Lexus News: Lexus Adds the ES To Their Japan Lineup
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in Lexus
To me... this is another nail in the coffin of the GS. -
For both, it highly depends on which plant they come out of. VW's Chattanooga plant seems to do good work, every Passat I've driven has been very solid and well built. Their plant in Mexico, not as much.

They've been doing that for decades. The original Focus, the Contour, the final Cougar, even the current Fusion.

Automotive operating cash flow was up by $1.3 billion to $2.5 billion. Overall earnings per share diluted was $1.75.

I'll have to find and scan a prom photo of me, my girlfriend(!!), and my black '85 Toronado.

Glad that the overall feedback is positive. The prior theme was just the default theme that ships with the software.

Have you ever noticed it's almost always Japanese brands that are the ones driving without headlights on? Mostly Toyo/Lexus but some Nissans...

has there ever been a 10?

I'm split. On the GMC, I like the '19 better than the '18 though not by much. On the Chevy, I much prefer the '18 over the '19 as long as it is in Z71 trim with the body color fascia and lacking most of the chrome.
-
I'm back home now. I think 19 is the number of people shot, but only 8 or 9 dead.

We we're 3 blocks away from the shooting at a different synagogue. We're safe, still on lockdown at the moment.

Same thing for people who aren't as affluent.

I'll try to adjust the logo. It's one of those things that looks right on a computer and then squished on a phone or tablet.

I'm sure it's class leading over the GLA and X2. It's still too small for you.

No mention that I saw skimming the document

Me either. I thought they would run out of cash over the summer, but they seem to have just squeezed through to a profitable quarter. If they can maintain the momentum on the Model 3, they could actually make it.

The XT4 is a little vehicle inside.... cozy is the best word for it. It is not a family truckster.

Tesla reported Q3 2018 Earnings on Wednesday with revenue of $6.82 billion and a profit $417 million or $2.90 per share. Tesla's earnings per share widely out-paces analyst estimates of losses of 15 to 19 cents per share. Revenue on automotive production increased 158% year over year with a dramatic increase in sales during the summer of 2018 due to increased sales of the Model 3 sedan. Tesla also cites increased gross margins on the Model S and Model X due to increased efficiencies. The Model 3's margin grew to above 20% while production rate increased and manufacturing costs dropped. Telsa is now moving an average of 4,300 Model 3s off the assembly line per week. Tesla did not change their overall guidance for the year and production goals remain at 100,000 Model S and Model X units for 2018. Tesla Report attached (PDF) - TSLA 3Q18 Update Letter
