So 3rd row seats are standard on Tahoes? Would have thought they would have been optional, a waste of space for those that don't need them..

Wrap around and do Z-, X-, Y- class... IIRC, I read they plan to have a different naming scheme/subbrand for EVs.- 41 replies

Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in SMART
They could make Smart an all-EV family car brand...small sedan, hatchback, and CUV...a tiny 2 seater just limits the sales potential. They definitely haven't built the brand to it's potential.- 41 replies

True, UConnect has been improved and the older systems can only upgrade to a certain level...Apple Car Play would be nice, but I live without it.- 25 replies

(now what passes for fashion in my wardrobe are t-shirts and polos from long-gone tech companies and past tech conferences..now those are cool IMO...)- 44 replies

Fiat News: Rumorpile: Chinese Automakers Are Interested In FCA
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Fiat
And others... the 3 steel plants in Cleveland (less than 10 miles from me) are owned by ArcelorMittal, a multinational of European and Indian origin... never saw anything like that in Arizona or Colorado, neat to drive by them, reminds me of as a kid living in Steubenville seeing the mills along the Ohio River and going to Pittsburgh...- 32 replies

Well, a lot of people put down deposits on the Tesla 3 (an EV compact). (the Smart is more of a sub-sub compact or Kei car)- 41 replies

Fiat News: Rumorpile: Chinese Automakers Are Interested In FCA
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Fiat
Interesting...there is some plausibility to a Chinese company that has no presence here buying parts of FCA, seems more likely than an existing US market automaker that would have too much overlap. I couldn't see GM, Ford, the German big 3, or any of the Japanese or Korean car makers interested in FCA--they already have existing product lines that likely wouldn't be helped by adding Jeep or Ram. Maybe PSA? Would give them a footprint in NA... I'd like to see CDJR return to US-based ownership, but can't see how that would happen...things didn't go so well under Cerebus...- 32 replies

The 6th gen Camaro has side windows even smaller than the 5th gen, I think..the chopped top look is so impractical...and the grille is oversized and juvenile--looks like it is a large fish trying to swallow smaller fish..painfully ugly plastic cheese front end, as bad as the predator shit from Lexus, IMO.. The Camaro may be a great performer, but the styling is dreadful, IMO.

Though angled, the Audi lights resemble the Chrysler 300, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Rolls Royce lights...which is funny how those 3 all have similar toilet handle shapes.

The funny thing is they all had the same headlights...sealed beam round bulbs. Not much individuality after all.

Only if they are brown wagons w/ manuals. (it's been written that the auto journalist's unicorn is a brown diesel manual wagon). -

BMW News: What Is In BMW's Future Product Pipeline?
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in BMW
The 3 series has become too expensive as an entry-level lux sedan, and the 2 series has been 2drs only...so it makes sense to have an entry level sedan. Though the X1 will probably outsell it.- 44 replies
