  1. I remember way back when the first gen Miata had a special edition in dark green w/ a saddle interior...would like to see that color combo again.
  2. I like it, though I don't think I'd go for bright orange. A Miata is definitely on the short list of modern cars I'd like to own.
  3. I like those Park Avenues. As far as hip hop, I do listen to some occasionally... I did see Dr Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg Eminem and others on the Up in Smoke Tour back in '00...I do like the old Dr Dre and Tupac tracks like 'California Love'.. Didn't see much of anything this week..haven't left the house since Monday (a downside/upside to working from home?). Got to get out and run around some this weekend.
  4. They were from L.A..West Coast hip hop...their lead rapper Everlast had some solo success..
  5. Retro touch referencing the old FJ Land Cruisers? They often had white roofs (as did the FJ Cruiser).
  6. Tears for Fears doesn't bother me, though I prefer Simple Minds for mid 80s pop music. Now as far as a song that elicits a strong, visceral dislike from me, the worst is House of Pain's 'Jump Around'..that damn squealing sound sets me off. Always have to change the station or mute the radio if it comes on.
  7. I like the styling...maybe the next 4Runner will look like a larger version..the current 4Runner is so ugly..
  8. The Chinese CX-4 looks nice, kind of crossover coupeish...
  9. China currently has a CX-4, which I assume is unrelated.
  10. Well, they have the CX3, CX5 and CX9 now. So somewhere in there..there are a few open naming slots if it's a new model. Or is it a preview of the next generation of one of the existing models?
  11. I like the interior...esp. the two tones..
  12. Probably look better in something other than boring white.
  13. That would be cool....but think bigger....how about an AMG Actros?
  14. Interesting move..the Sequoia has always been more of a sedate family truckster than an off-roader.. gives people an option that want more off-road capability and space than the 4Runner but less expensive than the Land Cruiser.
  15. Perhaps, but M-B has been building trucks pretty much uninterrupted for over a century, so it's not like they are a newcomer to trucks like some are asserting. Maybe not US style light and heavy duty pickups, but commercial trucks in general have long been one of their major product lines. Yes...don't know if it would fit without major mods... a Power Stroke diesel Mustang would be interesting also (I think some of those have been swapped into modern Mustangs).
  16. Correct. Though maybe the 7.3 will eventually find it's way into a Mustang 4WD Super Duty edition. According to the Book of Knowledge, it was in 1895. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truck
  17. Some could be tech industry resource units that relocated from the SF Bay Area or Austin or other non-snowy climate locales.. I used to see that in Denver. Coworkers that moved from So Cal or Austin that had 2wd SUVs...
  18. I think if they had done a 2dr with normal trim and priced much the same as the regular Range Rover (or a small premium) it would have done well...this was absurdly priced.
  19. That makes sense. I know if I lived out there I'd be driving my JGC.
  20. Yes, it seems so weird to imagine Teslas on a regular used car lot. I guess I haven't been to a used car lot in a long time. I thought with EVs it was 'once you go electric, you never go back' but who knows....
  21. Good question..I wonder if there are used Teslas at non-Tesla dealers...I suppose that could happen.
  22. This was mostly from the Rich Rebuilds podcast about his experience buying a used Model X, but IIRC things like waiting months for the car to be delivered locally (w/ Tesla providing dates that kept changing), lack of photographs of the car, poor communication over the phone w/ untrained people, cars stored at a 3rd party auction lot, etc. Seems like core issues are that Tesla doesn't have used car lots or used car sales processes like normal dealers.. from comments it sounds like it's not an isolated event.
  23. I've heard the Tesla used car buying experience can be horrific...hopefully that will improve in the future.
  24. I'm being serious....899 lbs/ft (or rods to the hectare or whatever EU measurement is in use) is plenty enough...
  25. Maybe for the Unimog's European markets, they make enough....they aren't in Texass..
