic in The Lounge
Saw a gray Chevy Bolt at the grocery yesterday, one of a very few I've seen around here. This afternoon in a food coma from Easter Brunch, lying on the sofa watching an old movie about WW II in the Philippines saw an unusual truck in the movie...had a squared off cab w/ a C-shaped door opening like a mid 20s Model T, but a late 30s Ford truck front end w/ oval grille. -
I remember that with my diesel Escort and my Bronco II..gutless wonders on hills w/ the A/C on. With the Bronco II was particularly noticeable in Colorado..it was scary slow on steep sections on I-70 in the mountains...

Probably...don't know, don't care. When I need A/C, I use it.
-
I guess they kept the interior materials cheap to maximize profit...now I wonder if it will be priced competitively or if they will price gouge? So how does this compare to the Equinox in size? Looks tiny...
-
I can't imagine anyone buying a family sedan like the Sonata would care about the HP, torque or 0-60. This is functional point A to point B transportation.
-
XC40 looks very substantial in person, despite it's compact dimensions. Seems like a solid, stylish product inside and out...
-
I really like the looks of that E-class coupe. More so than the S-class coupe which looks like the roof is too small for the body from some angles.
-
The mainstream multitudes that buy Toyotas want predictability and consistency in their leased transportation products. .
-
That passenger side dash trim wedge is a common motif seen on countless modern vehicles.

I took my '00 GC off road in Colorado a week after I bought it new. But that's how it is in Colorado. I remember seeing lots of GCs on the high country trails. I'm sure it's still a small percentage of owners, though. In generic suburbs, the typical SUV owner with 2.5 kids probably rarely goes on anything rougher than a gravel road...
-
For these luxury SUVs, it's probably less than 1% of owners that take them off road, and in the US it's mostly in Colorado and a few other western states, I would presume..
-
Interesting...I kind of like the blue, but don't care for the gray. If it were all blue, that might be interesting. I see they are doing the white trim like on the blue interior Navis...

Not sure what your attached images are, but they aren’t rendering.

New York - Ready for my Closeups
Robert Hall replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in New York International Auto Show (NYIAS)
Since it's still a concept, I wouldn't think they'd let people in it until they have the production version at a show...they haven't done any press test drives of it, yet, haven't they? -
You always have to bring your little dark cloud of negative energy to every EV thread don't ya?
-
Probably a dead pedal for the driver's left foot...pretty common feature..
-
Grab handles for getting in and out? Like how some SUVs put them on the A-pillar or roof...
-
Even earlier..Dec 2007 in Japan. It got a new dash design in 2017, I think. I think they are going to keep it going as long as they can..immortal Godzilla...
-
I'd assume CT4 will be in a similar price range as the ATS, the CT5 similar to the CTS...
-
Yes, 'fake' because of the generic FWD/AWD transverse engine platforms. 'Real' M-Bs and BMWs are on proper RWD platforms.
