  1. I like the larger V90...I think I'd be very happy with one of these and living in New England. Love the blue.
  2. I didn’t realize there was a car in that pic until you mentioned it. Had to zoom in, looks like a ‘66-67 Continental. ‘68 moved the parking lights out of the bumper to the fender corners.
  3. $479.38. Instead of rechroming, how about plasti dipping all the interior brightwork in matte black?
  4. I thought that also...but the taillights threw me, only looked at pics of '39-41 Olds..but going back a year further, I see those taillights on the '38 Olds. '37 had them also.
  5. Something from around 1938-1941, going by the bulbous shape and headlight placement. Can't read the badge on the rear. Interesting high mounted taillights.
  6. Nice..I could see myself with a V90..love the interior and exterior design..
  7. I like what Genesis has been doing with interiors...like the colors in these...
  8. Nice. Very normal looking. The side contours and profile remind me of the current Escape.
  9. I haven't seen any cutaway pics of the Rivian, but I wonder how much height does the skateboard/battery pack take up of the floor? I wonder how the floor to roof distance compares to a BOF design like the Tahoe or a unibody like the Durango... Edit--found a cutaway pic of the R1S..looks like it has a flat floor.
  10. Overall length only affects the rear cargo area. Wheelbase is more important for interior space and how the interior is situated within the wheelbase.
  11. Length is meaningless since it includes overhangs, it's the interior space within the wheelbase that really matters..the Rivian has a 5 inch longer wheelbase than the Tahoe. But is smaller inside, it sounds like.
  12. I couldn't care less about the 50s, but as recent as the 80s-90s there were a lot more interior color choices in mainstream cars, not just luxury cars. Lots of red interiors then also. My '86 Mustang LX had a red interior...
  13. A lot of it is context also...in a daily driver sedan or SUV I want a light interior (not gray). In a sports car, my ideal is a two-tone like black and red.
  14. I like these Lincoln Aviator interiors..some dark trim, but lots of light.. This Cadillac XT5 interior isn't bad either. Light interior w/ a big sunroof would be optimal. (I like lots of light in a climate w/ a lot of cloudy days).
  15. Yeah, that lime green is gross...like athletic wear or something. I do like the cranberry red and black two tone option.
  16. I didn’t say anything about price, not a factor. I was comparing dimensions. Seems like Rivian is more like a 3 row midsize SUV than a full size. No one is going to cross shop a Rivian with a Tahoe either. An EV customer wouldn’t be considering ICE products.
  17. Lincoln has a nice selection of interior color choices.
  18. Seems like GM really cheaps out on interior color choices unless you spring for an Cadillac higher trim or Corvette...too many blah black and dark gray cave interiors..
  19. Back on topic, it does seem the mainstream makers are getting to the point of normalizing EV design rather than making them weird to be different and stand out. It will be interesting to see how the production Chevy EVs look.
  20. Nah..I usually drive a couple miles every week.
  21. Nothing... and he compared the truck version wheelbase w an SUV..invalid comparison. The R1S has a 5 inch longer wheelbase than the Tahoe, 2 inches longer than the Durango.
  22. The Rivian R1S SUV outside dimensions are very similar to the Durango. Probably a better size comparison than the Tahoe.
  23. Nice, but way too dark and gloomy.
  24. GMC seems to have a very limited color palette inside and out...interiors in black or dark gray....barf.
