  1. Durango is a 3 row midsize, as is the Explorer, Highlander, etc.....definitely smaller than full size models like the Expedition or Tahoe..
  2. Personally, I prefer the boxier SUVs...they can look stylish without compromising cargo space..the Grand Cherokee is stylish but still upright with decent cargo space..I've used every square inch of that cargo space a few times....
  3. On the left side of the photo (pointy headlight) is an Accord....Ridgeline is on the right..
  4. I think that is a custom or a photoshop..I don't think there is a current production Mini pickup. Another interesting idea would be a modern 'mini pickup' in the sense of the ones from the 70s-80s like the Datsun 620, Toyota Hilux, Ford Courier, Chevy Luv or S10...i.e. a compact truck. I would think there would be a market for such a truck, the Ford Ranger sold here well for a long time, even as ancient as it was...
  5. A pickup version of the Countryman or Clubman could be an interesting plot twist for Mini. The original Mini had a pickup version in the 60s.
  6. The Dodge brand has the performance image, the minivan could be branded either as a Chrysler or Dodge w/ a few changes. The Journey isn't long for this world and seems redundant w/ Jeep crossovers. I like the 300, but I don't know if they can maintain a brand with only 1-2 models long term....
  7. So is the Jeep pickup going to be 4dr only or will they offer a 2dr also...one or two bed lengths? Going to be interesting to see what they actually bring to market.
  8. Photobucket is a joke...I've been happy w/ Fotki, only like $30/year.
  9. They apparently won't have anything w/ 390hp...they have ranges and gaps between them. Or they can go back and fill in the gaps with 57, 58 etc.
  10. Sounds like they are sort of copying Tesla, which has the Model S 60, 70, 75, etc for kWh.. Why not just randomize the numbers---maybe 50 is the lowest, 30 is the highest, and something in the middle might be 80. Keep people guessing..
  11. oh well....onward through the fog with FCA...
  12. Back in '12 I took the '00 DTS into the neighborhood Cadillac dealer for some repairs, and was pleasantly surprised that even with a 12 yr old car that I didn't buy from them, they gave me a CTS as a loaner..
  13. I have no interest in reproducing myself, but I do think that only the most well educated and those that can afford it should reproduce..no point in reproducing if you can't afford it. Kids are very expensive and a huge responsibility.
  14. Remember, it's your responsibility to spay and neuter...help prevent overpopulation...
  15. Maybe in your reality, but I don't think Tesla owners think that way... the real world isn't all an Amish paradise..
  16. If it's crossover based, sounds like it may be like the Ridgeline.
  17. Seems pretty light all things considered...only about 50 pounds more than the E39 M5, which some consider the gold standard for BMW sports sedan driving experience..
  18. It is funny after the Banglized styling of the E60 generation how much the F10 and now this new G30 generation resemble the classic E39 in profile.
  19. They did do a V10 M5 two generations back.. the in-wheel hub motor thing is just fantasy at this point, no one is producing cars with them yet...a hybrid version would confuse the M performance message.
  20. Meh.. VW has been talking about a bus revival for at least 20 years...I'll believe it when I see it.
  21. Would make a great range topper for Maybach, competing against the big Bentley and Roller convertibles. Love the wheels and rear shape..
  22. Maybe Great Wall could sell their compact Wingle pickups as Rams in the US...'Ram Wingle' sounds like a badass name, right? http://www.gwm-global.com/all-vehicles.html?ModelCategory=Pickup
  23. Found this today--Great Wall eyes FCA bid http://www.bbc.com/news/business-40998235
  24. Is this the car that has a platform and engineering shared w/ Toyota/Lexus? (the rumored new Supra, etc).
