Buick News: Buick LaCrosse Goes Upscale With Avenir
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
At least on the Avenir trims, there are actual hardware upgrades. Both the Enclave and Lacrosse get upgraded electronic suspensions. -
No... the larger Escalade has the better feel driving around. The GLS may stop faster, but that's about it. And yes... the Escalade has a larger feel inside.

I'm waiting until the CPO CT6 PHEVs are widely available.

Editors and Premium subscribers get 50. You have some odd extra groups that don't really apply to this board anymore. I've fixed it for now for you, but I still need to clean up your account a little bit.

Great to hear. Hopefully you've turned ad-blocker back off

Bumped everyone up to 25. I had to keep a stricter limit before when there was abuse of the system. They don't feel at all close when behind the wheel.

Buick News: Buick LaCrosse Goes Upscale With Avenir
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in Buick
I just think the prior models were more striking. -
No, EVs won't drop below ICEs... but ICE pricing will be nudged upwards providing the same effect.

Afterthoughts: What's the Right Size Vehicle?
Drew Dowdell replied to William Maley's topic in Opinion
I have never been into sports cars. My parents always bought obscure shitboxes growing up, Fiat Wagon, VW Type III Squareback, Subaru GL Wagon, Dodge Colt Vista Wagon. I was enamored by the big GM land yachts of the time because they had power windows, power antenna, air conditioning, and doors that sounded like a bank vault. The Cadillac Seville and Eldorado looks like something old-school movie stars from the '30s might drive today (today being 1983). The fascination stuck, and here I am today,- 75 replies

The GLS is a luxury Dodge Durango. 2018 Dodge Durango Spec Height 70.9 in. Width 75.8 in. Length 201.2 in.

I found the issue and fixed it. Because we have several hundred sub-forums, there is no easy way to check each and every one. If you encounter it again, just send me a PM and I'll fix it.

I have applied a potential fix. Please let me know how it works.

Already happened in the CR-V. The Encore had a damaged and clogged Catalytic converter replaced under warranty over the summer. If I lived in a different location but with the same work situation, I would absolutely switch over to an EV as soon as one was built that I liked the looks of. I still want my luxury goodies. If I were buying today, I'd probably aim for an ELR because I can't afford a CT6 PHEV. But Albert would never let me get something impractical like that.

I've been in my 60s since I was 5 years old... at least in regards to my taste in cars. These were my first loves as a kid- 75 replies

October 2017: General Motors Co.

eGolf is limited production. Nissan builds every Leaf they can build. That's the difference.- 58 replies

You should have access to post there. I'll check what's up with that in the morning. Please understand that not every bug is a slight against you personally. Just pm me and I'll take care of it.

Exactly... No one here has said that it is as completely easy as owning a gasoline car. I personally have stated that owning an EV requires changing one's thinking about how and when one fills up. Changing a way of thinking is clearly a challenge for some people, and thus makes it not as easy as going to a gas station.

No one here has made that claim. The most any of us have claimed is that it is getting easier than before at a steady rate.
