    While the market is hot, they need to be in there. I don't know if Dodge or Ram will get mid size or full size also, but Jeep is THE SUV brand at FCA..everything else is secondary.

    The GC is already in the 40s-50s in most trim levels--the GC-based 3-row will likely be in the same range, so the full size Ram-based models would be above that. I'd assume a full size BOF Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer would start in at least the Expedition/Tahoe/Yukon price range.. I can see the Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer targeting a broad spectrum of the full size market from Expedition/Tahoe/Suburban up to Navigator/Denali/Escalade but with off road capable versions (ala Ram Power Wagon) available.. Jeep likes having a lot of trims on their models across a price range. I recall a while back talk of a potential version at Range Rover price levels..Jeep is ambitious. Can FCA pull it off? Time will tell, but in recent years they seem to be hitting home runs w/ Jeep and Ram..

    On Saturday I washed the Jeep and the Trax. Got to keep the winter crud off. Topped off the washer fluid. Looking forward to Spring...

    That's weird...the Cleveland show had Lincoln and Cadillac...in the same row with Volvo and Mercedes. I don't think any major brands were not not present..

    The name will probably live on as a sports crossover coupe CUV...
  6. Robert Hall
    Well, it was in the last 5-year plan...maybe it will be in the next one also...

    Well, Ford, GM, Toyota, etc each have multiple 3 row models, so there is precedent.. Explorer and two lengths of Expedition, Traverse, Tahoe, and Suburban, etc. So it sounds like GC will remain two row, then the new 3 row, then the full size BOF Wagoneer (SWB like the Tahoe) and Grand Wagoneer (LWB like the Suburban).

    The current TT is on MQB, along with countless other VWAG products. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Group_MQB_platform

    Of the 3 E-bodies, I think the Toronado from '90 onward wore the 'upsized downsized' MCE the best...

    As one that has allergies and is sensitive to smells like cologne or perfumes, I couldn't imagine having it in a car..ugh.

    Good idea..Grand Cherokee has always been a 2-row SUV, 3-row needs its own identity.
  12. Robert Hall
    Yes, and little fins (finlets?) on the roof, along w/ skegs on the rear lower corners..

    What I see with the new theme is More->Community->Forums to get to the forum list. Oddly, if I come in fresh that navigation doesn't seem to work (clicking on Forums had no response). Only after I've clicked on an article does it work. My usual navigation though is to come in, click on Unread Content (or specific items in Social Stream).

    Totally tubular!

    China is getting a nice MCE for the LaCrosse that we won't see...

    The Pontiac was in Sweden. Harald Fors & Co AB was in Stockholm looks like.

    Maybe they figured out how to route the driveshaft around the storage tubs..or buckets in rows 2 & 3 with a tunnel between the tubs.

    Interesting...the Chrysler minivans used to have to an AWD option, but they dropped it 15 years ago when they added sto-n-go..

    Around here in the Cleveland burbs, Amazon Prime and Fed Ex use Ford Transits (and there are plenty of Amazon sub contractors in all sorts of vehicles). UPS still has the big brown unbranded trucks. USPS still has the ancient Grumman trucks.
  20. Robert Hall
    Isn't UPS buying a bunch of electric vans? I would think UPS, Fed Ex, Amazon etc would be looking closely at electric vans, along w/ the USPS to replace the old Grumman boxes.
  21. Robert Hall
    Nothing different than GM's tactics with Chevy and Cadillac pricing....i.e. Blazer and XT4/5, Tahoe/Suburban and Escalade..
  22. Robert Hall
    Or something out of left field like CX-3 2/3rds.
  23. Robert Hall
    Arteon is a bit smaller than the US Passat but a bit larger than the Euro Passat.
  24. Robert Hall
    Yeah, CX-4 would have made sense for the US....but they already have a different CX-4 in other markets, so they probably didn't want to use it here. But having 3,30,5, and 9 makes no sense...
  25. Robert Hall
    Interesting, looks like they are going w/ the non-conforming nomenclature for the US market..it's already up on the US Mazda website.
