    4 cyl hybrids are for compact economy cars or midsize family sedans, out of place in a large luxury car.
  2. Robert Hall
    Meh, a turbo 4 in a big car like that isn't very compelling. And 340hp according to Wikipedia, not 449hp. The twin turbo V8 that is coming is going to be the hot ticket for CT6...
  3. Robert Hall
    Well, that was what the prototype was a few years ago...that would make sense also..depends on how much they want to invest. It could probably be on the same wheelbase as the 4dr. Something like this but with the new generation interior and front..

    Been freezing rain and sleet here all day... only went out to roll out then roll back in the trash and recycle bins. Days like this are when I really like working from home.

    I'll probably get an oil change and put on new wiper blades before the end of the year. I have an FCA recall letter I need to take care of also.
  6. Robert Hall
    Yeah, I just don't want to deal w/ old vehicle shit anymore. When I get to 100k I'll go for another CPO GC or other...

    Ya, 100k miles is my goal. Just got to 40k miles...took me 18 months to get there from 25k miles. I don't plan to go for 170k/17 years like I did w/ my old Jeep--the newer one is way more complex w/ the electronics, so it may be worse over 100k than the old one was.

    Given that I work from home and drive very little every week (sometimes a 200 mile road trip on the weekends), an EV could work for me. But not anytime soon...

    Just noticed the update to this thread and noticed the OP hasn't posted in a couple years..what happened w/ SAmedei?

    I think they will need a different brand name for the US...'Zotye'? Reminds me of the musician Gotye. This is the SUV equivalent of those cheap Chinese TV brands you see in Wal-Mart and other places for much less than the major TV brands..

    I doubt if they will do a regular cab, would sell maybe 5% of what a 4dr will....they have their priorities right..they know what will sell to Jeep customers. This is more of a novelty pickup--think of it as a Wrangler Unlimited with more cargo space. For a general purpose mid size pickup, that would be from Ram.

    I like that movie a lot also...a good Big 80s flick..saw 'No Way Out' again recently, hadn't seen it in probably 20 years..another good one.

    Was up at 4:30 am to do an airport run this morning. In the departures lane at the airport, saw a pointy black CTS-v wagon...those were so cool. Saw a 1st gen Olds Aurora on the freeway when heading home.

    An Eliminator w/ the Hellcat.

    Same price range as a Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. The off road upgrades gets premium priced.

    The Jeep pickup seems almost as mythical as the mid-engined Corvette...talked about for years, rumored, prototypes sighted, but still nothing in production..
  17. Robert Hall
    Cool.. Ford really should offer the Ranger Raptor here, would be competition...and you know Jeep will have a Rubicon version of the Gladiator.
  18. Robert Hall
    Way cool...like the flying shots.
  19. Robert Hall
    Here's a radical idea..maybe some of the automakers with 4 dr coupes will do 2dr versions of them! That would be a game changer, like an Audi A7 2dr coupe or Mercedes CLS 2dr...
  20. Robert Hall
    Good question...I haven't heard anything concrete about future FCA products beyond MY 2019. From what I've read on Jeep forums, for instance, the next Grand Cherokee (WL) has been delayed until 2021. Maybe the next gen of Charger has been delayed also. Seems like 2020 will probably just be a carryover since 2019 is here already...

    Speaking of 2WD motorcycles, I remember reading about one a long time ago called the Rokon Ranger or similar...really rugged for off road...one Car & Driver article claimed it could climb trees...
  22. Robert Hall
    How many miles you have now? My old Jeep started really feeling it's age above 150k miles. The power windows and locks would randomly work, the airbag light would come on when I turned left, power mirrors quit..
  23. Robert Hall
    Speaking of 'off' settings on switches, one thing annoying w/ my Jeep is the radio has no on/off button. You can turn the volume all the way down to effectively mute it, but there is no off.

    Interesting..odd to hear of automatic without normal off also. I think my sister's STS and Trax have automatic w/ regular off also. My old Jeep had automatic and off settings also, I quit using the automatic setting after they started coming on randomly when parked. I've been using the automatic setting on my newer Jeep, and have the DRLs enabled as well. Get enough cloudy weather I like having them on.
