  1. I'd need a completely different pace of life to live there..... but I need a completely different pace of life to live here.... so 6 of one, half dozen of the other.
  2. I keep my eyes on those K900s also. For the price you can pick them up at, they are a comfort cruiser lover's dream.
  3. I'm sure it caused a burning sensation in his fingers to type it.
  4. I am surprised / not surprised at the Niro's performance. I'm surprised it took off so quickly for an unknown name with little marketing, but I'm not surprised because it is a really good product for the price and target market. And as far as hitting the core segment out there... it's a largish compact with a "crossover" shape and it's a hybrid. With a starting price of $23k, it's no wonder it's turning into a knock-out hit.
  5. I think for people who don't care, car sharing, car subscriptions, and various schemes like that will increase. They'll take the place of the CamCordTima crowd. For the people who do care, there will still be the niche products out there.
  6. Well, now that we all know what you're doing in front of the computer all the time.... Maybe we can all chip in and buy you one of these..... http://amzn.to/2F10WxW
  7. I generally try to not to edit people's posts. I let people's dumb posts stand for all to see.
  8. Effortlessly? I beg to differ. It's going to take me hours of effort to replace the starter in my CRV.
  9. My 4 year old nephew is definitely going to be a Jeep Wrangler guy.
  10. You can still do it at other price levels as well. I picked that one because you can get Super Cruise on CT6
  11. With the weather we're having here lately, moving to Miami to be closer to my parents is looking very attractive.
  12. I mean more like an article. There have been articles downvoted before. Bobo's post is essentially an annual article that he puts together for us every year. Old's stuff usually just confuses me so I'm not ever sure whether to upvote, downvote, or do confused eyes.
  13. Well, for the same price, you also have the option of the CTS V-Sport Premium Luxury with the expensive paint and fancier leather seats. This is the overlap that Cadillac is trying to cure. XTS V-Sport Platinum - $72,090 CTS V-Sport Premium Luxury with white tri-coat and kona brown leather - $73,015 CT6 3.0TT Premium Luxury with Super Cruise - $73,290
  14. A gently used, certified pre-owned Bolt would be a steal for someone shopping the segment. That said, I think part of it also has to do with the way the tax credit is structured. If you lease, you get the full credit vis-a-vie the leasing company. If you buy, then you have to deal with submitting for the tax credit and possibly not being eligible for the full amount. I'm certain that is an aspect for leasing as well.
  15. That's way far north of where my parent live. You lived in Marathon? How did I not know that?
  16. How's this for crazy... a base XTS V-Sport Platinum (the only trim for V-Sport XTS now) and a CT6 3.0TT Premium Luxury with Super Cruise are right about the same price.
  17. That said... I have a problem with downvoting a post like the original one here. @bobo doesn't come around too often for reasons he put in the post, but he takes the time every year to put together one of these and he's done it for about a decade. It's like downvoting an article. Don't downvote something like that where someone obviously put some work into assembling... and certainly don't be inhospitable to someone who doesn't come here often.
  18. The problem is when people take it so personally. Down vote me all you like... I'll still sleep just as poorly as I always do.
  19. I want to go back to Miami.
  20. The Q5 is front wheel drive. The RX was flat and the NX was up. Volvo's FWD crossovers are selling well. Your argument is invalid.
  21. Should probably include the CTS and XTS as well. They straddle those MSRPs also.
